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

[boris]

Munich are are a FAR bigger club than Dortmund, finance, history, world-following & success wise!
Surely you realise this, hence why Dortmund lose plenty of players to Munich?

A final isn’t won on that criteria anyway it’s based on what’s happening that day.

United are a FAR bigger club than Liverpool using your criteria but if you played a final tomorrow I’m sure you’d make yourselves favourites.

Just like many of your fans genuinely believed you only had to turn up to smash Madrid.

I’m still struggling with the ‘deserved’ draw at Chelsea.

Chelsea were cruising in second gear, they thought it was won but for the freak goal.

Salah hit tamely at the keeper & put one into row G both in grat positions from 18 yards, plus rounded the keeper only for Rudiger to clear off the line. Firmino had a good header cleared off the line, Mane had shot brilliantly saved by the keeper, Shaqiri missed an open goal.

More possession, shots on goal & shots on target. Apart from the fact that it was a very late wonder strike to earn the draw, I'm not sure what you're struggling with. Was an even game with both sides having chances and Chelsea were certainly not "cruising in second gear" lol

The point I'm making is it's not really bottling it in matches when, all things being equal, you're playing against a better side.

But...as has been said, like Liverpool playing United tomorrow, they weren’t playing against a better side. They were playing against a bigger club but at that time the sides were very equal.

Expect new FIFA directive ....ALL pitches must now be the same size as Anfield

Just had a quick look - the Anfield pitch is 52cm longer than the Goodison pitch. Unfair advantage (to someone, not quite sure who)!!!!!

52cm longer 100% less sacred.

Nah, everyone gets a chance in a game and you barely had any, the best one came from a Chelsea playing slipping otherwise that wouldn’t have happened. Your goal wasn’t even a chance.

Chelsea got there noses in front and just sat there letting you have the ball, knowing you couldn’t get in behind them and were very, very comfortable.

I’d just always presumed this was existing legislation.

It’s Ramos’s fault !

I noticed the strapping on his shoulder. Not sure how that helps if it was dislocated? Maybe still some muscle damage, in which case they probably shouldn't be playing him. However the RS have a long history of ruining players by making them play while injured.

Wrong Shoulder!

That must be another injury from carrying this team for so long.

Do you watch much football?

They played crap last night. Have they now ditch Klopp's invention 'winning ugly'?

Yes pal, I just don’t do it wearing a set of blinkers.

Didn’t Dortmund finish above Bayern to win the league twice in a row around then? So I don’t think it’s a stretch to say they were a better side than Bayern really.

Napoli didn’t give them any mistakes to latch onto therefore their attacking game was completely negated. If you are comfortable in possession, play a deep defence and keep individual errors to a minimum the bestest front three in the world can’t really do much apart from dive for pens.

 

[Skamp]

Yes pal, I just don’t do it wearing a set of blinkers.

So Liverpool had more of the ball, more shots on goal, more shots on target, had 2 efforts cleared of the line and forced one brilliant save from the keeper, but didn't deserve a draw?

Good to note you've got no blinkers on!
