For anyone like me who’s been clamming for the extended highlights, they’ll be on the clubs YouTube channel tomorrow at 10pm. UEFA don’t allow the club to put their own highlights up for 48 hours following the game. 

Can’t wait ??

USA VPN for this. The way Ray Hudson says look out before Schar smashes it :smitten:

“Swiss precision, Rolex could learn a thing or two from him” was my highlight

Still hard to believe that this happened to be honest, was fairly certain that nights like this were consigned to history not too long ago, as good as it has got in my lifetime and only the 5-0 against Manure really comes close for pure unbridled euphoria. Unquestionably better than the Barca 3-2 given that was ultimately a small positive while Dalglish was busy setting us on a downward trajectory.

Its a sign of our team that when it went to 3-0 you felt we could easily go on to batter them 5 or 6-0. Doesn't matter who it is or who we even have on the pitch, its just the belief we have in the team.

Just watched the highlights (again). Schar's goal is instantly iconic, but in 20 years the first one will provide a great snapshot of this team. It starts with a half-hearted press, but then PSG play the ball back to a CB again and at that moment Gordon, who had been all the way on the right because of the FK before, pushes in. Tonali has the RB covered, Isak is blocking a path to the other CB, and Longstaff and Bruno are on the CMs. In a split second it went from an innocuous situation to danger, forcing a turnover. And then I love a good rebound goal and this one is complete with Miggy's one-footedness in all its glory.

Nice to see from a man that always seems so grumpy.  I've been enjoying his villainous laugh since the takeover.  Us being decent has turned him into a big softie.  

Said this before. He’s a hilarious aside when we’re good but he’s unbearable when we’re shit. Supported Pardew until the end.

After a day of reflection I have realised that I need to make a sincere and honest apology to Liverpool fans.

They were right. We celebrated that win too much. I mean all we did was hammer PSG who has a squad of world class footballers, and possibly the best footballer in the world right now 4-1, in our first home game in the Champions League in 20 years.

That’s though is no accomplishment to their late 2nd half comeback to win against (checks notes) LASK.

 

In addition to this, they are also right that we, despite never selling a single new season ticket since before the takeover, are plastic fans.

We just can’t compare to their loyal following in Liverpudlian suburbs which have LFC official stores such as (checks notes); Belfast, Dublin, Dubai, Bangkok x2, Singapore x2, Chiang Mai, Petaling Jaya, Chonburi, Phuket, and Washington DC.

Going on like being employed by a football club is the same as national service  :lol: He literally offered out posters on here in the Southampton away end, you're way out of your depth on this one like (as well as acting like a complete dick)

Good point and you’ve reminded me that I really dislike the ‘they’ve been a loyal servant’ schtick. He was paid, like, he didn’t do it out of the goodness of his heart.

That attitude can get in the fucking bin.

 

The best bit about football is the unbridled joy a good win brings. I only watched the game on the TV but I celebrated like an absolute loon and loved every second of it.

That wasn't at Stifler, he was quoting Liverpool fans saying that, wasn't he? Previous page and CBA to go back but I was criticising the mentality, not suggesting he thought like that.

Liverpool fan taking it well.

 

"If you’ve just landed back in the country from Mars, Newcastle haven’t won fuck all. They haven’t won the Champions League, or even the UEFA Intertoto Cup. They’ve won a football match. A group match. They’re not through to anything but the TV darlings are deserving everything.
And they waved their plastic flags and they had a nice little Hello Hello  and they took their shirts off and they won a match. And they reckon their atmosphere is the best and the superlatives haven’t stopped and they did a lap of honour.
If you didn’t see the noisy PSG fans who kept shouting for their team throughout, they were stuck up in the Gods because Riyad United don’t like competition. They don’t like a level playing field and in fact they haven’t got one.
They’re at the same point we were probably in 1965 .The Racket that was produced by the Kop during the the Inter match can’t even be compared to their manufactured boistrous plastic flag waving last night.
 True they showed passion and that was to be expected but they’re like teenagers on a first date. Like the Bluenoses in their famous European night against Bayern Munic back in 1985.
 And if they’re teenagers on a first date, then we’ve been married to the competition for nearly 60 years. It’s hard for our lot to get aroused in the group stages, but beejeesus, nobody needs to teach us about passion on  the big nights. There’s no place like Anfield.
When this lot have got a few European scalps to their name and have played some important semi-finals and finals , and there’s no doubt they will with all the money they’ve got, we’ll see  what St James’s Park is like for the group stage games.
Bless them. They’re excited.  But remember, the daft gets have only won a group stage match. How can we be jealous of this lot"
