Barcelona v Liverpool UCL Semi Final 1/5/19 20.00 BT2 +Virgin.

Cantona's Collars

The clash of the 2 favourites to win the trophy so something's got to give.
Barcelona with the genius of Messi and Liverpool with a lethal front 3 could serve up a treat.
The fans over there already seem to be enjoying themselves. Will they be happy by the final whistle?

Don't mod me young man. I am merely defending the honour of my fellow fans following some scurrilous accusations.

Not a Liverpool fan and not sure if it was mentioned and whilst the Messi free kick was unreal it was taken a good few yards forward from where the foul was.

And he jumped on fabinho's back to win the free.

Ah it was a foul. Barca made the most of any contact throughout the game but definitely got blocked off

Anyway, sad to see the pathetic glee by some of the utd posters.

I don't get this at all. Pathetic glee is just as much part of the fan experience as anything else. Far too sensitive around here. I say that as a hurting Liverpool fan, I expect dogs abuse from any opposition. And so what? I'd be the same in their position, it's all part of coping with the ups and downs of supporting your team.

I think on tonight's showing whoever wins this tie is basically the champions.

Ajax are a great side very fearless but theyed be picked apart by Barca and smothered by Pool.

Spurs, well I don't think they'll be in the final but Barca have already beaten them well and tested Messi for the camp Nou game as they were through.

If Pool turn this around it will be up there with some of the greatest CL come backs of all time and they'll be worthy winners.

If Barca go on to the final they'll likely secure another treble, Messi, Busquests and Pique will have 3 trebles which is pretty unheard of.

It was blatant obstruction. Free kick every day of the week.

Yeah, but they have never won The 97 Points Cup.

And people getting upset about it is fitting for a sport where people go down clutching their faces if an opposing player farts within 10 yards of them.

anyone who thinks Ronaldo is better than Messi is just not being objective.

Best player ever easily.

Unless one counts World Cups.

If you count the biggest trophy in world football, he's not "easily" better than Pele and Maradona...

Yeah, you do you.

The place is constantly bemoaned as a cesspool and posters complain yet opposing fans,utd in this instance, just wait for a bad Liverpool result and it's:

"Klopp talking bollox"

"I'm so happy"

"Get in"

"Lucky it only finished 3-0".

Etc etc.

If it's part of the fan experience for you here then, as I say, you do you. Clearly not gonna change.

"Best team lost 3-0".

You don't often hear that quote in football.

Era he's scored 600 goals in something like 680 games.

Pele managed it playing against farmers and postmen, Messi's done it in the most competitive era of football.

It's part of the fan experience everywhere, not just here. I have already had the WhatsApp messages coming in from mates, and work is going to be hell in the morning. What am I going to say back? "Oh you're pathetic"?? I'd be laughed out of it.

Mokuba

Klopp in fairness to him has outlasted Mourinho, Conte and Van Gaal - although all of them have actually managed to win trophies in the time Klopp has been in England. Maybe it's a mental barrier?

RollieFingers

Opposition fans haven't had much chances to have a go at Liverpool this season in fairness, was to be expected, you have to take the rough with the smooth.

I really wish you'd let this go. You bring it up a few times a week.

Its so far beyond what's acceptable as banter.

Another moral victory for Liverpool by the reports here.

Spot on but I suppose some people just are sensitive souls.
Sure you see lads losing the plot at matches because opposition fans chants upset them:D

Strange game. Barcelona 3-0 Liverpool. Liverpool created some good chances and Barcelona should have made it four at the very end. Barcelona bossed the first half. Liverpool had the best of the second half.

Playing alongside the best players in world football week in and week out.

Xavi, Iniesta, Ronaldinho, Deco, Eto'o, Henry, Ibrahimovic, Puyol, Pique, Suarez, Neymar, Coutinho. He's always been playing alongside world class players since he was 17.

No one's disputing his GOAT credentials, but we live in the superteam era which has benefit both him and Ronaldo massively. They're the two best players in the world playing alongside the 3rd, 4th, 5th, 6th, 7th, 8th best players in the world.

Barca will win plenty when he goes at some point.

They won 6 la ligas in the 90s, the CL in 92, in 2006, all without Messi or little of him.

josip

Although there was an element of luck to Barcelona's 2nd I don't think it can be dismissed as a fluke.
It again shows how Messi has a better footballing brain than those around him.
When Suarez hit the ball, Messi was 2 yards directly behind VVD.
By the time the ball was coming back off the bar, he was accelerating past him towards the space and VVD was literally rooted to the ground.
Messi anticipated and reacted to what happened while those around him were still spectating.

It happens when united loose, get posters like md1990 trying to take a rise there.

Just because united fans post so what..

This is the CL semi final, everybody is watching. So liverpool fans getting worked up about people posting about their thrashing need a thicker skin.

It goes every way, i know dir hard arsenal and spurs fans and they slate each other all the time.

Fact is people get worked up. If i was down the pub with a pool supporter now, he'd get a slagin, because its CL night.

Its football
