  1. Nonsense, you're Anglo eyes can't biscern the German alphadet.
  2. I agree to these terms only if I am named club captain of Jebbedloh II and given the number ten jersey.
  3. Serious answers only and not teams that I could play for after having a three litres of beer and ten sausages.
  4. First german to quote my post decides my german team
  5. The intensity was also his hallmark at Dortmund as well, you’re right I’ve only watched the bigger games and maybe by coincidence they play a higher intensity. IIRC Dortmund had injury issues with Kehl, Bender, Subotic, Reus, Schmelzer, and Hummels. Someone like @Tommy would have better recall. Also let me clarify what I meant by ‘one injury leading to disarray’. Obviously it is an overstatement but how CBs do Liverpool have? Three, right? Take out van Dijk and you have two forcing Fabinho to cover defence in a pinch, which weakens the midfield. Another injury and it’s a risky game on the razor’s edge. That is what I meant by disarray, it isn’t ideal and puts stress on other parts of the squad. I didn’t mean the team is shit all of a sudden losing 5-0 to everyone
  6. Fair enough. The wheels fell off at Dortmund in a very similar way to the injuries piling up at Liverpool. Granted Dortmund were selling players but they were plagues by injury.
  7. ‘Complete shite’ and ‘absolute bollocks’, yet ignore more than half the points I made and focus on a pedantic number. Yeah I am done with this thread, enjoy the car crash.
  8. And they’d all beta you at cricket as well
  9. Oh come off it, what exactly have I said wrong? What do you disagree that I said that Liverpool has one of the best cores in the world? Do you disagree that the depth isn't great? Do you disagree that Klopp has a demanding style? Or is this another 'you're not a Liverpool fan so you're opinion goes into the bin' scenario? It's so tiring and it's always the same song and dance. I'm 100% impartial to Liverpool and I like discussing them because there are a lot of fans on here, and it's interesting to discuss; well it is till the someone chirps in with comments like that.
  10. I think it's more that they have a paper thin squad and their recruiting has been mediocre ever since the spent that fortune on van Dijk, Keita, Alisson and Thiago. One injury and their team is in disarray and what Klopp expects from his player lends itself to higher chance of injury. The core is fantastic - one of the best in the world, but once one of their superstars falls out of form or is injured they fall apart.

    Just got an emial for an interview for a position I can't remember.
  12. Apparently Chelsea earn the eighth most revenue in football. Makes you wonder how much cash input is needed from Abramovic these days
  13. Liverpool could have had a dynasty, but they blew it, but not entirely their fault. Can’t see them recapturing that lighting in a bottle. I am still convinced ‘Klopp burnout‘ is a real thing, burning a candle at both ends.
  14. Is this how you talk to your students?
  15. dare i say it? based and red pilled i was in a graduating class of 3 - fucken smashed them on the op exam
  16. You say that like I'm a local to the Illawarra area. Break it down it for me, I assume she went to the private and nice school and you're bogan scum?
  17. @Devil-Dick Willie did you go to school with Emma McKeon? She is about our age

    Just saw an interview with Christian Vieri in English and he simultaneously sounds like an Italian trying to do an Australian accent and an Australian trying to do an Italian accent. He sounds very strange.
  20. Here is an idea, fucking controversial one as well; how about don't abuse people regardless of racist or not? Fucken 'ell
  21. How are they still over the salary cap with Messi not being signed right now? I don't believe for a second that Lionel Messi makes the club more money than they pay him. How is this possible? Do they have 100% image rights of him? Otherwise wouldn't he be earning the commercial revenue generated from his image? If Lionel Messi is sponsored by Adidas how do Barcelona make money from that? How does Barcelona make money from him being in Lays commercials?
  22. And calling someone 'negrito' is friendly in some South-American cultures. People are different and we can't police it to the same ideals all the time. And on the subject of the persian holiday, does it really matter? How many black people are in Persia, and how many are being offended by it? It's like a tree falling in the woods with no one around.
  23. The way I think of it in the context of France is that he obviously has a bunch of black friends and if none of them called him out on it before he posted the pic, it must have a different reception in the culture. But I'm not French so I wouldn't know, I just know that people see things differently in different cultures so you can't just frame everything with the same context. Americans lose their shit over the word 'cunt' but Australians don't is one example.
  24. It doesn't make it okay but I'm not sure if it has the same connotations in France. It doesn't really in Australia and I didn't know it was a racist thing for a long time.
