We can play our Carabou cup team for the next CL games. West Ham could be a difficult one with all the injuries and Thiago clearly not match fit, but onward and upward
Bobby looked in pain. Hope it’s not too bad. Ox looked like a knock to the knee and was hopefully taken off as a precaution.
Ref took no **** from them. Why can't all refs be like that? It would soon cut out all the backchat and the play-acting.
I don't think the foul was worth a red in that area of the pitch - like you say, the ref just thought "**** it, have a red for being a twat".
The player just backed off and backed off when the ref was wanting him to approach for the card yeah, and a horribly cynical foul on Sadio who they seemed to be trying to get at.
I think they thought Mane was the player in our team who would react to their fouls so they could dive around when he retaliated and get him sent off. The stupid thing is when they bother playing football they are quite good at it.
Hermoso must be the most inappropriately named footballer around. Apart from Marvelous Nakamba maybe.
Disappointing second half. Nothing to do with the bad habits of show boating and not passing. I can shrug at that. All I wanted was no injuries. We pick up at least 1 Still group is done and we are in last 16 as top seed so at least theres that.
Very good performance tonight,thought we bossed it from the start and never got sucked Into AM's dirty game tactics. Nobody in Europe will want to come to Anfield after seeing that. Thought we might have gone on and tonked them by more than two.
