Watched every game and they’ve looked solid, James has looked impressive, Calvert been immense, Allan before his injury looked like he’d been playing in this league his whole life... in fact most of their players are doing fine from what I’ve seen, they’ve looked better than 17/18 of the other teams so far and that’s all you can try to do, be better than the rest...so I can’t see where you’re coming from, it sounds like more of a biased view to be honest. You have to give people credit when it’s due and they’re playing well and will be in the top 6 by the years end, I have no doubt. And IMO good! It’ll be nice to see both Merseyside teams doing well, just as long as they are under us mind you.
Reading this post, I’m absolutely certain you haven’t watched their games in full. You’ve just watched highlights haven’t you? Or are you a blue?
James has done fairly well I agree. I think people are going a little over the top about him making out he’s Zidane when he’s just done well. Given 7-8 / 10 type performances against three weak teams and people are going nuts.
Calvert been immense? Has he? I know he’s bagged a few goals and as a striker that’s obviously his job, but you say he’s been ‘immense’? He’s no different to shane long, works hard but he’s a crab. He’s earned some luck by working hard and being in the right place at the right time so he’s managed to score a few goals but he’s a crab and far from ‘immense’.
Allan looks like he’s been playing in the prem his whole life?! His performances have been 6-7/10 and another player the EV are going over the top on. He’s just done ok
. Why are you making out he’s makelele?
I’ll tell you where I’m coming from. They’ve played four teams. Three of them will be in the bottom half this season And they were lucky to get wins against two of those teams. From those three teams, one of them will go down and another one may go down too but will certainly be involved in the relegation fight - they played both of them at home.
The only decent team they’ve played is spurs and it was first game of the season when they were miles off the pace, which happens. Look at city, they’re still off the pace now and were a couple of games in.
You’ve never been so sure they’ll finish top 6? See you in here in May. Think your post is going to age terribly but we’ll see.
