True that.
Our problems were bigger though for the formation we like to play. Diaz's signing made all the difference to us and it's the first time under Klopp we had strength in depth up front. The damage to our compaign was done in the first half of the season when we didn't have him.
Nobody thought we would be in for a shout for the title after coming 4th the season before. Most people thought Chelsea would be the most likely challengers. So no, we shouldn't have won the league considering where the team was this time last year.
Yea, fingers crossed that turns into an issue for them but Alvarez is supposedly able to play on the right and Foden/Silva seem to have some flexibility still. Imo it’ll be two injuries to any one position before you’ll even notice a difference to City (except fullback and keeper)
I thought we'd challenge for the league and only idiots thought we wouldn't given that the reason we didn't the prior year no longer existed.
I sense some hyperbole. We played a motivated side away last weekend. Still doesn't excuse dropping 2 points but it is what it is.
We'll see how it affects us in the long run.
What bothers me more right now are all these fake stories about midfielders we're supposedly buying.

Bellingham incoming. City already have a good relationship with Dortmund.
I wouldn’t class Salah as a striker but a wide forward who scores lots of goals. Like Mahrez.
That’s what makes me think we did something crazy in training last week. The difference in the two sides was chalk and cheese.
i didn’t want to say it but yea and it has been mentioned before on the forum that Chelsea will also be shopping for Jorginho / Kante replacements soon. May well be out of our salary range next summer
I didn't say Salah was a striker, but he scores a shitload more goals than Mahrez so this is a fucking stupid conversation anyway.
Once we know we aren’t spending any of our emergency cash we’ll sign Bellingham for next season. Just like we did with Keita.
I’m agreeing with you. On both Mahrez isn’t a striker (like Mo) and it’s a stupid conversation.
i look forward to torturing ourselves in January thinking that it may be possible to bring the move forward
Dictionary definition of striker : the player who is to strike the ball in a game; a player considered in terms of ability to strike the ball: a gifted striker of the ball. • a forward or attacker.
Steven Gerrard is one of the most gifted strikers of the ball I’ve ever seen. Played as an attacker under Benitez. Would you call him a striker?
Don't like the dictionary definition? I don't give a fuck. I'll continue to call him a striker, you do whatever you want.
I am not sold on him either
Woosh.
He’s overhyped.
If it helps us win the league this season, it's long term enough for me.
I've seen Keita play for Liverpool and he's not overhyped-- just not frequently available. But I'll agree to disagree with those who think he's overhyped as I do with those who think Bellingham is the next best thing.
No I mean klopp had a long term plan when he bought keita. It was the opposite of a panic buy, he waited a year, but I don't think we got value for money.
kill me now
