Spurs can do far better than this. Though credit to Everton, they have been on a good run. Why are you banned during such an occasion Farid :[?
Second :0? What leagues do you usually watch?

I'm American so none so far.
Xintin did you watch today's match? If so what did you think? I thought we were pretty good for 80% of the match actually! Good chances, faster play, decent defending, more "attacking football" than usual, a great free kick by Mata, a wonderfully set up goal...not bad.
Also, Luiz as a right back. Yes, finally.
I know but I want us to finish above them anyway!!!!!
Why the heck has Harry been going for this formation for a while now when it clearly isn't helping?
Whoa. During the reverse fixture Everton did not have ONE SHOT ON TARGET. Ridiculous.

no I missed it, only caught updates on gamecast. hopefully I can catch a replay later today on FSC. I like what RDM is doing so far though, changing tactics, not afraid to shake the lineups around (Mata on the bench was a bit of a shock). From your description though, us being able to put on an attacking display against a team like Stoke, and their style of play, is a good thing.
Hello you
Barcelona are a boring team to watch, especially for a newcomer. No one wants to see a team get passed to death. He should watch some of the clashes between the top 4 in the PL, this season. The quality has decreased from recent years but there have been mountains of goals and massive amounts of hilarity.
That is, in fact, a perfectly reasonable thing to say.
But when I said deluded, I was referring to the unrealistic expectations (such as expecting their team to challenge for the title in the past few seasons and in this season, to be challenging for a CL slot) that Liverpool fans generally have had of their team for many years now which is exemplified by the posts I quoted. And this is despite the consistent empirical evidence of the club's lack of sucess on the pitch. If this isn't the definition of delusion, then what is? The poster said Liverpool is "a top ten team, nothing more" and was greeted with vehemence by fans who believed that their club is more than what he said it was. Can anyone really say he is wrong now?
This is called "reading between the lines". Is it really that hard?

Ha damn that guy went flying like a torpedo
Thanks fellas. Good stuff. Jason - actually that video is good for a new fan like myself .. gives me some appreciation for the skill these guys truly have to control the ball and they're not just randomly kicking around.

Read my response above.
I guess I was expecting too much from the Liverpool fans in the intelligence department. I get it. I will make my points easier to understand next time.
The post were in response to somebody writing off Liverpool after five games which is silly to do to any club. A lot of people including non Liverpool fans thought we would have a go at fourth place this year and up until last weekend it was still a possibility.
Where are these Liverpool fans who think we can win the league?
Like I said earlier it was a poor attempt to troll and you could do with a few lessons from our rival fans on here. let's not for one minute now pretend that you wanted a serious discussion, Nothing worse than somebody backtracking.

So am I understanding properly that if things stay as they are right now at the end of the season QPR, Wolverhampton, and Wigan will get relegated to a lower league?
I think a 4-3-3 might work.
What's happened to Spurs recently? Few weeks ago they were flying and I assumed they were a lock for that third place. Look a bit lost since that Arsenal defeat.

Yes, and we can all rejoice at the removal of QPR.
Injuries, suspensions and the like - I think they could be in trouble for the top 4 if we can pull some damn results out of our asses.

a) Why do you say that? What's QPRs reputation?
b) What's the lower league called?
c) What teams are most likely to move up?
Wow. After our strong end to last season, and considering the fact we spent £100m on players, how exactly was it a stretch to put Liverpool getting a CL spot? If you look at the second post in the thread, there's a summary of everyone's league predications. Go ahead and look how many non-Liverpool fans had us in 4th or higher.
a) QPR haven't helped themselves by having two wankers in succession as a manager, mental owners, and moneybags that make them think they're better than they are. Also a few of their players are dicks
b) confusingly, the next league is the NPower Championship and is followed by League One and League Two. We don't know why.
c) Southampton and West Ham should be the trams to come up automatically if I had to bet.
Fuck off with your lies! Glen's hair is wonderful.
José Mourinho
cocknose
a) Well they're a rival London club to Chelsea, but we got duped when we played them at their ground earlier in the season.
b) The Championship
c) Not sure, I don't follow the Championship too closely.
If Spurs miss out on the CL spot because they fuck it up in the coming months then I hope they can get use to the "Modric is leaving" rumors that will plague their transfer window because that's exactly what will happen.
For point (B) I'm sure it was renamed to be more attractive for sponsors or something along those lines anyway.
Would take a fuck up of epic proportions for Spurs to miss out on the CL but if they did what would happen to the Harry for England stories?
Quite like the league as well. Always fun matches at the top and the play offs are normally full of drama.
It is a great league, very unpredictable
Also Charlton were 4-0 down at home to Northampton at one point today after only losing once at home all season. Lot of fun in the lower leagues
Na it's all about Reading <3 reading fc

Defoe off, VDV on, Modric into the middle. It's really not that hard.
Seriously, this is the worst trolling attempt Football-GAF has seen. Lunchbox or Chriswok do it well.
Been there a few times, I've caught a Reading game in the middle of the festival when there were no good bands on once haha, and a friend who goes uni there.
You wanna see delusional.

I have found that most of scouseGAF are reasonable and well thought out fellas and no where near as bad as the pondscum that frequents that mad house.
Sunderland is a hard place to go especially now under the reign of MON, City lost there ffs, admittedly in the worst part of our season.
