I think even without VVD most wouldn’t of expected Liverpool to be where they are at this stage. I would of still expected both fullbacks to be the best by some distance, but think Cancelo and Shaw have probably had better seasons. Further up that ruthless streak in Salah and Mane just hadn’t been there, probably would of put 7 past Leipzig last season given the number of good chances created a few days ago.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Liverpool were still top without VVD, eleven games after his injury, when he got injured in the fifth league game. It was when all the other injuries kicked in we began to struggle.

Team wasn’t in too bad nick in December when you had all those draws. Certainly games you’d still be expecting to win.

Why do people think like this. Missing fans is not the same for everyone. For some managers, fans don't mean anything.

For someone like Klopp, fans mean everything. You can see it in his behaviour during and after games.

Klopp is manager that taps into the passion of the fans. It's part of his style. He replies partly on passion and emotions to make his te more determine ned and desperate to win for him and the fans. It drives him and it's missing.

Look at Klopp's interviews since covid broke. He's clearly not enjoying football behind closed doors. He's not feeling it the way he would be if fans were there. That connection with fans has been a part of Klopp's success at every single club he's been at.

Tired of hearing how everything is the same for everyone. Nothing is ever the same for everyone.

It makes sense prima facie, but missing fans is not the same for everyone. City are already used to it too, and that gives them an unfair advantage

This this and this. People are just jealous we have the best supporters in the world.

Might have known it would be worse for Liverpool having to play in empty stadiums
So tier 2 and having 2000 fans for a few games wasn’t a big benefit then? Not many teams had that advantage

Of course not this season, it's hard to improve on near perfection. Especially when you've had an injury crisis.

Weak excuses.

Not as weak as your comeback.

If you want my comeback, you will have to scrape it from your Mrs teeth

We didn't do too badly with 2,000 fans for those few games, did we? Which further illustrates my point.

I wonder if Liverpool’s players are garbage in train king because there aren’t any fans to cheer them on

Not as cute as Liverpool fans like yourself who I doubt have ever been to Anfield thinking their fans are the difference between them being top and 6th 😂

They have a million fans waiting for a season ticket, until they charged to be on the list. Now that’s a list shorter than West Ham trophy list.

You're forgetting the injuries.

----------------------------------------------------------------------
We won the first game in December and the second is when we lost our last centre back and had to use two midfielders from the second half. We drew. We won our third game against Spurs with a youth centre back with a midfielder alongside him. We won the next game 7-0 when Matip came back from injury. We drew the fifth game in December when Matip was put out for the season to add to the two first choice centre backs who were already out for the season. By now the Injuries are starting to add up as we're having to play players without rests due to injuries. We then drew to Newcastle. The trend continued from West Brom when all the injuries mounted. January would then see the two midfielders brought in to centre back injured and one out out for the season.
