Howay

Could anything be more on brand for those half an half scarf wearing day trippers? “Remember to bring your wicker picnic baskets to all of the bees home games, win, lose, or draw we will hand out Tumeric so you and the whole family have a great day regardless”.

I guess it’s good he doesn’t play for us, there’d be serious questions about cowardice coming up

It’s his constant being a prick to reporters when they lose, and then acting like everyone is his mate and he’s this affable bloke when they win as well. Like on that clip where he starts being a prick to the woman asking what the key difference between winning and losing in the game was - the question wasn’t phrased well but it’s fairly clear she was asking if he thought there was a key moment or key turning point like the save from Mane’s shot, instead he just chooses to be a pedantic bellend. I’m sure we will all get told how amazing he is as a bloke and that we should be rooting for him next season as per usual. While I expected to see it I still don’t like that there’s this desire to heap plaudits on Liverpool and kind of frame Real Madrid’s win as a fluke. It reminded me a lot of when Benitez managed us and there were games where despite us being in our half for long stretches we only allowed the opposition to attack certain ways before nullifying it. Ancelotti outcoached Klopp imo, Klopp can keep complaining when these results happen or he can figure out a way to break down this type of set up rather than just writing it off as some mystery/fluke/saying ‘we did enough to win’ type things. Liverpool did very well for most of the first half but at the same time Real Madrid defended very well which in the modern game tends to get ignored and when attacking teams lose it becomes this story of how the other team clung on. I’m one that normally thinks the English superiority complex about other leagues can be a bit overstated, but this final fucking reeked of it. The pre-tournament favorites were no doubt PSG, Man City, Liverpool, and Chelsea - Real Madrid beat them all, Liverpool played Inter, Benfica, and Villarreal. You can only beat who was put in front of you but fucking hell man if a team wins with that run you have to say fair play.

Mr charisma turning into a petty bellend when things don’t go his way yet again. The narrative emerging about Real Madrid being lucky to be there btw, on one hand yes they had a ridiculous turnaround against Man City and got through tight games, but on the other hand they had to play PSG, Chelsea, and Man City in the knock outs - so fair play.

Tbf it doesn’t look like Casey understands it either, the issue around the offside decision had fuck all to do with phases of play.

Carragher currently explaining how Alexander-Arnold couldn’t have done any better for the goal, why even fucking bother having people this bias on?

Look forward to all the experts being “confused” how Liverpool lost a game they were dominated in. Can everyone stop equating possession with being the better team?

It’s Carragher, Henry, and Richards. As bad as this is Owen single-handedly makes the UK coverage worse.

I knew that he was in an offside position but didn’t know that the play off the Liverpool defender had to be an intentional pass. As much as Liverpool have controlled possession it feels like Madrid are dictating the game waiting for a sucker punch. They’ll wait until 60 drop Valverde into midfield and put Rodrygo on and we will have to hear how it all makes no sense as Liverpool “dominated”.

Howay Madrid

What the actual fuck was that about? Since it was delayed could they have just sacked that off.

“It’s definitely not because of us” says the fan base this regularly happens to. Fucking Carragher just brought up Hillsboro as proof it’s not Liverpool fans. What a prick.

Well he’d fit right in at Sunderland tbh, the state of the way their fans rate players. Payet isn’t even close to being the best French player in his position since Zidane retired, never mind talent full stop.

Casey and Burnsie AT ODDS

Have they clicked that having loads of people own small percentages doesn’t lead to them investing? Why would you heavily invest in something you had no control in. I mean that’s before the fact that their all trust fund kids and not actual billionaires, like this KLD’s mam is 59, remarried and has a bunch of kids when in the near future is this lad piling his theoretical wealth into something he only a minority stake of?

They’re absolutely pathetic man. Meanwhile I’m looking forward to having a rivalry with Man City, but sure having them give your shite club a pat on the head is way better.

I know this is a highlight video but fucking hell he looks a player, great touch and control, quick, direct, and a range of finishes/assists. I would never have thought we could have went right from Fraser/Almiron/Murphy to a player like him - then again we went from Longstaff to Bruno I suppose

Aye I found it funny too, harsh to say publicly I guess but football can be. FWIW Grealish has a point imo:

Our fans are so desperate for a transfer they’re taking photos of randoms blokes.

Weird one for him to delete, feel like that’s his typical style. Maybe your man Casey sent a DM.

Shots fired by everyone’s favorite plonky indirectly catching Wykikis boy Casey in the cross fire.

The tan on him man, clearly wasn’t a quick weekend trip neither. Either that or it was a regular thing. That’s the thing that cracks me up about Bruce, he literally does do all these things people say he does and then gets all wound up when people mention it as if he’s really an Eddie Howe type that works 6am to 10pm. If you don’t want people highlighting you’re a slacking cunt just don’t be one, or ignore people saying it. How does he not see merit in people being annoyed when he’s taking holidays mid season as the team looks fucking awful and is plummeting into the bottom 3? People bring up last season to defend him as if we weren’t heading for relegation until Joe Willock scored a goal a game for like 7 games in a row to pull us out of it.

I always laugh at Manchester United or Arsenal fans whinging about being crap, between them I think they’ve had about one mid table finish in 20+ years, and had shit loads of trophies in that time. Yet the media regularly talks about how they’re suffering etc despite both spunking loads on highly rated players and competing for European spots
