Why are Chelsea so awful? They have infinite money, good players (although there are loads I’ve never heard of on every team sheet) and a good manager. What the f*** is going on?

It was Udogie not Bissouma and there was contact. The wider points about refs being awful stands though. It winds me up that all they want to do is crack down on criticism as opposed to improve.

None of us are experts in the laws of the physical universe but I don’t think that everything else is just the same. Like that game in Europe where Darwin hits the post and Grav scores the rebound. There’s no way if Darwin scores that Gravenberch also then scores that goal. Actually let’s take another thing. If Fulham’s goal to go 3-2 up gets wrongly disallowed then they probably leave Anfield saying that they were robbed. But in a twist of fate in the real world, have your 3-2 lead and f*** you Fulham.

This isn’t true. They just have played so well in the last few games. The title is there to be won cos they kept scoring.

But here’s my goal again in case you missed it

Why do these people have to believe they are the sole moral actors in a world where everyone else is corrupt. Is it not tiring? Do they not feel ridiculous? Someone tell them that they are loved so they don’t feel so lonely and bitter.

Surely it John Welsh’s time to shine. He’s been better than Gerrard at the youth levels.

Yeah but if they were true then they would be hard to ignore.

Good! He plays for us too. I think Darwin is more likely to help us win games and leagues (especially during the calendar years that Jota has off) but needs to develop.

How’s he reliable when he doesn’t score for a year. That’s really bad. Anyway I’m not saying Darwin shouldn’t have scored from a yard against Luton. I think his brain needs to calm down but in the meanwhile he does genuinely do a lot to make us better.

Oh my God! These people need girlfriends.

I think Saka is so so good but you can’t compare him to Mo yet. That’s madness. Anyway who cares. The whole world is clickbait and over excited 20 somethings proving a point

Are you talking about when he slipped into that tackle. That was a genuine slip. Alonso should not have had a second yellow when it happened to Fabrgas that time. We all agreed on that.

I don’t think any of them were the level you associate with them at Ryan’s age. The boy has huge talent. I honestly think we have a patience issue. I can’t imagine some of you being line managers. I wish he could have given a pass yesterday.

Is he their Southgate. Not s*** enough to chop.

I’m saying that his style attracts more criticism than is warranted and shields some from his value. Others look all graceful and get an easier ride despite often doing less. I think Jota is fantastic (probably more so than you as you think he is bad with the ball) but he goes a year without scoring and is hyper streaky but is seen as reliable. Darwin has things to work on but he was playing genuinely well and I back him to get better at kicking the ball 1 yard more accurately. I mean the second clause of that sentence is a wild thing today unironically but here we are

I agree. The results are the results and the table looks right. I genuinely think the team is ahead of schedule but they just need to take advantage of being where they are and just find a way to get points until they are formed. League wise, they are probably a bit ahead of the 16-18 team or maybe it’s just that there is no Chelsea/Man City equivalent. I think it’s a mixture of him trying not to be biased and him being a massive fanny because he is so invested. I think he’s @Barnesy_10 in a match thread if he was told he had to be neutral to save his family or something. Yeah. He literally did before.

I’ve got to stop watching it. Arsenal forced the error in that all their players didn’t just walk off the pitch when Mo got the ball. It was hardly the Jedi mind s*** that Virgil did to Spurs that time.

It never goes in

It was 2.5 months ago we had legit the best options in the league. I’m not having it that they all need to go. They just need to get back to themselves. Obviously sign Mbappe though.

His performance really turned into something special. I think outside of the silly number of injuries he picks up, there was a genuine dip in form for a month or so. Yesterday saw him at his normal level which is fantastic.

Is there anyone in the youth team that I can pin a crippling amount of expectation on?

Can you imagine if Darwin was responsible for some of the nonsense in attacking positions yesterday. Oh my God!

Of all the humans who have ever been in a place and time to do the thing that the combination of their DNA makeup and every dialectic of history is demanding, WHY DID YOU NOT f***ING SHOOT!

Carragher said something that I agree with. If this Liverpool team is going to hit the heights then Darwin and Salah are two starters and you work around them. Gakpo has huge quality but I think it’s a bit pseud to act like he has a better effect on the team than Darwin. People are entrenched on the boy. Not like me who is open minded and balanced about him.
