just back to back stinkers really, I mean offensively we looked a lot better, more creative especially when Henderson and Milner came in for Moreno and Geene. Today, defensively, Can stinks at marking and we seem to never block crosses from wingers. Lets hope Klopp can fix this and we can see more consistency on defense.

If Lemar comes our way I might get a semi, I'd like some young creativity.

The Fighting Beckhams are officially going to be a thing. Well, not that name, but some yet to be announced name. But he's officially getting his Miami team.
I went to the event this afternoon. They gave away a few hundred free tickets to this, and they were gone within 2 hours. Luckily, I got mine within those 2 hours.
So happy for Beckham. It's been a tough time negotiating this Banana Republic's piece of shit corrupt politics. Most people would have said Fuck Miami, and move on. I'm glad he didn't. Having followed his career since he was a pimply faced teenager, it is really cool to see this come to fruition for him, and even cooler in my town.

Come now, surely even United fans get a chuckle from that ugly c@nt, and that finish was beautiful! Don't worry, I'm sure Alexis will shine against Huddersfield and Newcastle, and you can all pretend that you no longer play shit football and can't compete with the big clubs.
Your chaps responded well after the first goal though, for 5 minutes, then folded. What the fuck was that? 3 shots all game, all of them in the first 5 minutes? Fucking Moyes or van Gaal fought harder than that. Fergie must be looking into assisted suicide. You're lucky it wasn't 6-0.
I don't want to help you guys, but a) ditch Lukaku, b) put Alexis up top, c) surround him with Lingard, Martial, Rashford/Mata, d) teach them how to play together, which Moo seems incapable of, d) never bring Fellaini on - grow up, e) ditch that shit back four. How the fuck is that your back four? This is Manchester United, and you have Jones, Smalling, Valencia and Ashley-fucking-Young, in 2018? None one of those players would make the bench on a top six club . . . other than Liverpool, but they at least know they suck at the back. But let's keep buying attacking players and making them play shit defensive football, rather than having a solid defense and building it from the back. Poor fucking Pogba - he must be fucking furious. But yet again, big game, he does fuck all, subbed off . . .

Umm. Ok. Thanks for your input. Glad you enjoyed the match so much yesterday. Do you have your Huddersfield shirt ready for Saturday or are you still wearing your Spurs shirt for the afterglow effect?

Yup, he was subbed out at half and went to the other league. Meanwhile my nieces team won the Champions League

Had not had a chance to watch the game after sleeping in from me and OTPT staying up till 5am watching the Gold medal curling match. I had ignored everything even our thread, out of all people who could ruin it.... I drop off a coffee at my mums, "did you see Mo's goal? big win"

There is absolutely 0 doubt that college basketball has way way way way more flopping than league soccer does.
Fight me if you disagree. Also watch as much league soccer as you do college basketball. Then come back and disagree.

Re: Warning, this thread is for soccer (more like Travis and Matty Liverpool chat)
It's an interesting comparison, Travis. What soccer has that basketball doesn't is flat out diving without being touched. Flopping for a charge in basketball is akin to a soccer player that takes a slight bump and goes flying. That draws as much ire in soccer as a full dive, including by soccer haters, but I've never once seen anyone call for a flopper in basketball to be ejected or suspended.
Another interesting comparison is when a soccer player draws contact, such as dragging a leg to catch a defender's leg, etc. These are looked upon as just as bad as the diving mentioned above. But when a basketball player does a pump fake or leans into a player, they're being smart and crafty.
And while I'm ranting about soccer-basketball comparisons, one of my biggest pet peeves in soccer is when a player knocks the ball past the defender, then runs straight into the defender to draw a foul. 9 times out of 10 (or more) they give the foul on the attacker, even if the defender doesn't move into the player's path at all. Soccer should really adopt something similar to the legitimate charging rule (not flops) in basketball.

Agree with all of that Miami.
Also holy hell arsenal. Losing 2-0 to Brighton at the moment. What a disaster that I’m totally content sitting back and watching.

Yippee, a battle for second place. Congrats in advance. Still wondering why I'm up early just to see Mourinho puss out again. Smalling and Young trying to defend Salah should be some good comedy.
Either way, I still pity you.
Build a bonfire, build a bonfire,
put the scousers on the top.
Put City in the middle
And burn the fucking lot.

I like that the announcers keep emphasizing that Mourinho seems to think this game isn’t a big deal and Klopp says “it’ll never be over” (or something to that effect.) it makes me feel comfortable.
