ECHO Comment: "Fears of Witch-hunt Against Liverpool FC" part 2

[Chimpy Glassman]

Still not seeing a punch here. Am I missing something?

I think Liverpool were punching above their weight.

That's done me in that, the man lived in Spain for years and that's his Spanish?

I've worked with and been friends with many supporters of other clubs and have on the whole I've enjoyed talking all things football. Alas I had to make a conscious decision many years ago not to bother with the rs fans, they have lost the ability to engage in sensible discussion and I'm sure I'm not alone in putting them lot on ignore.
In hindsight this action has possibly contributed to the Cult FC phenomenon, like in all areas of life, politics, religion, sport etc healthy debate with people of different viewpoints is necessary to avoid one eyed fanaticism which is why in times of conflict the first casualty is the truth to be replaced by propaganda.

I'm like that with CFC. I haven't knowingly had a conversation with a Chelsea fan about 20 years. I will hopefully go another 20 by which time i will be dead.

Unfortunately, I can't avoid the four LFC fans i know.

he goes up and down all day long, as does milner...its all a bit suspicious considering his age...

I think Milner is slowing down considerably. He's doing a bit of a Gareth Barry and his demise is at a slow yet undeniable rate. I think next season, the tipping point will be reached where his footballing brain can't compensate for his body not being able to cope with top level football. A shame as he was a good footballer, but I suppose he got a two year swansong at Liverpool once he stepped down from the big boys at City.

When is the city one?

The what....?

 

[Chimpy Glassman]

AT HOME too. It's not like he did that at Anfield, he did it at the ground he plays at now.

I despise Suarez but more I really really want to see him score at Liverpool.

I want a hat-trick.

LOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOL @ Aldo.

Nice avatar! Bet you never thought he'd be pictured there!

Lord 'Hendo' to the rescue.

 

[Yarrgh]

there spending spree comes from players sold and Champions league prize money,

Is that turnover or revenue? lol Or having a double of Suarez as first scorer and a 3-0 scoreline? lol

I kid, I kid my big blue buddy. We're all having such great fun after Barca walloped them and behaved like a bully pushing an old man into a fountain.

 

[Bungle]

On closer inspection the Messi incident definitely looks like a punch, a decent one at that. Some reach on him for a little fella as well

I didn't know Raymond Chandler or Mickey Spilllane were RS ???? Rawk is waxing lyrically this morning (amongst the swearing about Barca being cheats/Suarez not being able to walk round town with his family/Messi etc etc zzzzz that is)……………

Take it as a sign of respect. They were rattled. Underdogs in their own backyard, it rarely happens. We backed a tiger into a corner and felt the repercussions.

If last night was a boxing match it was two elite boxers but one demonstrating their ring craft and dynamism and one demonstrating their chin and ruthlessness. We controlled the spaces, pinned them back against the ropes and would be winning on points except for the couple they landed on our chin.

That's left us wounded, battling against the odds with a mountain to climb after six rounds gone. But we've got more fight and spirit than most, and we're about to be given an all mighty boost. We need to stick to our game plan in the second half and just be more clinical. Capture the moments when they're offered to us.

One of Klopp's all time favourite films is Rocky and its a script on that proportion that we need to write. Klopp lives for the fight, for the show of character. If anyone is capable of turning this around it is us, with a rocking Anfield crowd behind them. We've seen the impossible before and we will again. Let's make it Tuesday night. When our backs are against the walls and then piece by piece things start to go our way, the sense of inevitability builds. The opposition feels powerless against it. They are swallowed into a cauldron with no way out.

Think AC Milan, three goals in 6 minutes. Think Dortmund, 3 goals in 30 minutes. Think Olympiakos, 3 goals in a half. Think Man City, 3 goals in 20 minutes.

We've comeback against better sides, against lower odds, with worse players. Nothing is impossible. Remember the feeling of momentum, of inevitability that happens when the pieces start to fall into place. Remember the disbelief when leaving the ground, the elation as dreams become reality. Remember the glow that you wake up to the morning after the night before.

We've seen it before and it is glorious.

Feel the pain now and remember it. Get all the disappoint out of your system. Heartbreak builds character.

On Tuesday night, we go again. We go with absolute everything we've got.

We're not going anywhere.

These people are allowed to vote and breed.
