    They handled Bayern, Juve and Real Madrid with ease. Calm your knickers.

    None of them approach the with the same intensity or pace that Liverpool do. Different types of threat obviously, which they’ve done fantastic with.

    I think Liverpool will be a step too far, if they manage to get past Spurs.

    Imagine them * winning the League and the CL, won't hear the end of it.

    In some ways I wouldn't mind them doing it just to put one over City who still can't get anywhere near the CL and yet, still win the league.

    Could put Pep under some surprising pressure.

    Messi is one of the best ever obv. But he's not the kind of player who can single handedly drag his team into finals, like Ronaldo.

    People always use his lack of trophies at Liverpool, I do to Liverpool fans :giggle1:, but * me he’s transformed them and made Anfield an absolute fortress.

    The models from his time at Dortmund and Liverpool are the type of model we should be trying to implement.

    Ajax will do something even more amazing coming back from 6-0 down in the final with 26 minutes to go winning 7-6:56:

    That is absolutely pathetic from Barcelona.

    A 3-0 lead against a team missing 2 of their star players and they lose.

    Messi is the best player ever but you’ll never see a team with Ronaldo in it lose a CL semi final in that fashion.

    When I heard Robbie Fowler before the game I was thinking I bet he's making a lot of money in the dressing room tonight

    To me though they are teams who have ran out of steam as are Barcelona, they are tired teams on their last legs with no energy about them. Liverpool are the opposite they have good legs in their team.

    I've said before but Man City and Liverpool are the only 2 top teams with a bit of energy and speed about them, all the other top teams have very limited mobility and are probably all lopsided with old or slow players.

    Van Dijk has transformed that team.

    We were * robbed to sell him at the price we did! Even when you include the sell-on clause bonus.

    Aye, Klopp is just incredible. Third European final in 4 years with Liverpool. Third CL final in 6 years.

    Barca are really pretty ordinary at times, the amount of times they passed the buck to Messi and he was pish as well, actually caused the 3rd goal.

    The likes of Suarez, Coutinho, Rakitic, Alba, Vidal, Roberto are nowhere near top players. Suarez was but he's too slow now and at least needs someone pacey near him.

    A lot easier to do when you have the money.
