Champions League Semi Finals (26th Apr - 4th May)

[GifLord]

can someone biologically explain why city and pool players are able to sprint much more than their colleagues?

Genes?
Yesterday at least 5 city players covered more than 12km. Wonder how many pool players are gonna do it today.

 

[HookedOnAPhelan]

I hate Liverpool with every inch of my body. And absolutely everything is going their way this season, the cnuts.

 

[Theafonis]

Liverpool having their way with them. This stinks.

asthma inhalers...

Is this reflected in distance covered stats?

Could be a case of simply wanting it more.

TAA is dreadful defensively. He’s great going forward but he’s always the target for opposition teams and with good reason.

Even as I type, Villarreal break after slack defensive play by TAA. So poor.

 

[RopersReturn]

I’m

I've said it before and I'll say it again. There is something very un-natural about the fitness level of Liverpool players. This and having no injuries bar one or two is abnormal

Pretty sure they must do random dope tests in the PL, then again I’ve never heard of anyone testing positive for banned performance enhancing substances, except in Italy.

 

[PoTMS]

he’s suspect defensively, that’s why Southgate doesn’t like him, I think.

Unreal going forward though and so important to Liverpool’s set up. In terms of Right backs who are most important to their team, he’s the best in the world, but if you put him in another team with a different approach (us for example) I think he’d look quite poor

I would play him as RWB with Walker as RCB.

Squad depth

Good fitness coaching and management

Good attitude

and abit of luck because multiple injuries can hit any team at one time

 

[Neo_Mufc]

I chose to not watch the game. Couldn't face the torture.

 

[VinzentFTW]

They really don’t. They play very effective football and it obviously works. But a lot of it is just getting it out wide and crossing it or long balls . As I say though, very effective and they’re a very very good team. The bastards

.

And high press and extreme tempo. Dont think you find better fotball in todays game beside maybe City. All though City on an rare off day is very boring

I once had a shirt that read ‘Breathe if you hate Liverpool.’ It was well received.

They'd be at this stage of the comp regardless, but their path to the final is going to be one of the easiest anyone's had in recent years.

 

[Godfather]

Mane is so good

 

[Dave Smith]

TAA needs to be in that England first XI come the World Cup. He's too good not to start.

England don't play like the Dippers which exposes his defensive skills. He is a great player but James is more rounded.

 

[United Hobbit]

BT are so biased towards them as well

source?

Yeah I think we give up on complimenting them and all just hate them unconditionally.

 

[PoTMS]

Was Red Clive ever this bad for us?

Also having the ball is a lot less tiring than not having it.

 

[United Hobbit]

Imagine our players running that much...

 

[RedC]

It is honestly baffling how fit the Liverpool players are.

 

[moses]

Mane is so good

Temp ban if you keep that type of language up.

 

[Cheech Wizard]

What's with all the Spurs rejects they've signed? Spurs Villareal's feeder club.

 

[VivaRonaldo85]

Liverpool having their way with them. This stinks.

Now resting players for the weekend with 110 minutes of a CL semi final to go. That’s how easy this is for them. How the feck have A) Villarreal got this far and B) do Liverpool always seem to draw these teams?!

 

[2 man midfield]

Diaz is exactly the sort of player we need. So annoying

 

[PoTMS]

Estupido should've been off a long time ago.

 

[RedDevil@84]

simply wanting it more.

Hi Ole's coaching guidebook.

 

[Guy Incognito]

Yes, they have a system and it works. Last season they had a dip but always felt Klopp could squeeze one more title out of this squad.

They'll have their bad moments though.

 

[RopersReturn]

Yawn, watching teams get pulled to pieces by Liverpool and City is the equivalent of having to endure Steven Hendry & Steve Davis clean up in the snooker 30yrs ago

 

[DJ_21]

Safe to say the Spanish teams have gone awful. Athletico Madrid having 0 shots at city and likewise for villareal against these scousers!

 

[groovyalbert]

Haha to be fair, yes

 

[TheRedHearted]

I wouldn’t count Madrid out, and also I’m late here but wasn’t Mane offside?

 

[SilentWitness]

It is honestly baffling how fit the Liverpool players are.

They're definitely getting through a loophole somewhere as it's not human.

 

[Stretfordender786]

Our treble season about to be topped. We’ll have nothing left to shove in rival fans faces anymore

Now resting players for the weekend with 110 minutes of a CL semi final to go. That’s how easy this is for them. How the feck have A) Villarreal got this far and B) do Liverpool always seem to draw these teams?!

 

[groovyalbert]

Safe to say the Spanish teams have gone awful. Athletico Madrid having 0 shots at city and likewise for villareal against these scousers!

Yet we still make them look like they're playing in their prime. I would honestly expect us to struggle against the bottom of La Liga. Absolute liability against those sides.

Villarreal shouldn't be playing a CL semis to start with. It is a miracle that Bayern aren't there.

 

[groovyalbert]

How's that not a booking?

 

[GledTheRed]

He's an absolute cringe monster....and twat.

A massive cnut.

 

[PoTMS]

Yet we still make them look like they're playing in their prime. I would honestly expect us to struggle against the bottom of La Liga. Absolute liability against those sides.

I wouldn't use us as a metric in terms of strength of our respective leagues. I'd wager we'd get beat by half the Championship in our current guise.
