Massive credit to Liverpool fantastic game, I don’t normally get exited watching other teams than my own but that game was different.

Every player with the exception of Shakiri was brilliant, hope Spurs show that much commitment tomorrow.

Off the match, early goal would be great but not too important, dont need to be gung ho from the start. Its a massive mountain to climb tonight but i believe in our boys even without the 1 season wonder 😉

That was a proper performance from a top side against arguably Europe’s best. I’m goosed. Goodnight.

Sometimes the players do care and show their emotions

Just truest amazing bunch of players under the guidance of a brilliant man and manager

It was also nice of Suarez to keep his promise to not to celebrate at Anfield

Blimey...UEFA will be changing the rules if we have Three out four euro finalists from here (spurs always let you down)

Expect some skullduggery ...

Well done Liverpool....loved that corner

For years you mocked Wenger and Arsenal for finishing top 4 with your famous “do you get a trophy for that?” line.

I tried to tell you that money teams have made it very difficult to win the league and that top 4 is a decent accomplishment.

But as you, Stu and others keep saying it’s all about trophies so yes it would be a another failure season for Klopp.

Ironically, Klopp keeps celebrating playing well and winning games and seems content going along like that despite picking up any silverware. Some fans are more than happy to watch great football and to be up there competing and if you win something then that’s a bonus. Seems like this is Klopps philosophy too.

But most fans ( and Arsenal have them too) have unrealistic expectations and are inpatient, and if they don’t win then the manager must be changed and half of the team needs to be replaced.

I wonder how good United might have been by now had they stuck with Moyes? 🤔

"Another failure season for Klopp..."

Methinks thou spoketh too soon.

The Liverpool result perfectly highlights the importance of both the team and the squad. Liverpool sold Philippe Coutinho and became a better more effective team. Coutinho scored some magnificent goals for Liverpool but was quite inconsistent. Messi and Ronaldo cannot win trophies purely on their own.

Credit where credit is due great performance from Liverpool,don’t want Spurs to win because Liverpool will win the final comfortably.

Greatest comeback EVER. They couldn't win two trophies could they?

Sure about that? I thought Barca's comeback v PSG in the second leg is right up there!

 

[Kellfire]

Football, Bloody 'ell.

 

[Fade and Die]

Although i cannot stand Liverpool (although i like Klopper) Hats off to them last night, unbelievable performance, a night to remember for all that saw it. Well done.

Greatest comeback EVER. They couldn't win two trophies could they?

Not for me. They won a match over 90 mins by one more goal than they got beat in a previous 90 mins match. Liverpool’s final comeback was far better for me. Newcastle 4-0 down to arsenal and came back in 20 minutes for a draw for me was better. Utd weren’t they 3 down at half time against spurs and came out 5-3 winners. I am far from taking anything away from what happened last night but best comeback ever, sorry not for me

It’s not even the greatest comeback in Liverpool’s CL history 👍😀

Has anyone seen the womens world cup squad announcement. Each player getting an individual announcement (Steph Houghton by Prince William) https://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/live/football/48189116

Seems a very clever way of giving each player their moment and to get some attention towards the womens squad and their world cup campaign. I just hope Phil Neville and the team can surpass the mens side. Scotland, Argentina and Japan in their group so not an easy passage but ranked 3rd in the world and hope they can do well

I appreciate this is self indulgent, but skip to 1:11 of this video......give that ball boy a crisp fiver.

You need to take into account opposition, and the importance of the match. To be the greatest come back you also need to win the game in my opinion.







Therefore Arsenal’s come back from 4-0 down to beat my boys 7-5 in league cup must be the greatest comeback.

Whilst it helped massively. Let's be honest that's his job. The genius was all TAA

Champions League runs a multi-ball system so pretty standard, perhaps Piers has forgotten that!

 

[jp5]

Has to be one of the best games I've ever seen. Knew they couldn't concede and shut out one of the best attacking teams in the world, and got 4 goals without 2 of their star front line. Just wow. Have to give it to Liverpool, they got Klopp in at the right time and gave him their backing. It's everything I wanted to see Arsenal do. Now Liverpool need to make the most of this era and win trophies.

Complete neutral as far as the PL clubs are concerned so I can be objective and say......

Bloody Hell! That was impressive.

Have to admit that I didn't give them a chance, particularly when I heard Salah and Firminho were out so it's even more impressive.
