This is the first time I've actually watched Liverpool this season. They're very, very impressive. So fast in turning defence into attack.

The Batman Posted December 1, 2021 Share Posted December 1, 2021 3 hours ago, ExiledAjax said: Saying he expects Newcastle to spend "£200 - £300m in January" and then survive is stupid in any accent. They can spend that amount, the tight approach under Ashley means they are way off breaking P&S rules. But I'd argue they could sign 4 or 5 players of top quality...and it won't get them safe. They basically need an absolute minimum of 30 more points. That gets them to 37, and an outside chance of survival. Ideally they need to hit 40, so need 33 more. They've got 24 games to do that. So they need to go from 0.5ppg to nearly 1.5 ppg, and they need to do that overnight. Their xG is appalling, and last night they were hopeless. Furthermore, by the end of January they will have played another 9 matches including against Man City, Liverpool, plus so-called "6 pointers" against Burnley, Watford and Leeds. After those 9 games they would have only 15 remaining remaining games. So realistically unless they get 15+ points from the 9 games between now and the end of January, they could be looking at needing nearly 2 ppg to stay safe. 2 ppg is top 4 form. It's not happening. I don't care if they sign Salah, Kante, Lukaku, Donnarumma and van Dijk in January. They're relegated. They're going down. And I cannot wait. Full of their own self righteousness. Their last 5 games are 2 teams who will be battling relegation with them, 2 teams going for the title, and arsenal who will more than likely be challenging for the 4th CL spot. They'll be lucky to get 2 points out of an available 15. And they won't be safe before those fixtures come around. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Batman Posted December 2, 2021 Share Posted December 2, 2021 The ref had to award a goal. Hopefully this will make players think again when they feign injury and roll around like they've been shot every time the wind changes direction. Get this culture out of football ASAP. Also Simon Thomas was speaking pre game about ramsdale's keeper stats and said he was second only to Mendy. Unfortunately for him, he said Benjamin Mendy and not Edouard Mendy. About time Benjamin Mendy got a mention in the sporting media. They try and ignore it but they won't be able to do it much longer. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Definitely on de Gea as far as I’m concerned. The reason we don’t see goals like that is because the keeper will get up and defend his goal until the ball is cleared and then go down if he feels it necessary. Rolling round with his back to play. I realise Fred went down his Achilles and it would’ve been painful, but come on. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
