    I'd be surprised if they seriously compete - they looked like they were going to last year till about Easter, remember, before falling away.
    Let's see where we are around Christmas. But even if they do compete, that's still 3 clubs who you'd expect to be fairly well above "the rest". It shouldn't be like that year on year.

    I’m thinking you don’t start a player you intend to sell, so this Trossard story is bollocks imo.

    Maybe they enquired about his availability after the Villa game but got no further than he’s not for sale

    Well, we would be totally fucked if we do accept.

    They submitted the bid today.

    We have rejected it though.

    They may have submitted the bid today, but I imagine they probably were in contact before that

    I think Klopp's 'heavy metal football' tired them out, by all accounts Slot is someone who will manage games better and preserve their energy.

    I see real light in their players' eyes again

    Loads of the players who were part of that 2019/2020 title winning side aren’t even there. Alisson nor Van Dijk are the players they were. They over rely on Salah and in all three games this season they have looked vulnerable from set pieces and lucky that their opponents were wasteful.

    Jota gets injured as often as Jesus does, despite his Euro showing Gakpo is average. So is Hungarian Copy and Paste and Argentinian Aaron Ramsey. We will see where Liverpool are come two months down the line.

    I know doom mongering is your new thing, but I can see the light in their eyes again is feeble even for you

    Allison's been excellent so far and Van Dyke is still one of the best CBs in the country

    try actually watching them play - I watched them against Moan Ure yesterday - you can say all you like about Casemiro, it still took a ruthless and on form team to exploit his cock-ups so well

    It looks to me like they're glad to see the back of Klopp, they all look fresh and up for it

    Who has Van Dyke played so far to test that, he got absolutely taken apart when they last came to the Emirates because he gets turned easily. Allison is not the player he was and still looks uncertain as does that entire defence from set pieces

    It looks to me that you’re full of shit, Klopp was in my view the best coach in the premier league by some distance. And this was especially evident that he took this team with a few still decent players in it and a whole lot of average and they were in the title race till April.

    I saw the game yesterday, I’ve also seen both Brighton and Bournemouth take apart United at home. Like I say if they are still showing this kind of form in November, I might concede that this bald Dutchman might have something about him. But so far he’s just inherited a strong team, and like David Moyes when he went to United looks to be waiting for a decent team to put them back in their place.

    i'll ignore the common abuse and remind myself to look at onilne Arsenal

    as for Klopp i said nothing to imply that he wasn't a good manager, I'm not the only one saying a shift to a more measured approach rather than his full-on style might well suit the squad at this time

    Meanwhile your claims about players such as Gakpo are completely baseless, that squad's a lot stronger than people seem to think
