But he ostracised Toby and Rose for almost an entire season over similar problems. As much as I've loved having a player of Eriksen's quality here, I would be expecting him to be similarly left out. Its clearly detrimental.

Don't know about blaming Levy, when Eriksen was playing well and we wanted to keep him, offering him contracts, Levy was well within his rights to ask for top money for a top player.
It's a business in the end and you can't sell your assets for less than you deem them worth.

Here’s what mou would do with the team
————————Lloris
Toby ———Sanchez——Verts———Davies
—————Sissoko ———Dier
—Lo Celso———Ndombele————Son
————————Kane
He would then call Dier a fat **** which would upset Dele. He would then complain about ndombeles running and play Foythas a #10. Sanchez would make a mistake so he’d sign a €40m garbage replacement from guinea Bissau with PA 178 on FM20.
Kane will do his ankle as he attempts to play his 70th consecutive game. He will then play Parrot as Levy refuses to spend €95m on Timo Werner (PA: 193). This will lead to the sack as we grind out our 4th consecutive 0-0 draw having won the league cup and finding ourselves in 12th.
We will hire Scot Dale the up and coming Charlton Athletic manager and Parrot will become top goal scorer. Mou will subsequently take credit and use this as proof of his faith in youth. He’ll even take credit for Dier’s eventual weight loss, even though he knows full well that is down to weight watchers.

The only silver lining to appointing Howe would be I win £90.

Yes Mou would not be interested in coming to us and not even Weightwatchers could save Dier

Funny because Mourinho wanted Dier at Man Utd...

Yes before Dier opened his own pie shop and started doing an impression of a turning tank

Something like this would be too sensitive to disclose so even if he knew anything I don’t think he’d say owt.

I totally understand the calls for him to be dropped - the guy is adding little value to the first team (and how he expects to attract a team like Real Madrid playing like that is anybody's guess) but you know how it goes with these situations - players that get sold or dropped seem to be stripped of all the criticism that they were given before they left.

Something has happened to change that. It must of. There's no way we go from being the team we were to this without something big happening behind the scenes. All I can think is its to do with the manager and being not allowed to take the Man U job or something like that. It's the only thing that was happening at the time that could have a baring on this change and then subsequent funk.

However you want to spin it, the fact is he asked to leave when no club was actually in for him.

I think Eriksen looking after himself and not showing up for most of the past 12 months is abhorrent. Far worse than a few sagging him off on an online message board

After losing the Champions League final in 2018, Klopp didn't sulk in his house for weeks on end and pretty much act like his one shot at winning the biggest trophy was gone for good. He kept perspective and used that success to push his team forward and actually win it the next season.
It almost seems like the CL final defeat has harmed us rather than push us forward. Talking about maybe quitting if we won was so damaging. It was such an all or nothing, short term attitude. It didn't then make sense to talk about a 'painful rebuild' and a 'new phase' of a project. Talk about mixed signals: is he completely invested in a major project, or one result away from quitting?
It doesn't inspire confidence but rather mistrust and confusion.
