Even if a lads never been in the prem and hew done this betting prior to coming up or even season 1..... The whole ****ing world knows you can't be involved in any form of betting or passing info for betting. There's loads of cases that every kid involved in football should know that is on the same level at times as drugs. You will get nailed to the wall
100% Excuse to play 4 forwards and kill us on counter. There's a lot of nervy players in this game. I'd focus on playing guys who are not on a plane to world blood cup. Milner Konate Robertson Henderson thaigo Elliott Salah As an example Trent, vvd, fabinho, nunez might all be minding themselves.
Not complaining because we asked for it after that ****show in Napoli. We would have got Frankfurt otherwise.
Got tot beat the best to win it. This season we’ve been better against the better teams. By time Madrid come around we might be in some better form. Good to look forward to.
If we couldn't beat them when we were good... Do we know if we play them at home first or second? Definite underdogs, but if we're on it then we're more than capable.
guys. chillax. Nobody cares who city got. Nobody cares who cheslea got nobody cares who spurs got. #reality small tim clubs who'll get done over like kipper in last 16 or go out in QF. LFC get real. well guess what.... they have to come to anfield so don't be borrowing from tomorrows problems... this game is 4? months away.
We're at home first, which I actually think benefits us. Our best chance is catching them cold at Anfield and then countering at the bernabeu.
Thanks. Not sure I agree; I think we're better when we know what we need at home. But it is how it is and it worked against Bayern a couple of years ago so lets do it!
I really did not want this draw, however, we have a chance and while we will need a lot of luck, they might get slightly complacent after our last few meetings. In short, we owe them a beating
LOLS I had not seen this in the europa as really... who pays attention unless you are in it Apparently if you don't win your group now in europa (aka disrespecting comp and playing kids and ****s who don't care) then you have to play a 3rd placed team dropping from CL. Man utd's reward for ****ing up their Europa group... If you top the group you go into last 16 finish second and you must do the slog of a play off round of 32 v a cl team. the irony for utd is that they lost only one game away to sociedad 3-1 on the opening round (like us) and won every game since (like us) but on head to head Sociedad win the group. 1-0 with ronaldo on the last day rather than hockeying their direct rivals = nightmare draw. Arsenal won their group so not only did they avoid this nightmae but they also possibly get a much easier draw in last 16.
5 wins is usually enough to win the group - we came up against a team that is currently on fire, so we did well enough considering our indifferent form in the league. I'd rather we didn't play Real, but we're overdue a win against them. If we haven't found form by mid February we might as well give in anyway.
I didn't see the draw but Napoli had to be kept away from Inter and AC Milan, so not as straightforward as swapping us for Napoli?
As LFC and Chelsea have been drawn on opposite sides of the CL draw (the last 16 is over quite a long time) there is now no window to play the LFC and Chelsea game in. same for spurs and city apparently. It looks like dodgy refs will be brought out to ensure there's a cup weekend or midweek going free for LFC.
