Essential The Official Football (Soccer) Thread - RIP Diogo Jota

[TobiOT]

Liverpool manager Jurgen Klopp believes snow on the Anfield pitch contributed to a frustrating night for his Premier League leaders as they were held to a draw by mid-table Leicester City
Liverpool extended their advantage over nearest rivals Manchester City to five points yet failed to build on Sadio Mane's early goal on a pitch that Klopp believes made quick passing more difficult.

"You saw that the ball didn't roll really," said the German, whose side were denied a second-half penalty when Naby Keita was fouled by Ricardo Pereira.

"If you then have the ball pretty much for 70 to 80% of the time it makes life really uncomfortable.

"The only problem is if it stays on the pitch and that was actually the case."

Liverpool. You see Man City lose, get favourable referee decisions and still, that's all they can muster?



It's like they don't even want to win the league.

Buy a striker and score 0 goals breh.


Its time for Sarri to bounce. Forcing your shytty Napoli tactics aint working. Jorginho aint working. Moving your best player (kante) as an attacking Mid is not working.


We got a lot of issues to fix and i doubt Roman gives two fukks at this point

City lost to that same Leicester team just a month ago.

That 4-3-1.2 formation tho that would get torn apart in modern football. Imagine playing that against City or Barca

Real Madrid won the CL playing 4312.

I don't know why you think quoting some random Madrid fan account whining about something entirely legal is worth giving a fraction of a fractal of a fukk about, but I'll indulge:

1) Why do you care? Puel has said nothing about it and none of the Leicester players have said anything about it.
2) We have home field advantage.
3) But let's say it's not legal, and Leicester file a formal complaint. What should the punishment be? A fine? 5 point subtraction? A formal apology from Klopp, John Henry, and the ghost of Bill Shankly? What is the point?

Even in american football teams usually choose to play with the wind on their side. Since throwing against the wind makes it obviously more difficult.
Teams in all sports look for advantage,this nikka already whinning


Whats next liverpool play a day after city so thats cheating? man dudes in here acting like city have been dominating the league like juve for the last 7 years so it was given. t forgetting chelsea and lesceiter have also won the league during that period.Cant even make an european final and already acting outta pocket

Real Madrid won the CL playing 4312.

Juve also went to the finals in 2015 playing like that, it's an underappreciated formation in this era of wingers blindly crossing the ball, I miss it.

Sarri has his flaws but not a single lie is told here.

i agree. the players have no heart except a few while the rest are aging careless chumps.

makes no fukking sense why we sell/loan our young promising talent and sign aging has beens.

Is snow in Germany somehow different?

City, Barca, PSG and Liverpool are prolly the only teams with TWO truly world class wingers. I'd take this formation against anyone else.

Prime Kaka, Prime Pirlo dropping dimes, Sedorff/Maldini on one side... Very slept upon Cafu on the other. And people forget Shevchenko was UNSTOPPABLE at this time. Pippo the X-Factor.

I'd put this Milan team up against most of the teams now with this formation and they'd at the VERY least make semis of the UCL.
