How about a nice set of draws, pet v The gnashing walls of perpetual whining and phlegm, la.

I think with days like yesterday, whatever our feelings on it, it's worth remembering that we're going to get the last laugh on this and every other score that needs settling over the coming years.

Aye, but we haven't been able to buy a win for 6 games so unless we sort our shit out they will be waving at us on the way past in 2 games time 

We've won 2 of the last 6, won 4 of the last 8 games. 

 

After the League Cup Final, we've got Man City away, which will be rough, but then Wolves and Forrest which should be winnable games. We'll have Pope and Bruno back in the team.

 

Liverpool were second best against 10 men for 70 minutes. I could easily see them dropping points, especially with their commitments in the CL.

Somewhat amused at some of the comments suggesting Pope's red card was harsh. It absolutely wasn't. He went to head the ball, stumbled and as he fell his forearms cupped around the ball. Whether it was muscle memory or not, it was a deliberate act to prevent Salah getting to the ball from which he'd most likely have scored. Absolutely the correct call to send him off. It's cruel as fuck man, but it is what it is. 

As for ASM, he was indeed our best player but that's the first time he's properly turned it on since the Man City game - that was 6 months ago today! Before that the game he made the most signifcant impact was Everton at home which was over a year ago. He reminds me a bit of Sissoko in that he'll turn up for a big game and then go missing in others. Undoubtedly mercurial when he's on his game but it just doesn't happen enough for me. If Willock is fit for Wembley, he starts for me.

So, to clarify, you acknowledge that ASM will turn up for a big game yet you'd have him on the bench for this upcoming biggest of big games?

I get the point you're making but correct. The emphasis was more on the fact he turns up once every six months so yep, I'd give Willock the start.

I was seething with frustration following Pope's red card. My phone was inundated with messages from frustrated fans, and I feared we might face further setbacks. However, after a shaky recovery, we managed to endure the onslaught.

 

In the second half, we clearly dominated, and the team displayed resilience, delivering some commendable performances. Maxi shone brightly, but I must applaud Longy as well for his tight football and ball-winning prowess. Despite the loss, my outlook on the game significantly improved by the final whistle.

who the fuck is this cunt?
