Premier league clubs to vote on scrapping var for next season . what do you think.

15 May 2024 18:13:33
On the fence but think the automatic offside tech should still be implemented as planned.

Agree3

15 May 2024 18:18:39
I really hope so. It hasn’t enhanced the game at all.

Agree9

15 May 2024 18:22:56
I would just go for semi automatic offside and goal technology and let the rest be judged by referee on the ground.

Agree7

15 May 2024 18:34:23
VAR hasn't worked because the people implementing it aren't up to scratch. They can't make consistent decisions, even with video replays.

Scrapping it won't reduce the number of "wtf was he thinking? " moments, Webb will just be able to say 'the ref didn't see it' when he's on Sky Sports.

Agree7

15 May 2024 18:35:17
VAR has taken the enjoyment out of the game . and the Refs have gone worse too .

Agree6

15 May 2024 18:38:13
F. k it off. To put it nicely or get some people who haven't been bought with money to run in properly.

Agree4

15 May 2024 18:57:10
Bin it off. Fair play to wolves for having the balls to stand up.

Agree8

15 May 2024 19:00:09
Needs a rugby league type system. Yes they have the odd mistake but nowhere near the same amount.

The fans aren't constantly moaning about bad calls and the refs are respected by players. I honestly don't know why it's so difficult to get right with a bit of common sense.

Agree4

15 May 2024 19:00:56
W automated offsides it serves no purpose. The play acting has gone off the scale since VAR came in. It won't solve that issue completely but the game will be much better without it. There will be some wrong decisions throughout the season like there used to be but for me refs get more wrong w VAR than they ever did without it. Bin it and give us back the passion of football that we've been missing.

Agree2

15 May 2024 19:02:56
Exactly, Something Red and that is what people are missing. The PGMOL did NOT want VAR to be implemented to begin with as it would take away some of their power over games that keep them famous in the media. So they implemented it in a way to cause chaos and turn people off to the point that now, it could be voted out hence, power is back to Webbo and his bros. Mission Accomplished, me thinks!

Agree5

15 May 2024 19:07:10
Successfully sabotaged by the PGMOL with utterly horrendous implementation .

Self preservation by PGMOL.

Agree9

15 May 2024 19:16:47
The automated offside will be in i think so I don't see the need for it anymore, if they could use it properly might be a different story.

Agree0

15 May 2024 19:31:07
My personal view beyond binning it off is that it should be like cricket, each manager having two appeals each half, lose the appeal if VAR says the decision made by the ref is right and keep it of proven wrong. Goal line decisions being the only thing automatic and VAR being operated by experts who aren’t referees.

Agree1

15 May 2024 19:32:00
Ron, Oli, personally I wouldn't go as far as suggesting they deliberately sabotaged it (although I can understand that point of view), I think it's just simple incompetence, followed up with a dose of ass covering from Webb when he's talking to Michael Owen on Monday nights.

It's abundantly clear that Webb is quite happy to talk his way out of nearly any ref's decision, no matter how inconsistent with previous ones. So I don't think the presence or lack thereof of VAR will make a difference to him and the PGMOL.

Agree1

15 May 2024 19:35:10
How long before everyone wants it’s back when there is a terrible decision week one?

I stand by the fact that VAR isn’t the issue, it’s how it’s implemented.

They should be mic’d up, the crowd being in the dark isn’t good for the game. Ideally they’d be screens but not sure that’s viable in most grounds.

Stop slow mo replays, it should be full speed only. Final call with the ref.

And keep with the rollout of semi automated offsides which fixes its biggest problem of offsides (hopefully! ) .

Long term I’d have it independent from PGMOL and effectively have two teams. I think there is still an element of not wanting to say a ref called it wrong.

Agree7

15 May 2024 22:47:12
WYred, you better believe that the same people saying for ages that VAR should be scrapped will be some of the same people screaming for it to return when they realize that things were actually NOT better without it. We will all be here to see it happen.

Agree3

15 May 2024 22:53:48
There is nothing wrong with VAR, at least from a technical perspective.

The basic problem is the people applying the technology are prone to human error and once they get a decision wrong it undermines both the trust of the fans in not only VAR but also the match officials .

It has happened far too many times. VAR, as it currently stands should be withdrawn, ‘fixed’ in terms of the human component in whatever way that may be, and them gradually re-introduced on an incremental basis - national leagues first, then Leagues 1 and 2 and then PL and Championship.

There’s also work needed around who triggers the VAR review and under what circumstances and who (or what) acts as QA to verify the VAR decision - maybe something along the lines of RL or RU where the referee provides an on-field decision which stands if VAR checking is inconclusive or in doubt.

Agree0

15 May 2024 23:06:34
VAR, theoretically, a brilliant tool.

Alas, unfortunately managed by tools.

Agree4

15 May 2024 23:25:59
The technology has glitches but the main issue with VAR is the people who are using the technology.

They have made some terrible mistakes and they are not showing signs of significant improvement

As it stands VAR has spoilt enjoyment for the fans and in its present guise it should be scrapped.

Agree1

16 May 2024 00:00:22
I'll take bad decisions before incidents being overanalysed and emotions being drained from the game.
No one watches a game to see the referee get every decision correct. We watch it to get us on our feet and losing ourselves even if for only a few seconds.
Sod right decisions 😂 and not every decision can be correct anyway.

Agree0

16 May 2024 00:03:09
gets more right than wrong.
need to fine tune the process and language around purpose of VAR to enahnce it.
caveman mentality to get rid of it because of the big mistakes. move forward and make it better. don't just go backwards.

Agree3

16 May 2024 00:13:34
Please end VAR now it's bloody awful.

Agree1

16 May 2024 01:33:14
absolutely no one will be thankful there is no VAR when there is goal after goal given or denied due to a an errant flag.

Agree2

16 May 2024 01:40:32
Scrap the lot, it was better beforehand. I aren't really bothered and will be ignorant to specifics. It was better before it was implemented, get rid of it.

Agree3

16 May 2024 06:22:09
Id get rid of it but also get rid of Webb and bring in the grim reaper Collina himself. Pay him whatever he wants for 3 years to sort out the refs and rescue the EPL. money worth spending imo.

Agree1

16 May 2024 07:50:11
Faith, Sometimes I used to behave like a caveman when we scored. Now I think 'hang on, how can this goal be ruled out? '
I could record games and watch them knowing the score and what happened and why but I'd sooner be a caveman for a couple of hours.
That's what football is for me when I watch it; especially Liverpool. It's a release.

Agree2

15 May 2024 14:37:54
Interested to see how linders gets on at his new gig. Wonder will the football be as drab as he pushed for us.

15 May 2024 14:58:40
Good luck to the man.

Agree8

15 May 2024 15:09:15
Good luck to him. Helped contribute to the success we’ve had over the past few years and never really understood quite a bit of the criticism he has taken on the boar, especially the strange stuff about it being some sort of a problem that he had the nerve to write a book.

Agree10

15 May 2024 15:26:03
I'm sure he's a nice enough fellow WDW. It's just all the interviews and radio shows and podcasts he went on were pretty jarring. He would take credit for things done in football already by other people.

Agree2

15 May 2024 16:06:54
Good luck to him.

Agree1

15 May 2024 16:44:59
Big Part of the success. YNWA pep.

Agree1

15 May 2024 16:45:47
Klopp has said slot is a good coach that’s good enough for me.

Agree1

15 May 2024 17:31:43
Posters really bought into the book nonsense, probably the same ones that wanted him as heir to Klopps throne😂😂.
Sure he’s maybe made the odd mistake, who hasn’t 🤷‍♂️. A lot of posters on here get sucked in by an editors throw away comment and thought it was a great idea.
Good luck to him, I think he’ll be a flop tho. Sometimes being a number 2 is ok.

Agree1

15 May 2024 17:34:34
He was part of the team that has bought us successes.

Good luck to him, hope he does well 👍🏼.

Agree1

15 May 2024 18:36:38
Good luck to him . He might even write another Book,

Agree0

15 May 2024 18:57:44
Good luck to him. Just hope he stays away from his typewriter.

Agree0

15 May 2024 19:04:07
Great for him. Time for talk is now officially over for him, thankfumlly. Now, we will see if his managerial reflexes work as good as his mouth.

Agree1

15 May 2024 20:44:04
Pep Lijnders: “10 years of the club and my boys don’t know anything else, they are Scousers. I owe this club everything. ”

Sounds like an awful guy.

Agree3

15 May 2024 21:09:23
He didn't write the book. He was approached by someone that works for the club, James Carroll, to help do it. Klopp also contributed towards it. If anything it was a club book that was compiled during the season we were going for the quad.
Whatever Lijnders' reasons for helping do it and whether they were right or wrong it's not true that he wrote the book or that he was working independently.

Agree1

15 May 2024 22:57:01
@JK23, sums it up nicely. As a person he seems pretty decent to me. As a football man he is arrogant in some respects but I’d argue that if you want to be / are a top performer arrogance (or self belief) would be an asset.

Agree0

15 May 2024 11:56:58
When Jurgen walked through the doors at Anfield, i just knew he was the right manager and i am distraught he is leaving . I do hope a statue is put up for him. He deserves it he really does.
I wish Jurgen and his family all the best and thank you from the bottom of my heart. YNWA.

15 May 2024 13:20:33
A bit rubbishty isn't it that he's leaving but I think it's the right time. Agree regarding the statue. More then anything I just hope he enjoys his time off and takes time to relax a little, he's put everything in and we can't ask for more than that.

Was one of them when he joined, I remember stopping the car to watch his first press conference and I also knew he'd do well with us, it was just that feeling wasn't it?

I can't say I have it right now but I do wish the new manager the very best of luck and I hope he has the support klopp had when he joined.

Agree8

15 May 2024 15:13:25
All things must pass.

He has been brilliant for the club and he has literally given all he can give.

Thank you and very best wishes for a happy and healthy future for him and his family wherever their journey leads.

Agree3

15 May 2024 16:00:17
What do we all think of Slot then to be our next Klopp, I’m not 100% sold on him yet but I’m willing to have my mind changed.

Agree3

15 May 2024 16:17:14
He should slot straight in.

Agree2

15 May 2024 18:10:59
I think if Slot does well he could actually strengthen Klopps legacy. It’d be similar to how Shanks set us up in the past.

Klopp has done wonders for us and the journey has been incredible but we move on to another chapter and see where it takes us.

Agree0

15 May 2024 18:33:58
It’s right to give him a fantastic send off but we can’t be too sentimental we need to look forwards now, and give Slot all our support.

Agree0

15 May 2024 18:41:14
I believe that Slot will be a great Coach for LFC, Klopp was massive, and was just amazing, but in the end he took too much on, and people left the club cos they could not work with him .
I really do wish him the Best .
but we have to move on too . this season was brilliant but but has not ended well .

Agree1

15 May 2024 19:09:04
Klopp is who I always wanted over Ancelloti at the time and thankfully, he proved me right cos he absolutely bombed at Bayern. Klopp was perfect for us and I knew we would improve under him and we did in that season he arrived.

We went up gears after that making the CL final and finishing in the top 4 and then, he turned us into Champions of NOWHERE to Champions of EVERYWHERE. The modern day Bill Shankly, me thinks.

Like everyone, it's time for him to go and leave the mantle to someone else to take us forward BUT most importantly, he kept his promise. He said he would NEVER leave us in a bad spot, something he could have done after last season. But he stayed and set us up well for Slot to come in and keep it moving. Honor and Dignity, Till The End!

Agree3

15 May 2024 20:04:01
Would have loved to have seen Klopp better supported by the owners, the man is a genius. Love him dearly.

Agree3

15 May 2024 21:07:28
Let Slot be Slot he doesn’t need to be the next Klopp. Any new manager coming in needs to be let do things his way and not be compared to Jurgen.

Agree2

15 May 2024 23:01:37
Slot isn’t the next Klopp. Klopp wasn’t the next Rodgers

If there is a need to judge, then they should be judged on their own skills and capability, and also the external circumstance that directly impact what they (can) do.

Agree1

15 May 2024 08:21:49
Defence is more of our problem than attack.

If we had two players like Rice and Saliba I suspect we would win more games by having to score less goals which would be the difference over a season to winning the title.

If that's right then we are literally just two players away from a proper title push.

Surely we can find one top notch DM and CB this summer.

15 May 2024 08:41:54
Having better players obviously helps but it won't solve the issues completely. Fixing how the team defends as a unit is far more effective. Even a prime Franco Baresi would struggle if the system isn't set up correctly.

Agree1

15 May 2024 08:44:32
I don't think Saliba would do much better in this system either. Apart from the past few matches, since we have effectively been out of the title race, VVD had been great this season. Konate is also a pretty good CB especially 1v1, and Quansah looks special. I don't think we need a CB as much. However, we would massively improve if we had a DM like Rodri, or Rice. While being good Endo lacks both pace and press-resistance, and Macca is simply wasted as a 6. Maybe Bajcetic can grow into that elite DM, but he would need time. However, he is someone I have immense trust in, and it would be interesting to see how Slot uses him in pre-season.

Agree4

15 May 2024 09:22:26
I agree. I know our strikers have had a bit of stick but they've been put under immediate pressure by our tendency to gift the first goal to pretty much every team we've played against.

We need a top class DM and a replacement for VVD at a minimum. Then we need to stop this daft tactic of having to chase every single game!

Agree3

15 May 2024 10:39:03
I think we need to move Trent and Macca out of the RB and DM roles. RW/ AM for Trent and CM/ AM for Macca. They get dribbled past far too easily and then people have to step out of position to cover for them which creates this knock on effect of pure carnage and everyone all over the place.

Quansah and Virgil are both very good CB's who win their individual duels more often than not but they're being dragged from pillar to post. Robertson and Endo are both good players even at 30 years old but we need to find younger solutions next season as they play in positions where a physical decline will be very noticeable. Bajcetic and Beck should be considered in pre-season but if they aren't good enough then signing a new LB and DM is a must.

I personally back Bajcetic to make the DM role his own and I think people are forgetting how good he was pre-injury. But also, maybe I'm over estimating his ability to bounce back from it and become 1st choice. I don't know enough about Beck so right now I'm thinking the priority for defence is a new LB until I've seen more of him. Bradley should be first choice RB next season without question and Quansah has to be a starter at CB. They're both too good for the bench.

The difference you would see by not having Macca and Trent getting absolutely trampled over dragging others out of position, would be massive. Quansah and Virgil is potentially a great partnership with better protection in front of them and down the sides of the defence.

Agree8

15 May 2024 10:46:15
1. Tactics
2. Defensive midfielder
3. Centreback
4. Left back
5. Right sided forward
6. Left sided forward
7. Backup goalkeeper
8. A repeat of Bruce Grobbelaar's liquid-based ceremony.

Agree2

15 May 2024 11:56:39
Thing is MK, TAA isn’t quick enough or skilful enough on the ball to be a right winger and he’s not a number 10 or attacking midfielder in a million years, trying to shoehorn him into the team just for the occasional long shot and Hollywood pass is to do so at the detriment of the team, as harsh as that sounds, I’m of the opinion that I can’t see where he fits in the starting line up going forward, so it is time to part ways.

Putting all our eggs in one basket with Bajcetic is a huge risk, and Endo doesn’t have the legs for a full season, so a top class defensive midfielder is needed. Just go back to the difference that Fabinho made when he signed.

Agree7

15 May 2024 12:37:42
Trent at RB, with occasional inversion would be my go to instead of the entire tactic seemingly centred on freeing Trent up to playmake. Watching him vs Spurs, it looked much better and simpler. He even showed he could defend Son in some tricky moments.

Trent's superpower is his long pass. It's by far and away the best in the world. Moving him forward would just make him an above average midfielder.

Selling the best long passer in the world who happens to be a Scouser and still in his mid-20s would be insane imo.

We'd be much better off just simplifying the tactics and his role in them.

Agree4

15 May 2024 15:14:33
Think we need a backup for Virg more than a replacement. Realistically who could we get for left CB that's better than him anyway? Van Dijk is not the problem, if he showed this seasons form I'd be happy to have him start for another 3 or 4 years. Lloyd Kelly on a free would have been a smart signing.

Agree0

{Ed002's Note - Lloyd Kelly will not move to simply be cover.}

15 May 2024 15:17:02
If we want a better defence we have to play Bradley at RB - he is just a better defender than TAA. We need Quansah to continue his upward trajectory and become a regular starter and we need to replace VVD with a younger left footed LCB. Virgil is the past and we need to look to the future.

Agree0

15 May 2024 15:27:29
Virg has had more partners than a call girl this year.

Agree0

{Ed077's Note - then sadly the call girl needs a change of profession.😂 or better "marketing" 🤣🤣

15 May 2024 15:31:42
WDW, I personally just want a good back up to replace Matip and reduce our reliance on Konate. I'm happy with Virgil and Quansah as the 1st choice pairing. I'd really like to see Van den Berg get a shot before we spend big on a replacement for Matip. If VdB wasn't already our player you'd be talking about at least a 30m transfer fee to get him after the season he's just had.

Agree2

15 May 2024 15:35:25
Who is better than Virg and attainable.

Vvd's form has dropped off the last month or so but so has everyones.

I had VVD as a front runner for player of the season with Mac a few weeks ago.

Endo is another shout but he didn't get into the team until Dec and then was away in Jan and had a good Feb.

Agree1

15 May 2024 15:46:51
I agree about Lloyd Kelly Ed, but even if we paid 60m on Ignacio for example he would be back up to Virg. Said Kelly because at least then we wouldn't have parted with a mountain of cash.

Agree0

{Ed002's Note - Inacio will also not be moving to be back up to anyone.}

15 May 2024 16:32:00
How many minutes has Baj played in the PL, playing DM?

Agree1

15 May 2024 16:47:38
Just stick with what we have now then seen as no half decent player wants to be backup to virg. Or maybe Van Den Berg will be brought back.

Agree0

15 May 2024 17:45:24
Irish in answer to that.

25 mins this season.

159 mins last season

All his other minutes came as right or left centre mid and right back.

Agree0

15 May 2024 17:47:22
Irish Rover, was about 1000 minutes of senior football in 22/ 23 season before he was ruled out with an adductor injury. In that period he was our best midfielder though.

I still have faith in him to come back. It will make or break him though. Elliott came back from worse and has never looked back. Some players don’t have the mentality to recover so that’s why I’d assess him in pre-season first.

Agree1

15 May 2024 18:09:39
Exactly that JK. I don’t dispute he played well in what was a horrible season but he hardly played at DM where everyone thinks he’s a shoe in 🤷‍♂️.

Agree1

15 May 2024 18:45:40
Macca is wasted at No6, we can all see that, and once Endo goes off, we concede even more goals .
Macca should be much further up the pitch,
and please make better use of our subs this coming season .

Agree0

15 May 2024 19:00:21
I'm with you Irish. Baj may well be the future DM but he's not ready yet so we need a top class one to play until he is. I think this is the one position where we need a 'ready to go' player, someone at their peak rather than someone with potential.

Agree1

15 May 2024 19:06:27
Context is important though, JK/ Irish.

Bajcetic only played 20 minutes off the bench at RB so that’s barely worth mentioning.

He played a further approx. 450 minutes off the side of a midfield 3, usually the left. That was across about 4 leagur starts and 1 CL start. From memory Fabinho was the DM in all of these games I think.

He played roughly 350 minutes at DM across 2 league starts and 4 cup starts. This was where he played his best football in my opinion, crucially as part of a double pivot alongside Thiago who is a similar player to Mac Allister in my opinion.

There was then another maybe 100 minutes where he came on as a sub and his position wasn’t recorded and it was a mix of CM and DM from memory.

Hence why I think he deserves a chance during pre-season in Slot’s preferred double pivot alongside who I think will most likely be Mac Allister. I’m not saying Bajcetic has loads of experience as a lone 6 because he has pretty much zero, but that is irrelevant because Slot doesn’t play with a lone 6. He uses 2 DM’s and one sits to protect and build up from deeper and the other pushes up higher when Geertruida inverts. Bajcetic showed the ability with the ball when he played off the left of a 3 to suggest he will be okay building up from deep and he showed the destructive capabilities when he was in the double pivot with Thiago to suggest he can screen the backline. He came through as a CB so he is defensively minded and that is important because too many of our midfielders are forward thinking players who don’t see danger. I stand by my original point, he deserves a chance before we buy.

Agree2

15 May 2024 19:10:47
Saliba would struggle in the system we play cos people forget, it is Gabrial who is left on his own when Zinchenko inverts. Just my take.

Agree1

15 May 2024 20:06:37
Mk absolutely and I agree. Irish asked about the Premier league though mate hence why I mentioned RB.

I remember his game at home to wolves and Fab was at DM and he was our best player on the pitch playing the left 8.

That’s not me saying he can’t play 6, I’m just saying he’s pretty good at 8 as well.

Obviously with a new manager and formation you’re spot on that we might not be playing a lone 6.

Baj only played the equivalent of 10 a half games last season across 4 competitions for the first team.

As much as I’m excited about him I also believe it’s extremely early days in his career for us to be pinning our hopes to him.

Anyone remember the Scouse Cafu.

Agree0

15 May 2024 23:03:44
It's not so much the system that doesn't work. It's our players that can't make it work.
Other teams play with a back three when they have the ball but they are not left as exposed as we are because they have more and better defensive minded players. Not many teams would play Mac as a six and have him flanked by the likes of Szob, Grav, Jones or Elliott.
Our best team under Klopp very often had both full backs very high up the pitch but we had the players to allow them to do that. Henderson, Wijnaldum and Milner would cover for them.

Agree0

16 May 2024 12:51:28
Anyone signing with the view of being back up while in their prime isn't worth having, they should sign with a view that they will break into the first 11.

Agree0

15 May 2024 07:49:09
This for me is a week to celebrate Jürgen Norbert Klopp and appreciate what he has done for our great club. What is your favourite memory over Jurgens time as manager -

Mine is the first interview when he called himself 'The Normal One', at that point something special begun and I have enjoyed every minute of it the good and bad.

Thank you Jürgen for making me a believer again and I wish you happiness, success and good health in the future 🍻.

15 May 2024 11:22:15
My favourite Klopp moment was a couple of days ago when he made the press wait for him and said "Who gives a ****" 😂.

Agree5

15 May 2024 12:35:13
Mine would have to be Lallana Broken Glasses. Absolutly brilliant and that was some of the best football matches I can remember watching win, lose or draw.

Agree3

15 May 2024 13:31:09
The broken glasses was a good one.

Favourite probably the running on the pitch to celebrate with Alisson after Origi won the derby in added time 😆.

Agree3

15 May 2024 14:52:43
The brainf@#k for brain fog for me 😂.

Agree3

15 May 2024 17:38:21
The tears at the champions league final. Meant so much to him and us all to be back at the top again.

Agree1

15 May 2024 18:37:37
Great man, great manager and delivered great football much of the time as well as the full set of trophies.

Agree0

15 May 2024 18:47:52
I agree with Ron, when Origi scored that late winner V Everton, that was great to see Klopp running on to the pitch . wow what a moment .

Agree1

15 May 2024 19:12:47
"It is not important what people think of you when you come. It is more important what people think of you when you leave".

And this actually played out in reality. Honor and Integrity Till The End!

LFC Logo

iwillbered has written an article entitled, Liverpool FC Players Overview

That's not a bad summary, red. I disagree about a few players but that is to be expected.
One thing that stands out though is that forward lines like Salah, Mane and Firmino don't come along very often. They worked that well together and the longevity of the partnership was almost freakish.
Our forward options are still good but it was unlikely that we could replicate quality of the old one.
In fact, I would say our attacking options are better than Arsenal's.

Said the same on an earlier post - we've made our strikers job too hard this by gifting too many teams and early goal which immediately puts them into chase the game mode, increasing the pressure on them to score. A top quality DM would/ will make a huge difference I believe, I think our forward line is pretty decent really but we've just given them too much to do by starting so many games a goal down!

If Salah goes then I'd be tempted to stick Szoboslai out there rather than trying to buy a direct replacement. Go back to 3 hard workers in midfield.

Can't really disagree with anything you wrote iwillbered apart from the Robbo part. I suspect we will let him run his contract down and look to instead bring in a new left back to replace Tsimikas. Beck might get another loan and if he continues to impress secure Robbo's place in the squad the year after.

First thing we need to do is settle on the tactics, including the scope of Trent's role in the team. Second thing is to sort the defensive midfield position out as the issue has been dragging on too long.

After that, presumably Matip, Tsimikas, Diaz (sounds like he's off), Kelleher and Salah (sounds like he could be sold) will ned to be replaced.

Johnnyr, agree there. We scored three goals against Villa which should be enough to win a game. Our poor defending and lack of any kind of organisation is killing us.

A pretty good summary. Wouldn’t change much about what you suggested.

Spot on, ViktorVaughan. Also, people mentioning Salah, Mane and Bobbie need to stop with the comparisons with this crop. We all know that when they arrived, people laughed at us signing such players and didn't think they would reach the Balon D'OR levels they reached (apart from Bobbie, I think) .

Now we all saw them grow from there to absolute PL legends, let alone LFC legends. The most feared Front 3 in PL history, IMO. Second only to MSN in CL history, IMO. We did not sign them when they were great cos we wouldn't be able to afford them. We signed them as projects who blew up. It is time for us to give the current crop the support we game these legends and stop comparing them to legends, IMO.

To me, Allison looks like he does not want to be at LFC.

How have worked that out then?

And, you figured this out, how?

Did you see the one player who has actually been consistently good these last 2 years and thought, none of that!

These amateur psychologists are hilarious!

Because he looks annoyed at his teammates when goals go in? He is always like this. He hates getting scored on since he came to the club and will waste no time in going after teammates for errors. Remember him blaming the wall against Barcelona.

Hopefully he stays because he is a massive part of this club.

He looked annoyed because of the keystone cops defending. I don’t blame him.

Heavy metal might not be his thing.
I can see him being a Smooth Radio listener.

some of the defending has been pub league standard at times, he should be very annoyed .

And we're off with the conspiracy theories again.
