    This Coutinho kid... how much?

    1. Dr Van Nostrand
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 8 Years
      4 years, 10 months ago

      1 Allison and 1 Van Dijk

  2. It’s gonna Ben Mee
    • 10 Years
    4 years, 10 months ago

    That last goal though... Very clever and skilful by TAA. Amazing!

    1. Brosstan
      • 9 Years
      4 years, 10 months ago

      Yes but more so horrible by Barca. No excuse for that kind of absent mindedness at a crucial moment

      1. It’s gonna Ben Mee
        • 10 Years
        4 years, 10 months ago

        Nobody expects the English inquisition

    2. Don Kloppeone
      • 6 Years
      4 years, 10 months ago

      He totally did them with that. Pretending to run away. Absolute bolshy genius. And Origi’s reactions to finish it. 😀

      1. Wild Rover
        • 13 Years
        4 years, 10 months ago

        He wasn’t pretending, he was leaving it for Shaq but saw an opportunity. Quality

        1. Don Kloppeone
          • 6 Years
          4 years, 10 months ago

          Do you think? It looked deliberate and Lineker etc were saying how clever he was for doing it

          1. HamezMace
            • 9 Years
            4 years, 10 months ago

            Trent post match said it wasn’t planned.

            1. Don Kloppeone
              • 6 Years
              4 years, 10 months ago

              Oh well. Just shows his ability to seize on a moment!!

          2. Wild Rover
            • 13 Years
            4 years, 10 months ago

            How could they have planned for the keeper to be looking away and Origi being unmarked?

            1. Don Kloppeone
              • 6 Years
              4 years, 10 months ago

              Not that part. Just thought he bluffed the run away before taking it but seems he was just being ballsy and took a chance. Barca caught napping. Beautiful

  3. Don Kloppeone
    • 6 Years
    4 years, 10 months ago

    Totally caught up in the match and result haven’t been on Twitter ... any intel on Robbo injury?

    1. HamezMace
      • 9 Years
      4 years, 10 months ago

      He was interviewed after the match, and just said he’d get it (the injury) looked at tomorrow.

      1. Don Kloppeone
        • 6 Years
        4 years, 10 months ago

        Cheers. Missed that. Was running round the house 😆

        1. HamezMace
          • 9 Years
          4 years, 10 months ago

          I bet.
          Delighted for you mate.

          ...still can’t beat Northampton though 🙂

          1. Don Kloppeone
            • 6 Years
            4 years, 10 months ago

            Thanks buddy. Something magical in Europe for us. Just wait til the final with Mo back etc. Can’t wait

  4. Richd
    • 11 Years

    Klopp swearing is very naughty.

    1. Brosstan
      • 9 Years
      4 years, 10 months ago

      Banned from the final confirmed. Rooney decision set precedent years ago.

  5. Piggs Boson
    • 12 Years
    4 years, 10 months ago

    Spurs are going to miss Harry and Son in the semi-final. Ajax to go through imo.

    (Harry Winks that is)

    1. HamezMace
      • 9 Years
      4 years, 10 months ago

      Son is available

      1. Piggs Boson
        • 12 Years
        4 years, 10 months ago

        This is the third time I've made that mistake now. I think I'm trolling myself.

    2. George Sillett
      • 8 Years
      4 years, 10 months ago

      Son not suspended for second leg.

    3. Miguel Sanchez
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 7 Years
      4 years, 10 months ago

      Son is available in Champions League

    4. Piggs Boson
      • 12 Years
      4 years, 10 months ago

      Son is available you tit.

      1. Gnu
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 14 Years

        😆
        Brilliant

  6. DeathoftheParty

    Absolute... Scenes...

  7. Ask Yourself
    • 7 Years
    4 years, 10 months ago

    TAA best right back in the world right now ? Change my mind

    1. Licky
      • 11 Years
      4 years, 10 months ago

      Going forward? Yes. Still needs to work on the defensive side of things a little bit.

      1. Kevin 11
        • 6 Years
        4 years, 10 months ago

        could move to midfield soon

        1. Licky
          • 11 Years
          4 years, 10 months ago

          Yep.

        2. Ask Yourself
          • 7 Years
          4 years, 10 months ago

          Under a new manager maybe but he works perfectly in this Liverpool at RB, irreplaceable

          1. Kevin 11
            • 6 Years
            4 years, 10 months ago

            true but Gomez is good still plus you should be able to do more damage from midfield, close one not sure I see it next season so who knows if it will happen

            1. Ask Yourself
              • 7 Years
              4 years, 10 months ago

              Tactically there is no need for Gomez to play RB even in the big games as we saw today. TAA can change the game out wide he gets great freedom there. I think in midfield he could be easily tracked

      2. Ask Yourself
        • 7 Years
        4 years, 10 months ago

        I agree but Jesus he is a next level full back, the future of full backs I think. The amount of goal contributions he is racking up and how crucial he is to liverpool’s Play there is no more important right back in world football I think

    2. Richd
      • 11 Years
      4 years, 10 months ago

      All the best RB’s are English. That’s all that matters.

      1. Ask Yourself
        • 7 Years
        4 years, 10 months ago

        It is a beautiful sight to see all our young prospects doing brilliantly I am very excited for next World Cup

        1. Richd
          • 11 Years
          4 years, 10 months ago

          Let’s wrap the nations league up next week and keep moving forward.

          Our youngsters getting these big games for their club is huge too

          1. Ask Yourself
            • 7 Years
            4 years, 10 months ago

            All English champions league finals are a sign of things to come what a time to be a England fan. The stars are aligning I just can’t figure out which West Ham player will score 4 goals in the final, rice should do it

    3. Forza
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 9 Years
      4 years, 10 months ago

      Alan Hutton hasn't retired yet.

    4. Piggs Boson
      • 12 Years
      4 years, 10 months ago

      It's between TAA, Wan-Bissaka, Trippier, and Walker imo.

      1. Ask Yourself
        • 7 Years
        4 years, 10 months ago

        Think cancelo, Kimmich and carvajal would be a bit embarrassed to miss out on a list to trippier and walker

        1. Piggs Boson
          • 12 Years
          4 years, 10 months ago

          Nah, not English enough.

          1. Ask Yourself
            • 7 Years
            4 years, 10 months ago

            Let’s get on with brexit and ignore the Irish border who cares about laws just get on with it !!!

        2. Majestic Chanka
          • 7 Years

          Who, who and who???

    5. George Sillett
      • 8 Years
      4 years, 10 months ago

      What , better than Phil Bardsley?

    6. AndyCook
        4 years, 10 months ago

        Unbelievable he was overlooked for the first leg

      1. Ask Yourself
        • 7 Years
        4 years, 10 months ago

        Wow

      2. Don Kloppeone
        • 6 Years
        4 years, 10 months ago

        You better report on your dreams ahead of this weekend!!

        1. Big boy Bowen
          • 7 Years
          4 years, 10 months ago

          I don't usually remember my dreams!

      3. barracuda

        Close dream, they did in 90.

        1. Big boy Bowen
          • 7 Years
          4 years, 10 months ago

          Not a pool fan but genuinely buzzing for them.
          Wonderful attitude and belief

      4. SPorting
        • 12 Years
        4 years, 10 months ago

        AET?

        Not even close, you scam artist!

        1. Big boy Bowen
          • 7 Years
          4 years, 10 months ago

          Lol my bad!

      5. Brosstan
        • 9 Years
        4 years, 10 months ago

        Not even close considering 4-0 was the minimum needed for pool to go through. You basically dreamt 'Liverpool goes through', everything else was wrong

    7. Wild Rover
      • 13 Years
      4 years, 10 months ago

      Massive congrats to Liverpool and fans. Brilliant 🙂

      1. Don Kloppeone

        What a night!!!!!!

        Wish I was up at Anfield. Place must be absolutely sizzling

        • 11 Years

        Amen.

        Only the ones that were born in Liverpool and not glory hunting.

        1. Dosh
          • 10 Years
          4 years, 10 months ago

          How could a Liverpool fan be a glory hunter?

          1. Richd
            • 11 Years
            4 years, 10 months ago

            They could have been born in the 80s

            1. Don Kloppeone
              • 6 Years
              4 years, 10 months ago

              Guilty. But I started supporting when I was 5 so hard to call it proper glory hunting and there’s been plenty of no-glory patches over the years!!

              1. Richd
                • 11 Years
                4 years, 10 months ago

                True. At least you stuck with them 🙂

                Mainly aimed at a few work colleagues who wouldn’t even see this tbh haha

                1. Don Kloppeone
                  • 6 Years
                  4 years, 10 months ago

                  Yep it’s a long road but it’s a fantastic club to support and these seasons under Klopp have brought a lot of the magic back. A lot more hope amongst even the more embittered fans in my experience

              2. George Sillett
                • 8 Years
                4 years, 10 months ago

                  • 6 Years
                  4 years, 10 months ago

                  Thanks mate. I can’t wait to wake up my 10yr old son who fell asleep just after half time at 1-0 up!? He’s going to go absolutely mental!!!

                2. Don Kloppeone

            Started supporting them last season when Salah came and they began looking really good. I know plenty... Liverpool literally have more glory hunters than United. Only English team with more is City.

      I’m sure Spurs will ruin the football high tomorrow with a drab 0-0

      I'm a United supporter but I despise Suarez and Alba just a wee bit more. I'm happy knowing they'll be sitting at home watching the final. Well done, Liverpool.

      1. Top Lad Dakes.

          Horrible diving and playacting twat. Second to Suarez only in that side.

          1. Saxe-Gotha
            • 9 Years
            4 years, 10 months ago

            Exactly. Suarez, Alba, and Neymar. The three I love to see lose the most.

      2. Dosh
        • 10 Years
        4 years, 10 months ago

        Same. I hate Liverpool but I hate Barca more. Now Ajax to win the cup and it's all good.

      Who would have thought that two enforced substitutions would lead to Liverpool history:

      2005 CL Final: Finnan (injured) subbed off for Hamann at HT
      2019 CL SF: Robertson (injured) subbed off for Wijnaldum at HT

      And people say there is no such thing as destiny.....

      Never wanted to see Liverpool in the final, but after that performance, can’t say I’m upset.

      Well done them, amazing result.

          Doherty Son to TAA BSilva -4.

          Playing Robbo, hope he starts, but w/ Bednarek first sub just in case.

          Sounds like a solid plan.

            Pukki! I've heard good things about you for next season.

            Said my piece already re tonight. Forward thinking now. Mind in FPL mode til it's over.

          If you had a free Pool space worth a punt on Origi or Ginni?

            depends who you're replacing, but maybe if no other pressing concerns

          Was the scoutcast delayed, or do they just not like football?

          Seriously don’t want Spurs to win.

          TOT v LIV in the CL Final would be such a boring anti-climax.

            Bugger...

            If I'd be priced out of Son Doherty to BSilva TAA (-4) with any price fluctuations, would you do the first (Son to BSilva move just now? looks like Bernardo price rising).

                Wouldn’t be interested in B Silva, he’s steady at best

                        Not in a million years. So proud of the boys, left everything on the pitch. Absolutely stunned

                          Unbelievable. Same magic I felt in 2005.

                          The final with Mo and hopefully Firmino back. Sweet beJaysus

                  🙁 Don't like making early transfers but...

                  If I'd be priced out of Son Doherty to BSilva TAA (-4) with any price fluctuations, would you do the first (Son to BSilva) move now?

                  Looks like Bernardo price rising according to both FFFix and FPLstats. Have exact funds.

                      Haha I know, bottomed. Semi-urgent matter due to exact funds that's just why I reposted

                    I really don't think it's worth it. There is still football to be played and who knows what state your team will be in by the time the press conferences are done, there could be injuries we don't know about yet. Add the outstanding Son red card appeal and that's a whole lot of uncertainty for a plan that involves a hit going into GW38. Sorry to put a downer on it but id definitely wait.

                        If you get priced out there will always be another option. You never know, they may outscore your original target. Good luck.

                    Not worth it. You can easily pick someone who can score similar to b. Silva even if priced out.

                    Why take a hit for a defender for a single week?
