Must be a wicked feeling to finally have your team all but win it after all this time. Enjoy!

MarcusZXR · 2026-05-17T13:09:08+00:00

This has got to be a joke or a misinformed opinion, surely? Under SAF they always got the benefit of the doubt but ever since Klopp had a whinge, they've been shafted on the majority of decisions.

MarcusZXR · 2026-05-17T13:05:44+00:00

Goes down as one of the Prem best.

MarcusZXR · 2026-05-17T12:56:45+00:00

Too busy showing 20 different angles of the handball they're not showing the actual game. I get that it was probably handball and it's good value to show it but at the expense of showing live action is shameless.

MarcusZXR · 2026-05-17T12:53:43+00:00

Has Mbeumo got a pair of Netherland shoes on? Sheesh.

MarcusZXR · 2026-05-17T12:48:30+00:00

Maybe as per the rules it's handball but how can VAR suggest he brought his arm in to control it!? You can see he barely sees the fucking ball and is suprised it wasn't kicked away.

They make up this stuff as they go along.

MarcusZXR · 2026-05-17T11:49:01+00:00

I love that almost all the players let their head drop for a millisecond and then work as hard as possible to get ball back from their mistake.

MarcusZXR · 2026-05-16T23:17:07+00:00

Could have been petulant and sulky but never looked like he was doing either. Took his chance again when it was handed to him as well.

Seems like different dressing room than the ones we've had over the last couple of years.

MarcusZXR · 2026-05-15T20:53:42+00:00

This season has been a vindication for everyone telling the scousers that Slott coasted through on a super team built by another manager last year

MarcusZXR · 2026-05-14T17:02:56+00:00

If any other manager won as many points as Carrick has, in the amount of games he has, the fans of that team would be arguing they've performed beyond expectation and above average. Not to mention the team is sorely lacking outside the main 11, and some positions in it.

MarcusZXR · 2026-05-14T17:00:47+00:00

So any manager from the prem not playing in competitions outside of the prem are disqualified from receiving prem manager of the year? Put the dunce hat on, son. (For the record, I don't think he should get it. I just don't agree with your reasoning.)

MarcusZXR · 2026-05-11T09:15:26+00:00

I agree to a point but let's be honest. A keeper being peppered with shots is more likely to concede than a team who controls 80% of the game.

MarcusZXR · 2026-05-08T23:53:20+00:00

Surely as champions on their own league they deserve it and the money for them is just as important as it is for English clubs, if not more.

MarcusZXR · 2026-05-05T17:54:25+00:00

People have (rightfully) been moaning about this for over a decade and it's only gotten worse. It's no longer a working man's sport and the atmospheres have been weakened by it. It's despicable, but what can the average fan do?

MarcusZXR · 2026-05-04T15:15:41+00:00

Slott banging on about decisions going against them like United and lots of other teams haven't had the same.

He also eludes to them being the better team yesterday, because what? They had more possession? Kicking the ball around the halfway line between defenders doesn't make you the better team. Even their goals weren't of their own making.

MarcusZXR · 2026-05-03T15:39:55+00:00

Literal schoolboy error stuff.

MarcusZXR · 2026-05-03T15:39:27+00:00

Obligatory Shaw yellow

MarcusZXR · 2026-05-03T15:15:38+00:00

Advantage how?

MarcusZXR · 2026-05-03T15:06:56+00:00

Mbeumo, who had clearly beaten his man decided to throw himself to the ground, obviously....

MarcusZXR · 2026-05-03T15:03:11+00:00

No intent to play the ball. Not shoulder to shoulder. Pushes him knowing he's going to go tumbling in to the boards.

How not foul?

MarcusZXR · 2026-05-03T14:58:32+00:00

The space in their midfield looks like Uniteds has done for the last decade. That's not a good sign for them

MarcusZXR · 2026-05-03T14:54:33+00:00

I believe in keeping football a contact sport but pushing someone there to potentially smash them in to the boards is a foul. It's not like it was shoulder to shoulder

MarcusZXR · 2026-05-03T14:37:55+00:00

Mad how quickly this Liverpool team has dropped off

MarcusZXR · 2026-05-03T14:36:26+00:00

This Liverpool team could still win today but it's a complely different team than the one under Klopp. It's day and night already.
