Let me get this straight. Being 3 down to Barcelona was flattering but us being retarded against Madrid and being 3 down isn’t flattering? And because of that you’ll decide to slave away, making someone else richer and get yourself a kebab instead of watching us?
 
I think we will win the tie. Very glad away goals is not a thing. We can defo score, it's about finding a way to sit deeper when we need to

If the alternative you're forcing my eyes onto is Eastenders then yes, already seen us suffer enough embarrassing defeats for 1 year and we've not even hit April fools.....but I respect you and others tolerance levels in the pain threshold department.
 
Not interested in shouldv'e couldv'e would've.

They pulled our pants down and slapped us 5-2.
Behave.. Real did to us.. what we did to Utd.

They got all the breaks.. and took every chance they got more or less.

2nd half we were poor.. just like Utd were against us.
 
The problem is can we see us keeping a clean sheet away to Real? If we concede we need to score 4 maybe 5.

If we score first then obviously I'll start believing, and it will be the hope that kills you.

Exactly, what we did to Utd was pull their pants down and wellied them.

It doesn't matter if you get 5 chances and score 5 or get 20 chances and score 5, the end result is the same.

We completely switched off and became naive from 20 mins onwards...didn't learn our lesson to not leave Vini in a 1 on 1 v Trent and went downhill from there.
 
For which goal?

Tbh I don't really want to reminisce in the fear of deterioration of mental health, what happened is done, as Klopp would say we can't change that...we can only focus on tonight and going some way to putting things right which would commence with the players understanding the magnitude of the competition they're playing in as well as the team they're playing against thus putting in some fucking effort.
 
The first which started the downfall.

We need to go out and play at a high level and give it our all. Whatever will be will be. The stars may align and we score 8 from 8 chances playing the game in their half. Or just win 4-1 and do them on pens.
 
Don’t worry lads - I made the mistake of not getting up for the Barca game - so I’ll get up for this one tomorrow.

So we’re definitely losing.
 
Honestly and sadly, I wasn't. I had an all day meeting and made no attempt to get out of it. As my phone started buzzing relentlessly during the back half of my meeting I was wondering wtf was going on.

Shame on me.

I'm working today too fwiw.

I was at the Barca game when we lost 3-0.
It was the strangest game - I felt we really should have been leaving with a win.
I remember on the way to the airport with my father in law, he asked me, "so what happens in the return leg?"
I answered, more in frustration than anything else, "I think we can beat them 4-0"
He obviously brought this up immediately at the game's end two weeks later.
 
------------------Nunez--------------------
Jota------------Gakpo----------Salah
--------Fabinho-------Milner------------
--Robertson-VVD-Konate---Trent---
-------------------Ali-------------------------

Given the midfield shambles, I would just lump 4 forwards on and pray. Anything to stop Keita playing against Real Madrid.
Yep. We can't compete in midfield anyway, so no point in flooding it with mediocrity. We may as well flood the top of the pitch, where we do actually have some quality. Fabs and Milner to provide protection to the back four and Trent and VVD to ping the ball to our forwards. Gakpo to drop deep and try to progress the ball quickly. Hopefully we can score five before they realise what the fuck's going on.

With a lot of help from Ali and a terrible deflection. 2-3 would've been fairer and meant we were still in the tie.

Everyone looks at the goals they may have scored and said they dominated us but we could've been out oi sight before HT.
 
I completely forgot that the away goals aren't a thing anymore
Don't they become a thing at the end of extra time?

E.g. if we are 3-0 up at end of normal time it goes into extra time, the if we end up 4-1 Real win, if we win 6-3 we go through and if it's 5-3 it gives to pens?

Or did I just dream that up?

I think they're out of the picture completely mate
