Just got back and too bloody right I am happy, beer happy yes but football happy even more so! Who the fook would not have taken a three goal lead if offered it before kick off?
seriously mate, would an English player make a PL all star side?? perhaps 1 or 2, actually would make an interesting thread to get peoples thoughts on their PL 11 or 17 as I would gather there would be many differing opinions
Agreed they arent great, but under the right coaching they lead out a champions league quarter and semi final and d!ck them both
anyway back to the OP, glad it is ANZAC Day over here so I could watch the match, shame the 2 late goals were conceded but does make for a very interesting second leg
He's been much improved this season mate. Sure he's not top notch but what England player is? You can put an argument forward for Kane but that's pretty much it. The way Oxlade, Milner and Hendo have been playing as a trio, Southgate should be trying to get James to retract the international resignation!!! (I'd prefer no Liverpool player to be at the world cup #restthem #nextyearisouryear )
On a serious note. If UEFA deemed they could act on things outside a ground after city.... Will they now?
How. Lfc are responsible not Roma? How can Roma police two scumbags outside Anfield? They are in the hands of the police now.
Match stats - joint highest-scoring semi-final Liverpool are only the second side in Champions League history to score five goals in a semi-final match (also Ajax in 1995, 5-2 v Bayern Munich). This game produced the joint most goals of any Champions League semi-final match. Roma have won just one of their past 15 away Champions League games (D5 L9). Liverpool are the first side in Champions League history to have three players score eight or more goals in a single season in the competition (Salah 10, Firmino 10, Mane 8). The 10 goals scored by Salah and Firmino are the most by Liverpool players in a single season in European competition. Salah has netted 43 goals in all competitions this season - only Ian Rush in 1983-84 (47) has scored more in a single campaign for Liverpool. Salah's haul in the most by any player in all competitions in Europe's top five leagues this season. He has scored in each of his past five Champions League starts for Liverpool, something only Steven Gerrard had previously done. Only Cristiano Ronaldo (18) has been directly involved in more Champions League goals this season than Firmino (16, 10 goals, 6 assists). Milner has provided nine assists in the Champions League this season (including qualifiers), a new record. Wayne Rooney (2013-14) and Neymar (2016-17) assisted eight each in a campaign.
Just can’t believe that there’s a guy in hospital right now, fighting for his life, after being stabbed by a Roma fan. Disgusting.
Our greatest player in the premiership era bar none! We have to pray that he remains fit as a Salah-less team is just about top 8 standard despite the talent of his team mates.
So frustrating that we collapse when he’s subbed off. We seemed to improve on seeing out games but last two games have ended so poorly.
