The Liverpool FC Thread XIV

Would it be too biased to say Sakho is somewhere in the top 10 defenders in the PL?

I would love to have a mini Klopp doll. Miles better than any barbie doll. @Lyrical Prodigy


I just watched the highlights and gosh Coutinho the little beauty! I can see him and Benteke developing a really good partnership providing we can keep Benteke fit. Winning 3-1 away against Chelsea is absolutely fantastic. I love how Klopp went in for the win rather than playing safe and trying to get the draw, I am certainly changing from doubter to believer.

Coutinho's goals were absolutely fantastic but I don't think he had a great game overall tbh. Hoping these goals kick off his form again.

Liverpool have now played 6 of their hardest 7 away fixtures so far with 9 points in those 6 fixtures: 2 wins (Stoke and Chelsea), 3 draws (Spurs, Everton, and Arsenal) and only 1 loss (United).

Man City are the other big fish to play away from home.

He can be quite anonymous in games but the thing is he can also come out of nowhere and change the game i.e. yesterday. The 2 goals away at Chelsea will certainly up his confidence and galvanise the team too. With Benteke back now Coutinho will have more luck linking up front as Benteke is so damn clinical. Coutinho is a bit of a 'sleeper hit' it takes time for him to find his feet but once he finds his form he's a good 'un. It was like last season iirc, it was only until November/December when Coutinho started to really shine in matches and get goals + assists regularly.



All things considered it's not too bad- we are only 4 points off top 4. Not to mention our start to the season has been bit of a whirlwind with all the injuries and BR being sacked abruptly and then Klopp coming in. Our fixtures after City look pretty decent till mid-Jan when we have Arsenal at home.

What's everyones thought on the January transfer window, who/what positions should we target?



Yeah he was caught ball watching, fair play to Ramires for seizing the opportunity. You can't switch off for a moment in the prem, hopefully he'll learn from his mistake.

I think we discussed this before, how you felt that the Liverpool job was a death-trap (for Klopp) and that the top 4 is likely to remain static for a while. The truth is that football just isn't like that, and Klopp is a coach that doesn't fit into rational assumptions.

**** off you ****, who are you, the bringer of truth? You couldn't back up your point last time around, don't waste my time this time around.

Static top four strikes again ol boy

I was actually waiting for this quote. Thought you'd actually wait till you were in the top 4, despite that having zero bearing on the argument. Waited till you beat Chelsea though before striking up the courage, which is amusing.

Didn't get the response I wanted with that last one, bitched out with a non quote, but this will but at least this confirms I hit a nerve with it. Delayed satisfaction but satisfaction none the less.

I just like baiting you to be honest, and given that you didn't bother to quote me on the last one, I didn't even see it till a few days after!

I'm smug as **** we have Klopp tbh

I don't mind it tbh. The Fedal troll was good, I gave you credit for that was the best bait I've been a recipient of, hook line and sinker there. But the afters took the shine off somewhat, and you've just confirmed it ever since. Didn't actually mean not to quote you in there. I knew you'd seen it, you posted mins afterward, I should know I was waiting. Thought I'd played it wrong, was a bit gutted tbh, but as this has proved apparently not.

Fair enough on being smug, arguably/probably the best manager in the league.

No I don't think this proves you hit a nerve with me lol, if you had then I'd have replied then when I blatantly saw it. This is just me coming back for more baiting like the smug ****er I am. I do think the Fedal troll has misguided your perception of me but I don't need the validation there, just the kicks of trolling

FA’s disciplinary department satisfied there was no malice in the forward’s challenge. Likewise Skrtel, with whom Costa has history given their clash in last season’s Capital One Cup semi-final at the same venue, did not make anything of the incident.

Absolutely disgusting. If that had been a Chelsea player on the receiving end, he would've been writhing around like he'd been shot.
