Today's Football
Long, long time coming. A Man City colleague of mine said some years 'ago "You have to face the fact Liverpool are not in the top four anymore".

What a sad day for football.
there isnt a top4 anymore like there used to anyway, points per game average for manu, arsenal, chelsea been way off for most years now for when it was hard for any smaller clubs to break into.
its top 2 liverpool man city now, than long time nothing, would be a surprise not one of them won again next season

Best effort i've seen by far, we do need a fully energtic re-worked version though!

Big congrats to all the Pool fans on here. Quite a few (football-)knowledgable ones as well; now there's an oxymoron if I ever did see one 
My feelings on a few specifics aside, it's hard to think of a more worthy champion team in recent memory.
As an aside, Danish media is - again - running a story on Pool's Danish throw-in coach. In the usual small nation style of trying to make it just a tiny bit about us
I did find it interesting once they mentioned a few numbers, which just goes to show that the devil's in the details in modern football and that you dismiss stats at your peril. In 2017-18 Pool had a retained possession after a throw-in of just 45.4% of the time, which was 17th in the PL. When the throw-in coach arrived that number changed to 68.4% in 2018-19, which was not just tops in the PL, but second in all of Europe only behind a Danish team which the same coach worked with. With the number of throw-ins in a match, it's a great spot from Klopp as an area primed for real improvement, and it comes out to a fair few extra times you get the ball to Mane and Salah!

Just browsing the website between races and found this beauty:

One of the most pointless and random markets I've ever seen on Betfair and thats saying something
