The on topic thread

We don't rely on Costa. If you'd said that about Fabregas or Matic you might have been closer.

I dont think he watches us much.

 

[Zidane98]

Sorry but that's just crap. They've stepped up and generally scored everytime they've had to lead our line.

That's because they've played occasionally and against weaker opposition. Different story if they were playing week in and week out.

 

[Bojan KantKick]

Pretty sure chelsea would play shurrle up front or buy another striker if costa was out for 6 months. Remy seems severely underrated on here.

 

[chef]

To be fair, that's in one off games. I'm not sure they'd be able to be as efficient over 6 months.

How can anybody say definitely.

Drogba and Remy aren't spuds and we don't really on our CFs(like a certain other team) to win us games, we would still be there abouts if Costa missed a large chunk of games.

 

[Loonerty]

This is beyond the entire argument however as now WC is suggesting that Sturridge is literally the only reason Liverpool aren't doing better.

How would anyone know.

We have plenty of decent depth and unlike your team we dont rely solely on our CFs.

You can't say definitively. That's why i said 'I'm not sure'.

Drogba is done. He's not leading your line on a consistent basis. Remy is better but I'm still not sure he'd win you the title.

You may not but Costa won you his fair chunk of points at the beginning of the season.

 

[Thistle]

I would still be confident with Remy leading the line.

Nope, not doing that at all.

You are suggesting that selling Suarez & having Sturridge out for the first half of the reason has absolutely no effect on league table position.
In reality that's a huge factor but not the only one. Lallana & Markovic, two new signings, missed pre season with injury. Markovic is just starting to come good now. Lovren was a poor signing which has been compounded by having to defend under pressure thanks to a lack of goals. Flanagan & Sakho, two of our best back 4 missed large amounts of the season injured. And it has taken quite some time for our new signings to gel with many being inexperienced and young.



And apparently in the world of Chelsea fans Diego Costa has made not one single iota of difference to the league table with Schurrle, Drogba, & Remy easily able to do the job that he does.

Makes you wonder why Mourinho even bothered to splash out all those wages 30m+ transfer fees on a footballer that's supposedly making no difference to the team at all. He must be a moron.

He seems to have quite the obsession and loves an exaggeration.

Here I was thinking we were saying that if we needed to rely on Remy and Drogba that they could still do a job and we'd still be there abouts.

Which really isn't that hard to understand.

Interesting to see that you aren't rebuffing Jatz who has said the same thing re: Costa.

It's all about the way you voice an opinion.

I think me and Jatz have made our POV's clear to each other. I don't need to keep banging on about it do I?

Sterling & Coutinho are nearly as important to us.

You have us covered for depth. We can only dream of a squad the size of yours.

It is. We don't all have to agree.

Nope. I think I've made mine pretty clear to you also.

 

[Zidane98]

Can we agree to disagree then

 

[Zidane98]

Just on Rodgers his teams always do better second half of the season generally. With a fit & firing Studge I think we'll end up on 65-70 points , will be touch and go if that gets us 4th.

Hopefully made irrelevant by winning the Europa league.

 

[chef]

Nope. I think I've made mine pretty clear to you also.

You have. I actually enjoy arguing with you for some reason

 

[Zidane98]

Must be because I'm a LFC supporter


Keep bringing on the discussions though, your football knowledge is impressive and you argue your point very effectively

 

[Zidane98]

On Costa Rodgers was derided by some LFC supporters for trying to sign him last year (not necessarily ones on here).

How wrong they were. He's pretty much a Suarez clone with not quite the same skill level. His work rate turns him from a good to a great player.

 

[Cruyff14]

I don't need you trying to insinuate things on my behalf thanks very much.

Then what is it you're saying?

 

[SM]

So... Torres.

 

[Jatz]

So... Torres.

Love it!
