Coli soccer brehs told me they were done and that Klopp ran them to the ground :beli:

They needed to have a down year to cycle off. :manny:

Klopp owed his guys that after pushing the human body to its limits for two straight seasons and getting a CL & PL out of it.

Liverpool cannot win this season because physically, scientifically and morally they cannot. They cannot overdose again on caffeine because of the side-effects. They cannot keep up the pace with other substances and painkillers because the amounts needed to win the league would cause a slew of injuries.

According to a source close to the club, of 35 players 22 are asthmatic – 63% of the squad, over five times higher than the 12% UK average. With so many sickly players and COVID-19 threatening these at risk players, it’s already dangerous. To keep the players at the max for an entire season, on numerous fronts, substances to enhance and support performance are needed.

I’m a Chelsea fan but I have to say Bayern Munich are the strongest team in the champions league competition this season. They look absolutely formidable in all positions and I can’t see anyone stopping them.

Liverpool like Arsenal got lucky in the summer with their players.

Out of the 11 players picked in the summer for their countries.

3 are no longer at the club. Shaqiri Gini and Kabak.

From the outfield players Jota (4/4 g 323/360m) & Robertson (3/3g 270/270m) played the most minutes and started every game for their country. Firmino (5/7g 216/630m) played the next most started only 2 games was on the bench for 2 and subbed in for 3 and never played more than 65 mins.

Henderson (4/7g 151/690m) and Fabinho 4/7g 190/630m) Henderson no starts Fabinho started and completed 2 games. After Henderson's injury that ended his season the Euros was basically pre season for him.

Thiago was basically a mascot

Allisson was rotated with Ederson and Williams is what with everyone fit a 4 choice RB behind Milner and Gomez.

VVD Trent Mane and Salah all had the summer off.

liverpool would beat bayern and real madrid (more often than not) are good enough to give them a good smacking.

bayern haven't beaten madrid outright since 2001 - which is some 8 ties ago.

madrid won 5 of the other 7 outright (including the last 3). bayern squeezed past them once on penalties and once on the away goals rule.

liverpool beat bayern in their only recent meeting in 2019.

You stay hating on Bayern for some reason I dont get it. They have undoubtedly been the strongest team of the past 2 years, not only that but they score at a ludicrous rate, keep a strong pressure all throughout 90 minutes and Nagelsmann even managed to revive Sané which I had for lost following the Euro :picard:

This year, they seem on par if not better than last year. Bayern has weaknesses and teams can feed off that super high back line but other than that, there's not much you can do against them above all if Lewy is on that night.

Facing Bayern, you'll necessarily would have to score 2 or 3 because it's certain that they will find the net at least once.

Yeah that's my only concern

Liverpool can deffo give them a good game but that leaky backline... Bayern would have a field day

Hopefully with Matip and Loso back we can keep more clean sheets
