"We come over here and I see fireworks. I don’t know if they do this every game, but I assume that it is because it’s Liverpool." If you don't know, maybe keep quiet.

Sutton says we'll win 2-1. I have a feeling he might be right on this one.

Yeah, it's because of that.  We only watched because it was Liverpool too.

Enzo Maresca was very complimentary to us in his press conference, never knew until recently he played for the Albion in the late 90s.

He's trying a bit of 'you've only come to see [our club]' schtick out. Whereas this works as a bit of tongue in cheek goading from the crowd, from a manager it feels a bit classless

Fat, bald opinionated twat. I'd hate to be like that...

Any squad news from Unai? The website have the headline comments but none are injury returns/concerns.

I appreciate him both looking and talking like an absolute bellend, it fits far more comfortably with my loathing of his club.

Amen
