The Forgotten Reds Saga…
Ladies and Gentlemen, boys and girls, grab your popcorn and park your egos, because the FIFA Club World Cup is rolling out the red carpet in the USA! But wait, where are the mighty Liverbirds? Our dear Liver-buddies earned a ticket to this shindig back when dinosaurs roamed the earth, after their 2018/19 Champions League triumph! But alas, the pesky pandemic hit reset, and the party biscotti was saved for a year far, far away. Now, Chelsea and Man City knicked the golden invites and left our dear Reds confined to their couches this time around.
Fear not, oh wise Kopites! The universe works in mysterious ways. While Chelsea and Manchester City will be busting their boots on American soil, Jurgen Klopp’s marauders will be enjoying a summer siesta. Could this chillaxation turn into a secret weapon for Liverpool’s next Premier League title crusade? England boss Thomas Tuchel seems to think so. With their tootsies up, Liverpool might just find themselves leading a winning war cry when the real battle resumes.
But fear not, fellow footy fanatics! Your cravings can be satisfied by catching some ex-Reds in action! Keep an eye on Luis Suarez galloping like a gazelle for Inter Miami, hoping to boost the club’s Messi-powered flair. Meanwhile, Trent Alexander-Arnold aims to dazzle like a dancing starfish at Real Madrid. And who can forget the quiet flame Allan, ready to ignite sparks with Flamengo! Whether managing or playing, these former Reds are ready to paint the Cup red… metaphorically speaking, of course!
