Just checking his stats, last season he played 1941mins for the Arse, scored 3goals and had 8 assists. This season with us he's played 1561mins, scored 5goals and had 5 assists. Has he improved that much on end product with us?

Only in the past month or so

He reached his best season return by a few months ago, he's definitely improving under Klopp, he's got raw talent and we've used it with much more focus than Arsenal did. I sort of scoffed at the idea of him being a central midfielder, but it's worked, so fair play to Klopp for recognising that.

One thing we can say about Klopp is that his ability to put together a front line is brilliant, as is his uncanny ability to turn certain breeds of midfielder into something totally different. I thought his deployment of Lallana and Gini in a midfield last season together was asking for trouble, but it mostly worked brilliantly.

 

[Woland]

The last two games, bar Salah, he's arguably been the most decisive player for us. That could be a blip but I'm hoping he's just improving a lot

 

[mark1975]

Yeah, aside from the usual match winners, we could really do with a big game performer, cf Kuyt.

 

[Bradley]

If that's a play on LEEEEEEROOOOOY JENKINS!!!!! then you should not be ashamed at all.

It sure is. His encouraging start to his Liverpool career has ruined what I thought was going to become an internet high point for me.

Just found this quote from me from 15th August 1993

Somewhere.....a kid has just been born. I dont think he will change the world or anything but one day could be a really good part of a squad for us.

Quite happy with that considering I made it 25 years ago

 

[Fabio]

To be fair, we've all done well

I managed to unearth this from a couple of years ago

that mark Chamberlain who's just signed for Portsmouth. His Mrs is pregnant. Bet that kids gonna be an option for us in the future.

Shame about the potential double barreled name though

back when consciousness was just a gas, I predicted the primordial soup from which all organic life would arise with the following quote posted to an IRC channel 4 million years ago

יום אחד יהיה קופה אשר יבקיע נגד החרא השני

 

[Oncy]

I remember once, millenia ago I threw a bone at another pile of bones and grunted.

This is what I meant.

I remember, millennia ago thinking to myself
"Why do I hang around with these stupid cunts"
Some people never learn

Can't be arsed to trawl through the old thread to see what I said if anything.
Though i would have probably said; good player, costs too much.
Still, better than paying too much for useless lumps like some others in the League

I hope this doesn't sound racist but doesn't that look more like a picture of Gini?

 

[keniget]

Ha poor Avvy will never live that down.

If Avvy says it’s the Ox, it’s the Ox.

Live it *down*?!

He set the bar so high, that nobody can ever get even close. It's immortal.

I do agree that it does look a lot like Wijnaldum, but that's probably intentional. Who knows? Or even dares ask?
