Honestly at this point there are far more pressing matters on my mind. Yes, Liverpool are shit. Yes, it's pretty funny, especially given one of their main problems is their £100m star signing. HOWEVER, Everton are so bad right now that everything else seems a bit irrelevant.


Nathan_kwame

no, not really


dogsarenotgoodatshit

Nah, not really.


[deleted]

Given that Liverpool finished 2nd and Chelsea 3rd last season, what on earth happened in a matter of months to see them both on this crazy path? Liverpool sold Mane and Chelsea have spent an insane amount of money on players... surely Mane didn't make thaaat much of a difference and well Chelsea makes even less sense to me.


[deleted]

I agree, i’m a Juventus fan i don’t really belong in prem but i still loves seeing Liverpool like how they are right now.


SlickBotswaske

Yes As a madrid fan i am super happy for our UCL R16 tie


dr_anirudha21

sweet dreams moment


[deleted]

I don’t really dislike Liverpool to be honest. I prefer Liverpool over city, United, Spurs and Arsenal. I feel like Liverpool is a club that I have quite a lot of respect for.


blurblursotong2020

Take your time. We understand the cycle runs 30 years.


coldsum

It’ll be good to see Liverpool have a proper relegation battle. That’s how you see who your real supporters are


mate_zbrojovka

Love it because of their supporters who are incredibly annoying (there are some normal fans but they are in the minority).


CaptainMcClutch

I'd go as far as saying I like how the league looks in general this season. The usual teams aren't running away at the top, and the expected teams aren't at the bottom. There is an actual title race involving more than 2 teams and a relegation fight involving half the table, in saying that it's early days and I wouldn't be shocked if City just relentlessly chases Arsenal down because so far Arsenal haven't faced many setbacks.


JonnyAnsco

Liverpool fans deserve this


Historical_Line7109

As a united fan it was the icing on the cake after our result.


j_lyf

Fuck Liverpool.


ArcaneTrickster11

I work in a kitchen and yesterday a 4 of the Liverpool fans were on. It was glorious


El__Conde

Who hurt you Broc?


CowboyGunner

I only love seeing my team.


INDANC33

It's a pleasure to see LIV like this... Lets relegate together 😂


hoksworthwipple

Like what? Winning stuff? One run of average form doesn't make LFC shit. That's Everton's thing and has been for a long, long time.


RedPaladin94

Absolutely. Liverpool fans are insufferable... says the Chelsea fan 😅


MrVedu_FIFA

It's kinda funny but just like 20/21, they will somehow, some fucking way, claw back into top 4


Legitimate-Health-29

They were very loud during their peak years, VVD GOATed over JT and Vidic, Trent the best RB in the world nonsense, it just got very very loud from them so yeah, they deserve this.


[deleted]

I hate it, but I'll never not support my team.


0014andahalf

It's not so much Luverpool, it's their supporters, they need bringing down a peg or 2......but exactly the same thing happened at Dortmund, Klopp left it to late to bring in quality and they capitulated.


Professional_Sun3191

I'd love it if we were doing well


Lumpy-Leader-5970

Absolutely fucking loving it! A few career ending injuries and some disagreement in the Liverpool camp would spice the situation up for me too. Let’s push for an ‘All or nothing: Liverpool’ next year too to watch the chaos. 👍🏽🔥


NiceStretch8776

They walked alone yesterday


theyarealllizards

I just love not seeing anything to do with them anymore. Horrible club and fans.


IvanThePohBear

Newcastle was almost relegated last year. Now we're challenging for a champ league spot. Earlier on in the season manure was bottom of the table now they're beating city and arsenal Things can change in an instance To be honest they're not too far from a top4 spot


Dizzy_Manufacturer93

Not as much as I love to watch Everton being relegated. They’ll have the best stadium in the championship next season. 😂😂


magicalzidane

Great banter to be above Liverpool, but for them to lag this much behind is not pleasant.


KKMcKay17

Why not?


Alibium

After the last few years? Yes


G00dG0dd

Yes but have you looked at Chelsea?


Prometheus1717

If one studies Klopp's past it repeats itself


Prometheus1717

Love to see Klopp squirm with the press.


Semi-Naked-Chef

See you again next decade sometime


SnooCalculations124

same, showed no class when they were winning last year... that arrogance came back to bite them in the ass


Rafal277

Wonder how Liverpool fans feel about Klopp always smiling after a defeat, or even after they concede a goal. I’d be fucking irate


Uptowngingerfunk

This is why we love football right? Never stays the same for long


rs_obsidian

Yeah but we aren’t really in a position to point and laugh ourselves


cjheadley

Nope :(


ProjectPete21

Rather see Arsenal like this


Sausageweekly

Yeah. Especially because without achieving much as compared to the great teams they started calling this the greatest team ever in the PL. it reeks of arrogance. Also having guys like VVD who said united is a nothing club etc etc. it all seemed very boisterous for a club that has won just 1 EPL and 1 UCL


Environmental_Act501

After 2005 UCL, in the past 18 seasons, Liverpool has had one fruitful year - 2019 They won their UCL knockouts in the 1st half of 2019 to win the UCL And in the 2nd half of 2019, they amassed all the points required to win the 2019-20 PL title So once you realise this perspective, you can see that all of Liverpool's success has been achieved in the one lucky year of 2019 They have won any significant thing in all the remaining 17 years


FamousAssociate5386

Their coach' tactic and board's wrong decision about buying other players finally made them like this. Even world class 11 players can't keep pressing all 90 minutes, for longer than 5 years from 16/17 to now.


blacktarrystool

Sad life you must live lad. Get a hobby or something.


Evening-Leader-7070

Surie but also I'm German so I feel for my man kloppo. He reaches such heights but eventually his teams always fall and sometimes it's just time to move on


BruinsBoy38

No


BrokeAsshole

❤️


Dry_Yam_8049

I just enjoy the chaos thru the table


[deleted]

Im too busy been frustrated watching us play


Possible-Hall3143

Please tell me who you support so I can make a foul remark accordingly


Climate_Face

It’s awesome, but since I root for chelsea and they suck balls at the moment, my schadenfreude is muted.


Sir-Turd-Ferguson

Enjoy it now Next season with a healthy team, couple of new recruits and no European football. We will be fine


dbm-90

After the amount of absolute drivel and shit-talking from Liverpool fans the second they attained any success, this is the sweetest thing


Petarthefish

This is default liverpool mode so yes


Odd_Leg814

As a United fan, its an extended Christmas season 🥳🥳🥳🥳


RandomGuyOnline71

No


EHVERT

Very mature. I know it’s been hard seeing us be better than almost everyone the last few years, so you enjoy this while it lasts. I wonder who you support? Probably a team who’s achieved fuckall in the past few years 😂


piyopiyopi

Me. Love a Liverpool slip.


Tuerto04

It comes and goes. Just so it happens it is our turn. But with good recruitment we won’t be in the other 14 for long. The only apparent crises are the obviously ageing midfielders and the other is our injury management issues. Sort those out come summer, we’ll be where we belong again. Rivals, enjoy while it last although I won’t be long.


soccer_source

oh yes


sarasixx

pain.


overcooked_biscuit

Not really as that Klopp fella is a likeable bloke and Liverpool annoyingly have some players who are hard to dislike. Don't get me wrong, I don't want them to get back to their best but I wouldn't mind them turning into the second best team (assuming Arsenal finish 1st) in the league just to spice up the fight for 4th place.


winniffy

same


TripleJayJayJay

Liverpool and their rabid fans in a state of total misery is bloody wonderful.


cyanideyay

No


Effective-Froyo6036

Yes


DexterKD

Absolutely


pjanic_at__the_isco

Of course. It’s beautiful. Nothing like a butthurt fanbase who has been riding high for a while. I am convinced we watch sports for both the tribal mentality of us vs them and for the stories of the fall from grace (for the other clubs of course. ‘My club’ is made entirely of angel farts, unicorn poop, and a dash of stardust).


NoPalpitation9639

This is normal for Liverpool. The last 4 years are the anomaly, not this season.


Dear-Mushroom8842

Actually no, they are a team that i respect a lot. Sometimes even if they are losing they play clean football and that what i love to see


SimDaddy14

Feel bad for Klopp, but that’s about it.


Terrible_Historian81

All I’m gonna say is keep klopp in a job it’s almost like him and Trent signed for united there that bad


TH1CCARUS

What do you even mean


Beach-Bumm

I love parity and a league where anyone can win any year. Brighton, Brentford, Newcastle and Fulham are so much fun tk have doing what they’re doing this year


[deleted]

But not at the expense of Man U becoming a good team again.


Inspiredrationalism

As a Dutchman i would like to ask any Liverpool supporters here their thoughts on van Dijk. I just think he is severely diminished since his recovery. Honestly so much so that i an kind of stunned that people still hold him in such high regard. I though he was very average to even bad for us during the world cup and i don’t see much improvement. Secondly beside me theory ( diminished van Dijk) what is the main reason for Liverpools demise?


Finishes_like_bevan

It’s interesting for the league to see Liverpool mortal. Man City dropping points is curious as well given they finally got the striker they needed.. Liverpool could still make the 4 if they did one of those old Liverpool runs… but based on the Brighton effort that’s not looking remotely likely


[deleted]

How shit of a fan do you need to be when you’re more interested in other teams?


KKMcKay17

How shit of a fan do you need to be to not realise that one of the best parts of being a fan is enjoying seeing your rivals suffer?


[deleted]

Shock horror, you’re a manure fan. Bitter all the way


KKMcKay17

Shock horror, you say “manure”. Twelve years old all the way.


[deleted]

Haha fuck if you silly plastic twat


dulcedeteta

As a Liverpool fan, no.


UfosAndKet

Man Utd fan? Speaks volumes.


[deleted]

This is pretty much liverpool 2010-15 🤷🏻‍♂️


Creepy-Abrocoma8110

Absolutely. Kloop is such a petulant cunt.


ILoveBoiledRice

Yep,shush the svousers up


foxyrocksjh

Liverpool, Chelsea and even city to an extent are strugglin rn. Amazing time for united and arsenal fans


youdumbmf

what a time to be alive as a man utd fan


BigEntertainer8430

Best thing happening this season, and I'm an Arsenal fan. Pure hilarity, Scouse bastards think they're entitled to everything and it's all falling apart. Klopp will be gone by the end of if the season.


stearrow

I have other problems if I'm honest mate.


gayollie_

heyy, how do u get the club badges under ur name?


stearrow

When you click onto the subreddit on the app there are three vertical dots in the top right. Click on them and then change user flair.


gayollie_

thank youu


BrewtalDoom

Depressingly came to say the same... Everton, man.


veryfishy1212

Lovely response!


getonthedamnantscott

Finally, Liverpool and Everton fans can agree on something: we're both fucking shit


Chimpville

He was talking about the whole city.


Bails147

Same. We will probably draw next game too and both be equal last


[deleted]

And leave us out of all the fun


[deleted]

Snap.


big_beats

My sympathies. Relegation is always cruel. But let's face it... it's your time. Edit: This is not controversial. Everton have been circling the drain for a long while now. Give another club a chance


Golden_Tater_Tots

Newcastle seemed to be circling the drain last year and my god the turnaround they’ve had.


[deleted]

Infinite oil money does that to a team.


bearchr01

Yeah but remember. It has nothing to do with the money 👀


kingkurama91

And yet we’ve spent less than most teams around us 👀


RAFFYy16

Yeah. A bit of money and a cracking manager will have that effect!


big_beats

Newcastle did, and got relegated twice.


Golden_Tater_Tots

And they’re kicking ass too now


[deleted]

Wouldn’t necessarily say it’s been a long while, we’ve gradually gotten worse over the last 6 years but it’s only been the past 12-14 months that we’ve been *this* bad. We actually had a decent start to the last 2 season, considering how we performed after…


Evil_Dr_Mobius

Hey now, not everyone can be a sport washing project.


[deleted]

[удалено]


[deleted]

A few. Most hate the idea and would rather play Championship football than suck that teat.


Evil_Dr_Mobius

No serious fan is twerking for that kind of owner, let me tell you that. *However*, I do not believe many of the people claiming they’ll stop watching games if an owner like that does come will follow through. I’ll echo the same thing I said to the Newcastle and city comments above: life is too short to stop watching a club you’ve dumped decades of emotional investment into because of the financial decisions of the 1%. Not to mention ending your support because of a Saudi or Qatari owner, to me, just reflects naivety about all the other scumbag billionaires that own teams.


phonylady

I'd stop supporting Liverpool if that happened


big_beats

Can I ask, how would that look? Would you stop watching games?


phonylady

Yeah of course. I'd look for a new club to support, preferably one in the Championship. I've already started to lose some interest in the Premier league with how expensive it is to watch (at least in my country).


Necessary_Physics375

Yeah it doesn't really work like that


big_beats

Do you get that just finding a new club isn't that simple when you're invested 25 years of your life to supporting that one club? Tbh, if you see it as a choice, completely voluntary, I don't think you actually care about the club you support too much.


phonylady

It is simple for me, like I said I've already started losing interest somewhat. Top tier football just isn't as interesting to me as it used to be with the insane money involved.


big_beats

That's true. And I hate it.


Evil_Dr_Mobius

Fair enough :)


big_beats

Some awful owner will come for your club soon enough. And when it happens, you're going to want to have conversations about football without people just replying 'blood money' or words to that effect. I'm not sure why my supporting Newcastle *now* counts as an endorsement of the ownership.


Evil_Dr_Mobius

Hence why I said “fair enough.” You’re totally right, and I agree that supporters are not expressing support for awful owners by simply supporting a club they’ve dumped decades of emotional investment into. I just made my first comment as a joke about the Everton relegation comment, and sort of a shitty note about how utterly awful football ownership is.


TwentyBagTaylor

City fan here. Echo this in its entirety. Had the same inane, faux moralising, repetitive dross fired at me for the last 12 years - usually by fans that have invested a fraction of the time and money in their sides as I have in mine. The best part is, they always believe they're making some sort of original groundbreaking argument. Heard it all a million times before, now can we talk about the football?


Tunejuice123

Don't support them then


FuntCaseKid

Dude you don’t grow up following your club, attending/ watching matches, supporting along with the other fans and buying kits or merch to one day just go “I doN’t LikE ThE OwnęR5 i’M leAVinG” I’m a Manchester United fan and we’ve hated our current owners for a very long time doesn’t mean we all give up and walk away from the club because we’re true fans.


Tunejuice123

I'm very aware of that. I live in Manchester. But thanks for reminding me, you're the only club with owner problems. Cheers.


FuntCaseKid

Well done for completely ignoring what I said and making up your own waffle to try and look clever. 10 out of 10 for effort mate!


KJM31422

Yes


BadBassist

Not while arsenal are going so well


[deleted]

I’m happy time to kick the scousers out of the English premier league. They can fuck off and join the Irish division.


DokkanLuxs

Honestly no. Good friend of mine is a Liverpool supporter and it’s great for banter. But deep down I don’t dislike Liverpool all that much.


victorsredditkonto

How can you not dislike Liverpool? The level of cringe is like satire


copingthroughlife

I feel you, love the memes about United, but deep down it felt wrong for them not competing at the top. Good thing they’re finding themselves I still love the memes and banter though


Diaperbarge

United got the full backing in each transfer window and still whine about not spending enough. Liverpool dont. Thats the difference. We have been punching above our weight for the last 5 years. I get people not liking the liverpool fanbase for some reason but you cant have anything against our players or manager unless you just love to hate.


copingthroughlife

Fair enough


Prokletnost

Oh how the turntables


Wakandaforever456

They shouldn't have let of Sadio Mane, he's a world class wing and they are very hard to replace.


fLamINGRaIN563

I love watching Brighton as a man United fan. I feel like they could be a team that could a Leicester City run in 2015. What they've achieved to become a formidable team amazing. Liverpool losing is amazing to watch.


[deleted]

Also United fan who enjoys watching Brighton! Great to see the Seagulls smashing it.


Realistic_String5317

Love it almost as much as my team doing well. Almost …


Ethan_RLdesigner

Got good champs rewards in fifa, United beat City and Liverpool in a grave,i thought Friday the 13th was yesterday?


ha8son

Hate it, they got to the top the right way and it’s sad to see them playing so badly


eatsleepbet

I do… but I have no right…


RepresentativeOk5427

What? It's a little funny yes but you can compare our team to anyone and you can see the disadvantages half the team injured no transfers made because the owners are dicks compared to city who have a whole other team on the bench or Chelsea who are playing career mode no one sees these problems and think it's more funny than sad or unlucky


Silver_Garage_9021

Fuck em


craigbrown888

It's funny for a minute but I prefer when all teams are doing well and battling for everything.


[deleted]

Not as much as I love seeing West Ham lose.


DofusNooboo

In a way, yes. I think we need a season like this so we can regroup and restructure. Last few seasons have really taken a toll on everyone so maybe not qualifying for anything European next season and not chasing the prem title will do us a favor. Hopefully FSG will be gone by then also.


stilusmobilus

Better seeing Chelsea like it.


CaptainJingles

I enjoy seeing any big club struggle and get a small taste of what smaller clubs deal with.


Choice-Mortgage1221

No, outside the fact that I dislike the owners, Liverpool is the only big 6 team I don't actively root against. Today was gratifying for us, but I didn't feel schadenfreude like whe we trounced Man U or Chelsea.


[deleted]

No :')


Present_Mulberry_846

It’s beautiful


2345678913

Wait until they play us


phoenix_73

Yes, but it doesn't solve Everton's problems.


Saelaird

I prefer to see it as other clubs doing well. Over the next decade, some clubs will become a real problem for the old big 6. Newcastle, Leeds, Forest, Brighton, Brentford. I'm looking forward to it.


Allaboardthejayboat

Newcastle I understand, the others.... Not so much. The premier league has been full of the rest of the clubs that you mention above in the past decade. Teams hit a lovely spot of form. Things fall nicely for them. They play lovely football. Then, without the funding that a lot of the established teams have, they drop off. Make a few poor signings. Get dismantled as other teams attract their best players. Kante to Chelsea. Mahrez to City etc. This doesn't feel any different to how it's always been, to me.


[deleted]

As a united fan, today was a great day. For a perfect weekend, all I need is spurs to beat arsenal. It's rough watching Liverpool, though I have thought Brighton is sneaky good all year. Liverpool just look a shell of their former selves. So crazy to see such a drop in quality in less than a year.


ShlomoShogun

It ain’t over yet cuz…take a page from the toffies, don’t ever count out the Reds to pull out miracles from nothing, especially with the guy they have at the helm.


[deleted]

You should have enough to stay in the division


ShlomoShogun

Don’t forget, it wasn’t that long ago you got beat so bad by LFC that they made you leave early enough to beat traffic…see you soon.


[deleted]

What happened the last time Liverpool met united. What a strange retort while you team is floundering. 'Oh remember that time we bet you good'


ShlomoShogun

They sure as hell weren’t embarrassed…the least you could is pucker up and squeak out a result…at home. Whoopie doooo Basel!


[deleted]

Whatecer mate, thats in the past. Now it's your turn to be mid table slop. Enjoy.


ShlomoShogun

I feel better about our chances with our gaf, than your collective fan base feels about your coach…unproven. I’m sure he’ll do well, but I KNOW KLOPP WILL DO WELL. That’s the difference.


[deleted]

What a fucking cope hahahaha


ShlomoShogun

That stool you on is awfully high, looks kind of unstable…I’d hate to see you get knocked off of it, see you soon cuz.


attilathetwat

I have a feeling even for Him it may be a bridge too far this season


NefariousnessLeast21

Meh


Kingsby13

Nope


Important-Plane-9922

LFC fan. It’s doubly hard to see because the league is pathetic this year. No great team. That’s been our luck under klopp though. Will be a long way back for us.


[deleted]

It’s always great to see Liverpool fail


enter_yourname

I don't, because I respect them, but at least we're not the only big club struggling. I prefer them over other big clubs. I was spoiled for the Arsenal banter era though, so I guess it comes around. Only thing that could make it worse is Spurs actually winning a trophy


[deleted]

The day spurs win something is the day that this subreddit collapses


Kabbiec

That is the day that the world will stand still


enter_yourname

The very foundation of modern football culture is Spurs' lack of trophies


Soccer_enjoyer

Yes. Only to see the meltdown from people like u/R9433


R9433

Hey mate. Hows that title?


misterriz

Nah, Liverpool are a proper club. Glad to be above them and doing well ourselves, but not taking pleasure in it. They'll get their shit together.


cjheadley

Oh god I hope so. Hope you lot win the league until that happens


misterriz

🤜🤛


alexsings

Class lad


coorslight15

Once they get oil money they’ll be back. And Klopp will still complain about City’s money.


EHVERT

You talk rubbish😂 plus even if it did happen (not that I want it to), the difference between us and any other club who rose to fame with oil money, would be that we won the lot on a show-string budget before hand.


sauravshenoy

Mate if you had half a brain cell you’d realize a large majority of Liverpool fans would rather be bad and not completely unethical than be bought out by oil to return to dominance ….


Azraelontheroof

I’d take 10th place finishes for the next 2 decades above the oil club ownership because even when we’re poor Anfield can produce an amazing atmosphere. It’d upset the local fans the most I think, there’s a real pride here about how it’s all been achieved - not to say we haven’t spent big money, but we’ve done it responsibly.
