mourinho's an utter genius.

 

[Walshy]

Suarez has been shocking.

Off form for a month now.

 

[The_Hitcher89]

have some faith mate

Never


Needed an early goal in the first half, and need one even more now.

Playing We Will Rock You at Anfield. We deserve to lose.

 

[Labadal]

I guess this is karma for the penalty Chelsea were denied.

 

[Wilbur]

Mourinho essentially plays like Stoke, but has the money and players to do it at a world class level...

Not playing anything like Stoke, fucking hell. This isn't hoofball. This is a calculated, tactically adept performance that is aimed at taking the pace and momentum out of Liverpool's game.

2 - Liverpool have won only two of their last 30 Premier League games when they've been trailing at HT (W2 D7 L21). Slip.

 

[Shining Sunshine]

Wow! That Gerrard screw up! That Ba goal!

Park that bus, boys.

 

[Tc91]

Amazing scenes. Liverpool will still get something though. Enjoying it while I can.

Yeah I feel the same.

No way they will let this slip.

I was thinking the same during the match, but thought I said so it would seem like sour grapes

 

[Elchele]

What a goal by Augsburg

just beautiful

 

[Kosma]

Gerrard will never forgive himself if that was the tipping point :/

 

[Jimmyfenix]

Given that Moyes could do it I doubt it.

Long live moyes

 

[spidye]

Augsburg hnnngh

Bye Hamburg

 

[Blablurn]

mourinho's an utter genius.

hahahaha yeah for sure

 

[Wilbur]

Given that Moyes could do it I doubt it.

Moyes could do it because your style of play was fucking anaemic

Jesus Christ, the tears when someone decides to defend well is fucking stunning.

 

[Scully Scully Scoo]

He sets his team up in a very impressive defensive shape, has played it perfectly in taking the pace out of the game, has managed the occasion brilliantly, and is winning. Good job for me.

any manager worth a damn can instruct their team to put 10 behind the ball, even moyes done it against bayern and got 1-1, doesnt make him the best manager ever. he does the same shit every time and its so damn boring.

 

[Broder Salsa]

Time to park the bus, truck, plane and Ross Turnbulls fat arse in front of that goal. Lets do it. I just hope when the fuckup in the defense happens, it won't be Kalas.

 

[bud]

mourinho's brilliant.

 

[KidA Seven]

Moyes getting sacked has made everything right in the world. He was the key to Everton and Liverpool's rise and fall.

 

[Wilbur]

any manager worth a damn can instruct their team to put 10 behind the ball, even moyes done it against bayern and got 1-1, doesnt make him the best manager ever. he does the same shit every time and its so damn boring.

Moyes got a draw because Bayern were focused on tapping the ball around in an effort to be even more boring than any well conceived defensive performance ever could be

Pep really ruined football.

Not playing anything like Stoke, fucking hell. This isn't hoofball. This is a calculated, tactically adept performance that is aimed at taking the pace and momentum out of Liverpool's game.

And that's Pullis would do if he had Mourinho's players and money

salt levels absurdly high today.

that style of play that led Stoke to so many trophies innit.

"3rd was where we thought we'd end up."

[Phantast2k]

Wow, Hamburg is dying...imokwiththat.jpg
Don't let it go, Liverpool-chans :|

 

[Frustrated_me]

mourinho's brilliant because Gerard slipped? I mean the hyperbole in here... And I like mou!

 

[Gentle Rodriguez]

They just really need to step up next season. And think of something to not get crushed if a team plays high pressure on us. Why can't we play like that first half against Barca every week. High pressure, quick passes, good attacking play. The energy was good.

De Boer needs to back off his Barca boner too. We need a plan B for when shit doesn't work, and we need a new plan for how to use strikers. It's not a coincidence not one striker has been able to do well in De Boer's system. I hope the entire Eredivisie steps it up so we have a reason to step up as well, we shouldn't have been champions with this kind of play.

 

[Gareth Bale]

100 quid on Liverpool to score the 2nd goal

#makeusdream

haha and chelsea style embodies the spirit and style of true/entertaining football does it? haha mourinho has no style, its complete garbage

 

[The_Hitcher89]

Even if Sturridge has a broken leg, tell him to stand on the penalty spot. Nothing is happening inside the box for us. Not sure who for though.


Of all the fucking times for him to slip. Fuck me.

 

[arkon]

You've still got 45 minutes to turn it around. The important thing is to score more goals than Chelsea.

 

[Tc91]

Time to park the bus, truck, plane and Ross Turnbulls fat arse in front of that goal. Lets do it. I just hope when the fuckup in the defense happens, it won't be Kalas.

Kalas has been brilliant, even better if he scored that header. The block from Ivanovic was :lols

Matic been superb too love the way he goes and wins the ball. Something United severely lack.

 

[José Mourinho]

does it really require a amazing mind to put 10 men in your own half? even i could do that. never seen a manager get so much undeserved praise ever

Because it starts and ends there. He just says, "Right team, 10 men behind the ball. Let's do this!" Don't be a berk. It takes organisation and discipline.

Sure if it's that easy do your badges and earn a few medals.

 

[Wilbur]

And that's Pullis would do if he had Mourinho's players and money

Pulis would be a fucking cunt to come to Anfield where you've been blowing teams away and not focus on containing you and stopping your momentum. Mourinho is doing the same.

Just accept you're getting tactically outthought, and hope that Brendan can do something about it. Because that's what's happening at the moment. Even discounting the Gerrard slip, Chelsea are looking the better of the two because they're executing their gameplan well.

And regardless of whether you think it's boring or negative, it was the right one and it's fucking working.

They came for the point, they currently have 3.

They won't be parking busses. They'll be parking trucks.

 

[ShogunDarius]

Tbh this match is just Chelsea choosing who they want to beat them to the title us or man city

 

[Shining Sunshine]

What's Liverpool's last couple fixtures for the season?

 

[LabouredSubterfuge]

That Ladbrokes advert makes me want to slit my wrists.

 

[jtb]

mourinho is obviously a great manager but fuck I hope he doesn't win anything this season.

cunt.

 

[bud]

beating the title favorites with what is essentially a b-team.

mourinho's sensational.

 

[Eanan]

What's Liverpool's last couple fixtures for the season?

palace and newcastle.

 

[Scully Scully Scoo]

Moyes got a draw because Bayern were focused on tapping the ball around in an effort to be even more boring than any well conceived defensive performance ever could be

Pep really ruined football.

so moyes get no credit for setting his team up defensively and reducing bayern to tippy tappy BUT mourinho gets all the praise when he does it hahaha ^^ typical mourinho fanboy

 

[Ingeniero]

How does Liverpool goal dif compare to City's?
The tittle could be decided that way.

 

[ashecitism]

City's is better

What's Liverpool's last couple fixtures for the season?

Palace away, Newcastle home

 

[Splatt]

Chelsea's B team could easily get top 4

 

[Meier]

I'm too afraid to even watch it. My buddy's text (Chelsea fan) woke me up just before my alarm was set to go off. He's at Disney following via phone.

 

[Wilbur]

Hahahahahahamburg!



I hope we'll crush Madrid, just for the tears of all the "Bayern is shit"/"Pep killed football" guys.

And I hope Madrid crush you, just for the tears of all the "Tiki taka deserves better/defending killed football" guys.

haha and chelsea style embodies the spirit and style of true/entertaining football does it? haha mourinho has no style, its complete garbage

True football is about winning. So... yes.

 

[Eanan]

How does Liverpool goal dif compare to City's?
The tittle could be decided that way.

Inferior by 5 at current standings.

 

[Danchi]

Totally agree with Wilbur here.

That Ladbrokes advert makes me want to slit my wrists.

:lol

 

[Linius]

Oh come on guys. We're just gonna pass around in the back filling up the 90 minutes. Not even gonna attempt anymore.

 

[Salvadora]

You're completely spot on Wilbur.

The reaction in here has been incredible.
