Ha, yeh, that one has been swirling around for a little while.
No idea as to the truth or otherwise of it, but let's say it doesn't strike me as totally implausible

This is the original source for what they're saying:
https://backpagefootball.com/why-liverpool-wont-win-the-premier-league-this-season/126313/
"According to a source close to the club, of 35 players 22 are asthmatic – 63% of the squad, over five times higher than the 12% UK average."
Does this Alan Moore bloke have a friend who is "close to the club", close enough to have access and reveal this information to him? No idea.

This is fairly common throughout sport, almost every top athlete has asthma. Which is extraordinarily improbable.
Or, is it? What causes asthma? Are some people just naturally sporty from a young age so spend a lot of time in the outdoors and develop it as a result? I don't know enough but I'm not surprised a large percentage of the Liverpool squad claims to have asthma, almost every professional cyclist has it too.

I have heard that Alan Moore knows the score. Can U Dig it?

Liverpool has one of the highest if not highest, rates of asthma in the country. Still wouldn't give a reasonable explanation for this were it true though.
Sounds very iffy but before I start to slag off Liverpool it would be nice to know what the figures are for other clubs.
People have been saying for years that there is a performance enhancing drugs problem within football. It gets covered up as there is so much money in the sport.

There was this story very recently
https://www.mirror.co.uk/sport/football/news/premier-league-failed-drugs-test-26730023.amp
I’m very confident clubs do their own testing as well as a few footballers seemed to disappear for long periods with ‘injuries’ which seemed suspect. Even more so when some have been involved in ‘drink driving’ incidents or similar
Was some suggestions a few players have been addicted to things like Xanax etc as well
15 players test positive, none of them get named. Other players will see this and realise they can get away with it.
