Lol. Always fun when a totally unlikely bet comes through. How much did you win?Before the game. Just a bet for fun. Full lottery.
Champions League Semi Finals (24th April - 2nd May)
- Thread starter Samid
- Start date
Roma were one goal away from making it very very interesting. Don't think they've got a chance now though.
Yeah if he plays 4-3-3 from the start this is probably a 3-2 or 2-1 result. Liverpool will be swarmed the first 15-20 minutes in Rome, we’ll see how they cope.
Salah, Ronaldo or Lewandowski. The numbers men..lets hope its one of the latter who make the telling contribution.
I want Madrid to win it anyway and as much as I'd love it to happen I don't see Roma going through, I probably won't even bother watching the 2nd leg.
Madrid will beat them.
Surely?
Surely?
I hope Real or Munich win it so we don't have to deal with every scouser for the next year. And I know he did not win the UCL yet. But he improved every player they have in Liverpool. Made great difference for them with their players quality and budget its really impressing he reaches the final.
My point hear who everybody is missing, our manager came up with stupid argument to justify our exit, his excuses about the heritage cant be applied on Liverpool nor Roma if one of them reach the final. We play turbid football. We have quality players in almost every position but still failed to give a decent performance in the champions league.
It’s still over, Liverpool will score out there.
Real have been much better in the CL than in the league, and Ronaldo is still 'Mr Champions league' this season. I don't see Liverpool's shaky defense containing him. Bayern have a lot of experience as well.
I was talking about the semifinal draw exclusively.
I still can't get over how appalling Roma were.
What the feck was that?

Imagine if anyone in Europe could actually defend...
I know hardly a standout performance but Nainggolan is a great player to watch. One of my dream signings for United
Klopp would have expected Roma to come out and defend with their lives. Roma manager outsmarted Klopp by doing the opposite
No way Roma can do it again (prove me wrong, boys).
You said that Klopp is a better manager than Mourinho. Despite being demonstrably wrong.
The only Roma player to come out of this match looking half-decent. Nice floated pass for Dzeko's goal and his shot let to the penalty.
Great result in isolation but what a deflating last 10 minutes!
Will say that whilst Lovren will rightly get the blame for the 1st goal, the really issue with regards to Liverpool being unable to see games out lies in the midfield for me. Just totally unable to put a foot on the ball, slow the game down and just kill it off.
5-2 should be enough, and I know Barca probably thought the same, but with our pace on the counter I will be amazed not to score in Rome.

You have to admire him , he has gone out to blow the opposition away and as a result will at least make the champions lge final , he has really moved Liverpool on , created a fantastic team spirit , the players love him,the fans love him,Christ I hate Liverpool but even I love him.
Hopefully Ronny will do them in the final but I wouldn’t bet on it,because they will scare Madrid’s defence to death.
So annoyed that it takes Liverpool and City our worst enemies to show us how to play in Europe , play with no fear let the opposition worry about you and pace scares defenders, how I wish we could play this way
Liverpool's defense gives me hope of a turnaround but it is highly unlikely. Hope Bayern or Real do the business.

Klopp cried about long balls all season, so he can suddenly and surprisingly unleash the long ball tactics.
Roma was a disaster to watch. Gave Liverpool a final on a silver plate.
Can Liverpool beat Real or Bayern in the final? That's the question now.

It was only one month ago when Mourinho completely nullified Klopp and Salah on Old Trafford and won 2-1. Mourinho hadn't lost to Klopp at all since moving to United, 1 win and 3 draws. Let's also not forget that in these 4 games Liverpool had scored 2, yes 2 fecking goals against us, a penalty and an own goal.
I don't like suicide football.
Prefer managers who can adapt games according to the opposition.
This is so stupid to mention, why should I support Liverpool when I support united for 32 years. Every year I travel thousands of miles to watch my beloved team and you are questioning my loyalty as a supporter to the club just because I don't like our manager. Off course Mourinho is more successful than Klopp, but Klopp at the moment offer much more for his team, our manager has lost his mojo and I don't think he is that special anymore as everybody thinks. People must learn to accept and respect other opinions.
Mate. I don't even know where to begin, but comparing the trophy hauls of the 2 managers, shows that Klopp cannot even be mentioned in the same breath as Jose.
After Klopp has one several more league titles and actually won the CL, then he can be.
And to suggest that Klopp is better?
And some advice: for your own sanity and well being, go support Liverpool and Klopp. You'll be a lot happier.
And these are facts!
I'm glad I decided to skip the match and watch a movie, this is nauseating.
Not at all, Jose' record compared to Baldy and Klopp is clear indication that having only a plan A is not the best idea when it comes to the CL.
He lined 3-5-2 against Liverpool's aggressive 4-3-3, made it very easy for Klopp
You know Liverpool are very lethal on counter and after a perfect first 25 minutes you all out gun blazing, allowing Liverpool to play their favourite game? fecking naive from Roma . Liverpool still managed to feck it up a bit though 
. Liverpool still managed to feck it up a bit though has got quick feet too, honestly ideal for out Midfield
It’s not suicide football if you win !
Too many people,managers,players forget that above all football is supposed to be a ( very expensive ) entertainment business, far too many dull games with teams playing not to lose or score on the break.Klopp and Liverpool should be applauded for going for it and reaping the rewards
So how was the new Avengers?
And you base this on?? Gut feeling??
Why are we in 2nd place in the league if Jose has completely lost it?
But why though?
Why set up with a high line against Liverpool? It's basic coaching to know not to do that. Did he not do any analysis of Liverpool?
Glimmer of hope by Roma going into the second leg. Can they pull off another 3-0 win? Only time will tell.
I still think so, yes at the moment he is a better manager and he would have been a perfect fit to us. I dont think bringing the previous trophies make much difference cause at the end what matters is winning the league and the champions league at their current clubs what matters and at the moment Klopp has a good chance of winning the UCL.
If I was Di Francesco I would be ringing up Jose tomorrow
I think because it worked against Barcelona he didn't want to change it but Barca and Liverpool are two totally different teams
As soon as he made the changes and went to a 4-3-3 I think it was Liverpool couldn't handle them
I really really really dont think that is a good thing nor that it will happen, as he has sort of a free role. The less space Salah has the better. Our own Ashley young anal-marked him very close, and he was invisible after that.
All that needs to be said.
We have quality players, we spent much more than the other clubs behind us, you cant compare our players to Liverpool can't you?
