      No chance. With Hendo gone and a patched defense we won't go nowhere. This is just a rotten season, but we can't b*tch about it because beating Barca 4-0 did empty our can of luck for years. Let's just hope for 2021/2022.

      p.s. Of course we should try hard in this year's CL, you never know.

      Wasn't lucky you tit we scored more goals than them and won a match. By the time we had finished with them they were begging to go home.

      Redcaf missing a lunatic I think.

      The rest of your post though is sadly true. We are fu**ed.

      You were in disbelief that Klopp played a fit Jota in a CL dead rubber match because he got injured, but you're fine and dandy with Virgil playing in an intense international tournament when he is barely match fit after a season out injured.

      That doesn't strike you as odd?

      That may not be a bad thing, get him some minutes on the pitch ready for next season.

      That's the F***ing spirit la!!

      You comes across as either the biggest gobs***e blue or manc on a F***ing wind up. If not you need to get a F***ing a grip, cos you sound like an absolute shithouse.

      If you think we were lucky in 2019, I'd hate to know what you think of our run in 2005.

      He will play for us this season and he will play for Holland in the Summer, hope he's strong enough to do it.

      We need him so much.

      We lost 7-2 to Villa with him. We also started struggling after the Covid break with him at helm. I don't know. Someone at LFC rather looks very closely if this is about injuries to main guys or some basic problem in the team as a whole. I think our dry spell is due to injuries, but there's also a danger to overlook the real problems because injuries give you a cheap way of explanation.

      Not likely  back in team training until preseason 21-22, Klopp says. Same fkr Gomez and Matip.

      No way should he or Joe be rushed back fkr Euros. Would be criminal.

      No, not really, it depends if the medical teams clear him or not and on Virgil himself. Put it this way I'd rather Virgil plays a few competitive matches before the start of the new season than not, I don't want him starting completely cold.

      The crucial thing is that he needs to be medically cleared to play matches and it needs to be a gentle reintroduction.

      Don't think they will be. Far too serious of injuries to rush them back.

      See VVD hasn’t even been included in the dutch subs.
      And rightly so ! Fingers crossed it stays that way.

      Wouldn't they need permission from LFC to include him in any capacity?

      They were never going to include him. He'll be there for fitness evaluation and tactical reasons should he make it in time for the Euros.

      Looks like we're converting him to a box-to-box midfielder

      Need to change his song lyrics

      Everyone always joins in if you shout "All together now" before anything. It's a sort of jedi mind trick.
