In the Alex Ferguson school of "Bail to protect the legacy" - The difference is, Ferguson won everything, repeatedly, including winning the league with a tired, ageing squad in his last season and Klopp has won everything once, and royally shat the bed with a much younger squad .. Slot is going to have to cash in on Salah to the Saudis and they won't be able to afford a suitable replacement. Unless he's a top class manager, Liverpool could be absolutely fucked next year. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Man Utd have mostly been there since Fergie left… they've fallen away since fergie left but they've still been in and around the top 6 and picking up the odd trophy - enough to keep sky wanking over the "big six" i want them both down in 8th and 9th next season and for the likes of us and villa to continue upending the narrative. force the cunts to accept there are other clubs worth talking about on merit. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think I said that before the takeover happened. Clubs like Man Utd and Liverpool would need an extended time away from Europe, or a catastrophic collapse to fall out of consideration. They could spend 3 seasons bobbling between 8th and 12th, and some hockling scrote would still name them as 'dark horses to get CL football'. We can absolutely become a regular contender for the top spots, but their wealth, contemporary strength and infrastructure means they're really unlikely to fall out of contention that far or for too long. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Slot does have all the pundits cooing about him, but then so did Brendan Rodgers. Given they make c£800m in revenue, they've got tremendous spending power, enough to bin off a bad manager and his bad signings. You'd need a succession of poor appointments to really damage their standing. Same is true with Man Utd, the difference is, the Glazers (and hopefully INEOS) appear way less competent than FSG. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The big six bullshit comes from Man City and Spurs moving their tanks on to the lawns of Liverpool Man Utd Arsenal and Chelsea in the last decade. Anyone remember the big 4?

At least three of those would've been the protagonists behind the proposed new league, (PL), with sky whispering sweet nothings into their ears. Those clubs happened to be in the two main regional stations who did the football for ITV, Granada and Thames, and if you ever saw ITV's coverage when they had the football rights it showed!

No, actually that's never going to happen. ‘Right then, we’ve got Spurs v Man City coming up. Who are we getting on commentary?’ ’Well boss, seeing as it’s a pivotal game in the title run in maybe we should get two co-commentators so we hear both sides?’ ’Great idea son, great idea. Neville and Carragher it is then. You’ll go far with ideas like that.’ 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
