Yeh it was a nice one - Aubamayang 1st touch, the final ball and the finish all beautiful. Premier league so weird and shit quality this season, it's a shame that the only English team in European competition who have been impressive just gave up right at the moment they came to play someone good.

tbh spurs could win the prem this season, if they do so it will be the biggest thing in forever for the team and everyone will remember it for a long, long time.
if they were to win the Europa league this season - obviously they won't now - in about ten years people would be like "didn't spurs win the Europa league once?"
― Cornelius Pardew (jim in glasgow), Thursday, 10 March 2016 19:42 (eight years ago) link
Ah idgaf about the uefa if it shores up CL qualification this season.
But I would like our second string to be better than this.
But idk Dortmund a p good template for how we could have possession and also be actually effective so yknow learn from it I guess.

A good template in the same way Barcelona were a good template for Arsenal

who is going to play the pointless and soul-crushing second leg

Yeah but in arsenes first full season

I'm just annoyed with Spurs cos this match was supposed to be the rich delicious crab lasagne with champagne velouté before the fridge cold ginsters of five past eight

I feel bad about mocking Reus's hair for so long now that he's decided to turn himself into Alex Turner.

Still, another 4-7 games in this competition would have killed us, this is what you get for designing such a stupid, onerous, interminable tournament. Ditch the group stage and the second leg and teams might actually compete properly.
― Matt DC, Thursday, 10 March 2016 19:59 (eight years ago) link
Teams do compete properly. Just not English ones.
― pandemic, Thursday, 10 March 2016 20:00 (eight years ago) link
The only thing I'd change would be CL drop outs being involved.
― pandemic, Thursday, 10 March 2016 20:02 (eight years ago) link
Other European leagues have less stupid onerous domestic campaigns though.

is the seemingly team-wide adoption of the stutter-step PK going to be balo's lasting legacy?

Incredible first half for de gea. fellaini absolutely useless in a match like this though, everything is just going around him the whole time
― François Pitchforkian (NickB), Thursday, 10 March 2016 20:54 (eight years ago) link
Fucking de gea, gonna regret these missed chances when hendo is sent off.

Bah should be 4-0. John Aldridge used to do the shimmy step peno back in the 90s tbf

When teams who've done next to fuck all in Europe for years decide to throw European games I just want the rest of their season to go to shit.

turns out all those times picking up the kids from training and not yet writing autobiographies his internal monologue was worse than the ilx thread
and tbf lol at both these clubs, playing each other on a thursday night and lfc only able to score via a penalty and michael carrick failing to control a terrible cross from an offside jordan henderson
― japanese mage (LocalGarda), Thursday, 10 March 2016 22:05 (eight years ago) link
apparently Fellaini elbowed Sakho at some point before the end
I don't think I've ever hated a Utd player more. And Wayne Rooney still plays for us
― Number None, Thursday, 10 March 2016 22:10 (eight years ago) link
was that not can. can went down just at the very end, in my stream they said there was some incident with fellaini.
not gonna get wildly excited, but i do feel liverpool are a bit like spurs post-bale, a lot of the signings that seemed a waste are growing in confidence. people even dismissed firmino earlier this year. lallana is really playing well, can is looking like the midfielder we've needed, clyne has been good from the beginning, and allen coming on seemed to steady us a lot.
i mean yeah, prob lose 3-0 next week, but there's some promise there.
― japanese mage (LocalGarda), Thursday, 10 March 2016 22:20 (eight years ago) link
I initially dismissed firmino because I watched him play for brazil in the copa america last summer and he was bobbins and missed a diabolical sitter from about 12 yards in one game
― uncle tenderlegdrop (jim in glasgow), Thursday, 10 March 2016 22:30 (eight years ago) link
Was it him that did that crazy backheel turn between mata and whoever? Need a vine of that
― François Pitchforkian (NickB), Thursday, 10 March 2016 22:33 (eight years ago) link
that was lallana i think. he has definitely improved under klopp
― i;m thinking about thos Beans (Michael B), Thursday, 10 March 2016 22:37 (eight years ago) link
Ah yeah right, that was good that
― François Pitchforkian (NickB), Thursday, 10 March 2016 22:41 (eight years ago) link
no, I think it was Firmino
― Number None, Thursday, 10 March 2016 22:44 (eight years ago) link
edge of the box, right hand side?
Nah that was Lallana, that was unreal. Lallana is thriving. He was sensational against City last week.
