Most forums have a large contingency of deluded bellends who think like tomkins does & spend hours locked in a virtuous circle jerk with like minded souls convincing each other that everything is brilliant & rolling out masses off carefully selected statistics to try to prove their ascertains right.

We scare them off with our blunt realism, obv.

This place is no different to the purists from other sites. See the threads about wini and where any dissenting voices to his talents were being dismissed as 'people who dont understand football'.

Reddits Liverpool forum... Fuck me...

Ah, I'm not sure that's quite fair. Dissenting voices are allowed, and ultra-positive (or negative) bellendery is quickly called out.

And often the debate is measured. I know we lock threads around these parts, but there's a super debate you can search for "The Wijnaldum Conundrum" which was posted just over a year ago, and many of the concerns about him are eloquently aired and discussed.

And the "Invisible Man" nickname has its first appearance.

And yeah, while there are a few "he's great/ Newcastle fans know fuck all/ blah blah" there are more than enough dissenting voices.

Do you mean we're all grumpy bastards?

Yep.

If this site was being mooted as a product, everyone would tell us immediately that it's not worth it cos the market we're aiming at is TINY.

Fans who support the club but aren't 'superfans' & don't have the time or energy to spend hours debating shit, that want casual debate, but not overly serious debate, & don't tolerate fools gladly. Must have a healthy dose of scepticism, be able to take being randomly insulted as a matter of course without being offended, & have a slightly dark sense of humour.

We'll never have tonnes of posters, & that's ok with me.

I think we can debate shit, some of our lot are fucking exceptional at it.

Rurik is a site treasure.
 
I think Solanke deserves a run in the team (as opposed to one game evey now and again) and for the next few games I would select..........................

.........Salah................Firmino...............Coutinho
................................Solanke

If klopp wanted to go a bit crazy he could even drop Coutinho into a deeper role and go........................

..............Henderson..........Coutinho..............Can...................
Salah.......................Ox-Chamberlain.................Firmino
......................................Solanke...................................


The second option would need a back 3 right?
 
I'm surprised so many people have decided he's a write off already? He's had one absolute mare of a game. Otherwise, he hasn't really had a run in this team yet.

I don't want him to be shit just to prove me right. But I honestly believe he is absolute gash. No footballing brain, no skill, bang average running machine.

That was my belief of Salah. A one trick pony, but it's a very good trick.

In fact, if I look skill for skill, AOC has more natural ability than Salah in my opinion. It's just that Salah is quicker and actually knows what's good at (i.e. penetrating runs; so he sticks to that).

AOC doesn't seem to have a clue at what his thing is. He's trying to be everything and is producing nothing. And that's where Klopp needs to educate him. Otherwise he will be as shite as a lot of people seem to think. I just think that even brainless footballers can be incredibly effective when they know what they are good at. But I guess that's part of having a footballing brain (imagine if Xavi thought he was a winger and how shite a career he would have had there).

Good points. I guess it's all about opinions. I was delighted to get Salah as I've really rated him since I saw him play for Basel. And I remain convinced of OC's shitness. But then I've been spectacularly wrong before. So fingers crossed.
