Laylabelle 9,535 Posted October 9, 2022 Share Posted October 9, 2022 Looking at the fixtures atm there's no one playing like this they look likely to drop points against...shall see but...theyre not the same team as last season Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DDA 9,941 Posted October 9, 2022 Share Posted October 9, 2022 If we win our game in hand we are only 5 points behind them. Imagine if we had beaten Leeds and Saints. We would somehow be top. Let that sink in. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Compare that to us who can rotate 7 and still easily win, that will tell in a season like this. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Blue Armour 4,448 Posted October 9, 2022 Share Posted October 9, 2022 Tim Howard is calling Arsenal the most well rounded team after City. Disagree that they're well rounded. They still seem to have that soft underbelly that can be exploited. But yes, they are the best team after City in the league at the moment. They just seem relentless in attack, constantly swarming the opposition box. And Liverpools defense which is already short in confidence and form was there to be exploited. And their old ass midfield can't press like they used to. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vesper 30,202 Posted October 9, 2022 Share Posted October 9, 2022 go back and look at dozens of posts of mine, starting well over a year ago, maybe even 2 years ago, about Pool setting themselves up for a decline with an ageing team Salah has been shit since he turned 30 Mane was showing signs of age Firmino has surprisingly had a wee bit of a comeback, but the fact he and not Darwin is their best CF atm speaks volumes but that central MF is meh, some old, tired, and so limited, especially when Thiago is not playing well Naby Keïta Curtis Jones Thiago Arthur Melo Jordan Henderson Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain James Milner Jota has not kicked on, and even Diaz has cooled off VVD is deffo in decline (he has never been the same since that bad injury), as is Matip Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I do highly rate the former though, if Liverpool are going back to Rodgers/Kenny/early Klopp days hopefully he doesn't waste his prime years there.

Arsenal have no experience of it and Conte collapses when faced with a packed schedule. Dare I say in a crazy season like this we may be able to sneak into (outside) title contention if Potter masters rotation going forward aswell as he did yesterday.

Vesper 30,202 Posted October 9, 2022 Share Posted October 9, 2022 FSG (Pool owners) is panicking over their main team, the Boston Red Sox, who had a horrid year (for them) and they will dump in hundreds of millions to sort them Boehly doesn't have that issue at all with the Dodgers as he has other owners and investors who have well over 100 billion combined (plus the Dodgers have INSANE revenue each year and they just won the most games ever (111) for a National League club in the 150 year history of the league, other than that deadball era 1906 Cubs team, who played in a terrible league that year, a small small number of teams who they just beat the shit out of over and over), plus he has Clearlake's 50 billion backing Chels (and buying up sister clubs soon) plus the other Chels billionaires involved Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Either way considering where they were last season and way they started this one isn't bad. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MoroccanBlue 5,383 Posted October 9, 2022 Share Posted October 9, 2022 Yeah I remember @Vesper and I a couple years back that predicted this. So far its come to fruition. The main point was that the basis of Liverpool's success under Klopp was the sale of Coutinho, which funded them VVD, Salah, Fabinho, Allison, etc. It was evident they would need this kind of funding to replace them and FSG are too skint with the Red Sox to care.
