Spartak Moscow v Liverpool Match Thread CHAMPIONS LEAGUE

[FoxForceFive]

This lot remind me of us a bit tbh. They look very poor when we attack, they're almost incapable of intercepting the ball when passed through their midfield, but in possession they look pretty adept at moving the ball up the pitch & decent in the final third too.

Captain forwards?

Is he anchoring the midfield or is Can doing it?
And I'll believe it when I see it.

Don't let the red kit bamboozle you. 😉 We're better than they are. Question is whether we can prove it.

 

[darkstarexodus]

Seville up, as are Madrid, Napoli, Porto and Besiktas.

 

[Judge Jules]

Tottenham aren't. Apoel Nicosia nearly scored against them just now.

Hendo is. Can mostly out towards the right

 

[hmmmmm1]

The free kick they scored from looks worse every time you see it. Absolutely dreadful from karius

 

[darkstarexodus]

Brilliant first time ball from Hendo and Firmino should have scored.

 

[IGotALuvlyBunchOfCoconuts]

Unlucky Firmino.

 

[FoxForceFive]

FFS Firmino!

Great ball that though, phenomenonal from Hendo.

Shoulda kept my trap shut. Kane scores.

 

[manwithnoname]

Incredible ball in from Hemderson. Unfortunately it's Firmino on the end of it, so obviously misses

 

[hmmmmm1]

What a miss again from frim.

 

[manwithnoname]

Unlucky Firmino.

Unlucky? Hahahahahaha!

 

[FoxForceFive]

Oh we're definitely the better side, but the similarities are there for sure.

 

[Modo]

Looks like Henderson got his shit together.

 

[hmmmmm1]

Frim doing a can

 

[FoxForceFive]

Nothing I have seen so far has changed my opinion that Sturridge should have played instead of Firmino.

 

[davud graham]

It looks like Firmino is having one of his drunken spastic games tonight

 

[FoxForceFive]

Looks like Henderson got his shit together.

High praise indeed! 😉

 

[FoxForceFive]

Great interception from TAA, just unlucky more didn't come of it.

 

[Shay_K]

We need a goal to make them chase the game.

 

[IGotALuvlyBunchOfCoconuts]

Unlucky? Hahahahahaha!

Well, didn't except the defender to miss that. He probably should have anticipated it.

 

[FoxForceFive]

Well, didn't except the defender to miss that. He probably should have anticipated it.

He didn't cos he's not an actual striker. That situation is the EXACT reason I gave in the pre match thread for sturridge starting instead.

 

[Judge Jules]

What a waste.

 

[FoxForceFive]

Oh fucking hell, good job that was offside cos otherwise that'd have been embarrassing missing that.

 

[manwithnoname]

Well, didn't except the defender to miss that. He probably should have anticipated it.

It's almost as if he's not a very good striker

 

[IGotALuvlyBunchOfCoconuts]

Wow. Great counter but some poor touches/decisions.

 

[hmmmmm1]

What a waste, taa should have slipped salah in

 

[keniget]

Should've been a goal that.
