He's talking shit - even Neville kept on saying the atmosphere was dead / weird, and he's employed to talk up the Premier League.
Was Cross sat next to the away fans and confused the noise they made with those of gooners? Such an odd, demonstrably wrong piece of commentary by him*.
*unless there was an added note that he only meant between minutes 39 and 41.
Just pop this here

Big up Jenas - he might well call the correct Top 4, albeit in the wrong order.

And bless Chris Waddle.
 
Media bias is apparent.

The love-in for Klopp and Guardiola in particular is pathetic but they also get a bit more pressure when things go wrong.

Over the last two seasons we have beem the best team in my less than objective opinion!

The pundits should be talking of that one 'find' player of quality that I feel would elevate us to the summit. Everything else is there right now.

But if the bias wants to persist the best way to deal with it is to keep defying the odds.
I think they're annoyed at our improvement in the last couple of years, and hope that if they just stay still and ignore us that we'll go away like a T-Rex.

FUCK THAT, BITCHES

Odd that Lauro predicts Lollerpool to be "5th or 6th" and yet a glance at his cumulative weekly predictions tells a different tale:

+/- DENOTE POSITION DIFFERENCE BETWEEN LAWRO'S TABLE AND ACTUAL POSITION
POS
TEAM P W D L PTS +/-

1 Liverpool 30 21 9 0 72 +2
2 Chelsea 29 21 4 4 67 -1
3 Man City 29 20 7 2 67 +1
4 Man Utd 28 19 8 1 65 +1
5 Woolwich 28 18 8 2 62 +1
6 Leicester 29 18 6 5 60 +7
7 Some other team........ -5

At least you can say Lawro's consistent :pochshock:
 
What we've achieved so far with our injuries is nothing short of miraculous, we've accumulated the most points in 2017. In December we were 13 points behind that's almost cut by half. Chelsea scraped past WBA and were lucky to beat Stoke, let them bleat on about without Kane we're fucked the numbers show different. If any of the other bottlers can pull their finger out it'll be nip and tuck come the last knockings. Conte has form letting a lead slip, one more Chelsea defeat and the pressure may just be too much for them. Bring it.
 
To be fair... most would have had ArseAnal in their Top 4... main;y because no-one really remembers a time when they weren't!!
The Man City/Man Utd love-in is obvious... most of the media have secret man-crushes on either Pep or Jose... probably both...
...and the Liverpool love is purely Klopp-related! Those who won't admit to a secret semi for Pep/Jose, will go down the hipster route of going for Klopp...

They're supporting the MANAGERS, not the team in question! IMHO!
I was going to post similar. At the start of the season, never mind the pundits, most of US were thinking it was going to be tough this season because of Pep/Conte/Mourinho all taking new roles.

Before the season started it was all Pep v Jose with Klopp a close 2nd and Conte ahead of the chasing pack, that narrative died eons ago they just can't bring themselves to acknowledge us, fuckem anyway
 

Looks like he's finally let his guard slip, and admitted it... (even though he had to hide behind the age-old technique of pretending like it was someone else who said it first!)
"If you listen to Guardiola, he said the other day that to finish in the top four in England is a trophy because it is so difficult," he added.

to finish in the top four in England is a trophy
to finish in the top four to ArseAnal is a trophy
to finish in the top four is a trophy
top four is a trophy
