this is sick, this is the kinda thing you get printed and stick up all over your academy and show the kids what’s possible, even if none of them make it at Liverpool every one of them is a huge success for the club already
6’3” and the most perfect balance of talent, skill, poise, grace, finesse, brains, power, mobility and athleticism
jack of all trades master of everything, to this day still my favourite player ever

I could cry rn man. He’s (or was) a fucking unicorn. It’s not normal for a 6’4” player to be that mobile, agile and smooth at dribbling. As far as i know only him Zidane and Zlatan are the only 6’2+ players that were capable of it
4 big defenders who want to defend, 2 big central midfielders, right-footer on the right wing, left-footer on the left wing, big-man little-man partnership up top, welcome to England, welcome to the 1990s
it just hit me that if you changed just 5 Liverpool results from the last 5 years, they would be CL winners, then invincible centurions + CL double winners, centurions again and then quadruple winners
🚨DID YOU KNOW: The two seasons prior to David Silva joining Real Sociedad, the club had never reached the top of La Liga.
In his first season, they held 1st place for seven weeks of the season.
Now they are at the top again for the 5th week in a row whilst on a 16-game unbeaten
this lot deciding Jorginho, Christensen and Rüdiger are the greatest players to ever play the game over the past 6 months despite leathering them with homophobic, misogynistic and racial abuse during throughout their Chelsea careers is hilarious man
Bernardo Silva:
"I'm not complaining here, but I feel like other clubs get a lot more credit than Man City for doing less. Here at Man City, you do something great and they make it look like it's just good."

think he might be the only player who could have 7 seasons, 339 appearances, 131 goals, 95 assists, 4 Premier Leagues and 8 other trophies to his name and have people even ask this question
the funniest thing about this is that he’s only half joking, he lives the sport so intensely that he probably knows every little fact and statistic about his team and an issue that glaring and obvious probably keeps him up at night the big weirdo
it’s kinda incredible how Grealish improved instantly the moment he didn’t have a false-fullback trying to do exactly the same things in the same areas

refusing to align yourself with the ideologies of ‘the West’ and how they view LGBTQIA+ people is one thing
refusing to take part in a token gesture to support them against oppression, abuse and criminalisation is another
why should I respect you or your decision
Ruben’s first 3 seasons in England have been absolutely outrageous 😭 PL 3peat, the treble, 6 trophies, PFA/CL/FIFPro XI spots… just need him to get the armband and win some trophies as captain and score some Kompany-esque big goals and we’re blagging our way in to PL goat talk
United are much more likely to beat us in that FA Cup final if they sack Ten Hag and put some football erritejj shagging cheerleader like Darren Fletcher or Nicky Butt in as interim who’ll just shout “we’re Manchester United” at them and then pick the 11 who shout it back loudest
Bruno when he’s playing badly is the biggest net-negative footballer I’ve ever seen, the worse he gets the more he wants the ball and he then proceeds to get even worse, as he carries on doing shit things in this vicious never ending cycle of terrible football
he put his body on the line to bring the treble home presumably because he knew this was his biggest and best shot at it, I don’t wanna hear jokes about him not playing the 90 last night man, this injury might actually be the beginning of the end for him
i don’t really get how (some of) their fans are so happy talking about him as a footballer and just a footballer like nothing else is attached to his name anymore, it’s baffling to me
Thomas Partey is the difference for us in the tougher games. His ability to play through the lines on the ball & his positional discipline off the ball is what makes him world class. Due back next week vs Everton & ideally need him playing every PL game until the end of October.
Liverpool winning the quadruple beating Chelsea in both domestic cup finals, finishing above City in 2nd & Chelsea in 3rd and beating City in the CL final would be the most comprehensive season of dominance by a club over a league and country ever ffs, we cannot let it happen
Boateng did all this, Marcos Alonso killed a woman, Mendy was arrested for rape and was bailed - then abused more women whilst out on bail, Ronaldo has accusations up to the eyeballs and nobody cares, Giggs headbutted a woman and was given a box and a hero’s welcome at OT...
boateng punched his partner so bad he punctured her kidney, bit her on the head, threw glass at her, etc etc. was found GUILTY and what is he doing? playing football in france. the justice system is so fucked.
bidding £110m and clearly briefing everyone about it only to be told to fuck off cos he still only wants to join a team that finished 12th last season might be the biggest transfer L in recent memory??????
Walker has made 17 starts for England at major tournaments (World Cups & Euros), Trent has made 17 starts for England in total, and James has made about 9
