Your team v Atalanta second keg

All Comps ^^

[Nineteenx]

Our squad hasn’t had many muscle strain injuries they’ve mostly been caused by opposition fouls & I regularly looked at the EPL Injury league table & there are a fair few teams who’ve had it worse than us with most of theirs being muscle or tendon strain injuries not impact injuries

I EXPECT our lads to get the win by 4 or more goals, in a ‘Tsunami of swagger’

That was you starting off, referencing me in particluar.

You've had no reply to my post since, duly noted.

You have come back with



Can you please clarify

A) Who does play 100 million mile an hour football, or exclusively
Which English managers embody a blitzkrieg approach 🤔

B) if Klopp doesn't play this style exclusively is he looking to eradicate it, or minimise it and to what extent

For me
Top teams play at the highest intensity and Klopp has been in the top 3 world sides for his tenure. Dropped out on occasion perhaps but on average he's been thwarted by City & Real over this era.

And Sevilla - And Atletico.

Also worth noting that beating Spurs in Madrid is not the same as beating Madrid in Spurs.

At some point you’ll figure it out CC.

You said

"The thing is - so many of you (you and CC in particular - who love your million mile an hour football over tippy tappy crappy) seem to have forgotten what happens when you are fatigued or stretched from too many consecutive games and too many hard miles (in this case on a young lad who would never have played at this intensity and level for so long)"

I don't recall ever using this phrase, or expressed anything to that effect.

You didn't reply to my post on my actual views.

And haven't answered a question put to you more recently for clarity.

One last point regards Bradley

Bradley 23/24 season
22 games & 1,485 minutes
67.5 minutes per appearance
30/11/23 to 14/4/24
20 week season
74.25 minutes per week

Trent 18/19 season (same age)
40 games & 3,338 minutes
83.45 minutes per appearance
12/8/18 to 1/6/19
46 week season
72.6 minutes per week

Trent played 2.24 times the minutes that season and was playing longer per appearance.
Bradley has played 1.65 minutes more per week.

Maybe if you presented your x milion miles an hour assessment of Klopps LFC in 18/19 & his reduced rate in 23/24, perhaps we could see if Trents lesser minutes per week was actually a greater load/burden...

It seems Klopps treated them rather similarly

Facilitating reply to this post Steveo. Klopps lost finals to Madrid and Sevilla and beat spurs.

The match thread should make for good reading!

Why is it every Liverpool fan I speak to gives us a chance tonight ?
This is what Jurgen has give us, a never say die attitude.

Useless facts time -

In our history, we have lost four first-leg ties at Anfield in European competition. These losses have been against -

- Leeds - 70/71
- Chelsea - 08/09
- Real Madrid - 22/23
- Atalanta - 23/24

We have progressed in none of our previous three attempts, so history is against us tonight, however that is no reason not to try.

We have lost BOTH legs of a European knock-out tie just eight times in our history. These two-legged defeats came against -

- Ferencvaros - 66/67
- Red Star Belgrade - 72/73
- Genoa - 91/92
- Spartak Moscow - 92/93
- Celta Vigo - 97/98
- Benfica - 05/06
- Atletico Madrid - 19/20
- Real Madrid - 22/23

Resident opinion-divider Darwin Núñez can join some ridiculously illustrious company tonight if he scores. Darwin has scored 9 goals in 17 European appearances for us, with the fastest players to accomplish 10 European goals in a Red shirt being –

- Mo Salah - 13 appearances
- Sadio Mane - also 13 appearances
- Robbie Fowler - 16 appearances
- Roger Hunt - 18 appearances

Núñez remains our top scorer in the Europa this season with 5 goals.
