5 is the number of steps you can take in Liverpool before you get stabbed. And 5 IS THE IQ OF THIS BOLTON FAN
Back in them days you would never see Barcelona or Real Madrid in the same competition AC Milan, Juventus or Inter Milan facing one another in the semi finals. The places were filled up by mainly Champions of countries like Belgium, Switzerland or Sweden where the facilities were nothing like they are compared with the English, Italian and German sides. The players of these teams were not always full professionals. Says it all really. And so does the fact that no team has retained the European Cup in 20 years.
So you have won the European Cup (whatever format)2 more times than United, and that constitutes a long shadow at Anfield!? Wow impressive So how long is the shadow at O.T. for the amount of FA cups and League titles compared to LFC?
No disrespect to Liverpool fans but please stop living the past. Live for the new season and improve. Yes history is important but it is not as important as to winning your next trophy. Yes we all know you won 5 CL - well done! But what you win last year? Be ambitious and fight for all trophies and again leave history be history!!!
Back in the day it was 2 legged knockout the whole way through wasn't it? Now you get 6 games to get out of your group, with perhaps 1 half decent team and 2 minnows filling up the group. If you lose 2 maybe even 3 games in the group you can still qualify, also it was only the champions in the competition then so i dont agree with your opinion.
God only breathes with the best of them, bury the rest of them A storm is comin, I got a hundred mile runnin head start on these niggaz cause it's murder for life
More often than not the team you would play in the knockout rounds would be minnows. Very rarely when Liverpool won a European Cup in the 70's & 80's did they face a European Powerhouse.
You can rarely lose 3 games and qualify. Its almost impossible. 10 points Is considered the minimum needed to get out the group generally. You then play about as many games as you do in the old EC format anyway if you reach the final. last 16, 1/4 finals, semi finals, final, This is always against the cream of europe, very few minnows have ever got out of the group. the knockout stages generally contain teams from the 5 biggest leagues in world football something that never happened in the old EC.
in 20 years time, barca fans sayin,we beat a no mark club from england called manchester united who only won it 3 times
in 20 years time, barca fans sayin,we beat a no mark club from england called manchester united who only won it 3 times .................................................... along with "gather round kids once upon a time there was a football team supported by deluded rat eating supporters, who thought their team was the best in the world ever .... fakt, this was on the strength that they had won the European Cup not 3 but 5 times" and the kids will go "Honest? Honest? but what happened to them? We've never heard of them!" "Well kids around the begining of what we called the 1990's they just disappeared!!!" Kids - " Awesome dude!" I kid thee not
