UEFA Champions & Europa League Football Thread ** spoilers ** [12th - 14th April 2022]

LFC Team: Alisson, Gomez, Matip, Konate, Tsimikas, Keita, Milner, Henderson, Jota, Firmino and Diaz.

Looking forward to that attack playing together but I'm concerned about the amount of changes tonight.

That team is more then capable of beating Benfica. The 5 sub rule helps.

 

[Stumble Bum]

Klopp showing a lot of faith in his squad with that line-up. Hopefully he's got it right.

 

[Tombstone]

Going to be honest, Benfica showed in the first leg that they are capable of hurting us and that lineup does actually have me a little concerned. That midfield looks like it will get overrun to me. We'll see, I know we have the guys on the bench but I'm always more in favour of the starting them and taking them off once things are safe method, than the starting them on the bench and bringing them on if things go wrong method.

 

[omnomnom]

Henderson AND Milner is my area for concern.

 

[McBain]

Ridiculous challenge from Felipe that just flattened Foden. No yellow, another clown ref.

 

[robfosters]

Jota being a bit hopeful there lol

They are certainly putting in some reducers by the sounds of it.

 

[Tombstone]

That will do the trick, job done now

 

[Purdy]

Good goal

 

[Mark1989]

Konate with another header, just like first leg goal.

Good finish

 

[omnomnom]

Ibou again!

The amount of depth we have is insane.

They cannot disallow that surely.

 

[omnomnom]

That is the easiest foul to give on Jota lmao.

 

[McBain]

They are certainly putting in some reducers by the sounds of it.

They are pure filth.

 

[Ayahuasca]

Liverpool need to be careful here. Benfica get another and it’s gone from plain sailing to a difficult night.

Edit: like what is Firmino doing there?

 

[Tombstone]

Firmino should have Alonsoed that

 

[robfosters]

Ath Madrid = One giant pile of *****

 

[The Running Man]

Ath Madrid = One giant pile of *****

The fans cheered the manager the loudest they said in the commentary team.

Shows that the fans are as bad as the manager.

 

[BaZ87]

Generally played ok and should have been a few goals up. Like the first leg their goal came from nothing.

Hopefully we get a quick start to the 2nd half and get the second goal early to save any late nerves.

 

[omnomnom]

That should be that now.

 

[Tombstone]

Would be good for Salah if he could grab a goal here
