My point was I would support the boycott if wales did qualify even if it meant me missing my first World Cup. I just think it’s one of those situations where some things are more important than football. I don’t think wales will qualify, but Norway have a decent chance. To be honest I don’t think it’s abour qualifying as a team like Switzerland boycotting wouldn’t make a dent. It would need an England, France, Germany etc to make any impact. I think money talks and everyone will turn up, I would have great respect if a footballer like Rashford made an individual stand. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Italy and The Netherlands would be best placed as big nations who didn't qualify in 2018 so can't be charged with hypocrisy after happily sportswashing for Russia last time.

pink_triangle Posted March 27, 2021 Report Share Posted March 27, 2021 These champions league proposals are going to make the tournament worse and not better. Giving places based on the last few seasons is a complete joke. I just wish best buddies liverpool and man utd would join their other friends and form their own closed shop league. The constant threats every few years just drive reforms to make the competition worse. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

See Scotland. 1985 was the last time one of the “bitter rivals” Rangers or Celtic didn’t win the League ( Ferguson at Aberdeen). The voting structure means they control everything and we can’t make changes as Sky insist on 4 old firm league games. You can guess who banks the vast majority of the tv and prize money. Unlikely in my lifetime that one of those 2 clubs won’t win the league and Celtic recently won 4 trebles in a row 🤷♂️ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The international equivalent of a Pulis team. I know the squad isnt great, but it's good enough to beat luxembourg. Having seen them in the Euros and playing wales a million times, the style of football has been terrible. I think quite a bit below Pulis level.

I have no doubt he is an utter twat. I knew it when he played for us. I think there is definitely still a great player there in Coutinho, I think he would flourish again if he came back but realistically Barca would want a silly fee we simply won’t pay (and would be stupid to) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

vintagelaureate Posted March 29, 2021 Report Share Posted March 29, 2021 Liverpool reportedly on the verge of signing Konate from Leipzig, a great buy given the release clause but a poor injury record. I think this probably means we will look to ship out Matip, but if we were to take up the option to buy Kabak - which I can see us selling Phillips and Davies to cover - it gives us a strong pool of central defenders (especially considering their ages at the start of next season): Van Dijk (30), Gomez (24), Konate (21), Kabak (21).

Liverpool's front three obviously push defences back and stretch the game. I've thought for years (since Coutinho left) is that what they are missing is an attacking midfield to run into the hole created around the D and kick the ball really hard into the goal from distance (ie Coutinho). (Am prepared to concede Klopp may know more about tactics than me though.) Livepool's midfield does seem a bit pedestrian (if hard-working).

jyoung Posted March 29, 2021 Report Share Posted March 29, 2021 A Premier League legend and all time great goalscorer. I'm sure he's still got another few years in him, what do you think @eastynh?

Hugh Jass Posted March 29, 2021 Report Share Posted March 29, 2021 Despite being one of the greatest strikers to ever play in the PL it’s always felt like Aguero was a little underrated in some quarters of the media. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
