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

[blueconverse]

Its as if getting a team to press 100 miles an hour every game for 90 mins can cause injuries.

 

[degsy]

Imagine my shock that injury prone players get injured. He's terrible anyway so it's probably done them a favour.

Somebody, or probably 2 or 3 somebodies are really to bunk up their prices when Klopp comes calling in Jan

 

[Black Belt Jones]

Difficult to just turn it on on match day with such an approach. A lot of football's habit based isn't it.

It is yeah - we saw that here with Martinez where he took 50% of this approach - the cancelling training bit. The play with infernal intensity bit didn't happen.

IDK what his secret is to get them singing on match day, but all modern athletic training is periodised AFAIK. Big base of low intensity with smaller amounts of sickeningly hard interval work. Training quite hard all the time is old school, out of date, and causes injury - even relics like Moyesosaurus and Samadocus will know that and train accordingly.

 

[degsy]

Cant understand how that wasn't a pen.

VAR mate its even shight for them...only on the odd occasion though.

 

[KaiserEFC]

Players get injured, sometimes they even get really bad injuries and teams have injury crises. They and the media need to get over it.

Looks like Jordan's been given leave of absence from England to clear the rest of Melwood out...

The media would know this if they only looked at any other club.

there will be some lips being licked alright.

 

[TangerineToffee]

Let's just say that since his City days he has bulked up significantly and is faster than he was in his supposed prime...

Look at Milners body structure. Looks like the anabolic steroid master of the universe. See shapes like him around the gyms of the world. You will have to wait for them to open again to have a peek lol

 

[tommytowne]

I've just forced myself to listen to another BBC pewkfest related to RS. Five Live broadcaster with the name I cant pronounce fawning over them with the author of a book I didn't know existed, Believe Us. Oh my fecking word, the worst kiss ass interview/advertisement I've heard in a long while. The fact that me hitherto not being aware of the book, and now knowing about it shows it as a pure marketing exercise.
Does the nations broadcaster have no shame?

Mr Salbutinol and Mr Ventolin for starters.

 

[davek]

Would assume he does the opposite - total de-load of training, low intensity kickabouts, to enable massive intensity on matchday.

They play simple football AFAIK, with world class players, so what would training hard accomplish?

All of the players Ive read who describe the training they do use the word "intense". It's high tempo stuff in training games and the individual training they get.

Problem with the doped-to-their-gills hypothesis is that everyone in the prem would have to be doing it, with large scale tacit acceptance from those in charge (tacit acceptance from the fans is a given). Like Lance Armstrong was a prominent cheat in an ocean of cheats - the entire peloton was on EPO late nineties and it was fully endorsed by all teams and tacitly accepted by the UCI.
Given the testing regime in prem football is actually half-decent, seems unlikely one club could go out on a limb here.

Weight loss drugs could be massive in football and seem easier to blur into the grey area of permitted medications. I reckon we'd all be surprised if we stood next to some of these centre half or centre forward 'beasts.' Prob a lot slimmer and slighter than you think.

Brighton are apparently asking for 50m for that White. It will be more now. They will probably have to sell Salah to fund it.

 

[catcherintherye]

Hmmm Thiago has just come from a similar club, who got Goretska from screech to Arnie in about 6 months so he's already conditioned. Although he has had quite a few injuries the last few years.

Anyway if they buy an expensive CB in Jan, who is leaving to fund it?

He will really struggle to adapt to Klopp's style, and already is. As for your 2nd option, Salah.
