Klopptimist Prime - Liverpool FC 2019/20

FFS fell asleep at half time (manflu) so missed it. Woke up to hear the Citeh winner go in :facepalm:

Just caught up. We were pretty poor, they played well and we won.

The VAR was 50/50 for me. Free kick leading to the goal was a push by Trent then a push on Lovren in the area :hmm:
 
Yeah I’m not quite getting the outcry on this one. If lovren wasn’t pushed he could have leapt for the ball. Even if he didn’t get to it the fact he’d have blocked Tomkins view of it coming in could have made a difference. So this argument that it wouldn’t have effected things is bollocks in my opinion.

the problem with var in prem is that the field officials aren’t reviewing the material pitch side like the refs did in the World Cup. I think if it was done this way it wouldn’t be getting as much flack as it has been. But yeah. They got this right in my opinion.
 
Xabi Alonso Interview (2017) from the Anfield Wrap
The Anfield Wrap / TAW Classics: Xabi Alonso Interview
Back in 2017, John Gibbons and Andy Heaton sat down with Liverpool legend Xabi Alonso in Munich for a wide-ranging 50 minute exclusive interview. The Liverpool legend talks in detail about the highs and lows of his time in the game, including what it was like settling in a foreign country, to that night in Istanbul and ultimately why he left Liverpool after coming so close to winning that elusive league title.
 
Hope Fabinho’s injury isn’t too serious, especially coming into the December run of fixtures.

It’s a strange feeling being a Liverpool fan these days. 2-3 years ago, yeh we were drawing 5-5 with the likes of Norwich but the style of football was exciting and I genuinely enjoyed every single second of the games and took the downs as well as the ups.

Nowadays, yes we’re winning most games but it doesn’t feel earned, almost like United were like in their hey days with Fergie time goals. Feels ugly, I want that exciting heavy metal football and win every game. Maybe that’s the price to pay for winning though who knows. Mini rant over lol.
 
:facepalm:
Liverpool midfielder Fabinho has been ruled out until the new year with ankle ligament damage sustained in the midweek Champions League draw with Napoli. He will miss a minimum of nine matches, including the Merseyside derby against Everton on 4 December and the trip to nearest challengers at the top of the Premier League Leicester City on Boxing Day.

"The Brazilian will begin a rehabilitation programme with the Reds’ medical team at Melwood as he works his way back to full fitness," said the club.
