UEFA Champions League 2017/18

To suggest that Ronaldo is washed up is nonsense. 67 goals over the last 18 months (and a bit) - he is still the best goal scorer in the world.

No he is not. Kane Salah, etc are now better.

Ronaldo's shot conversion percentage is shockingly poor this year.

Call me crazy but maybe.. maybe.. your opinion is wrong, and our players aren't all terrible?

Maybe in 15/16 we underperformed, and in the last 2 seasons we've played to expectation?

It's pretty amusing to observe, though.

If you ask the majority of non-LFC fans on here, we have an ordinary manager, Firmino is just an all right sort of striker, our defence and keeper are s**t and our midfield is full of plodders.

And yet despite apparently having practically nothing but Salah going for us, we are third in the league, ahead of the all-conquering Tottenham and have one foot in the CL quarter-finals!

Imagine what we could do if we had a good manager and a good team!

The 2017 calendar year and the current European Golden Shoe standings say otherwise.

VVD looks such a bargain again today and SM you guys developed Robbo really well for us

Apparently we have an add-on clause of 20m if you guys win the CL so I'm counting the pennies already.

 

[typeclub]

Lol not many tags today whats happened.

You didn't come up against the Harry Kane teams that what happened

That is such an odd add on.
But he's been world class recently.

Personally still think juve and PSG will find a way to get through imo

I was kidding, our owner is a moron and we're probably only looking at 9m all up. 26m all up for him and Robertson is ******* ludicrous.

 

[RossFC]

I tagged you when you won your last league game so don't think we are here to rub losses in your face.

Yeah who would do such a thing?

 

[FAITH]

Speak for yourself lol

emery has a bit of the pellegrini's about him. overachieved with a lesser side (3 europa's with sevilla) but when he finally gets the chance at the club with higher expectations, he falls flat. shocked he even retained his job after losing the title to monaco.

 

[Art Vandelay_]

Firmino is just an all right sort of striker

That's true though isn't it?
The top echelon of strikers/ wide forwards are going at near a goal a game domestically and/or overall. Lewa, Auba, Aguero, Kane, Salah, Neymar, Suarez and Messi. You can't really say he's in that category.

 

[LFC2010]

Commenting on what happened? You were good, but Porto were very bad. VVD literally sliced it just before I mentioned it and it wasn't the first time he's done it in a LFC shirt. Sure he can play a ball and defend ok, but they are things that happen more than once and I felt like discussing it.

I also didn't feel like there was a need to praise LFC.. it wasn't a hard victory and it was pretty obvious that they were good. No point adding to the hyperbole.

Can't really blame anyone for making errors given the torrential rain during the match, and that includes the howler from the keeper for the 1st goal.

11 in 7 this campaign.

It's been said in Spain and France by a lot of people from players to pundits that tactically he's fantastic but lacks the man management side of things to be a great manager. I agree with you 100% regarding him still having a job after last years events.

 

[FAITH]

No one thinks Rinaldo is done, but is he top quality?
In my opinion no.
You could put hazard in place of Rinaldo at Real and he would score Twice as many goals as Rin.

 

[Thistle]

He scored a penalty and a flukey rebound. Not exactly scintallating.

 

[pantskyle]

I genuinely feel right now that the Ballon D'or could be won by Aguero, Salah or Kane at the moment.

KDB has had an outstanding season but I feel these awards tend to go to goal scorers more often than not

Agree, he'd also be in the mix but just outshined in some departments. I'd also have Jesse Lingard just above him.

 

[jod23]

we really missed Couti again hey jod23

Could use him against better sides. Time will tell. And we certainly do miss him.

 

[jod23]

Yeah nah. One comment about a foul in the build up for a goal and you lost your s**t.
Imo it was a foul but made little difference as there was a gulf in class between the two sides.

Were you even watching the game? It's absolutely nowhere near a foul. Hahah.

 

[jod23]

Ronaldo has totally gone as a footballer. Totally gone. 2 goals V Paris covers up a lot but apart from pennos and tap ins what does he now do? Nothing. He is a deeply ordinary player now.

He should never have won the Ballon D'Or last year over Messi. Was a joke.
