Premier League 2018-19

[paulxu]

As one of my Reds teams fades away on another difficult season...the other is off to a good start a 5-0-0.

One of my Reds teams continues on its winning ways.

Liverpool is looking strong. I do like manager Jürgen Klopp. He seems to actually have fun. Too many of the other managers always look like someone pissed in their Wheaties.

I bet Klopp is the next Mannschaft manager after Loew is done. That guy is a great coach of the game.

Been a Reds fan since 2001 while working in London. A colleague invited me up to Liverpool for the weekend. Took me to Anfield and the rest is history. OF course, after dominating the 70's and 80's they've yet to win Premier League title. My paranoid self sees that as all my fault. Is this the year? Long way to go but it's looking good. We'll find out in a couple of hours if it continues against Arsenal. Wolves just equalized against Spurs as well. It all seems to be falling into place ... for now.

Hell of a first half for Liverpool. I love watching EPL, but don’t have a single favorite team. I like Crystal Palace since they played a friendly against FC Cincinnati a few years ago. Leicester City is another after their improbable championship in 2016. As for the top teams, I like Man City (just because it’s not Man United) and Liverpool because of Klopp.

I loved James Corden’s take on Americans picking an EPL team to follow. It starts about 4:35 in this.

Liverpool over Barcelona. Incredible.

They've only lost 1 game this season...but still a point behind Man City.

But 7 draws vs 2 for City is going to keep them from the title unless Brighton and Hove Albion can pull a major upset on Sunday.

One of them needs to step up :)

Ugh.

[KabeX]

Ugh.
Still set a record. But most points by a 2nd place side means... 29 years and counting - just like our hometown Reds. BUT another Champions League title awaits!

Champions League winner!

They travel well. Must have been 30,000 or more in Madrid.

Liverpool fans are known for being good travelers, it's also a lot easier to maneuver around Europe when already there too, though the game felt like a pre-season friendly at times, where things were incredibly sloppy, it was well deserved by Liverpool. They had a phenomenal season, and I genuinely enjoy Klopp and his tactics, I have no idea how you wouldn't want to run through a wall for that man, and as an Arsenal fan, as I watch us fall into inevitable mediocrity, it was nice that Tottenham are still trophy-less.

Having been in England over holidays and been around English fans, it’s nothing for them to travel to watch their teams. Flights are relatively inexpensive and a two hour flight has you to Italy, or a short train ride France or Germany. We often forget how big the United States is.

Yep. Watching one of the EPL games late in the season and Rebecca Lowe mentioned that the match was the farthest the visiting team would travel all year. I looked up the distance and it was less than Cincinnati to Cleveland.
