If Liverpool can't win the title with Klopp, then they never will.

You think they should be above Man City?

No, Manchester City are by far and away the best team in the league. But Klopp is Liverpool's best chance at it, barring some insane financial takeover.

When you're at the bottom of the table it's a given that things are just conspiring against you.  Wilfried Bony off injured after getting injured after 47 seconds.

You just knew Allardyce would turn it around at Everton

Aye, and he will get a bit of cash in Jan too.

Fun fact.  Kieron Gibbs has appeared 15 times for smethwick this season and has yet to win a game.

Soon to be 16, he’s my favourite Albion player. Although I thought he still played for Arsenal.

Not sure how anyone can have a favourite Albion player. Even Barry while he’s playing for that mob.

If he plays every game for them and keeps up that record then I'm sure he'll be everybody's favourite Albion player. I've never been able to dislike Gareth Barry.

Winds me up when commentators refer to ‘City’ assuming we’ll accept they mean the Manchester variety despite the opposition being a City too. So there.

Agreed. Unprofessional, over-familiar nonsense which is disrespectful to the opposition. Same when they do it when Man U are playing another United.

Baker doing quite well against a front trio of Zlatan, Martial and Rashford currently.

Superb performance by Bristol City so far, we'd have lost this 4 or 5 nil.

Fair play to them. Meanwhile we can't beat anyone above 8th in the Championship.
