Barcelona vs Liverpool - Champions League (Semi Final - 1st Leg)
We didn't play badly we were just unlucky with the result. Yes there were things that we could have done differently but you play that game 100 times then 99 times the result is closer
We definitely wouldn't lose 300-0 on aggregate so totally agree
Couldn't post last night I was so gutted, you can't legislate for that freekick. Barca were really good and I don't remember seeing Messi that motivated often. The team is great, I one thing I'm sure of is that Klopp will address any weaknesses in the summer. After Real Madrid we got in Alisson, Fabinho and Keita, next summer I'd love another full back, another forward and maybe a creative midfielder if there is any change left.
* The above is posted in my opinion. Feel free to disagree.
0-0 old Trafford, 1-1 home to Leicester when Man City dropped points, 0-0 Goodison. Missing the chance to go 10 points clear. Only team to lead the PL at Christmas but not win x3
Oh just **** off! We've lost one game in the league all season and have 91 points.
I'm going to put the nonsense you're spouting down to the emotions of the game.
You appear to have lost your way and found yourself on a Liverpool forum.
Gutted last night obviously. I really felt we could get something out of the game. Listened to all the prematch build up, Durham on TalkSport saying we'd be out of it after the first leg (and I can't stand that wind up merchant) and he was right...
It just feels like such a long hard season with expectation building all the way, and suddenly we're on the cusp of bugger all again. We've been in the fight for so long that to come away with nothing is just so deflating. Such a downer.
I think we will beat them in Anfield but hard to see them not scoring when we have to be so progressive and go for it. The other thing is Barca can literally rest that whole starting 11 for the Celta game as their is over whereas we have to go full tilt vs Newcastle. 3-1 would have gave us a good chance but we needed that away goal and we had 5 glorious chances to get it.
The performance did not mirror the result, imo we are a better team than Barca and carved them open several times just without the end product. We missed Trent & Bobby badly. The balance Trent provides with him and Robbo on each side is clear as daylight. Gomez had a nightmare, not his position, not particularly at fault for the goals and not started a game since December.... he got roasted the whole game and doesn't have the tools to get forward. Barca made the change and doubled up on Robbo's side, they knew Gomez wasn't going to get forward and if he did the delivery is just not there. Not Joe's fault but I would have rathered rest Trent at Newcastle... I thought it was an a banker that would happen. The Gini experiment was a bit of a disaster.. he was anonymous.
Thought Robbo and Matip were outstanding, Mane and Mo had a good gamea, approach play, strength and pace but end product was poor.Not great night for Milly, Fab & Virgil imo.
I'm still trying to work out how we lost 3 nil to be honest. **** it stings, we are not used to it.
Agree on Virgil. Showed signs of being human last night. Just read Klopps interview, he also summed it up well.
“No one will be interested but a few football nerds because it is about the result and we lost 3-0, but I can work really good with this game. I will use it for ever to show the boys what is possible. It was a brave performance, very passionate, very lively. I liked the game but it doesn’t really help.”

“Very smart people will come out and say ‘yeah, if you would have won against Leicester you would be champions’. It’s all bull****. People and idiots bring something like this up”.
