The Good, The Bad & The Ugly – 2024/25 Gameweeks #8 & #9
Wins against the Blues and Leipzig too, but against the Gunners there was just too much to do. Do claims about a Ballon d’Or mean the player doesn’t want to stay anymore? And in FPL we score for fun as our team remains number one.
The Good
The 2-1 win over Chelsea at Anfield on Sunday. A first half penalty from Mo Salah and a second half tap-in from Curtis Jones was enough to pip their in-form visitors to the points.
As usual, this fixture didn’t go without incident. Cody Gakpo had a goal disallowed and Diogo Jota left the field with another injury after a first half collision. Curtis Jones also earned the side a second penalty, which was later denied after a VAR check.
All in all a good day at the office with the result putting the Reds back on top of the table, having slipped to second when Manchester City won earlier in the day. Elsewhere, Arsenal were humbled 2-0 by lowly Bournemouth.
The 2nd Good
Winning against RB Leipzig in the third game of this seasons Champions League after the 0-1 away victory.
The (Not) Bad
The draw against Arsenal at the Emirates. Could have been worse!
The Ugly
Trent sound as if he’s off!! When the Liverpool FC right back stated he wants to win the Balon d‘Or.
