alexscottislegend 2,318 Posted January 7, 2020 Share Posted January 7, 2020 Thought Liverpool were brilliant. One of their youngsters , HARVEY ELLIOTT has been linked with us. A left-sided player who seems to play mostly on the right. Would offer more than Ojo IMO. A more general point: how come L'pool can afford to play 5-6 teenagers in an FA Cup (not Carabao Cup) against a full-strength experienced Everton? Could we do that v Stranraer? If we don't have 4 or 5 youth to come in and do that then you have to question our youth policy. Why have a development squad if they are not being developed? 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Because Liverpool don't care about the FA Cup. They were more concerned with the World Club Championship and the league. For Liverpool this season, the FA Cup may as well be the Carabao Cup. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Their holy grail is the title which is much like Rangers right now. I suspect they would prefer the title over being CL winners in consecutive seasons. Luckily for them the title looks to be already in the bag. I feel Klopp may want to win that title in consecutive seasons plus add another CL trophy before deciding maybe my job is done here. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fenway Sports are a great company and know how to build sports brands. He is well on the way to achieving a dynasty there, much as it pains me to say it. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

My Australian cousin - and Rangers fan - has adopted Arsenal as his English team purely on the basis that in the sixties, and for some time afterwards, we would play each other every season - so had a kind of bond. I also remember Arsenal lending us Highbury to play Red Star when we needed a neutral venue. (Think we lost, though - not sure.) 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
