Something tells me he really wanted second place
Jose's reputation comes from a history of gouging people's eyes out and generally denigrating his rivals in public. That's probably why, mate.

It is a nice achievement but I won't call it incredible or sensational. They were expected to beat Porto. They were underdogs against City but everyone acknowledged that they had a fair chance of winning the tie. It wasn't like Roma-Barcelona. They failed to beat the same Sevilla team that knocked us out. Teams with lesser budgets have reached this stage of the tournament in the past, so I don't really see how this is incredible.It's an incredible achievement. I don't think many people expected them to reach the semi finals of the Champions League. Drawing City was a disaster for them and they smashed City home and away to reach the semis. I don't think it's a shock. It is, however, sensational given the budget they have - especially when you compare it with our performance in Europe against a Sevilla team that run us ragged for 180 minutes when we we're overwhelming favourites.
Porto are no joke and City have decimated everyone on their path while winning the league with 5 matches to spare. To insinuate that they are easy opposition that Liverpool were expected to beat is just strange.
Guy is seething because West Brom didn't quit down 2-0 and let liverpool have the 3 points. What a massive fecking cnut. Clear sign that he isn't confident about his chances in the CL and is worried Spurs could take 3rd and he'll be there with no trophies again having to go play 2-legs in August to qualify for the group stages.
Fourth place don't have to go through knockouts anymore to qualify for the group's.Guy is seething because West Brom didn't quit down 2-0 and let liverpool have the 3 points.

He just says exactly what most fans are thinking instead of slipping into boring manager talk like the majority do.
If he's your manager then as a fan you love him. If he's not yours then you have the opposite view. It's that simple.
Nothing he's said today is controversial or anything. It's a brutally honest review of the game that's all.

When did that change happen? Very recently?

Watch Liverpool fans defend this. Although they defended Kenny's TShirt stint, so won't be surprise if they do defend this.
Whilst I have 5 minutes due to half time in the rugby. (Which is not going well at all if you're a Llanelli boy!)
I'm not gonna quote everyone who's quoted my post as I don't have time right now so excuse me if I fail to cover anything that was brought up with regards to what i said.
I don't think he's blamed the pitch for the result, unless I've missed that somewhere.
With regards to playing on a dry pitch in the Championship jibe, West Brom have, as is their right, set up a pitch to suit them and hinder Liverpool's passing style. Having done so, in my eyes, it's perfectly valid to bring it up in a dig at the end of the game.
Classless to some, and clearly borne out of frustration at the result, but not that big a deal as far as I'm concerned.
The other stuff he's said about a pen and a red card I'm guessing no one has a problem with so don't think I need to say anything about them.
I maintain he's like Marmite though. Your manager = Love him. Opposition manager = Hate him.
Anyway, back to the rugby for me. (Is there a praying emoji about?)

Peno in the 121st minute would be perfect, especially if there's a clamity, like a slip by the keeper or somethingI'm not sure whether I'd prefer they get dumped out by Roma 7-0 on agg, or to see Ronaldo score a penalty that shouldn't have been given in the 121st minute.

Superb manager, deflecting criticism from his players so they don't get the criticism, if only other managers knew how to do that, oh wait.
