[@the_unspoken_voice]

Isak > both mate.

[@marvinprudencio7321]

Watkins wouldn’t score as many goals if almost every week he had to play a deep defensive line. He would have hardly any room to pass the ball for those assists, he would have multiple shots blocked or saved, and he would have less counter attacking chances with the opposition defense sitting so deep. You saw how even Arsenal had to play a deep defensive line to stop Manchester City from creating chances and winning. Haaland has 19 non penalty goals which is the same as Watkins so the no penalties argument doesn’t even matter.

[@rebekah4679]

​@marvinprudencio7321 Haaland wouldn't score as many goals if City players didn't pass the ball to him😅 he offers you goals but not much else. That's why he looks so Lukaku-ish when City plays teams like Liverpool or Madrid. Everyone else is playing football while he's merely waiting to score. I have no issue with that. That's what he is supposed to do as a forward. I'm not getting the point you're trying to make with Watkins. 'If this or that were the case' doesn't really work in reality. If prime Barcelona wasn't set up the way it was, perhaps Messi would not have scored so many goals. You could argue but then again, conjectures have infinite possibilities. Watkins has lots of assists. It's not just goals. And the fact that he has a lot of goal contributions in a Villa team... irrespective of their structure... is worthy of praise. Do you really think coaches would purposely set up their teams for failure? Or set up their teams in a manner that would not be beneficial to their forwards? Haaland is the more clinical striker but Watkins, overall, is better. Stats aside, the eye test shows me that Ollie is the more dynamic player. I don't like how people try to minimise what players like Watkins, Isak and/or Solanke have accomplished this season. If they played for City or Liverpool or even Chelsea (like Cole Palmer), people would be waxing poetic about them. Meanwhile, players like Eze or Olise who've been out of the Palace team for large chunks of the season have good performances and scored quality goals but they won't be hyped like Palmer.

[@inezodom5904]

I love how whenever City has a close title race with another team, a combined 11 is always dominated by the other team, but City ends up with the league

[@tombolton6063]

because arsenal have many 9/10s but every city player is at worst an 8/10.

[@MrShahussa]

That's because Man City uses many more players than other teams. That's why they are so consistent. Injuries don't affect them as much as other teams (KDB out for more than half season, Haaland missing for a good chunk). Imagine Liverpool w/o VVD or Alison in 2021. Look at Arsenal collapse without one of their CB last year

[@chunkypuffs3838]

Carragher got so defensive during this because he knows he’s overthought it and thrown together a ridiculous team🤣

[@CianMcsweeney]

In fairness to him, the whole "team of the season" format is a bit of a joke, if you want to actually put together a functional team you have to ignore a lot of the best players in the league to have a sane formation, would be better if instead of a best 11 it was a full matchday squad so you could fit notable mentions onto the subs bench

[@lexcitly]

Carragher saying De Bruyne should go in because of his stats despite being injured, but then saying Haaland doesn't deserve the spot despite having 6 more goals while playing 7 less games than Watkins doesn't make sense.

Watching that defensive display last night and still putting Van Dijk in with a straight face is shameless beyond belief.

[@liamdaley6922]

What goal was his fault? Genuinely what goal can you even fault him for? The TEAM defensive display was shameless. VVD has been the best defender in the league by every metric besides clean sheets, which is a team metric.

[@Tesmond256]

I would have Isak this season surprised he is not mentioned. Harland has missed so many one on ones as has Watkins. Pretty sure Isak has a better one on one conversion rate than those 2.

If Watkins isn’t on the team this whole conversation needs to get thrown out. Pickford Trent Saliba Gabriel Udogie Rice Rodri Palmer Odegaard Foden Watkins

[@cowboyorangesoda8408]

Carragher was trying to explain why he made his choices and Gary just tries to put him down at every moment. If he listened, he actually made some good points backed up by stats.

Liverpool fans when reminded they only won the Premier League once under Jurgen Klopp’s tenure, always clap back with “he was up against a FFP cheating Man City or 115 Man City”. Man City ARE FFP Cheats. However , Only on 2 season's did Klopp's failure was because of losing out to man city cheating. Not 9seasons. State of it. Here are the COLD facts of Jurgen Klopp’s Liverpool: Season 2015/16 - Finished 21 points behind Leicester City. 115 Man City excuse gone. Season 2016/17 - Finished 17 points behind Chelsea. 115 Man City excuse gone. Season 2017/18 - Finished 6 points behind Ole’s Man Utd 115 Man City excuse gone. Season 2018/19 - Finished 1 point behind Man City. *115 Man City excuse YES!! Season 2019/20 - Finished as Champions. 115 Man City excuse gone. Season 2020/21 - Finished 5 points behind Man United. 115 Man City excuse gone. Season 2021/22 - Finished 1 point behind Man City. *115 Man City excuse YES!! Season 2022/23 - Finished 8 points behind Man United. 115 Man City excuse gone. Season 2023/24 - Finished 3rd behind Arsenal 115 Man City excuse gone. Am I wrong? WE are shite yet still finished ahead of Klopp's team 3 times. State of it.

"Am I wong?", Idk mate, it's too early to say really, but you're 100% assuming things and making hypothetical judgements so you could be proven right to an extent, but I don't respect your arguments at all lol. Also, ffp charges span till 2018, and were minor charges since 2017, so 2021/22 season definitely is suspicion free, and 18/19 less arguably so.
