Am I the only one who was actually rooting for a Liverpool win!? 

I couldn't bare the thought of another club going unbeaten for a season... I know it was highly unlikely but only a handful of teams can cope with Haaland and KDB and Liverpool are one of them.

I'm not fussed about Arsenal as of yet .. as Tomo alludes to, their squad depth isn't strong enough to keep this going for the whole season.

I was there with you for other reasons, though. 

There isn't a chance another team will go unbeatable in our lifetimes.

Perfect result for us also. If we win one game in hand we are just one point behind City and this is where title race is. Arsenal will fall at one point for sure. 

Well done to Boehly for pulling a trigger early on. If we waited for so long it would be over already. 

I have switched off the title race talk. I think Kante, Fofana and Reece out for the next month - we will do well to stay within touching distance. Kepa saved the team yesterday

"Alisson Becker has MORE assists than Jack Grealish this calendar year - with Liverpool's goalkeeper's pass for Mo Salah's winner against Manchester City taking his 2022 tally to two... one ahead of £100m playmaker"

Forest v Liverpool

Lingard so frustrating - obvious talent but cant be arsed half the time, offside when he shouldnt be etc

[ZAPHOD2319 4,552]

Forest score!

[Fulham Broadway 16,980]

Been the better team so far...

[Fulham Broadway 16,980]

Lingard off -not before time

[DDA 9,734]

Look at what the ref is giving free kicks for in favour of Liverpool!

You're telling me football isn't corrupt. 

Unreal.

[ZAPHOD2319 4,552]

Nice save by Henderson

[Fulham Broadway 16,980]

Forest keeper has been Kepaesque

[ZAPHOD2319 4,552]

Should have been 2-0 from Yates

[DDA 9,734]

Ref is soo fucking biased it makes me sick.

Clear fucking example there. They obviously want Liverpool to get a late sneakqualiser

[ZAPHOD2319 4,552]
