Match Day Liverpool v West Ham, Saturday 24th February 15:00

It all just depends if the other lads can lay on a million chances for him to put one or two away but luckily they did that for him today and seem to most games.

He is a 1FF sure bet and you can take that to the bank.

 

[Pagnell]

His chances to goal ratio isn't that bad. And he creates a fair few himself, it's not as if he's impotent without being supplied.

I'm not sure where the idea came from that he is doesn't cut the mustard short of a hundred chances per game.

After a cursory glance at reddit the main talking points of this game are the "lying bastard" chants aimed at Evra and Arnautovic's great effort that hit the bar.

Bit of a banter, although in a poor taste. While it was a great effort by Arnautovic, it was a a great save by Karius that stopped it from going in. Reckon if it was De Gea, it would be talked about in a different way.

I suggest you stick to posting about shit transfer rumours and looking up Liverpool on Google Maps.

Ah Mr. Deluded. Do you think Liverpool "legend" Salah looked up Liverpool on Google Maps? Imagine watching footy for 40 years and still coming out with embarrassing comments like this...could never be me.

 

[SALTIRE]

A new low from Pagnell there, tut tut.

 

[Pagnell]

Some tosser defends the booing and namecalling of Evra as "banter" and suddenly the Karius fanclub are in full swing. And Saltire seriously calls it a new low from me. Hmmmm....interesting.

 

[SALTIRE]

So its nothing to do with Evra being a Man Utd stalwart for years then?

 

[Pagnell]

Yeah, I'm sure the chant calling him a lying bastard was all about that.

 

[SALTIRE]

Ha did they, haven't seen the game yet. Fair enough, that was a bit naughty.

You seem to almost believe that if we just put an even better finisher in Salah's position, he'd get even more goals. What you're missing, and what would work as well anywhere as it does for us, is that Salah's off the ball movement is the best in the world. He gets so many chances mostly because he's always, in every attack, in a good position to receive the ball. It doesn't matter if it's Roma, Liverpool or United, that movement will keep getting goals for as long as he's physically fit. You're making it out as if we've got a bunch of really creative players (we don't, in fact, it's our biggest weakness) setting up sitters that he regularly misses. It's rather the opposite, he moves into positions where our not-very-creative players can play a simple pass and it's a clear cut chance.

Good result, as said the forward line being on song will result in a comfortable win regardless of the back. And the +3 goal gain means we stay above United in 2nd with any result bar a win for them tomorrow.

You were just waiting for an excuse to post that tbf, even you know he wasn’t being serious

It's off the back that he'd rather have Mané at United than Salah, so I suspect he's perfectly serious.

 

[Stevencc]

"A million chances".

"A million chances".

Hyperboling your own standpoint doesn’t make the original standpoint any less serious, though. Unless you’ve backed off your very odd assertion that Mané would be better for United than Salah?

If I had to choose two Liverpool players to step into the current United side, I would choose Keita and Mane - that's right.

So now that we’ve settled this you can address the post of mine that you ignored because it’s so well written and thoroughly unarguable.

In that case I don't see why I should bother.
