Welcome to the latest edition of First State Kopites – a podcast for Liverpool supporters in Delaware and friends of those Liverpool supporters.

It’s January 25th, and it’s episode 20 of our 4th season. welcome dear listener. I’m Paul and I am joined by Daz and Justin. Well, we don’t like Chelsea and we don’t enjoy not beating them - somehow sent us off to talk geopolitics, philosophy, and finding the right curseword for that team. Thanks for joining us.

Chelsea game:

  • Their fans suck. Still singing the Gerrard song, 9 years later
  • The commentary was absolute crap - ‘VAR ‘saved’ Liverpool” WTF? OMG Jim Proudfoot  was so negative about Liverpool (again). 22 minutes - Chelsea playing the better football… were they? 32 minutes - Liverpool really struggling:
    • There was a lot of flatter to deceive stuff from Chelsea. Apart from set pieces not much of a threat.
    • Mudryk sycophancy? It is officially the second coming of Christ with the neck tattoos! Irony of money from this transfer going to Ukraine.
    • How has Oliver become this bad - Jorginho falls over in the box and gets a bail out free kick? Gallagher?
      • And his mate the linesman was bizarrely wrong on multiple occasions
      • And the hand ball - of course Thago didn't know anything about it;)
      • Took us a while to figure things out - took the initiative last 10 of the first half and first 15 of the second. Then took Keita off for Darwin. Could Darwin have appeared for 30 minutes at half time?
      • The press  - feel like Elliott can have a negative impact on it
      • Gomez/Konate, Bajcetic, Keita - green shoots!
      • Cody Gakpo

        • Part 2 - Brighton away and assess the squad

        • Given how we’ve played against them both games this season, do we see ourselves getting past them?
          • They drew their last league game to Leicester. Leicester.
          • Line up - midfield, attack, defense?
          • Caceido transfer - the rumor they will take Ox of our hands for the low low price of zero pounds. And it has to be right now.
          • Mo Salah - playing poorly or not getting the opportunities?

            • Finally. these beautiful human beings did something that was considered impossible

            • 110 points in 38 games

              • We should be back sometime next week after Liverpool have played Brighton. Thanks to Justin and Daz.
