It was there for the taking a few weeks back, they gave it away from there. Oh I thought they lost it when they drew, for some reason an article I read said that, my bad.

MikeO Posted May 1, 2019 Report Share Posted May 1, 2019 Robbie Savage half an hour ago... "It's been all Liverpool in this second half and they are dominating. In the last attack, they had five men in the box. The Nou Camp is getting agitated." markjazzbassist 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hafnia Posted May 1, 2019 Report Share Posted May 1, 2019 In fairness it could have been much closer but Barca could have made it 4 or 5 late on. Barca should score at anfield as Liverpool will have to go for it. Barca very good on counter. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I wanted 4 to completely deflate them. The footage of the prick pushing local old men in the fountain and then pouting drinks over a random bloke in a restaurant sickened me.... scummy shitty behaviour and loads of fans stood laughing.

To be fair they gave a good account of themselves, i definitely reckon they would stay up if they played by the same rules as the rest of the football league Hafnia and MikeO 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
c1982 Posted May 2, 2019 Report Share Posted May 2, 2019 I’m glad it was only 3-0 as it keeps it competitive enough that Liverpool may still think there’s something in it for them. This will hopefully be enough of a distraction for their title challenge to derail at Newcastle on Saturday. markjazzbassist and MikeO 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

c1982 Posted May 4, 2019 Report Share Posted May 4, 2019 The amount of decisions they get from officials is scandalous! Not watched it back but wasn’t there a clear push on a Newcastle player in the box in stoppage time too? Looked it at the time anyway. If they’re not getting cheap free-kicks/missed offsides, they’re getting a Pickford, Lloris, Rico blunder! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Palfy Posted May 5, 2019 Report Share Posted May 5, 2019 The lino couldn’t have had a better view no wonder Richie got right in his face, surly players should get a retrospective booking and if a goal is scored through their cheating then a red card, it may or may not help but some form of punishment needs administering.

Even if a rule like that was brought in it would never apply to clubs like the shite. Just look at the retrospective punishment for diving!

pete0 Posted May 6, 2019 Report Share Posted May 6, 2019 Mike Dean is ref tonight, the guy who claims he's a tranmere fan but was removed from reffing Liverpool games in 2006. Yet when Leicester were challenging Spurs they removed the Leicester supporting ref off a Spurs game. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
