GWT: CL Quarterfinal Build-up and Leg One

[Live in the Now]

Kabak coming off guarantees they score.

 

[Bringer of Jollity]

To be fair I think it' 50 50

Not on purpose by Can but his arm was out

Personally I wouldn't have given it, but I don't think the ref's decision was wrong either

Yeah, same. Seemed harsh to award but I don't really have an issue either way.

 

[Machinehead]

TAA is about to get exposed again...

Plus Wijnaldum has more passes out of bounds today than to teammates. I thought that would have been the choice.

 

[Savant]

It’s like playing 9 on 11 right now with Bobby and Mane

 

[MrFunnyWobbl]

THE REFS DECISION WAS WRONG IF IT IS A 5050 BECAUSE THE REFS LITERALLY ALREADY JUST DECIDED TO DENY BVB A GOAL THE FIRST LEG

Like it's just ridiculous, City literally only ahead because of reffing.

Firmino and Mane with a tribute to their seasons there with Firmino randomly firing into Mane's crotch.

 

[Live in the Now]

Extremely frustrating how fast RM get back behind the ball.

 

[Machinehead]

Fierce competition among Liverpool attackers today to see which of them can be Real's best defender.

 

[Savant]

Firmino and Mane with a tribute to their seasons there with Firmino randomly firing into Mane's crotch.

I mean as much as Klopp is too loyal to his guys at times, who else on the bench (besides Diogo Jota) can score a goal in a game like this?

 

[Scandale du Jour]

Come on Vini...

Nobody.

We had all that success despite horrendous depth. Injuries and declines and have exposed it.

 

[Jersey Fresh]

Holy shit what a ball.

 

[Machinehead]

Mo waiting for a written invitation to shoot

 

[JeffreyLFC]

I mean as much as Klopp is too loyal to his guys at times, who else on the bench (besides Diogo Jota) can score a goal in a game like this?

Nobody which explain LFC form.

But that is no excuse for how terrible Mane et Firmino have been.

 

[Machinehead]

Jota does the things Mane used to.

He needs to be an automatic starter at this point.

 

[spintheblackcircle]

oooooooFFFFoden

 

[Duchene2MacKinnon]

Foden what a strike this boy is a gem!

 

[Power Man]

They gave him too much space tho lol

Yeah tough either way but if I was a BVB fan, I’d be livid.

then again... City has been dominant and Foden just got another one.

 

[Peen]

My thought with the 50/50 calls is that if you put yourself in position for the referee to make a call, you can only complain so much.

There's no question that first leg should have had a different result due to the awful call on the Bellingham disallowed goal.

I don't think that you should let previous leg's officiating affect the current one though...

If there's a bunch of calls within one match where there's like 10 50/50s and the 50/50s go one way's team 8/10 times, then I think that's a valid reason to be annoyed but you can't let a previous game's officiating errors impact another leg..

 

[Live in the Now]

Everyone except our front three has been pretty good. Bad way to go out.

 

[Savant]

Waited way too long for these subs.

they were both dreadful. Would have rather had the fresh legs

 

[Duchene2MacKinnon]

Foden should probably start in the euros.

 

[Machinehead]

Can't say we didn't have chances today.

Nobody could have realistically expected us to win the Champions League with the players we're missing. I just wanted us to have a decent showing and I can't say I'm disgusted or discouraged by the performance in the knockout rounds.

We need to address our lack of depth. I'm not even talking about CB (although we should get one) because nobody can plan for literally *every* CB having a season-ending injury, plus two of the guys filling in to go down at points.

Up front is where it really showed. Mane and Firmino should have spent most of this season in warmup vests but who's coming in?

 

[PDX Flyer]

Foden what a strike this boy is a gem!

As a United fan.... Foden sure is looking a lot like Scholes. Great passer and can score
