I assume It's the racial abuse he's received online since the own goal that she was gonna ask Virgil about, not the og itself.

Ah - that makes a lot of sense - it would explain how they were talking about it. I didn't realise as I have fked off twitter so I am less informed when these things happen and as I am not a horrific mutant, I didnt even think that could be the case.

How sad. I know it is the minority that do it, but they are getting ever louder. So sad.

I would think Spurs are more of a threat so an Arsenal win would be preferred by me.

I could live with that.

I hope they play 3 upfront.

I dont think either of them will be near us the end of the season unless we drop off a distance. Reckon Spurs will fall away as there are clearly some gremlins there. Think Spurs have the better team on the day, but can see that Arsenal squad finishing above them come the end of the season.

Would he have won the golden boot 2 seasons running and set a premier league goal scoring record if he elected to pass more often when there was a chance to shoot?

I don't care if Salah wins the Golden Boot. I care about the team scoring the most goals as possible, especially since our main title rival score for fun.

Another thing I'll note is that Salah scored 40+ goals a couple of seasons ago when he was more selfless and "only" 20 odd last season being more selfish.

Who was that had them finishing 3rd?

Adam?

Might have been






Very happy to be proven wrong so far,


Great result at a tricky place to go, seemed Mane was arguing with one of the coachs

Is Salah too greedy?

Yes, you love him and I mind less so when 2-0 up but it’s been going on for some time now and come the end of the season who knows if goal difference will matter

Goal difference won't matter a jot. Sadio will be fine by now. Salah's nowhere near as greedy as Studge was and everybody kissed his arse non-stop!

The Salah and Mane incident is being made bigger than it was purely because of Mane’s reaction.

They’re both selfish at times. That’s why they have the numbers they produce but you only have to look at the highlight to see just how quick the passage of play was.

The last 5 seconds of this.

It’s ok picking a photo of Salah on the ball and Mane free but Salah received the ball and would have had to control release it ridiculously quick under pressure to even find Mane.
Salah has scored from them positions and as a striker would have had only 1 thing on his mind.

I’m in the penalty box, I’m shooting.

Well done to the 2 defenders who closed him down so quickly.

Match of the Day doing a piece on Firmino and how average he is.

I assume the conclusion is "bang" average?

Tim Cahill is a pundit tonight and how appropriate for Bobby to be called, in an Australian accent, a sick .

They said we should replace him with someone like Kane.

Did they mention anything about us having no midfield?

Surely they must've said that LB's & RB's are just squad filling positions?

How on Earth do you know that now?

Last season it was looking like a tie might be possible but City had the “extra bonus point” due to GD, might be a close season again

I still make city favourites, but we just need to keep doing what we're doing, gonna be a long season.

Laporte injured yesterday, Kompany gone, our strikers having a flounce things like these could be a factor over 38 games.

just seen the laporte injury. Looks like a nasty one. A 6 monther

It may well come down to the results of our games against city, which it pretty much did last season

You’re results against city allowed hem to close the gap and get them back near contention.

It was not beating Everton that let it slip.

This season I really think that Liverpool are totally placed to dominate right through and city players will almost become ‘bored’ of the PL. LFC will remain totally focused to deliver the title and city players minds will wander with a few surprise results making them slip behind.
