No Carms. That's a typical throw away comment with no subtance. Why don't you tell me how much deb't we'd owe our owners (or banks) if our owners walked away tomorrow. And whilst you are researching, why not also tell me how much Spurs would owe the Banks (you don't even have to include the new stadium). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BangrakBob Posted May 2, 2018 Share Posted May 2, 2018 12 hours ago, mrbojangles said: So you're 3rd in the net spend table and 3rd in the prem league. Seriously, what is that proving? Is it that your owners want to be like Swansea and Sot'on? Or that you are the 4th biggest spenders but have sold a lot of your best players. Why pick 2014, does that suit some stat? Honestly Bob, I really find it bemusing showing stats like that, as it doesn't tell anything apart from what you want it to. Personally, I'm happy no matter what we spend as long as we remain financially stable and not up to our necks in debt. Football clubs aren't meant to generate money by selling players alone, you generate more by winning things and becoming more marketable. It pains me to say it but United's business model is probably the best around and their owners probably don't give a hoot on net spend of players as long as they are generating cash elsewhere Not entirely sure why you’re getting your panties in a bunch there Shirley. i didn’t mention City or their spending. It’s interesting for us Liverpool fans to see how our owners are operating. I’d be delighted if they spent more money on good players. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm just bemused why Net spend on players is such a hot topic on this forum. It doesn't paint the whole picture. You say "it’s interesting for us Liverpool fans to see how our owners are operating" Well the full picture is that with all your net spend, TV money, gate receipts, huge fan base etc you are in the Top 20 of the European clubs with the most debt. So how exactly are your owners operating? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's not in doubt that Liverpool have won European honours but he's trying desperately to avoid admitting they haven't won the Premier. No big deal; it's just R2D2 on one of his daily sniping raids - he'll be over sniping on the Spurs thread soon so I wouldn't encourage him if I was you.

We have never won the league whilst it has been called the premiership. If it was renamed the carabao premier league for next season. You would be able to say that too. All the times over the years you have had the chance to dominate in the elite European competitions and you have never had a sniff have you. Must be hard to see a team with much less resources outplay you and then show you how it should be done in knockout competitions. If anything it's a lesson you should hope to learn from and maybe one day emulate. Until then just watch how it's done. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There you R2D2, doesn't that feel better to get it out instead brooding over it. It's 28 years and counting since you were champions of England. I will watch how it's done. Over to your boys to beat Real (I think the luck is with you and you will - next season in the Premier you'll 'up your game' for the big games but lack consistency against the lesser teams to win the Premier).

carmine Posted May 3, 2018 Share Posted May 3, 2018 Well done Liverpool. Great fun, well i was going to say , for the neutral but of course i wasn't. Should be a great final. I'm not at all convinced by RM even thought they seem to have some kind of divine backing. I did sit back at the end thinking how good this Liverpool might be if VVD had a Toby Alderweirald next to him and a better keeper. That was food for thought. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That was food for thought. we never do anything easy so i didn't expect it to be straightforward. think the aggregate scoreline flattered them a little bit but that's really down to our switching off and two farcical penalty calls by the officials. madrid do seem to have some thing going on with this trophy don't they but somebody's got to stop them some time. hopefully we'll have a decent number of players to pick from by the final. but a brilliant achievement in getting there, so proud of klopp and all the players. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

wilai Posted May 3, 2018 Share Posted May 3, 2018 Was never too worried about the result last night but it is a little concerning that despite VVD's influence, we have a tendency to switch off and drop far too deep at times. TAA and Lovren are then targeted with long diagonals on the edge of our box. Would prefer we kept a higher line and used our pace to recover anything over the top. As to the decisions, I don't want to moan too much as some went our way and others didn't but it seems impossible for us to be awarded a pen these days! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Think they got a couple of lucky calls, you got a bit lucky when Trent handled, seen them given, but all in all fair result. Thing to concern about is that Real Madrid don't seem to get bad calls against them!! You need to replace Lovren. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
