Media and Arts / Re: Alan Partridge - including Alpha Papa

Was at the Abba Voyage thing in London on Saturday.

When Voulez-Vous was on I couldn't help thinking about that Abba medley, Alan danced to on KYKMWAP

Can someone post the vid up from YouTube please?

Former LFC Players / Re: Sadio Mané

I know, I was being a bit flippant.

It's icky though. Can we agree on icky

The norms we have in Liverpool are not the standard and benchmark for any other people and culture around the world.

It might be 'icky' to you (however you define that) but nothing wrong with marriage between two consenting adults.

I, for one, would wish them all the very best.
Great player and I wish him and his wife all the very best in life. Everyone deserves happiness regardless of the limited perspective of onlookers and commentators.

That’s probably because he’s missed a lot of chances Salah has created for him.

Like the pass against West Ham?

One of the big issues for me is that if you play a 9 then you want wide players or runners getting to the byeline and pulling the ball back. For that to happen you want wide players on their natural foot beating their man and pulling it back or midfield runners making third-man runs in between the centre backs and full backs like Szobo was earlier in the season.

We don't have that. We have Diaz and Salah as inverted wide players. Salah in particular tends to not take on his man but puts in passes with the outside of his foot. They look great when they come off but are much harder to finish than pullbacks.

Look at how many opportunities City create from pullbacks from the byeline.

Liverpool FC Forum / Re: Mohamed Salah - Best in the World *

I mean, plans are meaningless until Slot comes in, right?

Maybe but I’d be amazed if discussions about Salah, Trent and VvD weren’t part of the interview process with Slot or any other prospective manager.

We’lll know what Salah is thinking. We’ll know what Hughes and Edward’s think. I’d guess we’d have an idea what Slot thinks.

Briefing the media that he’s likely to stay is probably because he’s likely to stay plus it potentially dampens any of him leaving chat as a fallout from the weekend. Alternative hypothesis is that we are protecting his value by looking like reluctant sellers.

Personally I don’t think you give up someone who scores 20+ goals a season. Even less so with a potentially tricky manager transition and Q marks about all the other attacking options.

But those team lineups are correct. You not wanting to believe something or disliking the fact it was revealed doesn't make it untrue, any more than I would choose to disbelieve a weather report just because it predicted rain.Please stop replying so I can spare you the embarrassment of having to explain what an aggregated article is.

You mean stop replying to your bullshit with facts. By all means be critical of our players and manager but kindly don't try and back it up with untruthful articles.
And stop taking yourself so serious

He can only mean that if Taylor hasn't blown up.

It's over at that stage as Taylor has stopped the game. All that happens before Gakpo is at the ball

Not going to happen

Yeah that was what they meant - that's why the c*nt whistled, he fucking knew Areola was fine, he told him about 3 or 4 times to get up and get on with it. Warnock said, Cody shouldn't have asked if it was OK and instead just nipped in and put it away, that would have screwed Taylor right up.

How old was Lewandoski when he moved to Barca?

They’re different players.

I personally think shouts about Salah’s decline are overwrought at the moment, but you’re not going to have upper tier CL level clubs lining up for Salah to play on the wing next year.

We must ask for audio of this situation.
There is literally not a single redeeming point for Taylor.
He did it to stop us from scoring.

I checked and he's been a ref since 2002 (when he was 23), so he's one of the most experienced refs around. All these "incompetence" excuses don't really carry water unless he had a bad head injury last summer.
