Klopptimist Prime - Liverpool FC 2019/20

Couldn't have come at a better time, this result. We've been winning ugly/grinding the results out of late and I think the confidence was waning. This was a proper emphatic win.
 
Jurgen Klopp has set a new club record by achieving 100 league wins in the fewest amount of games in the top flight as Liverpool manager, it took just 159 games. Previous record held by Kenny Dalglish, 167 games.
 
Talking of the Ballon D'ORigi d’Or :hmm:

Just looking at the top 10
1. Lionel Messi (Barcelona)
2. Virgil van Dijk (Liverpool)
3. Cristiano Ronaldo (Juventus)
4. Sadio Mane (Liverpool)
5. Mohamed Salah (Liverpool)
6. Kylian Mbappe (PSG)
7. Alisson Becker (Liverpool)
8. Robert Lewandowski (Bayern Munich)
9. Bernardo Silva (Man City)
10. Riyad Mahrez (Man City)
If you had to pick only one player from a club...

From Barcelona it will only be Messi
From Juventus it would only be Ronaldo
From PSG it would only be Mbappe
From Munich it would only be Lewandowski
From City I will give Silva the top 10 but Mahrez should not be there and Sterling (good as he is) was not good enough over that period

But for Liverpool there are three (four with Alisson Becker) players that over that period could claim the Ballon d’Or
 
Anyway, back to business...

Liverpool FIFA Club World Cup squad:
Alisson, Van Dijk, Wijnaldum, Lovren, Milner, Keita, Firmino, Mane, Salah, Gomez, Adrian, Henderson, Oxlade-Chamberlain, Lallana, Lonergan, Shaqiri, Brewster, Robertson, Origi, Jones, Alexander-Arnold, Elliott, Williams.

Fucking have it ^ anyone want a fight?
 
Lallana gets bad rap imo. I know Mccoist said it Wednesday night but he really does work fucking hard off the ball. In Rodgers team he was probably the workhorse of the midfield and in those early Klopp months he was probably the first player on the team sheet has he worked his socks off doing the type of pressing Klopp demanded and causes oppostion players to make mistakes. He's not the worlds best on the ball, but he ain't bad either. Great squad player.
 
Not a bad first half. Would be nice to get a clean sheet and a few more goals.

In other news TAA is going to be a legend to rival Gerrard
 
Salah :thumbs:

Good to see Keita playing well. Would like to see one of the young lads (and/or) Shaq getting involved.
 
Table and GD looking decent :cool:
