Van Dijk is pulled out of position far more times than is comfortable when he's alongside Lovren ,when he plays with Gomez the two compliment each other in as much as they compensate for the weakness of the other ,it was the same with Hyypia and Henchoz .
Lovren just isn't in the same bracket...
A thoroughly professional performance from the reds ,we would have dropped points in that game last season but its evident this Liverpool team has a lot more consistency and are setting about their vocation with real menace ,Salah's pace coupled with his dexterity on the ball was frightening...
I'm thinking around 9.30 tonight when I suggest I accompany her to bed and if its just the obligatory Gallic shrug she throws me then I can work my way around that :shifty: If its a stream of French expletives then its me and the cognac.
I've woke up with a hangover from hell after the works Christmas party shenanigans ,so I'm retaining a low profile as the wife isn't a happy bunny after I slept in the consecrated grounds of her orangery.
I will of course be less covert and less meek when the disgruntled one retires to bed and...
I thought the Scandinavian King was Roy 'Mr Malmo' Hodgson ? Well I'm pretty sure he's not going to take this lying down or indeed seated on his favourite commode !
Both brazen and disingenuous were directed at the sponsor mate ,Pogba doesn't strike me as an individual blessed with the intelligence to be that duplicitous.
Yeah ,I've seen that tossed around as an excuse by Adidas to exonerate their client .
So ,this marketing campaign suddenly thrown into the mix 30 mins after the news on the managers dismissal couldn't have been shelved when the realization it would be viewed as improper and ill timed became...
The picture of Pogba that swamped social media was imo everything that is wrong with today's game and rather than the 'tilted hat' he thought it would prove,it was simply a pointer
towards his distinct lack of any discernible class.
Is there anything else you want for Xmas ? What about an audio book of Juan Mata narrating (possibly have to crank the sound up) A Tale Of Two Cities ?
Mate's who threaten to confront a person with menace and then proceed to approach the situation in the most none threatening manner possible ,thus allowing the recipient of the scolding the confidence to say "Fuck off " which then see's said mate looking across the pub for back up...
Congratulations fella ,I'm just glad someone is winning because after the weekend I'm down 2 bills,so the wife can slum it as its going to be fucking Krackawheat after tea instead of her Langues de chat, which seems fair because she takes great delight in forgetting my fucking Hobnobs every week.
Spudz with the worst possible draw there ,Dortmund are flying at the minute and they were the team I was most fearful of drawing. Bayern will struggle with the energy and pace of our front three and the manager knows them well ,so the element of surprise is removed straightaway. All in all...
Everton looked positively dazzled by the light blue to the extent the lower limbs of their defenders simultaneously seized up ,like Gods light had temporarily stilled the messages sent from the brain which aid coordinated movement.
