I’ve showed up an hour early to watch this thinking it kicked off at 1 for some reason. Shouldn’t have bothered, Sky seem to just want to talk about Klopp.

Yep, Klopps Legacy, three hours before their game and just before ours. They're such twats.

Sky will be cutting away from the Villa match to show Liverpools players arriving.

Interesting that the video has Zaniolo arriving but didn’t make the subs bench.
He picked up a yellow on the way to the changing room so Unai couldn't risk it.

The string quartet playing YNWA - if I hadn’t just seen it I would assume someone was exaggerating.

Sky just put up  graphic of the "big 6" which they included spurs who have spent £570m and won nothing. Chelsea and redfilth net spend of £1billion.........

And plastic manc fans moan about city's spend.

As for coverage it's obvious they really don't want to include us in the love in

Could only be more crass if they asked Nigel Kennedy to play it.

I'm not his biggest fan but I really wish Olsen could be given a bit of a break from the negativity.

Agreed 100%, it is really fucking me off.

His biggest problem, he is not Emi. But who is?

Give the man a break.

We still have enough to win this. 1-2 the boys in C&B.

100% agree

He was in goal in 22-23 when we won away at Spurs.

I’m curious about Gauchi - from what I’ve seen, he looks like an Emi Mk2

The whining about olsen when emi is injured is beyond tedius at this point
