I can’t think of another club who would go to the Nou Camp, lose 3-0 (could have been more) have a couple of shots on target but probably only one gilt edged chance (which came from a Barca mistake clearing one of their hoofs), and then send their 20 year old full back who has done nothing in the game out to a press conference to tell the worlds media how they dominated Barca at the Nou Camp. Like who at the club thought that was a good idea?
That whole club for me was summed up by their CEO tweeting about ‘dominating europe’ and ‘We are liverpool’ in what should have been an apology for wreaking havoc on yet another European City. Their whole club from top to bottom reeks of arrogance and have ingrained that as their culture through the propagation of propaganda reinforcing this as the party line not to be crossed by an employee or any media acolyte associated with the club.
It’s pure self importance based on a period of success (and it was a great success) 30 years ago. Nobody has ever denied them having that success, it’s the fact they act like it’s their right. It’s embarrassing and they can’t see it, nor will they ever. It’s a cult, a real functioning cult
Utd have dominated British football for the past 20 years, they haven’t acted a millionth of the way the RS have, yet they’d have more of a claim with current history on their side
The issue will never go away as the media is, and will continue, to push the narrative that they’re the greatest thing to grace these isles. Everything the club does which is negative gets swept under the carpet and anything negative gets said about the club is pushed.
