‘Trophies do not imply extra at Liverpool – their conceitedness is off the charts’
You in all probability caught Trent Alexander-Arnold’s “trophies mean more to Liverpool” remark final week, and actually what a load of nauseating tosh.
The thought of a Liverpudlian being each annoying and boastful isn’t precisely a shock, however have their delusions of grandeur ever been extra unbearable? (Yes, clearly. But anyway).
It’s the worst case of predominant character syndrome since Friends gave Joey that terrible spin-off. The Anfield membership are owned by an funding group value £20billion. They’ve damaged the world switch file for each a goalkeeper and a defender (and had been a Chelsea hijack away from doing the identical for a midfielder final summer time).

They’ve additionally been successful trophies for six a long time straight. But no. Their success ‘means more’ as a result of… the Kop and… “six times” and… Bruce Grobbelaar’s legs or one thing.

Sod off Tim Sherwood

Tim Sherwood annoys me on a mobile degree. The ex-Tottenham boss is as washed up as a rubber duck in a tsunami but he nonetheless runs his mouth like he’s cock of the stroll (emphasis on cock).
The truth he’s nonetheless harping on about ‘discovering’ Harry Kane suggests he’ll do something for consideration, and on Monday he took the phrase ‘look at me, I’m rad’ to egotistical new lows whereas interviewing Cole Palmer.
Like the drunk, racist uncle at a marriage, he cornered the Chelsea ace by inviting him to slag off his team-mates with an affordable line about him being surrounded by mediocrity (I suppose Timmy Boy’s an skilled on mediocrity). When Palmer refused to chunk, Sherwood blurted again: “You can’t say it, but I can.”
We get it, Tim. You’re edgy and also you ‘tell it like it is’. But all you actually are is a self-absorbed blowhard with as many mind cells as you will have wins as a supervisor. Kindly sod off, will you?
Contactless soccer sucks

Football is dissolving right into a contactless mush and I’m getting sick of it. It’s nice that the times of Ben Thatcher solely getting booked for elbowing Pedro Mendes into oblivion are over, however the sport is dropping a part of its soul – the tough and tumble.
Seeing Garnacho writhe in agony after getting his shin tapped by Tarkowski on the weekend made my blood boil. Players simply look forward to the slightest contact earlier than hitting the deck like an indignant blackjack seller, as a result of bodily contact is all that’s wanted these days.
Thankfully, officers noticed sense throughout the Doku-Mac Allister drama on the finish of Liverpool vs Man City (battle me, Scousers). Yes, boot met physique, however Klopp’s declare that his No. 10 “could have been killed” was as batsh*t as Bruce Wayne’s septic tank.
Remember when John Terry received volleyed within the head within the 2007 League Cup ultimate and everybody simply received on with it? Those had been the bloody days.
