No disrespect obviously intended at all. I'm sure no offence was intended like, but it was still incredibly crass. Particularly when the club were as involved as they were.

joeyt Posted May 30, 2022 Share Posted May 30, 2022 To be honest I was more focusing on the 'no other fans would be there after Saturday' angle I'd be drunk for weeks if we won the FA Cup even if we lost another final that season Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Geordie Ahmed Posted May 30, 2022 Share Posted May 30, 2022 23 minutes ago, Flip said: It is. But despite all the making fun of Liverpool because they lost the two major titles, people have to acknowledge that their season has been unbelievable. Will be interesting to see how they do the next 1-2 years. After all, they've managed to replace players in all major positions, but their two most prominent players for the past few years are possibly gone next year or so. How will they replace both of them? Or will they do everything now to keep Salah? It has been an incredible season but not sure history will be kind to it, it's a domestic cup double, that's the end result. Already we have people analysing (and rightly so) how they failed to beat any of the top 4 and didn't score a goal in 3 of the finals. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Prophet Posted May 30, 2022 Share Posted May 30, 2022 This Liverpool team are incredible: 92 points, 69 poonts, 99 points, 97 points, 75 points for the last five years are ridiculous returns. The fact that they've only won one league title in that time shows the insane standards that City have set. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Things move on don't they not celebrating good times over somthing that happened 37 years ago just doesn't sit right with me tbh. If they'd have won the champions league final that would be been the best time to celebrate and have a parade. No disrespect or offence at all really other than for people who look to be offended.

If that's how you feel, fair enough I know exactly what their reaction would have been (rightly in my opinion) if the shoe was on the other foot though.

Gallowgate Toon Posted May 30, 2022 Share Posted May 30, 2022 Liverpool obviously have a very good team but I thought it was pretty noticeable how pedestrian their midfield looked against a smart (but getting on a bit) midfield once the top 3 were kept relatively at bay. Thiago had a good spell in the first half where he was dictating rhythm but, outside, of that, I thought they lacked someone with intent to break lines, change tempo, and get in the box. I guess Keita was meant to do that but he falls into a similar bracket as being someone tidy & effective rather than an explosive difference maker.

They are apparently after Tchouameni from Monaco, and so it looks like something they will be trying to address this summer. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

If he can't keep his body in shape for his professional career (which needs it) how can we trust his mind is still in good shape. He's having a super-mare. He had a fucking nightmare refereeing our game against Liverpool a couple of weeks ago. Anyway, the fat cunt is retiring now. Well, he's going to be operating VAR.

1964 Posted May 30, 2022 Share Posted May 30, 2022 Classic deflection from the French, industrial scale fraud with no evidence, crowd disturbances with no evidence, thousands of ticketless fans with no evidence. The only evidence I've seen are a few liverpool fans going through a barrier and climbing a wall outside the ground, and French police pepper spraying and tear gassing people standing behind a fence Don't let them convince you otherwise and turn fans against fans, this was an organisational problem Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest HTT II Posted May 30, 2022 Share Posted May 30, 2022 My mate was over their with his wife and kid and he said it was chaos, yes fans without tickets, including French people and Madrid fans, people with fake tickets, but the access to the stadium was shocking, at times dangerous and whenever any LFC fan complained they were met with indifference or brutality. Thankfully they got in (late) and got in and out safe. He said the whole experience was a shit show in terms of organisation. He also said there was no fighting between the two sets of fans or French or police from what he could gather. I dislike LFC and a portion of their fanbase, but footy fans get a raw deal in general. Compare to other ‘entertainment’ events like music, Formula 1 etc… Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
The College Dropout Posted May 30, 2022 Share Posted May 30, 2022 No bigger indictment of the Liverpool midfield than Toni Kroos completing 90 minutes. In each KO tie Kroos has come off because he had been over-run and outplayed but here Kroos did what he wanted for 90 minutes. Henderson did Henderson things. Ultimately not a danger when on the ball. Thiago - think he was carrying an injury. Was very poor. Didn't play those passes through the lines that he's brought in for. Keita played nervously when he came on. I think ultimately a Klopp midfield is going to lack a bit of guile unless they can spot the monsters. I think Fede Valverde is a monster. He doesn't have that guile but he's able to carry the ball through midfield. But it's rare you get an 8 with tremendous physical prowess to get through the running, the work rate and the guile. Seedorf, KDB but you can't think of many. I guess prime Lampard and Gerrard give you that. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
