    Wolves been promoted to Prem. Dodgy dealings with the agent no doubt but they've been by far and away best team in the league.

    Interesting wha business they do in the summer, could be a surprise package next year. Wonder if any bigger clubs come in for Neves

    Daniel Sturridge is available on the cheap.

    Possibly the best side I've seen promoted in about 10 years. Look a proper good outfit. They could now become an established PL team imo

    They certainly have the infrastructure, decent stadium, good sized fan base, and a bent agent to boot. What could possibly go wrong

    Eddie Howe, speaking to BBC Sport:

    "We played a very good team today, one of the best in Europe and they are showing that. It was a tough test, we learned a lot. At half-time we were in the game but their second goal came out of the blue, the ball from Trent Alexander-Arnold and Mohamed Salah's header were unbelievable, we were kicking ourselves really because we always believed we could come back if there was one goal in it. That is the individual quality they possess, you won't see a better goal than this weekend, a real team goal.

    "It gave us mountain to climb, we had chances after that, didn't take them and the third goal I though was unfair on us. We wanted to stay in the game and have a go at them late in the match, at 2-0 that is a lot more difficult. I was pleased there were signs we could compete but it came too late. We will go away and analyse this and find a way to do better next time."

    Liverpool captain Jordan Henderson, speaking to BT Sport: "Mo Salah has been brilliant. He just has to keep it going. His work rate, he is such a big player for us, hopefully he can keep scoring for us, he can keep Harry Kane away and win the Golden Boot."

    excuse me the said agent has no connection with Wolverhampton Wanderers FC he just happens to represent a number of players & the manager who have been signed by the aforementioned football club.
    The fact that the owners of Wolves bought 20% of Jorge Mendes company prior to the influx of people represented by Mendes is pure coincidence .

    Been really impressed with AOC in recent weeks, he's starting to look like a great little player in the middle of the park. From his time at Arsenal and England, I thought he'd be a useful backup wide man for us at best, but Klopp really has developed him leaps and bounds and I feel there's much more to come too.

    Such a calm and comfortable performance today and we've been this way for a while, great feeling around the club and the players genuinely look like a close-knit group. VVD has been a huge influence with strengthening the backline, no doubt, and things seem to have clicked and confidence is snowballing from that.

    Liverpool manager Jurgen Klopp, speaking to BBC Sport: "A good performance, and very, very, very, very important after an outstanding week when everyone has been saying how good, you are into the semi-finals. Today it felt like a parade with people in their cars using the horn, wow! What happened? But we have to stay angry, we play Bournemouth, the rest was a few days ago and I said a few times our whole lives is Champions League qualification, so these games are all so important."

    Even better, he said on BT Sport 'We scored three today and Mo is claiming them all'. :emoticon-0136-giggl

    Oh **** off Neville - from where he was standing it must have seemed like it was on the line. I know my first call was that it was on the line.

    Even on replay I'd give that as a penalty.

    BTW if it's not a penalty, the triple punishment doesn't apply and it's an automatic red card for Lloris.

    When you do it in slow motion on a camera perfectly in line, you can see it's about 6 inches outside the box.

    At full speed, from behind the play and with momentum, looked a stone wall pen. Wrong decision but can't moan at the ref or lino for that.
