To be depressed when your team is second and still with a chance of going top is taking it way too seriously
Indeed. I'm certainly not depressed - I think Liverpool have overperformed this season, considering they started with a whole new midfield and have been hit by a lot of injuries (so have other clubs, to be fair) which have meant occasionally needing to field a number of academy players. Liverpool's issues are very much #firstwordproblems
Nunez might yet come good. He looks both knackered and very low on confidence to me, and as a result is trying too hard.
Salah hasn't yet got back to full form and fitness since coming back injured from Afcon. He was on fire before he went away. I reckon he'll be back to normal by the start of next season.
The whole team looks a bit jaded, to be honest.
(Shankly was wrong - funny but wrong!)
I don't think he ever meant that line to be taken seriously.
