Stoke v Liverpool Match Thread

[doctor_mac]

I'd love to read that thread again. Some of us should pat ourselves on the back there.

21 games. 17 goals. Insane!

I've got a red hand on my back I've been patting it so much.

 

[Hansern]

Most of you said so.

The thread was about who could be the best at FIFA 18, right?

The pat on the back is rescinded if you said 'Ibe' in that there thread about Ibe & Sterling.

I'm pretty sure I didn't. I just made silly jokes about Ibe having a higher ceiling than Sterling. But Sterling only needed a little ceiling, because he's a small chap.

 

[moron]

That was not good viewing until the second goal. I hate the way our team defended today - it was really edge of your seat shit.

 

[ILD]

Not to worry, Ibe will be just as good.

I remember Peterhague claiming that if we sell them Sterling it will mean they will have wasted 50 million and it will stop them signing someone else.

- City went on to also sign KDB.

 

[Red Astaire]

I just want to take the opportunity to again remind the people who argued against Salah being signed and called him the Egyptian Pennant. You did that.

Who said that man?

Isn't that every damn game

 

[Red Astaire]

Hahaha

Tagging @Mystic 😀

Didnt comment actually 🙂

Unfortunately yes - both home and away. It's like they like the idea of this edge shit. Still we managed not to concede despite the stupidity at times.

[Modo]

We are not catching them regardless.

We ain't winning no league. That race is over.

 

[moron]

Can I just say - I was happy that Solanke got some game time even at the cost of Salah. Besides we don't want a race discrimination case against LFC - poor Salah might claim 'boss - why I not get rest like Mane on Saturday - when I get rest ?' - well he got it now so no discrimination cases.

 

[KopRed]

Ox and Solanke were very good today i thought, and we rested some players so all is good.

Saw this early and laughed out loud, the fuck are Burnley doing up there! Poor the Spurs.

Was thinking exactly the same thing !!! - I had to take a second look at the table and think what the fuck !!! - just shows you don't need to spend gazillions if you can get the fuckers motivated to play in each game. That is the major difference between the top teams and the ones that you tend to think should belong in the lower half.

 

[the count]

I am not sure if it's true but I seen a stat that Henderson made zero tackles during the game.
Fucking rubbish.

Fucking rubbish.

Not sure if it’s true but it seems he was all but invisible on the pitch until the 89th minute.
Shocking.

[Glen C]

Most of you said so.

PETERHAGUE what happened to him?

 

[localny]

Looks like a great in on the road. The kind of game we would have struggled to win before. Plus a clean sheet.

Was it defensively improved? Joe Allen missed a sitter, I see.

Sadio Mane is our next best with 4

 

[HC]

Citeh have four...

 

[tombrown]

PETERHAGUE what happened to him?

He's holed up with Teresa May waiting in terror for the inevitable Corbyn arrival

 

[Atlas]

What's happened to Lukaku?after his goal a game goals a few months back he seems to have hit a wall

 

[Hansern]

I just sold him for my Fantasy team, he'll be back scoring some goals against Arsenal now..

Yeah, I know. Fuck my Fantasy team.

 

[MomoWASright]

He’s always been a purple patch kind of striker.

Once Ibrahimovic is fully fit I expect Lukaku to be dropped.

 

[Modo]

Not sure if it’s true but it seems he was all but invisible on the pitch until the 89th minute.
Shocking.

Probably what got us the win.
