Mignolet is ok > he’s s***, he’s had his chance before > Get Karius in, at least he’s young > oh he’s even more s*** than Mignolet > get Mignolet back in, he’s improved since last year > back to stage 1. Rinse and repeat. ’s funny cos’ it’s true
"The dream was we would come here on the back of new owners and win the game but there is no point in attempting to analyse dreams. This would have been the ideal opportunity to turn things around on the back of the positive entry of the new owners and to get a result here would have been Utopia." Doesn’t make me angry anymore, but instead makes me laugh now. Well in, Hodgy!
I like this sort of thinking. Let's get ourselves into the top 4 so that we can aim for the real ambition between the football seasons. Challenge for the transfer window!
Putting the City game into context, it's only three points lost at one of the hardest fixtures of the season. No-one is flying at the moment. Every team has had a stumble or two already. Ours just looks worse than it was IMO due to the sending off. We're only three points off the top. The defense is a worry for sure but I'm still expecting us to be up there challenging at the end of the season.
This was a bit of a freak game so let's write the result off. The defense though? Klavan? Moreno? Alexander-Arnold is a kid as well. And Mignolet has his issues. Never gonna challenge for a title with them all in the starting eleven in one of our most important games of the season.
Well. Didn't like it when all and sundry were saying we'll beat them easy. Fine margins mind. Mane makes it to the ball 0,1 seconds earlier and their keeper goes.
Stop this madness. If this was any other team's player kicking a keeper's head like that - intent or not - no-one in their right mind would be challenging that red. Can't play much more dangerously than high foot to someone's head. Really annoying as we were clearly the better team up until that moment. Salah should do some extra training with his finishing.
