The OFFICIAL Liverpool FC thread - #DankeJürgen

To all the "no smoke without fire" clowns on here (looking at you smelmoth, MR, straightred etc) this is what the fans were dealing with. Lad just rocking up to scan his ticket at the turnstile and got a faceful of pepper spray for no reason.

I'm asking why? How come the other games all went off well? Why was the approach different?

[J70]

In all seriousness, Liverpool have to be disappointed with their season.

I think they're a fantastic team but they ultimately came away with an FA cup (against a very average Chelsea team on penalties) and a league cup.

The team they have that's unacceptable.

Bottled it in the premiership and filled the togs on the biggest night of them all .

That quadruple talk looks real silly now

Of course Liverpool are disappointed.

But the rest of your post doesn't make any sense.

They didn't bottle it the PL. They got 92 points and lost it by a point to a City team which scored 3 goals in 5 minutes in the last 15 minutes of the season to win it. Liverpool can only control their end. Last night was the first meaningful game they lost in 2022, not forgetting they were 14 points behind City in January. They'll wonder what might have been had a particular game gone differently (Salah scores that penalty away to Leicester, Fabinho buries that late chance against City at Anfield), but every team has games like that. Liverpool are just unfortunate in that they're competing against an all-time great coach with limitless, corrupt resources behind him.

As a Liverpool fan, I think Klopp is doing extraordinary work and the club is being very well run on a self-sustaining basis. I'm disappointed with how the season ended, but it has been a fantastic season to experience and just unfortunately ended by being pipped at the post by two better teams, partly due to a bit more rest. I'm very much looking forward to four more seasons under Klopp as he continues to evolve the team and compete at the top.

Why does quadruple talk look silly?

It is a simple fact that a week ago it was a possibility. With 15 minutes to go and Villa 2 up last week, it was a very strong possibility. There was plenty of chat about  City doing it those couple of seasons when they were in with a shout with a month to go. And why the hell not? Everyone acknowledges that things can and do go wrong and that it is ultimately probably not going to happen, but are the media not supposed to mention that a team like Liverpool this year, or City last year until the lost to Chelsea in the FA Cup semi-final, are still on track to win all four?

Looking forward to the rest from Liverpool FC.

It's been the most intense season ever.

It will all come out soon enough. No evidence whatsoever that Liverpool fans were to blame. In fact all neutral reports from journalists points to Uefa failings.

J70 you are being far too logical for that clown.

Mane leaving according to Fabrizio Romano

No surprise there. He has been in another place this season. You see it in after on field and dressing room celebrations after winning the 2 Domestic Cups, he's never with the main entourage.

[laoislad]

I get the feeling Diaz was meant to be Mane's replacement but they had to buy him early because of the other interest in him.
Would be pleasantly surprised if they do buy someone else to replace Mane but won't hold my breath.

[imtommygunn]

Why is he leaving? Is it purely money?

[Milltown Row2]

Why is he leaving? Is it purely money?

Wants to win the league and CL

Good point. Origi gone too and we're looking a bit light up front.

[Kidder81]

He already has 

I'm assuming more money elsewhere, Liverpool wouldn't be falling over themselves to break the bank for a player who is 30.

I get your point but he usually stays away from the booze spraying etc as he's a strict Muslim. I have read somewhere before he asks players not to spray it near him

Phenomenal season!

Played every game possible is unbelievable, plus Mane and Salah having to go to the African championships and playing every game there. Unreal to come away with two firsts and two seconds in the four competitions. Of course 4 out of 4 was the aim, albeit unrealistic, but we've managed to win both the league and European Cup very recently, against the odds, so that eases the disappointment considerably.

We can't compete with City in the transfer market , so to get within a point of the league and be ahead of them in the other three comps is a fantastic achievement.

Probably in for a dip next season, but one thing we know is that they'll give 100% in every game. The team has a number of weaknesses, but this season was the best of times for a Liverpool supporter and I enjoyed every single second, notwithstanding that we can't win every game

[Milltown Row2]

To quote the legend:

"If you are first you are first. If you are second you are nothing"

So two outta four ain't bad but save me the so many points crap, that's down to how poor the other teams are in the league this year!!

The teams were even more crap last year to allow Utd to be in the same position.

Liverpool will need to replace Mane and have better replacements than Milner also Trent needs to apply a defensive part to his game, teams target that area for a reason.
