Rubin Kazan (A): Post Match

[Leyton388]

With Klopp as manager I think we'll be going all out to win this. About time we had a manager who takes Europe seriously.

Despite what people say it's a great trophy to win and more so now with a CL place up for grabs.

****ing love klopp.

Yeah......you can't argue with the away win in Europe, but we do need to show some more ruthlessness, especially against poor sides, and Rubin are pretty bad to be sure, but with no injuries (assuming Milner is OK) and a turn in the group, its a decent evening's work.
Didn't like the way we have away a few too many stupid fouls as we eased off the game, as a better side could punish that.

Good performances from Ibe, Clyne and Firmino, if more than a bit wasteful at times.

Ruben are not a bad side....we are the first english club to win there

They are. But you still need to beat them, so job done. It's the sort of game we'd probably have lost in the death throws of Rodgers, but if you actually do the basics and impose yourself on weaker opposition, you're greater quality will tell.
Klopp has us doing that.

[Fosterbloke]

he could have explained that though.

I thought it was quite obvious, I'll explain next time.

Some dude on the tram just asked me if I played rugby.

He must have noticed your oddly-shaped ball.

Total domination of a game in a hostile away environment (Rubin laid on free transport for fans to ensure a full stadium - it was a record attendance). As the game wore on I felt less anxiety about conceding even though they just needed one to change the complexion of the group. And that's with Lovren playing.

Looking forward to how we handle our other old nemesis: Palace. Shame that game's not live, I bet streams are dried up too as everyone will be concentrating on Ars v Spurs.

Great performance & right call on the line up. We can't afford to not take this seriously when there's a CL spot up for grabs, never minds a decent trophy.

[DannyMan2006]

Oh, and we ever do make the CL again it'd be helpful for the coefficient if we progressed to the latter stages. Bigger bonus if we win - automatically seeded in the CL too.
