  1. Yeah. That’s why I put if it translates because you are dead correct on that. I don’t know how much you can stand out though. There’s still lads of a standard playing against him. I don’t think the formula is that you need to be twice as quick and kick the ball 4x harder than everyone else. But what is he meant to do other than be comfortably better than them and all the reports are saying he is. Then you watch the video and it’s pure Robertson but with a better chop on to his right side.
  2. This feels harsh. He looks amazing in that. If he could translate that then he’d be brilliant.
  3. Can’t be Stalin without the gulags. Gotta commit. We’re all burnleylivematter1882
  4. Haha. I’m right though. If Barney Ronay penning an article in November 2023 about Ake and Gvardiol being a more solid left side of a defence than Robertson and VVD, in any way diminishes your joy at a league title then go do something else. In the same fashion if you believe Burnleylivesmatter1882 thinking Arsenal have a more creative midfield, has any effect on our title charge then put down the butterfly effect books.
  5. We’ll win the league or we won’t. f*** all these analysts, journos and other fans off. There’s nothing they can add to our experience unless praise from some balloons is what you need to feel good about us. The points totals are the points totals.
  6. f***ing hell! I’m happy to sell Staunton, Venison, Burrows and Nichol to get this lad in the team.
  7. We were brilliant that day, having been awful up there earlier in the season
  8. And so say all of us!
  9. I saw that video when it first came out. I also watch him and think he has had fantastic potential for ages, has occasionally played really well and is now on an upward curve again. I’m exiting the debate about whether he is world class or not as I’m just guessing our definitions are dead different.
  10. Well thanks for that then.
  11. Is he as good as Salah? Has he hit Gerrard’s levels? Am I having this discussion?
  12. Maybe Dunk got tired of telling you that koptalk didn’t own Owen.
  13. Good to see others catching on. Is it weird me having a verse about me in the bible? I don’t know. It’s just something I’ve always lived with. Luke 4:24 Then He added, "Truly I tell you, no prophet is accepted in his hometown forum.
  14. Cos they’re s*** and they’re w*** and they’re rubbish.
  15. Comparisons to Rush are obviously wide of the mark. He’s more an amalgam of Van Basten and Romario.
  16. Depends on how they are used. Look I’m happy for Jones to play for England. He plays for my club and country so I’m extra invested. Not as invested as him though who will be desperate. It’s the likes of Scotland wasting everyone’s time who’s taking our left back out of action that wind me up. They should fold as an outfit or Robertson should quit.
  17. He really was angry wasn’t he. The others there all have their reasons to want Liverpool to lose given who they support but their snivelling was straight out of cartoon where the big bully has his supine hangers on. I’d be shocked if they don’t need showers once they get home.
  18. He could have stayed up. He’s run the maths and thought it’s better to go down. That’s cool. It might have been a better decision for him to stay up as it looked an open goal but I’m glad our lads are thinking along lines of maximising advantage. Him being able to stay up doesn’t mean it wasn’t a pen and refs are that bad that they don’t get given if someone stays up. I reckon some of our fans insisting that he couldn’t have stayed up will also be some of the same moaning that our players aren’t snide enough compared to other teams. If whenever we do it it’s replaced by some sunshine and lollipops interpretation then yeah, that frustration will hold.
  19. I’ve been saying (because my looks give me the confidence that people want to hear the things I think) that the whole point was just scrap and fight to get enough points to be in contention while this team clicks. If last night was Neo discovering he could dodge bullets then the boys have actually done it. They can just go at it from here with an actual lead. I love this team. I love just getting up and doing the thing regardless of circumstances. They’ve done that so often. That’s what sport is.
  20. We’re not drawing anything playing like that. We’re winning every game 12-3
  21. Depends what you want to do with Maddison and Foden too
  22. I’m sure we’ll keep and eye out for Dundee. I can’t believe how excited I now am about a reserve left back. Could be the perfect understudy to Robbo this lad. We know how we all felt when Take That split and this is arguably 8.4 times bigger than that.
  23. That was the epitome of what the refs are. Don’t do their job and then clamp down on anyone pointing it out (I know that isn’t what Diaz was kicking off about). He should have been booked for doing a rugby tackle. Rugby is a different sport. Like if the keeper used a cricket bat to reverse sweep the ball away but we score from the rebound, I still want a sanction.
  24. Alright. I’ve liked him since he was a kid but there has to be a gap between doing well for Liverpool and Kevin de Bruyne. It’s like “Saka’s doing well. He’s better than Salah” England have a lot of good midfielders so hopefully the poor lad won’t have to don sackcloth anytime soon due to representing his country in a major international tournament.
  25. That’s awesome. Thanks. Even if you were coming on and he was rubbish and you’d taken the time to tell us then that would still be dead nice. I know this is reductive but I wonder where is he at v Calvin Ramsay as he had a lot of similar things said about him as a young fullback in Scotland? Not asking you as he played for another team that isn’t yours about 3 years ago so there is no reason you should know. Just wondering out loud. Is Beck the kid who is related to Rush?
