"Parking the bloody bus" Although to put things straight... Never ever said I like El Cholo's brand of football at all. Just found it amazing that with a club with much less resources than many around has managed to compete with the monsters. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Danny Posted May 3, 2018 Share Posted May 3, 2018 Liverpools defence is shocking, how much did they spend on van Dijk and they're still conceding like this? The final will either be full of goals or a bore draw till penalties, but I expect the former. Liverpool can't defend and Real play on the counter attack and have Ronaldo.

LFCMadLad Posted May 3, 2018 Share Posted May 3, 2018 Keep it coming lads! Danny and Teso obviously haven’t watched us with any interest since VVD was signed and it’s funny how they spout off every game, even when we demolish teams. If you think we won’t cause Madrid problems and probably score a few then you’re just plain daft. “Liverpool can't defend and Real play on the counter attack and have Ronaldo” Well Madrid can’t defend and we play on the counter and we have Mane, Firmino & Salah. Bring it on, it’s in the bag Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
True Blue Posted May 3, 2018 Share Posted May 3, 2018 Turned it off at 2-2, then saw it was 4-2 this morning. Roma didn't look like getting two more in a million years. Oh well they went out with their heads up high. No one really expected them to be in the semi, congrats to Liverpool for making it to the final.

Subscriber Mel81x+ Posted May 3, 2018 Subscriber Share Posted May 3, 2018 May 26th can't come soon enough now and I genuinely think we'll cause Madrid some massive headaches because their defense (although touted as being superior) is prone to a lot of mistakes and I am going to enjoy watching our front three work them. Special note to Karius in that first half yesterday he was brilliant and commanding. We just need him to do that more and I think he might be another massively good signing for us.

Panflute Posted May 3, 2018 Share Posted May 3, 2018 The way things have been up to now, the final has got to be a high-scoring shitshow. This game was fun although I still wonder how Liverpool managed to lose 4-2 after that first half. The refereeing was pisspoor and Roma should've gotten a penalty earlier when it still mattered, but let's not forget that Liverpool were denied 1 or 2 penalties in the first half when Kostas Manolas was dishing it out in the box, so we can do away with any conspiracy theories and just accept that the referee was shit.

Ive already said you'll score, doesn't change the fact your defence is still suspect. They were given 2 penalties over the 2 legs that were laughable and did you actually see their first goal last night? It was a freak goal that went in off Milners head at about 100 mph. Thats 3 goals out of the 6 you can write off. We comfortably kept out City (supposedly the best attacking side Eva) over 2 legs, conceding only 1and have one of the best defensive records in the league since VVD came in, yet no mention of that? All you can do is question what we spent on VVD when it’s obvious to any berk how much he’s improved us To come on and slag our defence off without context after we’ve just reached a CL final just sounds like sour grapes to me. Nothing new from you and Teso though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Even before kick off some were saying stuff like ..”wow look at Liverpool’s bench... such poor depth”! Not taking into consideration that Matip, Ox, Lallana & Emre Can have all been missing through long term injuries and would have made us much stronger over the 2 legs had they been available. Weve got a 19 year old playing in 40 odd games this season, in high pressure games like this and City at RB because Clyne has missed a full season, yet he gets slated on here for being shit? Like fuck he’s shit! He’s a massive talent that will be our RB for years to come. He got no protection last night at all bless him yet still came through. Weve simply not been able to rotate at all for ages and it showed last night... We looked absolutely knackered after 60 minutes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LFCMike Posted May 3, 2018 Share Posted May 3, 2018 We know the defence isn't perfect but squad wise we're down to the bare bones, that's not helped over these two games. You're looking at our bench last night and there's no one you would be confident in coming on really apart from maybe Clyne who isn't match fit. But when the midfield and attack are tiring there's nothing. It invites the pressure onto us because the front 6 are running on empty. You can see that Klopp is reluctant to throw Solanke or Ings on too early because of the huge gap in quality Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Liverpool to score on the counter and go 1 up on the night. Roma to then score 3 and make it a nervy final few minutes for Liverpool.

Inverted Posted May 3, 2018 Share Posted May 3, 2018 Tbf, Manolas easily could have given a penalty away in the first half, and the two pens that were given vs Liverpool were complete bullshit. Cup competitions are so luck-dependent that if you focus on the breaks that one side get you lose all perspective of the balance of the tie.
