The same reason Leroy Sane was not even called up for backup winger and the coach will rather pick Brandt

airmark:


Raumdeuter is a disgrace to we Ogbomosho people. He is known for turning fact on its head.

Laporte ko, lapoor ni.



Ramdeuter's fact lie.

Belotti is the player with the fastest hattrick in Serie A's history.

Afolabi6046:
atleast Sane don play for Germany wella. Laporte has never played for a senior team, why?

raumdeuter:


Go and ask the French coach

Afolabi6046:
you dey mind am?
Because Liverpool made 2nd just once in the last 9yrs mean we should neglect the fact that they have just conceded 5 goals so far in the EPL, and they have played Arsenal and City, those games last season na like 8 goals dem suck

BlackManta:


Liverpool has gotten their best ever start to a PL season.

Liverpool have also conceded their least goals after 12 goals for the first time in over a decade, beating the defensive record they set in 1990.

And someone say VVD did not improve Liverpool

raumdeuter:


Thank you for showing that interception the key attribute of sensible defenders Laporte is leading VVD

Afolabi6046:
ManCity displaced who? when has Liverpool ever been a force to reckon with? Chelsea has won 5 EPLs since since Liverpool last won any English trophy. Do you know what you're saying. Klopp has successfully brought them back to a little bit of limelight they're enjoying now, when last dem comot EPL R16 before Klopp came. They are still unbeaten this season because they have Allison and VVD, simple

BlackManta:


You deliberately ignored the 3 major places VVD leads Laporte but focused on only interceptions.

The interceptions sef is very close.

LaPorte got 1.3 and VVD has 1.2.

Very close.

Meanwhile VVD dey give LaPorte serious gap for blocks and clearances.

He also leads LaPorte in tackles.

Of course you saw that but you deliberately pretend you no see am.

Eruditor:


Liverpool have gone neck to neck against United in 08/09 if I am not mistaken. Brendan Rodgers as well led that league for more weeks than City under Pellegrini but missed out after the CFC shocking 2-0 loss and 3-3 draw to Crystal Palace. Yes, Man City displaced LFC to win the title in Pellegrini's first season.

in the last 9yrs, Pool made 2 just once, they like 6,7,8 gan....that changed until Klopp came and Klopp sef only made 4 twice, how did City displace Liverpool again, as if they were winning EPL back to back

Eruditor:


Calma. English is not hard. Benitez was second and Brendan Rodgers finished second in the last 9 years. Benitez also played 2 UCL finals in the last 13 seasons before Klopp. Add Carling Cup and FA Cup to things Benitez won for LFC. Klopp? zero.

As for displacing Liverpool, City came from 3rd on the log with 5 games to spare to peep liverpool that were 1st at the time. The english word for it is called "displacement". City displaced Liverpool in that season. That was the bone of contention.

Unlimited22:
And yet John Terry is a horrible defender.

Afolabi6046:
The one with grammar issue is actually you and the guy....now lemme be explicit


Benitez was 2nd ten years ago, after that Pool came i think 7th and 8th before City won the league. How can you displace someone that wasn't even contending for the trophy. Since then Liverpool never smelled top four again till Klopp's second season. They have never been a force, the real ones are United, Chelsea and City. Do you understand now. Liverpool is sitting 2nd again since 2009 but with 5 goals conceded so far because they now have Klopp, VVD and Allison. Now that's the "bone of contention"

BlueRayDick:


Why are u changing goal post now? Your initial post made it sound like Liverpool are only second at this stage because VVD joined them and made them tick, whereas Liverpool spent most of the season on the top spot during Suarez's last season under Brendan Roger's when Suarez was blazing hot before Man city displaced them eventually.

This is what he posted at you and in return, you replied something that was off tangent.

Now read what he said, juxtapose it with what I said and confirm that you have been talking rubbish since.

Afolabi6046:
You're calling me a dullard because i'm trying to explain to the guy why Liverpool have improved under Klopp with VVD? Cool enough

My response to what you quoted again was that you can't say City just displace someone that was 7th or 6th the season before. He's making it sound like what Liverpool is doing now is not new, which is not true.

Eruditor:


I mean, you were just told, that Brendan Rodgers was actually LEADING the league by match day 33 35 and fumbled 2 huge results in the last 3 that caused his team to slip allowing City to displace them to the title.

It is not by force to retract an error. You can just form unlooking like some of your principals on this thread are known for.

Afolabi6046:
If you open your eyes well, you would notice i actually said Liverpool made 2nd nine in the 09/10 season, what error are you talking about again?

Eruditor:


I did not call you a dullard.

He told you the season he was referring to: Suarez' last season and he made that post to refute your point that LFC being 2nd was due to VVD. In fact, at some point last season, LFC were second to City even without VVD. That was his argument.

Eruditor:


They were also second in 2013-14 under Brendan Rodgers. Bluray said so and he was right.

Afolabi6046:
I've referenced that season in everything i've said so far.


but that was many years ago, Liverpool has since turned to a team that consistently finish outside the top 4. Klopp changed that. Liverpool is known as a team that consistently concede and fumble against small teams. Now that has changed. Ask yourself why?

At this time last season and 2009, were they unbeaten? Why?

Liverpool is the same thing that conceded about 6 goals against Arsenal last season and 8 against City. Bournemouth don score 4 against Liverpool before.


I'm not a dullard and i actually watch football with my eyes, Liverpool went like 3 or 4 games without conceding a goal this season. Why?

Afolabi6046:
2008/2009 and 2013/2014, those were the two seasons they were second. Liverpool was mostly 6,7,8. Something has changed.

Eruditor:


You are all over the place and your argument is incoherent. First accept you were wrong, Liverpool have been 2nd as recently as 4 years ago so there is nothing special in being second again this same season. That is the first thing.

To ask again if they were unbeaten by this time last season still makes no sense because at this time last season they did not lose to Redstar Belgrade abi?

So you don't select one isolated point in history to make any case for improvement especially when you want to limit it to one person. Another person can make an argument for Allison and it may even make more sense. Until then, they are not having a better season than Brendan or Benitez had. 2nd place is 2nd place.
