Liverpool in massive danger of shitting the bed this late season. Out of the FA Cup, on the verge of being bundled out of the ****ing Europa League by Atalanta, barring a miracle turnaround in the away leg. Probably lucky Arsenal surprisingly lost as well last night as they’d be over a game back in the Premier League race if they hadn’t. As such, they’re still in the race for the Prem, but Klopp’s farewell not going to plan and you can tell its affecting him when he talks to the press, the jolly loveable Jurgen facade is fast dropping and making way to the frustrated, grumpy sore when he loses Jurgen some of us always knew was there. Take a look at his interview after the FA Cup loss to Man United as exhibit A.
I know this is a bit rich coming from me considering the dogarse season Man United have, but after listening to a large part of the Liverpool fanbase turn their noses up at us and acting like their club can do no wrong and Jurgen is Jesus reincarnated (not talking about you Flanno, your alright), I feel I have the right to point out these issues like they always seem to point out the issues at my club. Fairs fair.
Sure injuries have played their part, but they don’t let United fans use our 60 odd injuries (not an exaggeration) this year as an excuse so why should they?
City have the lead and we all know how hard it is the run them down when they get ahead this late in a season, especially since it looks like they have the softest run home of the three contenders. Liverpool and Arsenal are still both well and truly in this up to their eyeballs, but they’re now relying on City to slip up, which is a lot to hope for.
