Football

Suarez bottled it today.

He always does against the bigger teams.

Liverpool are top of the league, ahead of everyone else ffs.

The difference is that we actually won. That's the only thing that counts.
How many runners up get remembered. I cannot care less as for how we play providing we win trophies. It's all good and well playing pretty football but if it means winning nowt (e.g. Arsenal) than it means fuck all.

Serious question. What do you prefer, playing pretty football with >60% possession for the season or having a serious game plan against your direct competition and stocking up on silverware?

It depends on how you want to be remembered. The Invincibles are still talked about with reverence. Pep's Barça will be spoken about in many decades from now. How do you think your team will be spoken of? Do you care at all? Personally I'd hate to watch the dross he serves up week in week out. It's telling when you keep getting unstuck when you're up against "19th century" teams.

The other side of the duality is Wengeritis*: A refusal to look at where the game is at - on these shores- and work with it. Instead he goes the self righteous route of how it should be played and throwing toys out when things do not work out...an attitude that has seeped into the mindset of his players.

• pellegrini could go in here but they have the funds. Principles be expensive.
  
  

It's been fun watching us this year but practicality rules.

Not in their own hands anymore is it?

I thought you lot were leading the fight against financial doping? Poor old Scousers cashing in their giro's to scrape together £35million to buy Andy Carroll..

It's been fun watching us this year but winning, is winning.

God newcastle are diabolical. no chance of scoring a goal today. pardew out banners got a lot of coverage on sky sports. emirates was empty on 88 minutes.

Looks like Wenger will be signing that new contract now. Dust down the trophy cabinet!

Financial Doping? You mean the term coined by Wenger and used exclusively by Wenger?

What made you think 'we' were fighting anything like this?

Why the fuck would scousers be selling off their bike helmets to buy a player when the funds were made available from Roman?

How did Spurs get on with their £100M lottery win?

I know you said 'you don't care' about Spurs but why so many posts about not your own team?

Financial doping is also beloved of Hibs fans when talking about Hearts and a certain type of paranoid Scottish football fan - mainly Celtic fans - on the myriad tedious rangers blogs.

^^ because it's much more fun winding you up.

Besides, Spurs have been 'on hold' ever since AVB got dumped - Sideshow Tim has just been providing some light entertainment until Levy hires a real manager. We'll need someone to sack next season afterall.

If you actually read my posts you'd also know that I stopped going to games 3, or 4 years ago as I think top flight football is a complete joke these days. I just come here for the lolz mainly.

You seriously need to get a life.

We all come here for the lolz, you twat.

We certainly don't come for the cutting edge football analysis that's for damn sure.

Anyway, a bit later than normal, but Happy St Tottingham's Day everyone.

You obviously don't read Corny's posts

Nobody told Suárez it was a protest against racism.

He probably threw the banana at Coutinho afterwards...

I guess this is Chelsea's best chance of silverware this season!

He's a football manager, have they ever showed any signs of sartorial elegance?

Inchworm?

Congratulations to Arsene Wegner for securing the coveted 4th place trophy. Here's to another few years

St Tottingham's Day
as per the above

LOL. Is there a St. Neverton's day?

maybe that should be the anniversary of the day we won the european cup in 2005 , thus knocking everton out of the competition the following season, even though they got 4th, the football community demanded the holders be re admitted

Let's hope they do alright against citeh eh!

LOL Not a hope in hell. Martinez is a man of integrity and will surely tell his team to go out and give it their all. But of all the whoppers in the crowd are anything like Pisti then you can imagine the players will be effected and not give 100%

I think City wi increase their GD by +3 or 4 meaning we would need to beat both Newcastle and Palace 9-0.
Doable against the turgid Geordies but not Palace.
It's over

There's no way we'll win on GD, but City could slip with all the pressure. Highly unlikely, infact it won't happen, but I like to pretend it can so when I wet the bed I do a proper job of it.
