Extremely unlucky not to win that. Some of the finishing was straight wank from the front four. Dont wanna finish second in a group this easy though.

Doubt many clubs are arsed if they finish first or second mate save for getting the home leg second. That's what the bollocks groups have done to the competition. It's just about qualifying. But then given the complete domination the first two, there's every reason to think winning Sevilla is more than attainable.

The only frustrating thing is the future coefficient. Wins and goals would boost that massively the system UEFA uses.

Not seen one Utd fan anywhere which is mad. You'd think we'd of at least run into some early arrivals yesterday avvi but nottin'. Shrugs. No hassle from Spartak (even last night as we made probably a silly decision all things considered to bunk out early FT issuing the pretence of being L'pool officials and walked back the Metro in amongst them all), dead hot weather Monday, so all in all probably the best trip we've ever had Moscow.
 
Clubs care because of who else finishes first. And domination means nothing if you don't finish chances
 
Thank you for the concern.

Personally more than satisfied with the group situation but yer know.
 
Cant see how anyone would be satisfied with 2 from 6, but each to their own
 
It's a group. Over 6 games. Back-to-back's with Maribor to come next with Moscow done. Utterly dominated the top 2 teams the group. Scoring will come so no concerns there. Our bad month, that we have every season, now out the way with everyone back and getting more into it by the game bar Lallana.

Europe, and the league for that matter, is sound.

I think Klopp would be more alarmed if we weren't creating chances. Nothing that serious to be worried about, unlike stopping the individual errors leading to goals.
 
Probably working?

Dunno mate considering Manchester has a bigger unemployment figures than L'pool. :P

Just mad how we're now the airport waiting for a 10 past 3 flight in 50 mins or so and I've not seen one Utd fan all trip. Yer doing 3 days Moscow the main being a long haul. I mean some will be arriving today but there'd of still been your regular travelling lads doing Tue- Thu.

Eh?? All the statistics say otherwise.

Liverpool was ranked as the number one county with the most unemployed households yet again, after also being top between 2006 and 2010.
Middlesborough came in second with Glasgow in third, closely followed by Hartlepool, Blaenau Gwent and Wolverhampton.


Also included in the top ten was North Ayrshire, West Dunbartonshire, Manchester and Nottingham.
In 2015, Liverpool and Hartlepool were the only areas with the fewest working households and highest numbers of unemployed homes.

Not that it's important though.
I was only suggesting it's a midweek game, so most people can't get time off to travel for a few days.
 
Try looking at the latest figures. Not a few years old ones.

*Helpfull me.

That one is from October 2016 and I also have similar from 2017.
Liverpool has a higher percentage of unemployed households when compared to Manchester.

Who cares though? Not me.
I don't even live in the UK XD

Was just engaging in the conversation and correcting your mistake.

For clarity:
2017 data.

Liverpool: Percentage Of Households That Are Workless 21.7%
Manchester: Percentage Of Households That Are Workless 18.5%

Interesting. You're challenging last months Granada report.

I shall look when I'm fully home. For clarity and everything. I don't post flippantly without being sure what I'm posting on mate. You should know that.

But just for clarity and all, I'll look later and get back to you.
 
I just googled and got the stats from Nomis, the official labour market statistics. It's not that important and will only go off topic and bore everybody else.
If Nomis are wrong, that's cool?

How was the trip? Any gobshites starting trouble?
 
Yes please keep it on football. It's what the thread is about. If you want to debate labor market statistics can simply open a thread in general discussion. These subjects always derail a thread because of some mouthy noob, or someone flaming etc etc. You get the gist.

Many thanks :)

Well **** José lad.

Now you're an 'honorary' member the SOS, you're supposed to talk positively about L'pool. Not randomly bring us up to nark yet again when you've not been playing against LFC.

You've not quite got this have yer?
 
Talking of bellends and fixtures, Sky can go do one with this Arsenal game.

Way to totally bollocks up Chrimbo.
 
For a narky arl ******, this is a wonderful, emotive piece of writing from Nevin that's brought a tear to my eye and put a big *** smile on my face in equal measure:

https://www.theanfieldwrap.com/2017...-did-so-much-more-than-make-the-people-happy/

I was a toddler that glorious Cup final against the Geordies and then his subsequent, jaw-dropping resignation the summer after. So I sadly never got to experience the one thing I'd give a heck of a lot to of experienced if I could. A game stood the Kop with that man in charge. Often conducting crowd and players alike. Like some crazy mad German fella' of today, he just got us and the City in every way and connected seamlessly like very few outsiders ever have to this unique place they come to call home.

Me Ma has never been that into footie. She's originally from Bradford. Married me Dad and became an 'adopted Scouser.' Got a passing love for the Reds from him. But I'll never forget her letting me jib off school, Friday, October 2, 1981, (some dates never leave you) and going with a few other women, who also wasn't that into footie, on the bus to stand down the road the church West Derby, in the pouring rain, to pay our respects. Which said it all about the effect the fella' had on most everyone, Red or Blue, in this great City. And for the record, EVERY football league club was represented. Such was the man's legacy to the sport.

Everything we are. Everything we've achieved and everything we have yet to experience. We all it most all to him.

Beautiful writing Mike lad.
 
Caring footballer story shocker!

Without wishing to sound like a social commentator, and I hate promoting anything in the Nationalistic, xenophobic, bigoted, hate-filled agenda bile that is the Daily Third Reich; but a great choice of paper to run this to hit home to their average readership, a sizeable portion of working-class Britains, and raise awareness and understanding of foodbanks/ food poverty and the reasons behind their need for many low-income, hard-working Britains that is a continued blight to the Country's detriment in 2017.

***** not being at the game. More so when it's Newcastle- L'pool. Probably the most entertaining contest in PL history with a myriad of pure footballing, all-out attacking classics. And then there's the Rafa factor. Always one of the best aways of any season Newcastle. One you defo want to do a weekend.

Danny Sturridge must be salivating at the supply line he's got there.

Realy looking forward to this. Someone's due an absolute walloping off these Reds who've completely dominated most every game they've played this year save for Watford and City. (Which they were when it was 11 against 11.). The goals were flying in pre-City. We know the struggles converting post that game. But Septembers done. New month. Let's take it out on the Geordies and give a side the licking our play this year has more than deserved. Score early and undo Rafa's defensive game-plan.

Fancy L'pool 3 or 4 this avvi.

Up the Headed Back the Top 4 Reds!
