Liverpool v Atlético Madrid - Match Thread - CHAMPIONS LEAGUE

[Donavan Ried]

Well back to level, which mean ALT Madrid have to come out more

 

[Raz]

This 1st half performance is exactly why we are winning the league. Lovely 45 mins. Back at it.

 

[Shadey]

All set for a cracking 2nd half.

 

[hmmmmm1]

We made the possession count. Wini turning up for a big game. The game is in the balance. A 10 minute spell of pressure in the second half could be the difference

 

[manwithnoname]

Just need my constant slagging of 'No Goals Bobby' to work now.

Although that's probably asking for too much

 

[Fabio]

Ox and Salah have been possessed.

Mane a bit sloppy

Firmino doing exactly what's expected. Keeping their defence busy while not really looking like scoring

 

[Modo]

Ghost? More like ghostface killah...

 

[Donavan Ried]

Just want to see us come out and blitz them for the first twenty minutes in the second half, get their heads reeling

 

[Fabio]

Best performance in a while a way so far

Entirely down to hendo?

 

[tomasjj]

Great work from Ox for the goal. And what a header.
We have been good. More goals in this one.

 

[Donavan Ried]

Best performance in a while a way so far

Entirely down to hendo?

Has made a real difference

 

[manwithnoname]

Best performance in a while a way so far

Entirely down to hendo?

Well, he's certainly an improvement on Fabinho, but Salah and Chamberlain have also been immense, and TAA has been typically wonderful

And another vital European goal from Wijnaldum

 

[Modo]

Best performance in a while a way so far

Entirely down to hendo?

In all fairness, he hasn't been that influential today. That's my take on it.
Everyone is playing on a different level today.

 

[Squiggles]

This a great game of football. Both teams playing well, great atmosphere, pantomime villians, big tackles, fast paced, wet pitch, mad managers. It's got the lot.

Brilliant cross and header for the goal. Moment of real quality

 

[Y1]

Great game. More please Red men! YNWA.

 

[manwithnoname]

Still need to score a couple more please, so that's where we need Salah and Mane

 

[Farkmaster]

This a great game of football. Both teams playing well, great atmosphere, pantomime villians, big tackles, fast paced, wet pitch, mad managers. It's got the lot.

Yeah, another couple goals for us and a win, and I think I'll be able to enjoy everything you've just listed.

 

[Farkmaster]

Still need to score a couple more please, so that's where we need Salah and Mane

You've given up on Firmino?

Mané has always been a bit sloppy but that’s part of why he’s so dangerous. He can miscontrol the ball somehow it sends the defender the wrong way and he scores.

 

[MomoWASright]

You've given up on Firmino?

He has been shite for months though.

 

[manwithnoname]

You've given up on Firmino?

It would be just typical if he made me eat my words by scoring his first goal at Anfield for a year

 

[FoxForceFive]

Mané has always been a bit sloppy but that’s part of why he’s so dangerous. He can miscontrol the ball somehow it sends the defender the wrong way and he scores.

Yeah, he's inconsistent, but also inconsistently a genius. It's mad.

 

[Modo]

We need two more

 

[manwithnoname]

Properly Pissing it down now.

 

[MomoWASright]

We need two more

I agree.

 

[MomoWASright]

Properly Pissing it down now.

In the north west of England? Well I never.

 

[FoxForceFive]

We need two more

Well technically, we need one more. However I think for everyone's hearts & health, two more would be much more reassuring.

 

[Modo]

Defensive work by Mane has been outstanding

 

[MomoWASright]

Salah should’ve done better.

 

[Shadey]

Never thought I’d love another captain like Gerrard but Henderson is getting close.
