buwaytress, don’t worry, next season will be much better. I see lots of rival fans laughing at us but I don’t think any other team would cope with what we’ve had happen to us this season. It’s ok, we’ll be back!

I've never really been a English football fan always a neutral but I enjoy watching Liverpool (except when we play and when you beat us 4-0 it's a terrible memory I can't seem to forget). You have nice teams like Chelsea or City playing and even Arsenal sometimes if you catch them on a good day but Liverpool feel very English in their style and their team setup. Even though it's been french, german and spanish in identity at various times but the team as a neutral to watch is always something. You guys will do well, this is a black swan situation for you not of your own fault.

Did not watch the game but from the stats it seems like Brighton destroyed CP in second half. I was really surprised CP managed to get full 3 points yesterday since without Zaha they are usually just cannon fodder.

Leeds game tonight has to have goals in it right? I am thinking about taking both to score since they blanked last time around and I am expecting them to have much better performance tonight.

Stats show 16 shots from Brighton versus only 5 shots from Palace and with 25% possession, but many keeper saves. Covid season is hard to predict anything, but in any case football is about luck and this was the game full of it for Palace. How often has Benteke won 3 points for them:)

Crystal Palace ruined a big odds parlay I had yesterday and I had Brighton double chance.That completely destroyed my euphoria of a big win.It was not Brighton fault though as that shot in the 95 minute was great and I have no one except bad luck to blame.In terms of points this round is extremely bad for me so I am looking forward to the next.

Yeah, a bit of an upset here as only 4 people backed the away win. I thought Brighton should have been able to get this job done especially at home.

Yeah, I'm thinking maybe both teams to score and Leeds to win. It's another tricky game for me given both teams recent performances. I could see either a load of goals or maybe even a 0-0. Southampton drew against Chelsea last week but before that they lost their last 5 premier league games including the 9-0 drubbing to Man U.

There's still the Leeds game today and a correct result there can get me the round win but I'll probably not be this close to the yellow cap so soon again.

Looks like a lot of people are in the running for the yellow cap:



You'd need a minimum of an exact score to win it but if hahay gets a point from the outcome it's out of reach.

Damn! That was really a heart wrenching goal from Crystal Palace in the dying minutes, I was overly ecstatic about getting fully 3 points in the match, but I'd have to make do with another zero point fixtures... Those 3 points would have been really important to me as 75% of the pool have gone otherwise  Sad Sad

Same for me, I had 1-1 and was sitting on 14 points. With 3 points there I'd have 17 and would be clear on top because 2 of 3 players in front of me chose Brighton to win and hahay got the correct 2-1 result to go on top.

Klopp or whoever is already deciding on it, should forget this season and start forming a team for the next one. Some of the key players are very bad, it seems like they spent all their energy last season and now act like amateurs.
They still play under a lot of pressure, and it is all the more difficult because there are no satisfactory results, frustration is noticeable in them. They have to get rid of the resulting pressure and start enjoying the game again. Still, I guess, the manager knows better.

Is that actually the number of different pairings on CB positions for Liverpool in this season? I knew it was a big number but this is totally unreal. If I had to guess I would say 10 tops.

Yeah when Henderson went off injured, Nat Phillips and Ozak Kaban became our 18th different CB. Admittedly, Williams has only been used once or twice in Prem League so maybe 2/3 of those pairings below are in league cup/FA cup but still!

VVD-Fabinho
VVD-Gomez
VVD-Curtis (I remember this because we died 7-2 at Villa after Gomez got injured)
VVD-Williams
VVD- Matip (Matip back from injury but VVD's last game)
Fabinho-Gomez
Gomez-Philips
Gomez-Matip
Fabinho-Matip, Fabinho-Milner (I personally thought this was good but guess what Matip injured)
Fabinho-Hendo (December started this nonsense of no CB fit)
Matip-Williams
Fabinho-Williams
Fabinho-Phillips
Hendo-Matip, Hendo-Philips (and we beat spurs and West Ham with this, so we thought, yay we fixed it! we were wrong hahahaha...)
Hendo-Kabak
Phillips-Kabak

This really is a season for creating useless records for ourselves. I can't wait for it to be over really.

the question also arises at the bottom of the table as to who will follow sheffield and west brom into the efl championship next season
from fulham (18th) to burnley (15th), there are still a number of clubs at risk...

... we can start shrugging off this bad season of 18 different CB pairings (read that again!).

City is looking untouchable at the moment so that one is out of the LFC hands.

It is over already for the Premier League and City is from another world level at the moment.For sure now they are all focused in the Champions League and it will be important to see also Liverpool as they are also trying the same.I dream this year a final between City and Liverpool in the Champions.

today there is another game and that is brighton meets crystal palace at home, both are neighbors in the table and with a win could move a little further away from the relegation places

All hail and bow to the genius Moyes.  Cleverer than a fox this guy is.  Grin  Now please hold you mofos.  I need zhe points!

Bad beat on Liverpool yesterday.  I kinda thought of fading them buthad second thoughts after their CL win vs RBL.  One good thing about losing the league is Klopp could focus more on the CL.

Edit:  Well, not a good thing.  But there’s a silver lining.

I suppose the easiest route for us now is to go on and win it, then we ensure qualification for next season's UCL as a holder hahaha... it'll be the second time we do that.

I think LFC_Bitcoin said it right earlier on when he commented that we'll just have to hunker down and wait for our treatment room to start emptying. Once we get VVD and a couple more others back properly, we can start shrugging off this bad season of 18 different CB pairings (read that again!).

From multiple angles that doesn't look like an offside play, and VAR is really messing things up every now and then, the essence of the VAR to start with is to reduce the wrong calls, but we're gradually getting more non-justifiable wrong calls now than we get without the so called advance technology. but then Bamford has got to be the most unlucky striker in the EPL, he's got more of these wrong calls.


Well the thing is here is that it did look quite a bit offside from the in play angle, but on the replay it's so close I'm not even sure what is meant to be offside, so it's good that it was checked but at the same time if they don't have adequate angles how can they tell for sure? I wonder if we'll ever get cameras that run up and down the pitch with the action, but I'm sure there will still be issues with the linesman getting in the way or it not being able to keep up.

due to fulham's victory yesterday, i was able to get my only 1.5 points yesterday  Grin Tongue

Well I got zero points up until that game and luckily I got the correct score. A couple of upsets this round. Really didn't expect Liverpool to lose and I thought Spurs should be able to get a point from West Ham at least.

Draws are still freaking hard to predict for me. Southampton and Chelsea draw was predicted by only 4 people from the pool, congrats to them!
My feeling that Liverpool was not strong enough to win was right, but I did not expect it to lose like that to Everton either (congrats to 3 people who got this right).
But I got 3 points for Burnley vs West Brom, and this round has been very well for me so far, with 7.5 points along with webtricks and cryptofrka.

but what liverpool is doing at home at the moment is out of the question...
it's lfc's fourth defeat at anfield road in a row. the last time this happened was almost 100 years ago - in december 1923 and fc liverpool lost a merseyside derby at anfield road for the first time since september 27, 1999  Shocked Roll Eyes

Last season, we were creating new club records, this season, we're giving other clubs new records. Villa their biggest win over a top 4 club, Everton their first derby win in the new millennium, not to mention giving some managers maiden wins at Anfield. Sigh. The sight of Duncan Ferguson celebrating last night just totally wrecked my night:P

Wow so far 0 points.This is in the true meaning of the word the worst week so far for me.Burnley could not win, Chelsea could not win, Liverpool could not win, Fulham so far is not winning.These games were easy to predict but only on paper unfortunately.Let's see how it goes because tomorrow games are more difficult to predict.I am very sad to see Liverpool in this condition.I think they are totally focusing on the Champions league and this is what they should be doing because the Premier is game over for them.
0 points for me too. I already reached point when I don't even check my position on the table. I have impression that my performance is getting worse and worse every round. At least I haven't got wooden spoon yet Cheesy.
It's something understandable if Liverpool focus on Champions league now, title race is over for them. But if they will continue to perform like they're doing now, they are risking to end without spot in Champions league for next season.
Same 0 points for me as well. This covid season without supporters is really producing a lot of strange result. Kicking my ass but it is doing the same to most of you so I am still keeping my position in top 20. Not so good considering I was on the brink of breaking top ten couple of weeks ago.

No giving up, and I hope I will get at least a point from City win tonight which seems like something that should happen Smiley
