ECHO Comment: "Fears of Witch-hunt Against Liverpool FC" part 3

[davek]

Hazards shot to pieces.

He's been rushed back from injury too often.

Apparently he's back and almost there again. He might feature off the bench against Barcelona.

He's rushed out to KFC too often

He could be like a whale and still destroy that pitiful Liverpool defence.

Didn't know Alexander-Arnold was keen on golf.

Sickening aren’t they, going on about racism when their actions condoned it and possibly invited it to fester.
And for what, because Suarez was a boss player.
The face on Patrice Evra when he went back there and got booed was one of the saddest things I’ve ever seen. The look of despair on his face almost had me in tears.

I hope TAA and Keita are ok, must be horrible for them.
When will laws change so these dogs are put in prison and the key thrown away.

Don't do it to yourself until they are out lad.

The RS mutants will not be able to help themselves next Wednesday.

Expect intimidation, and vandalism of Real's coach prior to the game.

Let's hope so. Every time they repeatedly shame themselves by acting like animals, the media love-in looks more and more pathetic.

The RS Merseyside police chief best be robust with them this time around, the massive shithouse

A great post mate, but we banned the word 'robust' on here ages ago.

But that would be doing his job. He only does his job when it comes to treating blues like criminals on derby day

Social media abuse: Trent Alexander-Arnold, Naby Keita and Sadio Mane receive racist emojis on Instagram

Liverpool say racist abuse on social media "cannot be allowed to continue" after Trent Alexander-Arnold, Naby Keita and Sadio Mane are targeted.

Social media abuse: Trent Alexander-Arnold and Naby Keita receive racist emojis on Instagram​

They really are a weird bunch aren't they? One minute they are running an embaressing campaign to make out Arnold is some undroppable world class full back. The next they are racially abusing him for making more costly mistakes.

I sort of think one leads to the other. They have a completely unrealistic expectation of their players, and when they almosyt inevitably fail to live up to it, it just brings out the inner racist in most of them (or sexist/homophobe) any sort of bigot really.

Surely they'd be a lot happier not veering from- he's a world class right back to- racist abuse in 24 hours? Like appreciate he's a talented decent young right back, who makes mistakes but also delivers a good cross. He's trying his best, and he certainly doesn't deserve racial abuse just because he can't live up to the ludicrous pedastal they've stuck him on.

“I know it’s now a big story, I don’t like it any more to be honest. He wasn’t the only one,” he told BT Sport after the game.

“When we need Naby in the game, he’s really a part of playing football and stuff like this.

“It was tactical, but I could have done a few more changes in that moment. Thank god I didn’t, but it’s just that.”


If he didn't want a big story he shouldn't have subbed him with 3 minutes to go to HT and then left him on the bench second half saying he was injured.

I get the feeling this feller has lost the dressing room.

He's back to being really weird in press conferences again, which is good. They sort of steadied themselves a bit when he stopped playing the clown, and I almost felt he might have been getting through his tempter tantrums he was having.

I have a theory on the above though. I reckon he could see he'd been completely out thought by Zidane (again) and knew the pressure would beon him, so thought he could sell someone else down the bus and quickly whipped Keita off to be the scapegoat. If it was tactical why not wait 2 minutes until half time? Looks like he wanted to create a different narrative and offer a scapegoat to me.

That he's decided to do it in their biggest game of the season is very odd. It looks to me like he's had the thought- I'm under a lot of scrutiny here, and panicked and quickly thought how could he change the narrative.

They're gone. Look at the state of them. If this was Fulham holding a 3-1 1st leg lead over them I'd back Fulham to get the toe over the line with ease.

That is a team coming to the end of its shelf life.
