    This.

    If we can't beat Brighton we don't deserve CL football.

    Fortunately we've got the CL final as a back up.. but if we can't beat Brighton we won't beat Real Madrid!!

    All this excitement about top 4! It’s done and dusted. Between Spurs and Pool you have 3 homes games against Newcastle, Leicester and Brighton. All 3 of those will be Home wins. Chelsea have left it just too late

    We have 2 games left this season...win 1 and we're fine.

    Trouble is we look knackered and 1 of them is Real Madrid.

    It's too late for us imo. Too little too late, and not good enough over the course of the season
    We'll see though.

    I was just looking at league, can’t see you not beating Brighton. They are literally on a beach!

    Anything can happen now.

    I knew we wouldn't beat you yesterday. The team put so much into that CL semi final.


    Anyway **** next year tbh. Everyone's wanting what we've got this year a CL final.

    A lot of Liverpool fans seem more concerned about qualifying for a tournament next year that we're in the final of this year.

    The money problem has spread to the supporters ffs <laugh>

    Tbh mate the CL isn't a tournament I like personally, too incestuous. The club wouldn't agree with me though. <laugh>

    I like the Europe league. Love the CL personally. But have always stuck up for it when people knock the Europa.

    It's interesting seeing so many variants of football from all round Europe. For some reason English fans have a superiority complex about it. Odd.

    Both are major European cups in my eyes. Winning either takes a huge effort.

    Anyone watch El'Classico last night? Proper feisty game. Good match tbh.

    Ronaldo injured at half time. Zidane says he'll be fine for the CL final....but he needs a scan so you never know.

    Barca did well to hold on with 10 men tbf. Some of those Madrid players are right pansies. Marcello in particular. ****ing wuss.

    It's sad that fans are more concerned with the financial aspects of footy than actually winning things. You know as well as me that some of our fans would take top 4 over the FA Cup. Bonkers.

    Agree with this. If we finish 5th and win the FA Cup, I'd be very happy.

    Dumb **** init.

    We want to qualify for the CL just so that we can sacrifice the domestic trophies and moan about not having enough strength in depth to compete in cups and a league campaign next season in the hope that we can qualify for the CL in the season 19/20

    In the mean time Poch is trying to brainwash me into thinking domestic trophies don't matter...almost...but no cigar for that windmilling...I'm not buying it.

  17. And so you should, Bluey.

    For top 4 regulars, such as us, we're looking ahead to being able to attract the best signings in the Summer.

    Blueman and Hoddle is a god like this.

  19. I note what you say, Bro, and agree with every word of it.

    However, for wum purposes, I am going to ignore it and carry on as usual.

    Probably has something to do with the billions we gave them to build a fedrelist super power to **** us with. Who needs an army?
