(I'm a cynic, when this much money's involved it'll happen). Given the clubs involved are basically making the league up, they'll make sure the rules allow huge squads too to facilitate the extra games. Imagine how little we'd have to spend to not get relegated if these clubs got banished from the PL Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Am fucked if I’m giving you any more loot seeing as you’re going running off into the arms of JP Morgan you treacherous cunts” is roughly how I’d word it...the whole thing is going to court anyway... One thing is blindingly obvious to me, the Saudis wanted to take us into it and were partly prevented from doing so by English clubs sticking an oar into the process last summer, for fear of losing out themselves. Qatar/Bein obviously played a part too, Bein look like they’re fucked now anyway if it all goes through as planned. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Game doesn't stop for ads either, the ads happen when the game naturally stops - only stops when change of possession or a timeout and clock stops when the ball is out of play. Moving is extremely rare, but that is the billionaire owner effect, when it does happen it's usually the perennially shit teams it happens to - and that's even with all their high draft picks. Come back when you know what you are talking about, y'know, like fancy cheese on toast. Fat blokes in tights and armour….. iirc… 🍔🍿 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You saying he should've called an all out strike until we get more information? Sold his employers down the swanny? Walked out of his job in protest five minutes before kick off?

Sold his employers down the swanny? Walked out of his job in protest five minutes before kick off? Eh, no. You're not afraid of hyperbole are you. What I'm saying, and my comments are directed towards what he said after the match, is that he could have been a lot stronger instead of equivocating and obfuscating on behalf of the Liverpool owners. He criticised UEFA, which is fair enough given they're just out for what they can get as well, but he also defended the Fenway Group saying that they must have a reason for what they are doing, they aren't gamblers, and that they are good people. They do have a reason for doing it, money, and the latter two are objectively false given what's transpired. There is no grey area here, and that's what Klopp was trying to aim for like a weasel.
