Would love to see us defend for our lives like Australia did this afternoon - team spirit, team were organised, physical strength and willing to put their body on the line to stop a try.
Hopefully they see that and take it on board - no turning your backs on shots etc

Missing the EPL!

We're Australia playing football today?

11 Oct 2015 08:28:22
Is there another sport apart from football?

Jeez, nobody tells me anything.

11 Oct 2015 08:57:13
What another sport dags? That's blasphemy

11 Oct 2015 09:29:54
Yes there is a similar game played in the states, slightly less technical and the quality isn't as good but it's great for English players to retire and double the bank balance
I think they call it soccer but it's pronounced sack-coor over there

Lol Gents :-)

I watched that game actually ref was ridiculous they were picking up the ball full time he missed it all. Funny though kinda reminded of a tony pulis stoke game ;)

UBI


Not sure how you can say that far too early......just a reminder to you. How did we get on at home to Liverpool???

Look how poor everyone said Fergies squad was when they last won the title.

Players react to managers, Klopp will get more out of those than BR did.

{Ed025's Note - from the united site "you cant polish a turd"...very apt.. :)

10 Oct 2015 13:11:57
Ed if Manchester United can win the league witj cleverly nani and evans then I'm sure we'll do just fine.

{Ed025's Note - its a fair point reet..

10 Oct 2015 13:32:54
Ed in fergies last season he polished lots of turds, in fact you could argue that fergie was a master turd polisher. Every time he stroked his hand down one of those stinking turds a genie popped out

{Ed025's Note - im trying to eat my dinner here growbun.. :)

10 Oct 2015 13:37:49
Ok joelene lescott, Carlos tevez and ronaldiniho

Some good looking chaps there that should take your mind off the turd rubbing

10 Oct 2015 13:41:18
Oh and I forgot about our very own Martin keown

10 Oct 2015 14:05:23
Ed025,

But they did say you could roll a turd in glitter! :-)

{Ed025's Note - i know red dog...that made me smile mate.. :)

West Ham beat us at home Ban, so is that them finishing top 4 as well then? I'm talking about their squad, not how they performed in one game. They will not finish top 4, not guna happen.

10 Oct 2015 14:36:14
Liverpool have far to many Europa league standard players to get anywhere close to winning the league or as they stand realistically break into the top 4.
Their heavy on OK players but extremely light on thge real quality needed to carry those OK players anywhere beyond 5th.
Betenke and Lallana are great examples of an OK player brought in at top player money but barely able to carry them self's let alone any one else, Klopp will change this situation by building a side where Benteke Lallana Milner ( like at city) will become the supporting cast not the stars of the show.
Klopp is great for the premier league because he's a very decent respectful funny bloke who knows what he's doing as a Football manager and will raise the criteria needed to qualify for the CL which in turn will make those 3 clubs who do make it will be better equipped to actually challenge in that competition once their there.

10 Oct 2015 15:11:38
Agree with that G62, looking forward to seeing Klopp, think he will be good value. But as we've both said, current squad ain't good enough. How many players do they have that you would put in the 'world class' bracket? I would say zero.

10 Oct 2015 21:01:06
To me Coutinho and Sturridge would seriously compete for a place in our team plus I'd swap Henderson Milner Lucas for Artetta Flamini and Rosicky double quick but that's it.
Olly is now our second chioce striker behind Theo but Giroud is stil a much better player than Benteke.
Klopp has a lot to do but by next season he will be well on the way to doing it.

11 Oct 2015 00:54:08
Look UG although I would not put money on Liverpool getting in the top four, I would suggest the fact that you cannot name a top class player or one that could potentially shine under klopp as daft. How many world class players do we have. And by world class I mean players that would get into a world squad of say 21!? Sanchez perhaps Ozil when he's on it? Liverpool nearly and should have won the leauge a few years back a damn site closer than we have seen in a decade . I know your just 'saying' but it really is early days

11 Oct 2015 08:14:55
I would agree grow that we have 2 world class players. But they have none. You need those special players to make the difference. And that's why they almost won the league, because they had Suarez. Look what happened to them since he left. It's my opinion mate, regardless of how many games have been played, I don't think there is enough talent in the squad to finish top 4. Let's see if I'm proved wrong.

11 Oct 2015 09:00:57
Like I say if I wouldn't put money on it because I think it probably is to far but I'd love them to get fourth over United or Chelsea

{Ed025's Note - i would hate it grow.. :)

If Klopp did clinch 4th this season ( big big ask ) it would be bye bye LVG mourinho Pelgrini or Wenger for certain, any team making way for Liverpool this season would have well under achieved and deserves to be sacked.
