    Steveo, you don't learn and know all your team mates games, strengths and weaknesses or have their shared collective experience and mentality of getting through and winning and persevering against the odds spectacularly so many times in less than half a season

    Thiago joined 'the mentality monsters' he wasn't one of them

    He still doesn't know our other lads games and where and when they want the ball and what kind of ball they want after 3 seasons :ekk: you're the only one here who either doesn't see tnat or refuses to

    A football team is a bit like a band and Thiago's still trying to tell the rest of the band how to write a song when they had so many hits without him he needs to play to the band's tune not think they should all play to his, that's always been the problem with him

    Oh yes 19.. As mentioned Thiago knows sweet FA about winning titles.

    He only has the 11 to his name across 2 of Europe’s top leagues - and missed out last term by a single point in a 3rd …. versus our mentality monster’s and their - er….drum roll…. 1..😉

    At some point, even you will have to accept the facts.

    Oh great… So who plays alongside Virgil?

    Matip in for Konate

    Liverpool XI: Alisson, Robertson, Van Dijk, Matip, Alexander-Arnold, Jones, Fabinho, Henderson, Jota, Gakpo, Salah.

    Subs: Kelleher, Gomez, Tsimikas, Carvalho, Thiago, Milner, Elliott, Diaz, Nunez.

    Starting Fab despite the risk. Got no choice really. Strong bench at least. lots of attacking options

    In all fairness, David Moyes is doing a decent job at West Ham.

    2x FIFA Club World Cup winner ·

    7x German Champion · In a one team league, it's not really an achievement winning the title as a Bayern player with the vastly superior squads they had the luxury of compared to all the other sides

    In14-15 played in just 7 games, 3 of them losses and 4 as a sub playing less than half an hour

    4x Spanish Champion - 12 league games played in one season mostly sub only 5 full games played 27 in another mostly sub cameos only played 9 full games, a proper Fabian Delph, this is not a player who has meaningfully contributed to 4 La Liga titles, at best you could credit him with 1 for his 9 full appearances in a 2 team league

    2x Spanish Cup winner Only played in the Spanish Cup in one season so only one Spanish Cup

    2x Uefa Supercup winner Didn't play in the Super Cup for Barca so only one Super Cup

    4X German cup winner One team League and Cup nation in reality Didn't play in one final win at all and only played 3 minutes as a late sub in another

    3X German Supercup winner One team League and Cup nation in reality

    1X English cup winner

    1X English Supercup winner
    Still quite impressive, albeit in a notorious 2 team league as a bit part player and not being an integral part of ANY of the Barcelona league title wins

    And the German league is even worse a complete one team league bar the odd freakish seasons Bayern make bad calls on managerial appointments

    Thiago has picked up an awful lot of medals for winning things he hasn't made any contribution to in quite a few cases and not a meaningful one in others

    He's been a bit like some of those City lads picking up medals for things they didn't 'really' win
