My point was that every club has earned their spot at this stage so equal respect needs to be shown. We've been arguably the performers of the knockouts so I don't like your suggestion that Bayern, Roma and Real will be dying to draw us in the semis. If they do think we'll be a handy number more fool them.

Roma have shown tonight again they're no mugs so you're insistence we need to draw them makes no sense. They will not be a handy number just like Bayern and Real won't be so **** it, take the most exciting tie available. Would love to draw Real next.

No it doesn't.

Real Madrid and Bayern Munich are better teams than Roma and Liverpool.

Roma have shown tonight they are no mugs. Bayern and Real have shown it for years. So I guess you are confusing people thinking Roma or Liverpool will be an easy game with people thinking Roma and Liverpool would be a more desirable draw than Real Madrid or Bayern Munich. They are not the same thing.

Liked how Mane was back on his feet looking to keep playing by time Salah scored, most players would have been rolling around looking for penalty

Would have been no point to stay down Liverpool were not getting anything from that ref

Yea you're right, I'm sure Roma would prefer Real Madrid or Bayern Munich instead. :rolleyes:

This place is beyond daft sometimes. People are losing the run of themselves.

"No team will want to play us", a love vacuous sound bite.

Roma just knocked out Barcelona, I'm sure there are some of their supporters coming out with the same rubbish but I bet if you asked the majority of Liverpool fans who they'd want to play Roma is going to be top of that list.

That's not what I meant.

I mean nobody would regard Liverpool as a handy number.

Either we, we just beat City 5-1 in the quarter finals.

Can you not just enjoy the moment instead of coming on here arguing and miserable?

Nor do I.

I am merely saying Roma is our dream draw, I am sure the feeling is mutual on their end. I'm sure Madrid or Bayern would rather get us than get each other.

PaddyWilliams · 10-04-2018 10:37pm

Assuming that top 4 is now tied up, I think it's fair to say that this season has been well beyond any of our dreams. Bonus territory from now one in. YNWA!!!!

redzerdrog · 10-04-2018 10:37pm

There was certainly times when I hoped I wouldn't see him in a Liverpool shirt again but I thought Lovren was immense tonight

DrumSteve · 10-04-2018 10:37pm

Just back from the game, managed to get a ticket outside the etihad.

Unbelievable stuff, that allez allez chant sounds amazing. Great performance from the lads.

City beating on a Liverpool fan who was in their stand and cheered with Salah scored

Headline says Liverpool fan article says there was no way to identify if he was a Liverpool fan

~Rebel~ · 10-04-2018 10:39pm

The only team I don't want is Real.

Would actually fancy us against Bayern. They've torn plenty of teams apart, but haven't been challenged yet this season - aside from PSG in the group stages, and they conceded 4 in those 2 fixtures, winning one and losing one.

After months of teams largely rolling over for them, reckon a bit of Liverpool pressing would be a serious shock to their system.

Desirable is not always necessarily good. Liverpool rose to the occasion over the last week against all odds. They seem to be prefer being underdogs.

That 5-0 feels like a million years ago now. 3 in a row against these

In my mind we have Before Virgil and After Virgil.

Before Virgil there was always the chance of spanking against a good side, now After Virgil I don't see it happening. Lose possibly, but a collapse, no.

MD1990 · 10-04-2018 10:41pm

Need to get 2 wins gainst Bournemout & West Brom so we can rest players against Stoke.

Vicxas · 10-04-2018 10:42pm

Roma would be a nightmare as they're like us. Massive momentum and desire

Osmosis Jones · 10-04-2018 10:42pm

I just don't want Real Madrid, I'll take the other two.

Was a ball of nerves and tension up until Salah scored. The relief when you realised he'd chipped it in. Jaysus lads.

Tv3 have mentioned it twice but honestly I still can't believe this will be the first time Roma have made it to the last four of the CL.

Charlie19 · 10-04-2018 10:47pm

Fair Fooks to them.

I think after tomorrow's night results it becomes, who would we rather not face on a one off.

garra · 10-04-2018 10:51pm

Delighted with the composure in the second half, the first time we strung a few passes together we score!

First half we were going too long every time, and using daft time wasting actions which only back-fire on the team's positivity.

Thanks to Guardiola for changing a great formation, I reckon that off-side goal (which wasn't offside as came off Milner) upset Pep and led to that change at half time. Such a crucial decision all round, but who's complaining eh?

Yessssssssssssss!!!!

You only posted it three minutes ago and I’ve already watched it about 40 times.

Harry Palmr · 10-04-2018 10:52pm

It was never in doubt, City huffed and puffed while Liverpool are now a model of deadly efficiency once they get the ball in the danger zone. A few good chances were always going to be carved out as City had to run themselves ragged pressing high. City's strength turned out to be their weakness.

No need for that dig. Say what you will about the lad but he gives his all every time he plays for us.

Bet Coutinho is somewhat regretful about his wish to avoid Liverpool in the CL being granted

Can you guess the last time they made it this far in the European Cup?

OwaynOTT · 10-04-2018 11:13pm

Leroy Sane, your whole body is offside

I was in an oddly zen state, knew we were going through.
I guess that's what a top top top top clas manager like Klopp does, he makes you
BELEIVE

Osmosis Jones · 10-04-2018 11:18pm

Just watched Klopp's post-game with BT and there's a really great quote from him to the players in it:

"If they want the ball from you, then they'll have to kill you"

What's the verdict on Karius after tonight's lads? The game was littered with his mistakes...

Don't recall him being shocking tbh. He might cost us yet, he always give me the impression of being a junior under-study in terms of appearance and body language, but actually doesn't "switch off" as often as dopey-faced Mig and has made a few decent stops recently.

Knex* · 10-04-2018 11:19pm

The sound of the Liverpool fans after the game from even outside the stadium. It's unreal. That's what the City fans got to listen to as they made their way home.

Serious noise from the Liverpool fans tonight.

The semi at Anfield will be epic

Harry Palmr · 10-04-2018 11:23pm

Whatever happens from here on Liverpool have a hell of a calling card for the summer transfer market.

martyos121 · 10-04-2018 11:26pm

I see we’re the only undefeated team left in the Champions League. That’s pretty cool.

Groom injury?, 'tis but a scratch.

As dodgy an all as we are at the back, we didn't give city much joy over the two legs and they threw it all at us in first half.
Most teams would have wilted.

DrumSteve · 10-04-2018 11:41pm

Actually special mention to Karius with the time wasting tonight, was excellent at slowing the game down. Also all the city fans around me were going mental due to it which was a bonus.
