Count me amongst those that don't want it to continue. It was a wonderful tribute last season but its time to stop it.
Stans OK. Enough already.
Hear, hear.

Yep.

Why are people so opinionated on this ? It will fizzle out naturally as and when it needs to.

Because it's a forum for opinions.

Fair enough. But if people want to continue you should respect that too. I'm still undecided on whether it should continue personally.

How is disagreeing with those who want the 19th minute thing seen as disrespectful?

Jack really is crap. He doesn't know that Gardner is on the bench or that Bennett is injured.

Woodward just raised an interesting point.

Where is Joe Bennett? Wasnt on the bench for the last friendly, is he today? Is he injured?

It's in danger of becoming a bit... well, Liverpool. Anyway, I've said my piece. Folk can do what they like.

See above, he's injured. Just started running.

Great run by Tonev but we do get exposed quite easily down the flanks. A better team would punish us more

I really like the look of tony moon going forwards. Not found him convincing defensively though.

I think Matt Lowton is one of my favourite players though

Woodward is fucking hopeless. The last game I watched on mute after 15 minutes, I couldn't take any more of his inane drivel

Seems a bit Scouse now in my opinion. Not trying to offend anyone but that's where I stand on the issue.

Gabby seems to be playing much deeper in this game.

Yes. If we play 433 the midfield gives the full backs so much more protection. I know lambert likes attacking full backs but there's a good case for playing more defensively minded ones if we're gonna play 4231. Man U away is a great example

Off the line, thought Benteke had scored again there.
