I have to imagine the CL is done and tomorrow will probably wind up the Europa. Maybe they'll bring them back when this is done but I'm not totally sure how they will fit it.
 
Their last truly convincing win was 4-0 against Southampton on Feb 1st, in the 8 games since their kids struggled to see of Shrewsbury, the first team only just beat struggling Norwich, lost in Madrid, had to come back from 1-2 down v Moyes’ West Ham, lost the unbeaten league record in style at Watford, got comfortably beaten in the cup at Chelsea, survived a scare to beat Bournemouth and lost tonight after being 2-0 up in extra time

Are they finally showing some wear and tear?

Klopp's teams tend to dip around January or February. You can't play that kind of high press indefinitely without consequences. I'm not knocking it, because it works, but they always tend to hit a wall sometime after the holidays.
 
lol lol lol lol

"We accept it of course but it doesn't feel right tonight. I realise I am a really bad loser, especially when the boys put such an effort in against world class players on the other side who defend with two rows of four."

Atleti boss Simeone was curt in his response to Klopp's reaction.
"[We play] to win. With our weapons, to win," he said. "Respecting our identity, respecting the characteristics of the players, exploiting the defects of the opponents, that's how we play."

Get bent, Klopp.

Perfect response from Simeone .... stating the facts :D
 

According to insiders UEFA will today announce cancellation of rest of CL and EL competitions until further notice. Scenes...RS out just in time
 

I just can't see any way this season's European competitions run to completion tbh although the bosses at EUFA seem too be breaking records for stupidity and greed atm.

Despite Arsenal vs City being called off due to Olympiakos' owner having Covid19, they've ignored club and premier league appeals for Wolves' Europa league fixture to be called off. Meanwhile it's left to the individual associations and clubs to decide a closed doors policy or to appeal against playing at all. There is no leadership, hard decisions, responsibility or guidance given by the administrators at the top running the competitions.

It's like the bad old days of Michel Platini when with money the primary motivation, policies were made on the hoof with vested interests paramount above common sense. Mr Corruption set the tone but following this precedent could now cost lives.
