Watched it all over the weekend and really loved it. I’ve played about five minutes of Fallout 4 beforehand so I went in fresh really. The tone, the leads (maximus should be better in s2) and the world are all great.

I think Dortmund can do it tonight. They were the much better team in the second half, and got that vital goal to take into this second leg. Go out, and take the game to Madrid, because I cannot stand Simeone and his pack of dickheads. 

Palmer gets his third. Pickford hare brained decision gifts an open net to dink it into. Could be a long night for Everton here, they’ve been absolutely shocking since that first goal.

Gordon and Palmer should be going to the Euro's,  Grealish and Rashford should not. 

I agree on Rashford not going, but Grealish has to go. He’s very affective and offers something different to Gordon & Foden on the left. 

Everton…what the hell is this? 

Cole Palmer is fucking fantastic. 

I don’t get neutral fans comparing what Utd (or anybody in the early 90’s) did to what City have done. 
 

This is sportswashing. Propaganda for a state. A state that abuses human rights, has public executions, stone people, criminalise homosexuals, treat women as second class citizens….is that something really comparable with Utd taking full advantage of the new revenue available back then? 
 

They were very successful, and it wasn’t always because of a chequebook either. City have bent the rules every single time. They fake sponsorship to make it look like they bring in mega revenue. Revenue that is supposedly up there with Madrid and Utd….they aren’t even trying to hide the blatant bollocks. A 115 fucking charges. A hundred and fifteen.
 

Look at the way your own club tried to be shady and shift stuff around to stay within FFP, and you only got two charges, am I right? Can you imagine the shit that those cunts have been up to? And you’re comparing them to Utd whose success was in the right place at the right time. 
 

I fucking hate Man Utd, clearly. But what they have done is a FAR cry from what these horrible fucking bastards have done. Went from making about £4 profit ten years ago to now making £600m…laughable. 

I’ve had a look at the city fixtures, and while I do think that they will drop points, I don’t think either us or Arsenal are up for taking advantage of it. I can’t see us winning all of the last six (especially with 4/6 being away games) and Arsenal have Spurs, Chelsea and Utd still to play and I don’t think they get through those unscathed. 
 

Just too many shitty dropped points by both sides at the worst time possible. Glad we have top four tied up at least.

He’s a stupid little prick. Hopefully he doesn’t get another decent contract with a proper club.

Awesome to see. Very happy for Xabi, I really wish he hadn’t committed to them for the foreseeable

Congratulations to City on the title. After Utd, the most awful bunch of cunts to see lift it. 

That’s the last time I’ll be disappointed with us this season, because it feels like they have finally fucked any slight chance of the title. The whole lot involved were a disgrace today. Just like they have been the last 2-3 weeks. The Utd result destroyed the belief, this result destroyed the real chance. 
 

What an utter shit way to end the season. Out of the Europa league, out of the title. All our own doing for being shit all over the pitch. Feeling supremely let down.

Robertson does well to clear off the line to prevent 0-2. Van Dijk needs subbing off at this rate. Stood there gawking for the first then gone full Gerrard for that chance.

He’s done a lot of shouting at others the last few games,  but he has been just as bad. 
 

Ended the season like total shit. Expected a lot more from them today after that disaster on Thursday but they’ve been lax. Something seriously wrong with the players at the moment, they’ve well and truly lost momentum. 

That’s a pathetic goal to concede. 

The top three are ending the season with a whimper.

He’s not that bad he’s had Atalanta punching above their weight for years

Oh I fully agree, he’s an impressive coach. But I think the club are looking at the young up and coming type of manager. 
 

But if you asked me who I’d prefer out of Gasparini & DiZerbi, I wouldn’t be fast to make a decision on the younger man.

Knee jerk reaction - but if we're looking at people that have a decent track record but not much to show in the way of winning things in a big league... Gasperini from Atalanta's got a history of doing well on a budget and he's clearly very good tactically.

There’s knee jerk and then there’s this.  Thought I was bad Gonzo but bloody hell. 
 

I’m just going to take the rest of the season as it comes now. The last few weeks have shown nothing but regression from the side. Momentum has slowed right down, and I just don’t think that we go on a win run needed for the title. 

Leverkusen clear favourites now. I think that second goal makes it too much for West Ham. 
 

We are definitely out. All bark and no bite lately. Wouldn’t have scored against my local pub side tonight. I hate to say it, because I love his work rate, but Nunez is really testing my patience in front of goal. Really is.

You know the performance has been terrible if Gakpo's looking like our best player on the pitch.

Klopp showed some fucking arrogance playing him, Nunez and Elliot as the front three. 
 

I can’t see us keeping a clean sheet in the second leg so I reckon that’s it done cause we just done want to put the ball in the net at the moment. Disgrace from every player on the pitch. 

Utter fucking wank. Worst performance of the season this is, it’s a fucking mess from everybody on that pitch along with Klopp for that starting line-up. Play anything like this and Palace take points off us on Sunday as well.

Have Liverpool underestimated Atalanta, or have the away side been that good? 

We’ve defended like piss tonight. Both their goals were awful to concede, and they could have had more. Plus, at the other end we have been toothless again. 

I would have scored that. 

We’ve been fucking shit. 

We are really poor defensively lately, and Kelleher is starting to let some stupid things in. Really poor as a whole tonight though. 

I’ll never understand how you can pass to a teammate with a man on him with his back to the game. Dortmund keeper just did it in the worst part of the pitch, the div.
