Liverpool FC Team Talk/Gossip/Rumours 2018 (MOD NOTE: POST #2805)

Chardee MacDennis

I think we can beat Real and Barca on our day, I think they would both provide a great game and there would be no shame in being put out by them.

Would prefer to avoid Juve, Bayern, Chelsea, and City.

LuckyLloyd

I see the draw like this:

Tier One: Teams we may be better than on paper

Sevilla
Roma

Tier Two: Teams better than us that we match up well against tactically

Bayern
Barcelona
City

Tier Three: Teams better / more experienced than us who will relish countering our style

Juve
Madrid

Who cares who it is. It is the Quarter Finals anything can happen

Cartman78

I'm just glad that we don't have to play either United or Spurs again this season :pac:

I think we have the potential to go toe to toe with nearly anyone over 2 legs but as Lloyd said, I'd be wary of the experience of Madrid and Juve

I say bring it on at this stage you have to be confident getting to the last 8, there will be no easy games no matter who you are drawn against.

Perhaps but some of those that are not easy will be easier than others..

Grayditch

But if you get a draw that suits your team's playing a bit better, you'll go further, get more money and it'll be a boost for the squad. There's no easy games. But there's easier games.

Regards the CL draw Man City is the nightmare scenario imo. I can't see us beating them over two legs, they just have too much firepower I think. I know we blitzed them recently but still only scraped the win. I think the other heavyweights left in might see us as an unknown quantity and maybe take us lightly. I want City to get Real Madrid or Barca assuming they go through.

Yeah i think you're right, don't want City. I hate playing English clubs in Europe anyway. Always prefer the continental clubs. If i could choose, it'd be Roma or Sevilla. Both tough, but very winnable.

If City get the worst draw and we get a nice one, we could be representing England in Semis.

Christ, that'd be magical

8-10

I'd argue that playing away leg first is the more important outcome of the draw than the opposition.

Ideally Sevilla or Roma for me. Its our best chance of going through and we owe Sevilla one still.

I'd rather avoid the 2 Manchester clubs.

......... Sorry I forgot. Yeah I'd rather avoid City.

The club represents nobody but Liverpool as far as I'm concerned.

Fúck the rest of the English teams.

Liverpool flags for some.

Miniature English flags for others.

This is it in its entirety, I really don’t know why fans would be hoping for the English teams to do well. **** it let them all fail, fall at the first hurdle, who cares. I’m thoroughly disappointed that United went out, but I sure as feck am not hoping Chelsea, Liverpool or City win it.

I’d actually have Bayern in the tier three under Heynckes. They are very good at observing up the pressure and their counters are some of the best in Europe.

there is no excuse for death threats, but what do you expect when you put that shon Twitter?

I'd put people who send death threats about meaningless shíte in the same bracket as people who goad and video people while driving.

Open and shut case of dumb fúcks, threatening a dumb fúck.

I feel so far detached from the entire situation, that I struggle to give the slightest shit about it.

"I worry for my ­daughter’s safety, I really do."
No, no you don't. You recording a vid while driving is proof of that.
Then jumping to the Mirror to sell your story, dragging your family into the limelight, isn't thinking about them either.

As for the death threats, laws need to be applied to deal with scum like that. To easy to get away with it. Then again, the law not going to take any more action against him; so not sure they'll follow up on this either.

Eh I'm Irish who supports a team who play in Liverpool which is in England.
I really couldn't care about representing England FFS, I just support Liverpool Football club but I'm an Irish man first and foremost and would never refer to myself as Scouse just because I do

I've no sympathy for him whatsoever. He was acting the clown on the motorway, knew what he was doing and was delighted when his daughter got spat on. Now he's banging on about death threats by putting his face out there in national newspapers, hogging the limelight.

He's as much an idiot as those 'issuing death threats' on social media, they're all playing the same gormless game.

Harry Palmr

The U19s a very frustrating to watch, a bit headless chicken.

SlickRic

a special mention to Steven Gerrard for his performance last night.

how the fúck he kept a straight face next to Scholes and Ferdinand is beyond me.

Terrible second half by Liverpool and now down in the penos shoot out

City win their keeper is a penalty saving machine by the sounds of it.

Harry Palmr

And they are out. This U18/19 side seems to be going backwards under Gerrard, the short neat game was nowhere to be seen.

Couldn't give a flying fcuk who we get, in the CL to play the best and experience great nights.

Let me qualify this by saying I've little sympathy for Carragher, he was stupid, and did a scummy thing.
However, I look forward to seeing The Scum or some other tabloid rag delving into this lads past and his private life, he's jumped into the limelight to make a fast buck, I hope a whole heap of whoop-Ass comes down on him.

Not good behaviour from people but we could all tell it was going to happen once someone got hold of his name.

What is most telling is the last line

And Andy said if he could turn the clock back, he would not shoot the footage, adding: “It has ­obviously not turned out like I wanted.”

What was he expecting to happen when releasing it? We could all see there was a potential for it to all back fire on him with what he is getting now.

I also think someone said on here on Sunday night that they hope people don't find out who is behind the camera

Grayditch

Maybe he'll be less of a cretin now. Maybe Carragher will be less of a guttersnipe, too. All's well that ends well.

I did. And that was for the girl's sake. It doesn't take much for bullies to give someone a hard time in school; she's the innocent party in all of this.

Doesn't make a whole pile of sense though. While we need another option to play up front, Werner is too good to sit on the bench and so is Firmino and Firmino's best position is definitely through the centre. Not sure how we would accommodate both of them in Klopp's system. That said I certainly wouldn't complain if he came here although you have to imagine that Bayern would be sniffing around as well.

Iused2likebusts

I have a feeling we will get Bayern and beat them.
