Football

Boro in playoff place. I'll take that please.

Scintillating football at the iPro stadium today?

It's all about the three points, we don't care about winning the passing/woodwork/plastic flags contest.

A win against St£v£ Ev@ns (convicted criminal and tax fraudster) side deserves huge congratulations.

Bournemouth are gonna have it this season

I travelled to see us play Porto today. I wish i hadn't.

Are the scousers getting a bit spicy again?

Can't wait to see Coutinho trying to play 'that pass' to Sturridge all season. You know, the one he kept trying to play in all the games Suarez was banned for last season...

ha funnily enough " that pass " got us our first goal today

2-0 up at half time against dortmund... hope you are watching john
manquillo looking pretty good
studger looking sharp
coutihno doing his usual brazillian wizardry ( thats the brazil from the 70's not the current shower )
lovren goal
sterling for someone who looks relatively skinny on tv he's strong as an ox and playing well
all round good attacking performance

bring on the second half

I guess he had all summer to work on it..

do you reckon his missus played the studger role, legging it down the beach to be found at the feet by a pinpoint pass

run carmen run

4-0 final score against a klopp team
we looked more solid in defence lovren and skrtel handled most things well and looked composed together
bringing on ibe allen lucas shows a bit of depth

johnson was rubbish again, worst player in red by a mile

8.5 / 10 performance roll on a defeat vs southampton

Good result. Wish I could have watched it

Liverpool looked very good. Nice to start the season off by thrashing a decent team at Anfield again

Arsenal won today. Yet another trophy.

Does the charity shield count?

Already covered; definitely not.

You can only win the things you're in...

Does the charity shield count?

Only if you win it, otherwise it's just a slightly more competitive pre-season friendly.

Ahem.

3-0 easy win

It's not a trophy, unless Liverpool win it, then the plastics get all excited.

Proper football starts next weekend.

I'm back from holiday. Had no internet in Sardinia, what were Murphy and McGoldrick's goals like?

Good start to the season.

Not for Chester though, 0-3 down and a red card within 15 minutes is not ideal.

You mean when they climbed to the top of the league?

Re the Dortmund game: They were missing Rues, Hummels and a few other top drawer players. It was a good warm up for the season ahead. That is all.

Indeed.
All our foes are starting to feel the pressure very very early this season. I mean a ball hasn't even been kicked and people are ranting and raving about us.
I think most will have completely lost the plot by Christmas

theoretically our defence can make up for the loss of suarez this season
10 less goals up front
10 goals better in defence
and we hopefully can be in the same situation as last season pushing for the title with 6 games to go

Nonsense dicki.

Game dynamics are changed greatly by the scoring of goals. Impossible to predict.
