Klopp was still at Liverpool in 22/23 & 23/24 when he let Arteta Arsenal who had the youngest squad in PL be City closest challengers.
Arteta took 8/12 pts in PL v Liverpool over the 2 seasons.
Klopp bottled title 23/24 in his final season & has never beat Pep in a title race.

Acting like they were some super entertaining team lmfao. 8 goals in 9 games.
You played a back 5 with 2 DM’s and subbed on a CB for a FWD on the 80th min every single game.

Acting like Arsenal are running out Drogba, Lampard, Duff, and Robben 😂 I need you guys to start respecting our earlier teams immediately

The truth, whether people want to accept it or not, is that the scrutiny for this sort of behaviour at Arsenal, Liverpool or United, for example, would be very intense. Arteta steps out one toe out of his technical area and certain outlets get days’ worth of content out of it and it becomes an enormous and permanent talking point in a way this just won’t be.

Palmer’s career is genuinely funny. A 24-year-old “top player” who doesn’t play in Europe, has zero memorable moments in European competitions, doesn’t play for his national team, has won zero major club trophies since becoming a first-team player, and has zero goal contributions against big clubs.
Just a couple of penalties against relegation-threatened teams, and that’s all. The emptiest career ever for a supposed top player.

Declan Rice continuing to make a mockery of Graeme Souness’ woeful analysis of his game on a weekly basis.
Superb goal against Bayern, now leading the way for Premier League assists this season.
Just a monstrous player all over the pitch. The complete midfielder.

Declan Rice has more assists than any other Premier League player this season (5). 🪄

Cherish every moment you watch Declan Rice in an #Arsenal shirt. Warriors like this come along once in every other generation, and today he came to Anfield with one intention, and one intention only. 14 years of waiting; this is what a true £100m midfielder looks like. Masterclass.

Cannot wait for Fabian Hürzeler’s TalkSport appearance to discuss beating Man City.

Guarantee we’re gonna see this same situation within the next month and the offender won’t get sent off. Let me see how people justify it then
Regulation & Discipline update on @Arsenal:

ALT An independent Regulatory Commission has dismissed claims of both wrongful dismissal and excessive punishment for Max Dowman. The Arsenal player was sent off during their EFL Cup game against Fleetwood Town on Tuesday 27 October and will be suspended for three matches. The Regulatory Commission’s written reasons for its decisions will be published in due course.

The day I stopped taking awards seriously. It's nothing but politics.
With respect to my colleagues in the football writing industry, I am stunned that Bruno Fernandes has been named FWA Footballer of the Year instead of Declan Rice. Rice has literally won more matches this season (35) than Fernandes has even played (34).

Bruno getting POTY over Rice last season was a joke, and we’re now seeing Bruno totally fall apart as a player 2 months into a season with European football. There’s levels. That award was a travesty.
