    Has Gordon been creating a universe? Score app saying Gordon booked for simulation.

    Didn't really care who went down before this game. But I hope it's Everton.

    Richarlison has the type of ego that good teams don't want in their players. Everton should get rid.

    1. Mr. O'Connell

      Won't be able to afford his salary in the championship anyway

      He’s consistently been our best and most important player since he’s been here.

      I know all away fans hate him, like.

      Great player, great attitude.

      1. nolard
        • 9 Years

        yeah, that rolling around stuff is boss

      2. Philosopher's Stones
        • 3 Years
        2 years, 6 days ago

        Yeah, it's just something about him that gives a bad ego vibe, which I don't think is the case.

      That explains why United were rumoured to be after him...

    And the one thing to notice is that not one of his team mates went to see if Richarlison was ok. Cos they know he's play acting.

    1. @persecuted_by_mods
        2 years, 6 days ago

        But he wasn't? They showed the replay and he did get his foot caught in the ground and twisted

    2. panda07

      Frank Lampard to be the next Atletico manager

    4. ⭐ Bemba_Da ⭐
      • 13 Years

      Richarlison to keep the Neymar legacy going

      1. Third Eye Vision
        • 11 Years
        2 years, 6 days ago

        Is doesn’t matter that he was actually fouled, does it?

        1. Mr. O'Connell
          • 11 Years
          2 years, 6 days ago

          Doesn't fit the narrative, no.

        2. @persecuted_by_mods
            2 years, 6 days ago

            He wasn't but it was a bad twist tbf

        Milner required 2nd half. They'll get a pen if he comes on.

        Come out from behind the sofa on Salah owners/cappers. Not seeing much here to fear today. Typical as I stuck the armband in him.

        Everton look to have parked 3 double deckers on the goal line for the foreseeable.

        1. @persecuted_by_mods
            2 years, 6 days ago

            He's Finnish, one performance against the worst team in the league doesn't change months of bad form

              Everton fighting like dogs and yet Man United surrendered from the first minute the other day.

                Everton are not really fighting. They're just simulating.

              I couldn’t have got the GW more wrong

              1. Piggs Boson
                • 12 Years
                2 years, 6 days ago

                Same.

                Still no pts. Maybe my worst ever GW.

                1. Scots Gooner
                  • Fantasy Football Scout Member
                  • 7 Years
                  2 years, 6 days ago

                  Spunked my FH this week and still 10 points behind my regular team. Fallen behind ML rival too.

                  Will go down as my worst ever week. I’ll be ultra cautious with any chip after this.

                  1. Piggs Boson
                    • 12 Years
                    2 years, 6 days ago

                    Sounds rough.

                    FH is difficult to nail. So much variance in a single GW.

                    It's why I like using them in big blanks. At the very least, I know I'm gaining appearance points and carrying the best players to other side. Anything else is a bonus.

                  Literally, maybe if they were Everton manager they'd go toe to toe with Liverpool and attack

                  Seems like the need for a point for Everton is more than all 3 for Liverpool.

                Souness and carragher should not be on tv during a Liverpool match

                Souness just said Everton better not get this crowd wound up or it’s going to become a hot house and then it’s over for them 😆

                Everton is fighting for their life and plus we're talking about a club - Liverpool - that every single toffee hates with passion. Absolutely 100% legitimate strategy. Suck up and find a way Klopp.

                I've taken a risk this week in a bid to catch up. Mendy captain
                Instead of Salah and I brought Jesus in for Richarlison 10 minutes before the deadline. Currently on 70 points which is going to pretty much seal me a motm in my works league. Now I've posted this Salah will get a 2nd half hattrick!!

                  Lot much ceiling with Mendy though, how much you chasing?

                    It's more hanging on to 3rd place by 50 points but I'm about 70 behind first .

                Liverpool fans complaining about Everton here when Mané is still on the pitch (again). Oh, the nerve!
