RE Modo and Ian Wright: I agree. He's a good spud.
Hahahaha. This is publishable.Of all days to follow THAT... I'd promised to visit an elderly relation to do a few odd-jobs etc, and, after completing a few chores, I noticed her freezer was full of seriously out of date stuff. So I went and bought her some fresh food. The problem was that she's of the age when throwing out even old food is seen as a terrible waste, so I wanted to be furtive about the whole thing. But she lives in a fecking area where you can barely throw anything out anyway thanks to the hyper-specific bag/bin categorisations. (I'm really feeling the effects of, er, a glass too many from the night before by now, and time is running out and I'm getting impatient and desperate.) So after making vague inquiries as to where, er, 'waste' might be dumped, and getting no clear answer, I thought, 'Fuck it - i'll take the stuff out of the boxes and throw it up the garden' (she's got quite a big garden and she never goes out there until about March time) - leave it be eaten up before she knows it. Fine, except the last fecking out of date frozen cod steak slipped out of my hand and broke a pane in the fecking greenhouse. So now I'm in a pathetic state. I go back in and decide to brazen it out: 'Do you know there's a crack in your green house?' 'WHAT??? What on earth do you think caused THAT???' In one of those weird brain blips, I heard myself saying, 'It could have been a squirrel' Pathetic. Just unbelievably pathetic. So now she's raging at squirrels. She's absolutely furious about them. Then of course I insisted on arranging to pay for someone to come in and fix her greenhouse, amidst her protestations that I was far too kind and shouldn't be paying for what those terrible creatures do to greenhouses. What a fecking day! Fecking Gooners!
People seem to go OTT when were actually playing well. We were not shockingly awful in parts. We were sloppy and Arsenal countered a few times but that doesn't make us shockingly awful. I'd reserve that expression for the painting by numbers football we experienced under Hodgson.Firminio Goal aside, I thought we were awful in the first half.. shockingly awful at parts..
Arsenal where just far far worse than us..
We played the best football in the second half, looked a more solid unit, but scored less goals
Funny old game football, isn't it...
Never start by reading a Dreamy post mate. You need to build up to that kind of thing.
.....
Hopefully we batter the cunts and knock the last vestige of belief out of them.
That's a fair analysis. We weren't brilliant at all, very sloppy at times. We weren't 'shockingly awful' either.Well it seems like it isn't just me who isn't buying into the " we were brilliant" narrative regarding yesterdays game.
While we weren't that bad, in truth I though that the scoreline was more a reflection on how awful Arsenal were, mostly but not exclusively in defense than us being good.
We were casual and wasteful at times, sloppy in our passing with Robbo and Fabinho being particularly guilty.
We will need to raise or game for Thursday and I would be surprised if Klopp doesn't realise that too.
The thing in our favour is that Man city don't look like "all that" at the moment.
Hopefully we batter the cunts and knock the last vestige of belief out of them.
I think it is fair to say that we were part of making arsenal be shiteI think people are being extremely harsh on us.
No we weren’t perfect but we were fucking good.
We controlled the game, came from 1 down to lead 4-1 and went on criuse control.
Good sides make you make mistakes and Arsenal are a better side than most we have played this year.
Add to the fact it was at the tail end of the hectic Xmas period and overall that was an excitement performance.
Roll on city
I think it is fair to say that we were part of making arsenal be shite
Fabinho certainly was in the first half..That's a fair analysis. We weren't brilliant at all, very sloppy at times. We weren't 'shockingly awful' either.
Didn't realise you'd gotten into the like-farming game.Love you man !!!
Fabinho looks slower than he actually is, he's tall and has an awkward running style.Fabinho certainly was in the first half..
Absolute Ding bat.. for the first 1/2 hour, with his wayward passes...
A better side could have put us to the sword....
Better from him in the second half.. Its clear for all to see Fabinho qualities, I am certainly a fan, howeve you do feel at times he is struggling to keep up with the pace of the Premier League at times

Hyperbolic or what. He put 2 maybe maybe 3 astray but was otherwise fucking damn good ... you don't go in 4-1 up at HT if your DM is having a mare. And over the full 90 mins he was damn fucking good. I hate it when fans pick up on one or two errors and that then becomes representative of their whole game.Fabinho certainly was in the first half..

What's funny, or downright weird, is how some people view the game. At no time at all were we ever 'shockingly bad'. What is 'shockingly bad' is how you appraise a match.Firminio Goal aside, I thought we were awful in the first half.. shockingly awful at parts..

Has anyone got a link to the Inside Anfield for this match? Great way to usher in the new year!
Link?The echo does a post match podcast which features fans calling in their mini reviews.
One of the regulars on that keep a talking about 'squash buckling' football that makes me chuckle.
Then there's one called Owen from 'Kop On Podcast' who sounds like a member of the royal family.
It's a great listen if you can be arsed
Has anyone got a link to the Inside Anfield for this match? Great way to usher in the new year!
I think it's in here
