It was when things started unraveling at dortmund, the guys unhinged

But is that the linesman? 4th official? And what was the event in the game that caused it? I assume he got banned? (Sorry for all the questions, I'm just too lazy to look it up for myself)

Seems logical to pass off a caucasian Belgian cyclist as a black Dutch footballer

For the undiscerning among you, the rainbow bands on his ankle are because he won the World Championships, which awards the winner with the rainbow jersey for the next year.

If anyone knows men’s legs it’s our very own @Bruce Wayne ......

I'm not sure if Asthma is a mitigating factor for an ACL. For his sake I genuinely hope it's not.

Me neither,, but for a small squad there are a large amount of registered asthmatics in it, not that I'm saying there is undue influence or performance enhancement from using asthma medications such as the ones cyclists use, no siree, I would never consider how a beaten up old banger like Milner could run as much for 90 minutes, no, not me...

I mean, just listen to this. Listen to their fans from 0:30 onwards.

Don’t ever, EVER let these mutants try and take the moral high ground over anything.

I expect in the next few days a charity single to be released. A phalanx of Sky, BBC, BT, assorted other TV reporters, the entire staff of the Echo, lickspittle journalists from the 'quality' papers, Talk sport foghorns all in a darkened studio, candles lit, swaying in time to Candle in the Wind.
A possible B side : Knockin' on Heaven's Door.

Has anyone else noticed that Thiago is bottling another game for them and wanting to sit it out?

Wut? What did he say

Fake news.

He died on Saturday didn’t he?

Only his right leg died apparently......

4th official in a champions league game, i think it was just a decision from the ref he disagreed With

Can see it both ways. It’s horrible for him as a player, and the impact it will have on his career. On the other hand he’s a multi millionaire by 30, he’s done nothing for work except kick a ball around, and he’ll have medical care most can only dream of to sort his knee. The most likely outcome is he’ll play again and retire a very rich man having done what most of us would chop our own leg off for. When people are struggling to make ends meet, living with long term pain from poorly treated injuries, or dying in a pandemic there really does need to be more rational perspective about a sportsman incurring a sports injury.

Depleted? Seriously? Is his knee contagious?

I never thought you could get more hypochloritical than gerrard, but klopp is. An utter fraud, what is wrong with him? Just say no comment, lambasts the reports for asking him about the derby, any other manager says "no comment, I'm focusing on the next game". We're missing Richarlison for 3 games, that'll be worse than the two games or whatever thiago misses, so there's justice, unlike what he's claiming. He's so blinkered if he feels they did nothing wrong.
