Champions League

[serghei]

Every time an underdog wins people instantly point to complacency as if these guys aren't experienced world class players in their prime. What if Liverpool just aren't super invincibles?

Sometimes it's complacency, but Where's the credit for Villareal simply outplaying them so far? Liverpool have been poor technically and tactically, Villareal just superior so far.

Agreed. Villareal showed quality and superior technique so far. Some of their players played outrageous in the first half.

IF Villareal advance— Real will 100% advance too. Just how these things work.

Fairplay, thought Villarreal were finished after the 1st leg. Hopefully Liverpool still take it so Madrid can face some resistance in a potential final.

Madrid vs Vilareal head to head in last 10 games:

RM 3 wins, Villarreal 1 win, 6 draws. All RM wins were by one goal. Villarreal always give them a tough game

Imagine if Villareal takes out Juve, Bayern, Liverpool, and Madrid/City for the title.

Then they become the biggest club in the world in my book.

Maybe our players and our manager is seeing this. This is the physicality and the speed and commitment you need to show up with in Europe.

Nah. Their watching it, looking at Dani Parejo, Raul Albiol and thinking that Busi and Pique can go for another 4 years

Because they played an excellent game against City just 2 weeks back

Granted they're not some crazy side historically which they themselves admit, but this is match prep gone wrong full stop

 

[Temptation]

Biggest 45 minutes of our season so far. Let's go. Diaz on.

Biggest fold I?ve seen was the Ac Milan meltdown against Depor. But it would be a big shock for Liverpool to be knocked out considering their position.

They?ve had a great season but this is the 4th CL game this season they haven?t looked as strong as they usually do.

Nah, that was Super Depor. PSG wins the bottle job duel easily.

 

[Morten]

This reminds me of norwegian comedy, where they made fun of how teams could go from being great at home, to turning super-insecure once they showed up at an away stadium.

Only DonAK might understand.

 

[Iniesta Ultra]

Only caught last five minutes first half, glad to see it's not over.

 

[Co0ter]

That was 100% a penalty. LFC caught a huge break.

 

[soul24rage]

Wonder if a Liverpool player cried at half time.

 

[mc_lovin]

Yeah, I am not changing my opinion on Jota.. he's kind of shit.

 

[fergus90]

Nah, that was Super Depor. PSG wins the bottle job duel easily.

It was but Milan were holders, had a great squad and were 4-1 up on aggregate. Of course they famously folded in Instanbul a year later too!

Dani Parejo the EL winner and potential CL winner - EV knew it all along
