Champions League 2018/2019

Indignant Liverpool fans are just the best.

Managed to watch extended highlights of the PSG-Liverpool game. It looked like the Scousers got shown up, especially in the first half.

If PSG turned up I fully expected that to happen. Surprised at a fair number of people I spoke to thinking Liverpool would win.

Their new found squad depth is pulling the wool over a lot of eyes because they are winning most weeks in the League because of it. They're nothing all that special 1 to 11. To a lesser degree, it was a similar story with City last season, and this to be honest.

Squad depth doesn't count for too much when you face proper teams in the Champions League.

What's odd about Liverpool is it seems Klopp has reined them in, despite them having a strong defense this year. The speed at which and frequency they got forward last year was their largest strength. Now they've muted that in favor of more control, but none of their forwards nor their midfield seem fit for a slower approach.

Plus they're playing Henderson again 😆

PSG weren't even that good, Mbappé and Cavani especially were poor. PSG at 100% would put five past Liverpool

Verratti was a class above Pool's midfield. Granted he should have been sent off for that horror challenge, but it's a bit rich seeing the scousers still complain about it considering how dirty and regressive they themselves played all game.

Ok, I’m sold on Dembele.

jones

Took you long enough

FEBravo

Van dijk with a leg breaker and only gets a yellow. cunts

jones

That embarrassing co-commentator insists there was nothing wrong with the tackle. Mertens leg was bending badly

Claudius

So the refs will let Pool break their opponents tonight? Incredible.

i mean he seems great (and hes a god on FIFA) but is he actually really good? how much would he cost?

Ospina 😆

literally dives out of the way.

jones

Fucking Ospina you idiot

Klaus

I was angry when we loaned him out for free to Napoli with a £3 million buyout clause, but at this stage I just hope they activate it.

Claudius

Inter are even Spursier than the real deal. Useless club

He's very good and seems a real big game player. Don't know how much he would cost though.

Serves Napoli right. They turned up and played like a small club. Huddersfield at least pressed us on Saturday and tried to disrupt what we were doing.

Napoli sat back and were hoping to defend for 90 minutes. The way they were playing the goal was always going to come.

To be fair they're playing a makeshift defence, Maksimovic a centre half at RB and Rui isn't even half the player Ghoulam is.

Still wonder if they shouldn't have started with Milik and brought Mertens on later
