I have begun to reflect on this football year (although it is not over) . I will happily admit I was not that optimistic about where the club would be at this point. I recall anger at the fact we hadn't signed a cb (Virgil), we didn't landed a cm (Keita) . Instead we were left with a Chelsea reject and and an Arsenal flop, as well as a lb from Hull.

Now of course the moral I have taken from this wonderful year is not to make immediate judgements, especially in football. We are way too fickle at times. We assess a player before we have ever seen them. I for one am guilty of this. For example, all of us Football Manager fans who speculate whether they are good from the progression they make on this game should possibly reconsider. Or those of us who judge them by the reputation we believe they hold because Dave told us down the pub that they are cr*p. I understand the euphoria of signing a continental player but let's learn to judge them on their time at Liverpool and not what has occurred before. I understand that signings sometimes fail but those who make those decisions know better (unless they are pardew, alladyce, pulis and all of the washed up premier league managers) .

So I ask this summer to remain positive whatever happens. We proved that we could contend with a player from Hull, a reject from Chelsea and an Arsenal flop.

Well said, mate. Just out of interest, how good is Salah on this season's game? Did they predict he would be this good and does he turn into a world beater on it?

In the winter update Salah get a boost in speed related stats better finishing and an upgrade in potencial ability.
In my save Salah won balon de oro.

Lots of respect Muzz, I remember an unbelievable amount of people being negative and short sighted last season about the Ox, Robbo and to a point Salah and it became a little tiring trying to defend them and people being unable to even take the point of view seriously. But it takes a real man to admit his mistakes and learn from them, so kudos to you. Let’s hope for a more optimistic and trusting fan base on here this summer. All the best.

I go back to Klopp saying that having Milner in midfield is like a new signing and me thinking:" dude, seriously?! "

Lesbian well and firmly learnt.
