This simple statement really does sum a lot of it up perfectly. Nailed it.

Its a common theme of the summer break on here where all rational thinking just goes out of the window....even sensible posters can come out with all sorts of nonsense.

That's not the whole story though. If they're being brought in as competition/rotation options then even if they're not as good as Dele and Eriksen, they're probably a lot better than our backups.

Usual, bigging the bindippers up, admiring them from afar, defending the accusations of being a Niveapool fan whilst admiring them & moaning about us. I've only got bus conductor on ignore (great feature for sure)He's on ignore, give me a brief summary

Wembley was definitely a factor, but they've still improved this year. VVD, Roberson and Salah are all upgrades on what they had before. Alexander Arnold looks like a great prospect, and Oxlade Chamberlain finally looks like a good player. I still think we're the second best team in the league and I'm more worried about catching City than anything else, but they're definitely going in the right direction these days.
To be fair the Liverpool games were full of incident so not all that surprising how long the threads were.
You can't sneak Dele in there as someone who was bought to improve the first team straight away! He was definitely one for the future who came in and blew everyone away.
He's definitely a Tottenham fan, I've seen him post in loads of threads over the years. I don't really get why he's getting so much grief. He said they had a decent transfer policy and then they managed to get to the champions league final... It's pretty hard to argue with that part.

I was talking more about their league performance, they definitely haven't improved.
I found him to be okay... You have a problem with my views which do not conform to your superior views on the Dippers then you more than welcome to put me on ignore... Ive done it with about 3 posters. Life has been amazing since then. Try it....
The reason for the grief Nailsy is if you dare say anything positive about the dippers its automatically viewed as a slight against Spurs.. Theres a poster in here getting the same grief now just for mentioning their excellent business.
The worse part is dislike them but not as much as i do Chelsea..... But i am able to acknowledge their good work.

I appreciate your ability to be objective and fair-minded, but I think you underestimate the importance of rivalry. Saying something good about someone not on your team does, however much you don't intend it, infer a slight upon your own team.
Did a Labour politician stick up for Amber Rudd and say 'well, at least she's good at maths'?
No.
Did the keyboardist in Ultravox say 'to be fair, that Joe Dolce song is quite catchy and upbeat'?
No.
Did Morgan Freeman and Alan Rickman say 'I tell you what, Patrick Bergin was a far more convincing Robin Hood than Kevin'?
Probably. But that's beside the point.
Football is tribal. If you say something complimentary about another team, you are, by default, seen not to be supporting yours. And I get the fact that Liverpool look as if they're doing good business but
(a) as a rule, the team who 'win' the summer transfer window don't win much else
and
(b) take it to the General Transfers thread.
If West Ham ever bought anyone good and someone praised them in the 'Let's all laugh at West Ham thread', I'd have a blue fit. I know this isn't likely to happen but, still, have a care. People come here to laugh at Liverpool and I think that need for petty, bitter schadenfreude borne out of years of Liverpool actually being good (and/or having had to suffer Bread, Boardman, Tarbuck and Lawro all these years) (and/or having had their hub caps half-hinched) should be respected and not diluted with objective assessments of their quality. That's just my views, though.

Stop pissing your knickers @ piedpipper this is the let’s all laugh at Liverpool thread is it not? You guys want to discuss what you see as their positive moves and excellent business etc start another thread. I’ll blank it coz I’m here for the shits and giggles. Got nothing against you tbh but I come here to laugh at the Nivea loving crawly bum licks myself
Thanks for the well considered reply. Yes i get its tribal and. until i bumped into this thread i never knew the obsession ( not rivalry) was this huge. Its a Liverpool thread so its the most appropriate place to comment on them. Whether its good or bad.
Let me not hog the thread and allow others the opportunity to enjoy their favourite past time.
