Getting told that the Arsenal fans are becoming a bit restless already ED,I’ve had a flutter on the USPGA so that’s why I’ve swerved the Footy Tonight.

11th August 2017 at 9:31 pm #3571They were mate. To be fair, I think they’ve been restless long before the season began. I doubt many wanted Wenger to carry on after last season.
Brilliant header Giroud. There goes the entertainment on Arsenalfantv βΊοΈ

11th August 2017 at 9:36 pm #3572And to think Giroud isn’t everyone’s cup of tea there, I like Him and as He’s proved time and again He will produce the goods when needed.

11th August 2017 at 10:01 pm #3579He’s so dangerous in and around the box. He’ll be a good alternative for them off the bench if nothing else

12th August 2017 at 9:15 am #3593AnonymousLooking forward to the first televised game today. If the Liverpool that turned Bayern over turn up, Watford won’t have any answer to that. However, only a day has passed since their star player requested to leave so that won’t help their preparations.

12th August 2017 at 9:46 am #3595Cantona, if any team are open against luveroool they are in trouble but I fully expect Watford to sit back. Silva masterminded a 2-0 win fir hull Last year against us. Our defence is a worry but o expect us to win 1-0

12th August 2017 at 10:53 am #3596Not like you to predict an away win Sean! I think you’re probably right though. Still, it’s not an easy game

12th August 2017 at 1:03 pm #3597Say what you like, but it isn’t the year of the defense, is it? Knotter must be exploding with all this non-Italian defending… π

12th August 2017 at 2:55 pm #3607Two matches I’ve seen now. If you don’t have your nail your colours to the mast and just enjoy a game of football, then great, but if you have the knowledge and have the experience, you will know as well as I do that the quality overall was flattering because the defending especially from my team quite frankly is shocking.
Not seeing the 90 minutes off is one thing, but having to re-live in not being able to hold out 90 minutes and conceding soft goals from set-pieces really is just poor and a consistent feeling of being back to square one.
Pre-season games are now replaced by these mini-tournaments, but with Liverpool, I just can’t believe from all the time we had that we still find ourselves in a position of the same howlers and not being able to set up properly and professionally as a defensive unit.
We really are burying our heads in the sand or JK isn’t able to get the targets he needs to address the defence.
Instead of attempting bid after bid on VVD, we should map out a list of names and alternatives we can sign and put together a defensive unit that will gell. This is Jurgen Klopp’s second full season in charge and why do we still have Brendan Rodgers’ players? What’s Moreno even doing in the first 11?
At times when it’s needed, we still are not ruthless enough. Wijnaldum should have made it 4 and put the game to bed – what’s he even doing trying to head the ball down?! Put it in row Z!!!!! Jeez for heaven’s sake, I know we’ve barely come through the entrance doors of the new season, but I can sort of envisage this to sadly go downhill for us with JK losing his job and ultimately leaving us back to square one where we have been for the last 27 years.

12th August 2017 at 3:30 pm #3609AnonymousAgred NB, some of the defending has been shocking so far. Makes it very entertaining for those who’s teams aren’t involved though.
Cahill red card in the Chelsea match. Things not going to plan so far for a couple of teams.

12th August 2017 at 3:46 pm #3611AnonymousAway from the actual matches, is anyone completely bored of the airtime given to Klopp? They literally go nuts for him and show him on camera at every opportunity. It makes me dislike him more than I did due to his completely fake personality.

12th August 2017 at 3:54 pm #3612I wouldn’t say Klopp is fake, he seems more real than most managers to me, wears his heart on the outside more than most managers

12th August 2017 at 3:59 pm #3613Cheers Alfie, ‘mitigating’ circumstances or not, conceding 3 goals even with a man down at home spells a clear problem today with Chelsea’s defence.
Nothing to take away from Burnley in the way they have performed and delivered – they really mean business, but will the tide remain with them after the next 45 minutes?
That would be one hell of a consolation for me as a Liverpool supporter from our earlier embarrassment of the 3-3 draw at Vicarage Road. Game on!
