don't know if this is post hoc ergo propter hoc thinking but the champ's league qualification you get for winning the Europa seems to have turned it into a good tournament

It was good anyway, apart from English clubs treating it as a burden on their ambitions to finish 4th.

Moreno was lucky alright

Just realised that Liverpool achieved this while starting Kolo Toure over both legs.
― Matt DC, Friday, 6 May 2016 08:09 (ten years ago)
I was thinking about this just now. Kind of amazing.

Shame that City are out because the possibility of United finishing fourth and Liverpool nicking their CL place was just too beautiful.
― Matt DC, Friday, 6 May 2016 08:19 (ten years ago)
I'm not massively confident about the final really. Anfield has been at the heart of most of these good performances.

a 35k stadium in basel doesn't quite have the same potential. i'm guessing sevilla are going to be more likely to score goals. still - it is p great just to have something to care about in may. i know how rare that is!

I've been joking around that Klopp '16 = McClaren '06, with the dramatic comeback wins in the UEFA/EL (ok, this semi wasn't on a par with Boro's semi ten years ago) and, hey, it's a final vs Sevilla.
I am fairly confident that Liverpool will not lose 4-0.
― Michael Jones, Friday, 6 May 2016 09:31 (ten years ago)
Sevilla winning three times in a row would be unprecedented, right? Five times in ten years would also be frankly ridiculous.

bit of a failure holding the final in such a small stadium.

have you all seen this btw?

craig burley murdering gabriel marcotti about "expected goals".
as much as burley is just going radge, and probably just hates stats, i can't stand marcotti and a quick look at twitter sees all these stats idiots patting themselves on the back because they're smarter than burley.
― japanese mage (LocalGarda), Friday, 6 May 2016 10:25 (ten years ago)
I have zero interest in in-game football stats, but CB isn't really making any sense at all there, which is not to say it isn't fun watching these dudes shout at each other.
― Tim, Friday, 6 May 2016 10:38 (ten years ago)
yeah he's definitely wrong. i prob just hate marcotti.

none of banega, firmino (firminho (c) owen hargreaves) or coutinho have really got involved yet
nobody else is likely to do anything interesting
― “bad” mothers, rebel mamas, and other radical/transgressive moms (nakhchivan), Wednesday, 18 May 2016 19:14 (ten years ago)
so if Sevilla win this they'll've won the Europa League/UEFA Cup 5 years out of 10.

kolo toro has been everywhere today (in a positive sense)

this is way too cagey - that Seville chance says it all. Liverpool don't win games at this tempo.
― japanese mage (LocalGarda), Wednesday, 18 May 2016 19:17 (ten years ago)
It's tense. No real momentum for Liverpool yet, while Sevilla dont seem to need momentum to win games like this.
Frustrating match this,

Well well well

That was very very good indeed.
Also I only found out today that BT are streaming both this and the CL final on YouTube THIS IS THE FUTURE.

such a skilful player
― japanese mage (LocalGarda), Wednesday, 18 May 2016 19:27 (ten years ago)
idk if coutinho and firmino had combined before the goal but with a more open game they should probably be able to kill it
