UEFA Champions League/Europa League 30th April - 2nd May *** Spoilers ***

[FrankJH]

This is not the Liverpool team that has battered teams all season.

.

highly debatable they have been battering teams all season.....a lot of the high scoring games , Liverpool have also conceded a few in as well (not to mention quite a few no score games as well)

At the beginning of the season especially Liverpool were electric for game after game.....but that hasn't been happening for quite a few months

Messi rolling on the floor was truly pathetic. You're the best player in the world, you don't need to do that stuff like that you knob.

 

[Jimbeam3678]

Not sure what’s funny to be honest, seems pretty accurate. Not played badly but certainly not what you’d expect from them and the big players.

 

[Mark1989]

It's a combination of things tonight missed chances, Messi just being Messi.

I get why klopp choose Gomez but it just shows tonight's game was wrong to rest trent, as I said earlier should have been previous game not tonight.

Even if we got three goals at anfield they will get one themselves.

Dijk this game though has been poor he could have done much better on two of the goals which is rare for him but every great player has a bad game

Doesn't surprise us anymore but klopp changes came too late again

 

[Robbo]

That's embarrassing from Dembele

 

[Azza]

Hows he done that?!

 

[mmj_uk]

Lucky it didn't finish 5-0 after the two runaways in the last 5mins really.

 

[Snax]

Liverpool's USP is the pace and energy of their play allowing them to overload. None of that was there tonight; they were constrained and tentative. They attacked with limited commitment and still lost .

 

[Mark1989]

Good job Alison said no to going up for the final corner or would have been even worse

Lmao Messi strikes again lol. Such a complete player.

If any team had a chance to beat Barca in the CL, I would have thought Liverpool would be that team.

But sadly out Messi’d just like Utd in the last round.

Won’t say the tie is over as they still have the 2nd leg at Anfield but it’s a tall mountain to climb.

If Mane didn't miss that goal who knows what might of happened? Liverpool were hardly poor it was just Messi went iddqd in the second half.

 

[Alex h]

Oh well that's going to take some pulling back in the 2nd leg

 

[Trusty]

Shame. Few moments of brilliance from Barca and a few lapses in concentration. Not much really in it. Liverpool set up too defensively, they should have gone with their normal line up with Firmino & Arnold playing

Nah, it’s over mate.

 

[Mark1989]

Am all for believing in an epic come back from us but I think it's too much to do against barca and Messi.

 

[Robbo]

I wouldn't say it's over yet, Barca aren't as good away from home and Liverpool could pile the pressure on.

Big ask though.

 

[Snax]

It's not the missed chances that is the problem. It was the nature of the performance. Liverpool's natural game is perfect to shred Barcelona but they didn't play their natural game.

 

[Alex h]

Nah, it’s over mate.

it's going to take a massive effort to pull it back as Barca will hit them on the break

I would say the tie is over. I dont think we can keep a clean sheet against Barca.

Infact, if it was me, I would rest the first team in the 2nd leg. If somehow Leicester can nick a point off City then I would want the full first team 100% rested and fit for Wolves because that is not an easy match at all.
