Stones out for over a month now. I would say Liverpool have a great opportunity, but they did make unwanted history last season by blowing a massive lead.

Wow they are in big defensive trouble. Only CB they have now is Otamendi and he is shit. Btw he is also now their tallest player with just 1.83cm. Every PL should exploit that issue. But no, watch us concede more goals from set pieces next month.

They are going to have to use Walker and the rapidly ageing Fernandinho as CB's. I so laugh at the most expensive team in the world making no moves for a CB this summer. It was a Chels board level move of incompetency. Otamendi (who turns 32 in a few months as well) is SHIT too, has been for ages. The year (2017-18) he made all-EPL first team was a fucking joke. He was burnt so many times that year, but the voters only saw his 5 (4 league) goals and a shedload of passes (95% of them tiki-taka 2 or 3 metres ones). He had ZERO assists all comps that year as well. So much of it had to do with his 54th minute game winning goal versus Manure (he never scored again after that all year in the EPL after that December 10th goal.)

Very bad stats with Stones-Otamendi pairing and now Stones is out as well. Pep said yesterday in press conference he's probably going to use Rodri as CB. I forgot about him, actually he's their tallest player but still they have height issues.

I so wonder why Pep doesn't use Walker as a CB, which Walker has played at multiple times for England.

That also allows him to use Cancelo, a top 3 in the world RB, as a starter too.

I just cannot celebrate a goal spontaneously, not possible anymore.

And what is it with Tottenham and the VAR calls?! So boring and frustrating.

They are being taking care of.....just like utd. 40% of all pens gone to utd.....that alone stinks to high heaven to me.
