    When Liverpool are 3-0 down tonight and the commentator says; 'Remember 2005, when they came back and won......'
    I'm going to laugh. No magic come backs tonight Klopp, you have a bridesmaid record to uphold. <bubbly>

    Always good to have a day out at Wembley so the theory goes, but I'm not sure that I wouldn't rather go out earlier than lose in the play-off final. Well done, Fulham.

    Fulham are buying Wembley, so we get another day out there, and this time we might win!!!

    Fulham won't be playing there, the owner just wants the stadium

    Really, what for? I must admit, I put 2 & 2 together, but that is a surprise.

    He owns the Jacksonville Jaguars (NFL team) who have been playing a game in London every year for the last 5 years or so, so there is speculation that he might move the team to London and Wembley will be their stadium. Personally I don't think it is that as there are way too many logistical reasons why an NFL team in London wouldn't work, but that's another conversation.

    I think as a businessman he just sees an opportunity to make money out of Wembley and the FA see a quick way of making a lot of money.

    Hope that sale does not happen then. The FA are so daft, they will probably start renting it back at an obscene rate.

    I don't see the big deal tbh, might make England travel round the country when playing home games like other nations do and cup finals etc will still be played at Wembley. The FA would get a lot of cash as well which hopefully gets put into grass roots, whether the FA actually do that is the biggest concern for me

    Ah man, they just showed a clip of Salah scoring against us. I knew we'd be mentioned, but I didn't think they'd rub it in with pictures! :(

    Not sure if the Liverpool players looking so relaxed is good or bad.
    Real looking very businesslike.

    Having six ex-players in the combined lineups for a CL final has to be some sort of record.

    Nope, he's continuing. Thought that looked worse than it was.

    No, he's down again.

    Strangely, I feel really sorry for the lad. That was a tough watch.
