    Liverpool fans are learning what we’ve been saying about the Europa League for years.

    Doesn’t matter who you play, that Thursday-Sunday schedule is brutal. Than fucking god we aren’t in that competition anymore

      almost like the league should say lets schedule the right number of days between prem and Europe matches for our teams.

      Sat to tues for tues CL teams.

      Sun to wed for wed CL teams

      Mon to Thurs for EL and conf teams.

      and the CL teams take precedence when meeting a EL team in the prem.

      It’s weird youd think resting players against crap teams in the group games would help vs CL but that Europa schedule is brutal

    It’s so amusing how on /r/soccer when Jorginho doesn’t shake hands at the end of the game it’s the death of sportmanship and outrage but when Darwin doesn’t do it we shouldn’t become body language experts and analyse everythings in depth.

      r/soccer may as well be a Liverpool sub.

      Look at the comments in the post where Klopp has a hissy fit in the press conference. Then imagine what they’d look like if that was Arteta.

    Man I really hope we win the next 4 games in the league because the games after that are Villa (A), BHA (H) and LIV(A).

    How many points do you think we get from the next 7? I won’t mind 4 wins in next 4 and then 4/9 from other 3

    Eidevall having to defend himself from the media despite Gareth Taylor literally making accusations out of thin air and not even apologizing is hilarious.

    Also these are two middle-aged men acting like children to be honest, the whole thing is insane:

    This Tottenham injury crisis is a little comparable to when everything went to shit in our Sporting game, except we had practically secured champions league and got a good 8 months of vibes before it happened

    Ange postulani won the manager of the month again. Have a feeling this will be the highlight of their season

    Rice wins balls in midfield he has no right to. I’ve never seen a midfielder make the kind of interceptions and recoveries he makes on an almost every match basis

      I see those 50-50 balls or the balls in the air and think fuck we gave lost it, then boom rice appears and we play again.

    Vieira still is not trusted to fill in for injuries in midfield. Arsenal are now stockpiling four tens, three of which are left footed with a right sided bias. Someone is getting sold.

    Somehow in the summer wanting to sell the injury prone and never reliable rapist was the unpopular opinion

      Not a wild take to rate either.

      You’d probably take Suarez 2015/16 over Henry 2002/3.

      Not terrible, Suarez was absolutely unreal. He had a much better CL campaign than Henry at their best as well.

      Henry doesn’t have an iconic CL campaign and it impacts his legacy signifcantly.

      If he’d had won it for Arsenal in 06, people would be talking about one of the best to ever do it.

      Now though, we have to deal with bullshit like Benzema comparisons.

      They never watched Henry playing. He is a WC winner and wasn’t just a guy in a squad.
      I love Suarez and part of me hates Henry (see below) but Henry is god tier along with R9 and R10 and very few others.

      Suarez is undeniably incredible his technique and aggression is 10/10 but Henry also had 10/10 class, which somehow made him more enjoyable to watch, similar to Ronaldinho.

      Sorry about partly hating the king but I had to watch that mofo steal a world cup from Brazil, it was written but it was incredibly painful to watch. Love him in red, hate him in blue.

        Try being an Ireland fan when he had that handball incident… Was a really confusing time for me. It hurt to see
