I have no enemies on here John, and I certainly do not look to make them.

CHAPELALLMAN wrote: Sat Dec 19, 2020 1:26 pm So to get this clear, you made reference to some posters 'making blatant all out attacks on players ' but you recently started a thread entitled ' seems we have a petulant child on our hands. which is a reference to Costa. You then went on to say ; Not good ignoring your team when you are in a slump...Seems he needs to grow up and take some reponsibilty And this based on some possibly unfounded rumours doing the rounds at the time.

Those kind of comments remind me of when you recently accused 64 of ' bitching ' about something, when in fact he was just offering an opinion. It's called discussion and debate.

I might have opinions about whether a player is consistent in terms of performance ( Costa and Harrison ) but I have never used personal insults like that. And that's my issue with you, you can't distinguish between a fan's valid opinion ( which is subjective and open to debate ) about the value of players from a professional footballer perspective versus personal attacks. I know nothing about Jack Harrison or Helda Costa in terms of their life outside football - and frankly I don't care - but I am interested in their value as professional footballers each being paid £40,000 to £50,000 a week by the club in order to perform at a high level on the pitch so that we can win matches.

Anyway, Given that you have just said that Bielsa does not comment negatively about players to the media, where exactly did you get information about a falling out behind the scenes between Costa and Bielsa ? I think you are hoist by your own petard there....
Just ignore him Chapel...he's aimed a few snide remarks my way too because I don't rate Bamford, not worth bothering with him. I don't always agree with what you post but it's always well reasoned...

Quite possibly the most patronising comment I have seen on this forum.

Shouldn’t be too surprised as I’ve always hated them the most but that is unacceptable even from the worst of them :angry:
Plenty of Leeds fans did the aeroplane song for years at Elland Road. It works both ways.

30 years ago, I sang it myself to a couple of Man U fans in a pub. Not proud of it. Just saying. Both sides have their idiots

We have t go full tilt at Scum, no let up ...interesting that Chelski claimed to have out run us in that game ...seems we have out run everyone to date... the closest anyone got was the Deby game against the blades...Rodders...Raphina and Paddy need to cause havoc...with a little help from Jack :)

Thanks Faaip - good advice. :tup: I've tried to ignore him before but he gets a kick out of snide, rude remarks.

We could do without picking up any more injuries. Hopefully, Llorente will be back soon.
Agreed, and we need to avoid losing both KP and Klich for the same game should they both receive yellow cards tomorrow. Pablo might be able to stand in fine against Burnley/WBA for Klich, and similarly Struijk/Llorente for KP against those teams. My fear is we will end up losing them both for our game against Spurs in 4 games time.

Criticism of how a player did in a particular game is expected and I have no problem with this. But it gets ridiculous when fans are saying half our first 11 aren’t of Premier league standard (only when we lose of course). These same players - Dallas, Harrison, Alioski, Costa, Ayling, Cooper have all had MOTM performances (or near to it) this season. Of course not all would make Liverpool’s first 11, and are not all going to be at their best every game in their first season in the top flight. Only a handful of players can come into this league from a lower tier and dominate every game.

I in no way ment to offend anyone who is bipolar, i used the term merely to illustrate the mood swings that take place in a match day thread.

I apologise for any hurt caused and assure you it was not intentional or directed at anyone.
