EPL Matchday 38

[Zidane98]

There are three certainties in life; death, taxes and spurs finishing above Liverpool

Four certanties. You forgot to add Spurs dodging trophies.

Thanks for that captain obvious. Can add you to that if we want. And it’s hard to win s**t when other clubs are spending over £300m every window

 

[Jatz]

Perhaps suggests FT's point is valid that constantly chopping and changing is how you end up with a Frankenstein squad that is made up of an amalgamation of various manager's inputs, without giving those managers time to bed their signings?

Oh it certainly does. I don't mind the idea of longevity, I just don't believe this manager is the one for it.

And when the next one does well for 5 months and then loses the players you'll think the same of him, and then the next, and then the next...

I probably will. But you know what, it's not doing so badly for us. We're still finishing in the top half of the league, despite the relegation form that Puel had us in.

If we sack managers every 5 months, knowing it'll keep us going in the PL, I'll take that deal.

Didn't you complain a few months ago that being midtable mediocrity was always something you dreaded?

Yes. It's my biggest bugbear of this code. Still beats being relegated though. I wish we'd push on towards Europe but that's certainly not going to happen with Puel at the helm.

I'm so confident on that, I'll make you a deal. If we get to Europe under Puel, I'll give myself a Hull avatar for the entirety of the following season.

You're not going to push for Europe rotating managers every six months either.

8 out of the last 10 seasons

Only because of CL

 

[Stopher]

When you've actually managed to win fewer trophies than even Liverpool in the last barren decade, hollow bragging rights are all you've got I suppose...

 

[WealstoneRaider]

Only because of CL

Table doesn’t lie - that’s what we are always told.

Liverpool have closed the gap on us so that is to be applauded, but it still remains Spurs >>> Liverpool

Enjoy your win

 

[Art Vandelay_]

The mind boggles...

Limp to 4th after Chelsea * up v Huddersfield and boast.
Limp ahead of Liverpool in a European cup final and boast.

Why?

I’m content with CL football in our shiny new stadium but maybe we wind our necks in a touch. When we stop operating like a small club that’s content with selling fits best players and start acting like a big club that keeps its best players and makes finals then let’s boast.

Why so serious all the time?

Chillax a bit

Calm bro.
Just not sure the benefits of taking the piss out of a side in a European Cup final. We’d both swap 3rd for 4th and a CL final in a heartbeat.

The last few months have opened the eyes a little bit. We’ve gotten way ahead of ourselves.

 

[Pessimistic]

Didn't you spend upwards of 50m upon promotion?

They really needed to, and are still well behind even next years promoted teams

 

[Cruyff14]

Nuts. They broke 11 records this season.

 

[chef]

Amazing season from them.

 

[WealstoneRaider]

Nuts. They broke 11 records this season.

Easy when you have unlimited cash available to be honest

 

[chef]

Have United spent the same lately?

Any of you seen Harry Kane's twitter account? You see the replies?

and people wonder where Liverpool fans get their reputation. Has there ever been a more bitter, obsessive supporter base?

Fantastic table for some perspective. Great effort by the top 8. Embarrassing for stoke and west ham and Brom

Just went and read some of those comments. Dreadful form by the scousers. They are obsessed with Kane. Absolute imbeciles
