Curtis Jones is fast becoming one of my fav players. Excellent tech and very good at progressing the ball but he also works so ******* hard for the team and doesn't shirk his responsibilities. Baffles me he gets tirade online when he is one of our own and doesn't look out of place at a top 3 side.
 
Today's admin-

Title Countdown:
13 wins down/ 17 to go.
45 points down/ 50 to go.

Current unbeaten PL run-
P 2 W 1 D 1 F 5 A 2 CS: 2

Tell us again we aren't in a two-horse title fight!

So, for the past 72 hours or so since Thursday's game, we've had many in the media and across SM, spouting the absolute reactionary garbage of-

Liverpool can't break down low-block teams - HELLO!

Robbo can't cross a ball like Tsimikas and should be out of the side - Oxo-Chambo would like a word.

Taki is done and should never play again!- Just HOW superb a cameo was that from the birthday boy? Superb pressing, creation, and another goal to boot. Adding to his best goalscoring season since his transfer into English football.

Oxo-Chambo is done - Hopefully, the ankle sprain isn't bad as he continued adding today, to what has been a quietly impressive season from him.

Our academy is as bad as our transfers- Tell that to Trent, Curtis, who were both superb, particularly Curtis, and Kaide. Along with Neco, Quive and young Tyler being on yet another PL bench.

SEE! We told you L'pool couldn't score without Mo and Sadio and would be F when they went to the AFCON - Yeah, that one lasted all of the first league game they missed.

Conclusion- MANY should think more and post less if all they want to do is be reactionary in the moment.

Really good, comfortable, dominant display today against a hard team to play against who sat in deeper than they normally do. Special shout out to Bobby who I thought was superb and the MOTM along with Fabulous. The more he's playing again, the more he's getting back into the groove with his game. A constant menace all day for Brentford. And getting Kade 10 mins for his PL debut was another super bonus too. Along with a 2nd successive CS for a defence that apparently is weak.

11 behind City, with a game in hand and the Ethiad to come in a few months. 51 points still on the board. I LIKE them apples!

One game, one win at a time.

Tell us again we aren't in a two-horse title fight!

Up the quadruple chasing Reds!

I remember us being linked with Bowen last summer and it was laughed at. I guess our scouts know a player when they see one. Obviously not worth the price Westham would ask for now but he has stepped up his output this season and I can see why he was a profile wanted by Klopp. My fantasy signing would be Raphina but he plays on the right same as Salah...
 

As much as I don't agree with it in the current climate, I'm loving how well our players are doing the AFCON.

Sadio and Naby Lad through to the last 16. Hopefully, Mo can join them tonight. I sincerely hope all 3 get to the semis at least. And then two of them can battle it out for their Continents biggest prize.

Superb to see them all playing to such a high level too the groups. Particularly Keïta who is just continuing the top form/ health he was showing this year before Pogba's naughty assault put him out until Christmas. The man-of-the-match all three games and super goal above is just a continuation of that.
 

This has proper saddened me this morning.

Great, great man and a ridiculously loyal club servant who was as instrumental off the pitch in our return to dominance as Shanks, Bob, Kenny and their charges were on it. And probably the last club official in the hierarchy who genuinely loved us and stood up for fan issues. The club stopped really caring about the fans for me when PBR hung it up.

I was fortunate to have met him a few times. Most notably in the saddest of occasions in the aftermath of Hillsborough when, after going down to the ground he'd opened up as a shrine, my dad had broken down outside the arl main stand and he very kindly offered us in for a sit-down and a brew for as long as we needed. (Shout out to Peter Beardsley's wife Sandra in particular who sat with us and couldn't have been more compassionate. As all the player's wives were. Above and beyond. Never forget that.).

An absolute gentleman and an absolute Liverpudlian legend.

Not bad for a staunch Crewe Alexandra supporter. *Smiles.

God rest mate. Say hi to Bob, Bill, Joe, Reuben and co. And thank you, sincerely, for being the top man you were.

We owe you more than words can express. YNWA.
