Typical Fan rant

Not sure if this has been on here, but it's funny anyway.
An up and down season described by a fan who sees only black and white. Be great if he followed a lower League team.

Real Liverpool

(and I like Liverpool)

[Jackson Lamb]

Shambles of a team this year. Problem is, they don’t invest like their rivals and have not invested enough since winning the league. 
 

Another 30 years

Unfortunately there seem to be a lot more of that type than there should be,I would say he'll grow out of it but as the pages on here testify,that's not the case for quite a few. Remember, things are never quite as good or as bad as you think they are.

All clubs have them

Football makes morons of us all, well, most of us.

All clubs go through a bad season. Man City did a few seasons back, United have had plenty.

The efforts Liverpool put in over the last couple of years to try and beat Man City to the league title and especially last season in playing literally every match possible, including losing the CL final,it’s not really a surprise that they aren’t on it this season.

For the style of football they play with a high line and aggressive press if you aren’t bang on it you’ll get picked off.

They also need a player overhaul, especially in midfield.

Heard on the Guardian podcast today that Liverpool's squad is in a similar shape as ours. Standards are obviously higher but in terms of age spread they've basically got players in their early twenties and early thirties, but very few in those prime years of 26 - 29.

Checking on Transfermarkt shows this to be a little bit of a lie, and they're not as bereft of those players as we are, but it might well be an issue for them.

Essentially they have:

Age 26 - Tsimikas, Jota, Melo, and Diaz - two are injured and two aren't first team regulars;

Age 27 - Keita; 

Age 28 - Robertson; and

Age 29 - Oxlade-Chamberlain, and Fabinho.

The bulk of their first team, and all of their spine of Salah, Henderson, van Dijk and Alisson are 30 or over. Of those players aged 26 - 29, only Robertson and Fabinho have played more than 1,000 minutes this season.

It's an issue that we have as well. We have only four (4) players in this age bracket. Williams and O'Leary are 26, and Bentley and Kalas are 29. Given two of those are goalkeepers we can, even with everyone fit, only ever field 3 players in their traditional prime years.

Now of course age isn't everything, we have players like Scott with over 5,000 first team league minutes at 19, or Vyner who is 25 but has over 15,000 minutes in the league. But they are exceptional. Most players will retire between the ages of 30 and 35 and with something around 30,000 - 40,000 minutes played at first team level (Martin has 39,000, James 30,000, King 27,000).

Some fans expect to win every game or sack everyone. Meltdowns can be seen every weekend up and down the country.

At our club alone we should have been on our 15th manager already this season, challenging for promotion to the Premier League and spending millions we don't have on players we can't afford.

We also live in an age where fair, balanced views don’t get the same interactions and response as shock, anger and outrage

See a load of the same fans about now, overreact when they win and overreact for they lose. Embarrassing what you do for views and attention
