Match Day Thread Europa league R16: Liverpool V Man Utd

Shush!!! I thought Macca went too far on that tonight. His childhood Blueshiteness was coming through there.

 

The only one I would argue with

 

Yes, very well. We didn't give you a sniff and raped you for 90mins.

 

Did you just watch my team play?

 

I take it you are young and don't remember your glory years when you had a good team

 

5/8 games isn't a bad record

 

I think you read that wrong on purpose

 

Martial every 23 games

Depay every 20 games

 

He's back out of the Man Utd shirt for some reason

 

I'm 36 so yes I do remember some good times, even if it was on my dads shoulders on the Kop.

But I've seen enough old footage to know how good we were.


BTW - I'm not saying we were as good as Liverpool of old

All I'm saying is you can't just say we played ****, because you were ****ter!!

 

Not talking about scoring goals, just turning up for the game

 

I'm not, just saying it was a poor game with very little quality. You were the better of the two teams on the night but were far from good.

 

Saha saying Can shouldn't be going down following the elbow from Fellaini as there wasn't much contact...

 

Didn't want to humiliate you and show the world that English football isn't what it once was

 

We'll have to agree to disagree. I thought we played excellent all round the pitch, you couldn't get a sniff due to our high pressing.

 

2nd best manager, 2nd best players, 2nd best fans

3 silver medals isn't bad

 

This is off topic.

And You could classify myself as a young fan (growing up with Fowler and Owen). But In fairness, would any existing player in either of our starting elevens actually remember the Liverpool glory years? .

 

Or our lack of effort and piss poor passing.
I am disappointed (at best) at the moment and may be more forgiving tomorrow

 

Yay, we got a silver

 

anyway what a great win that was.

Lallana impressed me the last few games and had another good one tonight

Firmino our top scorer this season is looking like a 30m player after arguably a slow start.

Can again continued his recent good form

Henderson was ok, still nowhere near the player he was pre injury, hes not a captain though that is clear.

Coutinho was a real thorn in their side most of the night, when he plays well we generally do as a team, when he doesnt we dont, that needs to be addressed in the summer.

Sakho bar a few moments was ace, bullied the utd forwards and fed the ball forward brilliantly i thought.

Origami - been saying since day one he will be a player for us and he got involved and looked lively from the second he got on, he grows on me even more and Benteke might as well start packing imo hes not moving this kid.

Cline had one of his best games for us.

Great atmosphere, game was probably dulled slightly early with the ref handing out yellows like they were business cards but there was still plenty of passion on show from us anyway.

Good stuff, 2-1 win in the 2nd leg pls
