    Somehow the Reds got it done.

    Im worried for Firmino tho, he can look anonymous at times.

    Also we hit our quota of 1 injury per game. lol

    Klopp is crazy if he doesnt buy something in January. At least give the young academy players more of a chance in league games.

    Damn what is going on in that Everton vs Stoke game? They're going back and forth with the score. I can't watch it right now, but I'm guessing there is no defense being played.

    It was pure offense, Lukaku and Shaqiri with 2 goals

    and in the end Stoke came back with a powerful shot by Joselu and a crunch time penalty by Arnautovic

    Last year I thought Everton was a bit foolish to splash the cash on Baby Drogba, but now he's really slicing it up.

    Another one Chelsea let walk.

    I'm so used to knowing Stoke as the ultimate park-the-bus team that it's weird to see them go on all-attack mode. How in the world did they get Shaqira when all the other top EPL teams were also interested in his signature?

    I had Lukaku on my fantasy team last year for well over half the season and breh didn't deliver schitte. Glad I have him now tho.

    Thinking about trading for Shaqira now.

    Mou is the embodiment of anti-football. Would be funny if he were to go to Bayern after Pep is gone.

    Ancelotti has already signed a 3-year deal with us.

    Not an exciting week in terms of FPL.

    I don't know how Benteke was able to score goals in previous games because he was this week's game really showed how much of a trash he is. In fact, the whole team was crap this week. I think tinman can vouch that MerGady had more heart than the 11 that were out on the pitch.

    My New Year wish list:

    1. Replace Mignolet with a proper keeper (Ter Stegen?).
    2. Replace Benteke and the whole striking unit with a proven striker, not a future potential.
    3. For the love of God please replace Lovren with a real defender to partner Sakho with.

    I don't know how much it'll cost in January, but could be close to 80 mil. Unfortunately, Klopp has repeatedly said that he's not looking to improve the squad in January and he's going to roll with the players he has. I hope his mind changes because we desperately need a splash. And the the hell is this Marko Grujic kid that he just signed?

    If this is it then we're destined for 7-10 spot by season's end.

    Lmao at tinman reference. Would be mildly surprised if he had any basic knowledge of soccer.

    He would not come here and be dominated by us. ;)

    Thank you, it was very good indeed. Looking for more, apart from that not a good game week scoringwise.

    Sunderland was probably the only team scoring 3 goals and that tells it all.:p

    Rafa and Jose are like revolving doors constantly moving from club to club.
