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


How about his for the absolute zenith of WHUM?

Get ready with your sick bag.

After seeing Harvey Elliot lose both legs to that landmine, Salah and Klopp are both traumatised, and in need of therapy.

Yeah right, so badly affected that they go out and rip Palace a new one today.


We had all this after Van Dijk got injured, Wijnaldum came out and said some players were finding it difficult to sleep after the incident.
 

Thiago: you wont see him again for months.

This lot are going see their failure in the market place and decision to extend the contracts of senior players explode in their faces.

It would appear like that to you HongKong, although it's pretty much spot on.

They won't though.

Similar happening to us at the moment with our wasteful transfers and big contracts but they always come out smelling of roses.

The devil's club.
 

Godfrey and Mina as well.

Was absurd doing Merseyside 11's after 4 games.

Godfrey and Mina (and Digne for that matter) dont become bad players in one game though do they?

And why is it absurd to have a discussion topic 4 games (the season is 5 games in at that point)?

Had Matip swapped for Mina today, I doubt much changes. If he played out of position like Godfrey did, he probably gets far more exposed than even Godfrey did, as he is extremely slow and unable to turn.

But yes, as you say it's a bit odd making such comparisons, except when you use one game as evidence to make an assertion. When Robertson is in the squad of the world champions on the international level, he can have a claim to be superior to Digne. All the while he gets given the run around by part timers from Israel or Cyprus or whoever else turn them over, I'll reserve judgement.
 
Strap yourselves in boys and girls - it's clear Satan's back in bed with them after that amazing 3-0 victory against all odds today.

Prophet angry citrus has called it wrong it would seem.

How palace didn't get a pen from the lad who works in the kebab shops challenge on benteke is just mind boggling - changes the entire match, just mental. Like the tackle on Richy Vs Burnley and the gray non-decision today which were both a joke - the vermin would have got those calls all day, every day.
 
So now from that post we have to pick a Merseyside 11 based on nationality now and what their country has won. :drunk:

This is what happens when combined 11's get talked about, it gets more and more and more bizarre.

I mean we dont have to do anything. But when evaluating performance it's certainly worth considering isnt it? We are all bias about our teams performance, so taking player outside of that context seems to make sense. If a player is so good, it might be worth asking why he gets the run around against footballing heavyweights like Aleksei Ianov and Russia.

Conversely if a play wins international trophies, I'd suggest it's quite a good indicator that player is good. Not perfect of course, but a worthwhile indicator.

I'll just add this, for a guy who seems to resent making combined 11s, you do seem to be doing a lot of it over the last few days. Maybe it's best just to say you have no opinion on the matter if you dont think they have validity 4/5/6 games in?

Politely though, you seem to make some quite spurious comments on the topic, then get challenged, then say you dont want to talk about it. It may be best just not to mention it in the 1st instance?
