Premier League 2019-20 part II

[Duchene2MacKinnon]

I’m just saying. If there is a miraculous recovery don’t be surprised. I just hate the media narrative that LFC is automatically going to roll them, and that no one from Utd would get into the LFC XI. LFC have not been good at Old Trafford, even under Klopp. Form goes out the window in rivalry games.

Well that's two different things, OGS and United gain no advantage by calming their players are hurt. It's not like they're going to appear at Old trafford Undertaker style and Klopp soils himself.

LFC should win they're the favourites and are the far far better team. Whether they show it or not is beside the point really. One player would get into this LFC team and that is Pogba. That's a fact and to claim otherwise is small team mentality.

Aren't we all inured to Savant's shtick at this point?

I’m not disagreeing with any of this. All I said is I don’t like the media coverage. It’s been really disrespectful to United. Giving them a lot of bulletin board material. Not saying it will matter. I think Liverpool will take three but old Trafford is never an easy fixture. Media are treating it like it is.

If you're not disagreeing with anything that has been said why did you post that your in disbelief at united injuries? Doesn't make too much sense.

Ferguson used to pull that stuff all the time. I don’t think De Gea will play but it wouldn’t surprised me if they pulled a Mr. Miyagi on him. Same with Pogba, who is more likely that De Gea, but you never know. It’s not exactly Uncommon for teams to be disingenuous with their injury reporting

Ferguson hasn't been their coach for years. Maybe it is uncommon for teams to lie but form the LFC perspective the game plan shouldn't change so, it makes no difference to them. That's the position LFC are in they're good enough to just worry about playing their own game. Regardless of who's in front of them.

 

[Chimaera]

There's a distinct advantage to keeping them off the sheet until they can play. Any chance that they could do so would help prevent Liverpool preparing for the particular players. I don't think OGS is dishonest in this situation, but it wouldn't be the first (and it won't be the last) time a club tried to be fuzzy with reports to get an advantage. I think it's happening on the other side with Salah. I think there's a good shot he doesn't play start if they're saying he's on track.

I do think the clarity of saying "they're out" means they're most likely out. If they had a shot, he might have said something closer to I'm not sure we will have to evaluate them in practice this week or it might be a bit too soon.

I kinda wonder if the EPL has any medical requirements to consider in this situation. In some other sports leagues, they can't be funny with injury lists.

Sure. I agree with most of this, but I do think gamesmanship exists.

 

[These Are The Days]

LFC fans are getting paranoid at this point.

Uhhhh something something something "can't hear you from all the way up here on our perch" something something something "it's so high it's making us paranoid" something something something 6 times...


idk you make a good point lol

Ole Gunnar Solskjaer makes sly dig at Liverpool: 'It will not take Manchester United 30 years to win another title'

“I am sure we will bounce back and win the league,” said Solskjaer, with a twinkle in his eye. “And I am sure it won’t be 30 years until the next Premier League that we do win.”

I hope they let OGS have every opportunity to prove that statement true.

Are we sure it won’t take 30 years?

 

[Live in the Now]

Quite a thing to say for a manager that shouldn't even have a job. He might want to try to be within 30 points of Liverpool before making such a statement.

Nope, our favorite subject is the six time and current Champions of Europe.

But when you have a relegation quality manager (in fact the only prize he has won as a manager in England is being relegated) making comments like that about your team, you do have to laugh at them.

Of course it won't take 30 years for us to win a title, don't be ridiculous. We'll win the Championship next season

After the game tomorrow they will go back into their current irrelevance to Liverpool. Enjoy true attention while you can. Get back into the title picture and champions league and I will care again.

Liverpool was there when we weren’t challenging, where this was the most important fixture, but it’s not the most important game for them any more. It’s the reverse for Utd now. But of course that makes them dangerous today, especially at home

"Chelsea Supporters Trust" is a fan organization, it's not run by the club. Hopefully their chairman resigns for inserting his homophobic personal beliefs into his job in the supporters trust.

Chelsea has some terrible supporters, but they aren't the only club with this problem in England or Europe.
