Why won't Liverpool be unbeaten when they play bunch of farmers every weekend. We can see how poor they are against teams from other leagues.

Chelsea, Spurs and Manchester City qualified for the round of 16, they must be a lot of farmers in the UCL...

raumdeuter:
Liverpool had their highest points ever last season. Man utd had their highest points in 5 yrs 2 seasons ago

But right now after 26 games
City 51points
Chelsea 41 points
Spurs 40 points
Man Utd 38points
Arsenal 34points

Last year after 26 games
City 65points (-14 from last year)
Chelsea 50points (-9)
Spurs 60(-20)
Man utd 51points (-13 from last year)
Arsenal 50 (-16 from last year)

Read the above stats and ask again if this is not a weak season from other contenders for the league

Compared it with their best seasons individually...Manchester United, Spurs, Arsenal and Chelsea...Don't try to play a fast one.

Elampiro, Simeone set up to limit the attacking influence of Robertson and Arnold and the resultant effect was fewer chances created.

Mane, Firmino and Salah played up front...

Godx:
You didn't answer my question. All the other top teams in England this season has been piss poor.

When last have they been great?

biomustry:
Let's not forget about the Premier league officiating Let's not forget about the Premier league officiating na

Lol you guys didn't watch the game with your binoculars on or it is because Liverpool lost that we're not hearing of any controversies?

raumdeuter:
But na for Europe dem no fit go unbeaten

Abi why are they not losing in the league but unbeaten in Europe

Answer same for every other top team...

Godx:
Are city, Chelsea,Spurs, United and arsenal not shit this season?

The Manchester United, Arsenal and Chelsea that was feared, are they the same as the one you saw in the past 2 seasons? Yes or no?

raumdeuter:
Actually all the teams that should rival Liverpool are experiencing one of their worst seasons in recent times. Look at their current point haul and compare it to their form in recent seasons you knew in recent time

We can as well say Pep had it easy in the past 2 seasons because Manchester United, Arsenal and Chelsea wasn't at the peak of their powers. What's an excuse for you should also suffice as an excuse for me...

raumdeuter:
If they had lost 5 games in the league would it stop them from winning the league or topping the table? yet they are unbeaten

Did Losing 4 games last season stop City from winning the league? You dont need to go unbeaten to win the league but if you see mumu opponents why not

As A40 asked of you, show us any team that has gone unbeaten in a season across all competition or cut Liverpool some slack.

raumdeuter:
Watch how Patrick will read the bold and still tell you that you are celebrating immaturely and that you meant that Atletico will win

Your attempt to rubbish the EPL is DOA...

Liverpool are just doing excellently doesn't mean City, Chelsea, Spurs and the likes are shit. If they were garbage, they'd never have made it to the round of 16...Simple logic na it dey hard a whole you.

raumdeuter:
Was it part of their goals to lose to Napoli and Atletico while winning 25 out of 26?

Did losing to Napoli stop them from qualifying? If no, then give it a rest. Different competitions, different approach...

raumdeuter:
Liverpool could have lost 6 games and still be topping the league. but they are not because no team can match them

But in EUrope teams are matching them

You're not making any sense right now, your argument will make sense if Liverpool are eliminated...Their goal in the group stage was to qualify for the round of 16 and they achieved it. Now, their goal is to progress to the quarters and they stand a good chance after the first leg so what exactly is your point?

In Euros, Portugal didn't win a game until the semi-finals but who cares, they won it and that's all that matters.

raumdeuter:
EPL is not the only league where 4 teams made it out of the groups.

The EPL is garbage because all the teams are bowing down to Liverpool while in Europe teams that are even struggling like Napoli Atletico are standing up to them

Really? It's now down to league position? When Chelsea won the UCL over Bayern, what position on the log did they finish that season? Did it mean Bayern was useless at that point?

Melvyn11:
If that's what you understand from my post then so be it.

You asserted that Liverpool don't have a Ronaldo and only a team with Ronaldo has managed to stop them thus if they avoid a Ronaldo led team, they'd win it.

I advise you wait until the 2nd leg is payed before celebrating, we have seen this tape one too many times...Ask Barcelona fans.

raumdeuter:
My point is EPL this season is weak, the team that is steamrolling you all is chopping it in Europe. Even if na one game no team in the league can win after 26

When Madrid lost 1 vs 3 to Juventus only to qualify at the end, was it in anyway significant or did it mean they were useless?

The point is simple, in a league game, you play for points, in a knockout competition you play to qualify...

If Liverpool wins the return leg at Anfield, will all you're saying now make any sense to you?

Melvyn11:
They lost to Ronaldo. The only constant with Atletico losing a knockout tie under Simeon in the champions league is to a Ronaldo team. Ronaldo doesn't play for Liverpool last time I checked.

So, by your assertion, Atletico would've won and will win the UCL if Juventus get eliminated?

raumdeuter:
If the EPL is not garbage, How come a team that has won 25 out of 26 in EPL has only won 4 out of 7 in the CL

Is the UCL garbage? If not, how come all the teams from a garbage league made it to the knockout rounds?

FirstbornWds:
And the almighty raining kings of EPL played the seventh-ranked team in La Liga without registering a shot on target.

Where's that bum-thinking Obainojazz abi na obinuju way sabi rant about the complexity of premier league defenders?

If the Liverpool team I saw today is the same one dominating the EPL with over 22 points, I can only but say EPL IS A GLORIFIED FARMER'S LEAGUE.

Like... Not even one shot on goal? Absolutely ridiculous.

Isn't it too early to troll? I assume you're a Barca fan and you know first hand that a game at Anfield is a different proposition entirely...3 weeks isn't far off, be patient.

If the EPL is garbage and the UCL is the standard, how come all the teams in the garbage league made it to the round of 16...Spurs,Chelsea and Manchester City are in the UCL round of 16 just like Spain has Madrid, Atletico, Barca and Valencia but no, the EPL is garbage whilst La Liga is the best...Some jokes write themselves.

Melvyn11:
This is the worst atletico in recent years yet Liverpool had 0 shots on target. I need to remind you that giving a 1 goal lead to Atleti is one of the worst things you can do in a game of football, cause you might as well pack up and go home. The only chance Liverpool got is if they sign Ronaldo before the 2nd leg. Not that I am ruling them out but I have confidence in Atletico qualifying.

Didn't Atletico lose a 2 goal lead against Juventus just last season?

See analogy, today the premier league is rubbish because Liverpool are doing well yet the same folks argued on here sometime back that Manchster City were the best team for winning the league with 100 pts competing against 2 UCL finalist. Today, that same league that still has their darling Pep and City as well as last season UCL finalist as well as Europa league finalist is garbage all in a bid to discredit Liverpool and Klopp...The joke is on you guys.

raumdeuter:
You still dont understand do you?

Liverpool could as well have lost 6 games in the league and still win but they are not losing in the league because the opposition in England is not strong enough

But they are losing in Europe unless you want to tell us that they were losing intentionally

In order words, Atletico will be top of the EPL if they were in England...Does it make any sense to you?

The UCL is over two legs, Liverpool know they have a return leg at Anfield thus you don't expect them to go all out gong ho to win the game compared to a league game where every win accounts for 3 pts...Srop being mischievous for the sake of it.

Melvyn11:
Atletico are the first real competitive opponents Liverpool have played in a while and they weren’t used to it. The Premier league right now is absolute garbage in terms of overall quality and nothing anyone can say can change that. Atletico put a level of performance today that the other teams below Liverpool in their current state cannot match.

Give it a rest, we have seen Southampton, Watford and the likes put up good performances against Liverpool.

Cup competitions are quite different from league games. What you are implying is that Atletico are better than anything Liverpool have faced in the EPL but if we put Atletico in the EPL, I am sure they'd struggle to make second place.

All Liverpool need do is win the second well with a better margin and they're through to the next round which is all that matters and not just the result after 90mims. For a La Liga fan, need I remind you of the fortress that is Anfield?

raumdeuter:
Just stick with you dont understand

Liverpool has won 25 league games in the league

In 7 CL games they have won 4

What can you deduce

The UCL is a knockout competition where you can lose one game 5 vs 0 and still go ahead to qualify if you win the next game 6 vs 0. It's a cup competition and the approach is different compared to a league...

If Liverpool goes ahead to win the UCL, nobody will remember they lost to Atletico Madrid, I expect you to know better or are being mischievous on purpose?

A40:
Lool why are the mandem contorting body like Carmen Hayes just so they don't give Klopp and Liverpool credit. It's painful

What we are seeing no team in English League history has done. The least people can do is applaud their consistency not find excuses to bash it at every turn

Exactly, even though I am a Manchester United fan, I can't help but applaud Liverpool for their consistency over the past 2 seasons.

The funny thing is that if Liverpool overturn the scoreline at Anfield, they'll resort to berating the refs...Well, I'd put it down to human nature, people are bound to hate on you when you're successful.

A40:
Wait fess. Are you guys expecting Liverpool to go unbeaten both in England and Europe?

Let's even understand the orisun of this una argument.

And if you are then kindly show us any team that has gone the entire season unbeaten both in England and Europe. From Pep's Barca, to Zidane's Madrid or Sacchi's Milan

It's just funny how guys see things.

Liverpool have home advantage to count on and if any football fan can comfortably open his mouth to yarn dust after today about Liverpool then that person shouldn't be more than a joke because we have seen too much of Liverpool and their magic at Anfield to think otherwise.

Even Pep's Barca, Juup's Bayern, Manchester United 99 team and Zidane's Madrid team lost games so I don't understand Raumdeuter and his minions.

Haaland is the real deal...

BlueAngel444:
Nothing spectacular

Ok

MRTA7:
Seems like he prefers playing from the left now.

He is adept playing anywhere behind the striker. I think the plan is to see him free to roam the pitch.

Sancho is playing well.

Ibime:
Are you no longer a Chelsea fan?

Your use of language referring to us as una is disturbing

Effect of association...

larride:
I bring to you Pastor Fred.

Fred >>>>>>>>>>>> Kante.


Argue with this pics.

Fred is even laughing at the boy Kante for trying so hard. Inside life...
