CL Matchweek 5

So if Spartak wins at Anfield and Sevilla wins in Maribor, Liverpool will be enjoying the EL.

Is that right?

Spartak has to win by 5+ unless I'm mistaken.

 

[Live in the Now]

Spartak's defense is worse than ours and choked away two matches against Maribor. It would surprise me.

I think the first tie breaker is head to head and I'm pretty sure they drew the first game, so a Spartak win would mean they're above based on better head to head record. If Sevilla draws and it's 3 teams on 9 points, then I think it gets messy.

I thinks it's head to head games if Liverpool and Spartak ends with the same amount of points?

 

[Burner Account]

Oh I thought it was goals. As a Liverpool fan, you can understand why I wouldn't know that.

That is far less ideal.

I've been let down too many times by Liverpool to keep a positive mind lol

 

[Paulie Gualtieri]

Harry Winks has put in another great performance against a top side, even though he couldn't roam as much as usual since he was our holding midfielder. Quite confident in saying that he is both our and Englands best central midfielder.

Dele also performed very well as a central midfielder today. Picked up two great assists. Still some believe that he is nothing but a supporting striker.

 

[Havre]

Spurs without Winks are %$###$. Feels a bit strange saying it, but that is just a fact. Without him the team just do not play. With him it is always, basically without exceptions, better.

No coincidence IMO that Spurs struggled against Arsenal. Could very well have lost with Winks as well, but no way would Spurs have been beaten that easily with him starting the game.

I'll be very excited to see a Winks-Wanyama pairing in the future.

Pls no.

 

[YNWA14]

That wouldn't surprise me. This team is all over the place and Klopp can set a team up well but he's not great at making in game adjustments.

 

[Havre]

Considering that the rest excluding Eriksen (who should play further forward) are fairly average (at best these days) I kind of have to agree. Never really excited to see Wanyama though. Good squad player, but oh so limited.

So. It turns out the Sevilla manager has cancer and told his players at half time.

So ... he knew about it but waited until his team was down 0-3 in an important game before telling his players? I don't know whether I would call that sly or badass.

Jordan Henderson completed 55% of his passes yesterday and did not attempt an aerial duel.

 

[YNWA14]

Yeah he was very bad yesterday. He's been very hit and miss this season. It's too bad because before his injuries he was really turning into a fine player.

Lallana should be fit soon. I'd like to see Klopp reignite his experiment with Wijnaldum at the 6 and play Lallana/Coutinho/Ox in front of him.

Unfortunately right now he only seems to fancy Can or Henderson at the 6 and tbh neither are good enough (unless Hendo can find his form from last season).

 

[Burner Account]

Can is good enough and they're probably going to lose him on a Bosman. Poor business.

 

[ViD]

Spartak winning at Anfield? Close to impossible, they will enjoy EL as they should failing to beat Maribor twice

 

[YNWA14]

Can is good enough and they're probably going to lose him on a Bosman. Poor business.

Just no. Can is worse than Henderson. He's already cost us multiple games this season. Hopefully with Lallana coming back and Ox integrating we rarely have to see him again.

 

[Pyromaniac]

Qarabag were causing Chelsea problems and were a crossbar away from being up 1-0. Instead their captain appears to clip Willian, gets a red card and they are down 1-0 after Hazard converts the penalty kick. Got to feel for their fans,

 

[Savi]

Messi to start on the bench vs Juve

Just no. Can is worse than Henderson. He's already cost us multiple games this season. Hopefully with Lallana coming back and Ox integrating we rarely have to see him again.

I'm sure Juventus wants Can because he's bad.

 

[Savant]

Moussa Dembele puts Celtic in front!

 

[Savi]

Anderlecht striker Teodorczyk with a HUGE chance vs Bayern but misses so still no goals for Anderlecht in the CL

 

[Evilo]

Neymar ties it.
Rabiot with interception+assist.
