Such a disappointing way to end his Liverpool career. Liverpool were lukewarm (At best) about extending largely because of his injury history. Performance wise he has worked out perfectly fine for you, even outperformung van Dijk at times (most notably in the CL final against Spurs). Anyway, that's pretty much guaranteed the end of Matip's Liverpool career. He will leave with a nice colleciton of winners medals. I am kinda curious, whether he will sign elsewhere or just retire with a fair chance of being able to actually walk away from the game. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If they come out of back to back City and Arsenal with 6 points what a fucking week that is. I don't think they can win iit all, but its great for the league, other than another top 4 rival. Will be interesting. Last time Villa lost at home was to Arsenal. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

baxus Posted December 7, 2023 Share Posted December 7, 2023 Even a one year ban would end his career in top-level football. Would be a shame if he hadn't already done the same even before failing doping tests. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ljkeane Posted December 7, 2023 Share Posted December 7, 2023 5 hours ago, Consigliere said: Yeah, that’ll be the end of his Liverpool career. It’s a shame it ends on that note after largely a very time with us, at least he’s been good this season after a down year last season. On the plus side for Liverpool pretty all our centre backs have been good this year, including Quansah, so it’s not a complete disaster. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Consigliere Posted December 7, 2023 Share Posted December 7, 2023 Damn, just saw that Santos have been relegated for the first time in the club's history. From what I've read the club has been in trouble for a while and relegation seemed to be an inevitable outcome eventually. At least Pele didn't live to see his club go down.

I think HGH is fine for recovery after a major injury and not all peds are made the same. I'm not for a lifetime ban on the first positive test. The third? Sure, that's fair.

Wilbur Posted December 7, 2023 Share Posted December 7, 2023 It will be a shame to lose out on the opportunity to watch Matip gallop forward in an ungainly manner with the ball, through a bemused midfield, to lead an unexpected attack on goal. He seems like a good fellow, too, in much the same way the team was full of cheerful teammates there for a good while under Klopp. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
