    Ramos out, both of them

    Good cross and very nice finish by Gerrard.

    Did they say that's his seventh goal in Europe this year?

    I assume some were in the qualifying rounds and don't count towards the competitions top scorer?

    Great finish by Gerrard.

    Madrid are awful and that's being kind. If it wasn't for Casillas they'd be about 10 down. The worst part from their perspective is that they are playing with no passion. Useless!


    Credit to Liverpool though, they're beating the p1ss outta what's in front of them.

    Liverpool will be fielding two men and a dog by the looks of it.

    It'll be horrible, Real will score in first half and win with a late late goal.

    Then we can concentrate on the league *cough*

    I love it when I make a wild prediction :)


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 4,230 ✭✭✭ironictoaster


    Poor Iker, please move to a better team.

    Announcement made there,

    I think Juande might be bringing on 10 year old josh!

    Great performance by Liverpool so far, can think about bringing off players now, either for a rest or because they are on a yellow


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 1,349 ✭✭✭Samurai


    great to see liverpool not playing anti-football they should do it more often


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 5,492 ✭✭✭MementoMori


    Just seeing Gerrard and Torres tonight it does make you wonder what might have been if they had both fit for the league.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,618 ✭✭✭The Sparrow


    Fair play to Liverpool.

    BUT for everyone saying that the praise should be on Liverpool instead of criticising Madrid who are terrible, well if Liverpool play like this on Sat against Utd you have a point. Otherwise it is just a rubbish Madrid team who have imploded in the face of an admittedly very good Liverpool performance.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 13,594 ✭✭✭✭Aidric


    Are Real having a laugh?


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 88,968 ✭✭✭✭mike65


    OMG Raul nearly scored, sort of.

    I presume Rafa will make some changes in the next 20 mins, get Gerrard, Torres and Masch off. Save them for Sunday.

    Stevei G is now the CL top scorer this season.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2, Paid Member Posts: 1,411 ✭✭✭shotamoose


    Fair play to Babel, left foot and all!

    Hmm Skrtle really lost Raul there. Guess it doesn't matter now though ...

    Was a nice move from them I thought. He probably should have scored.

    It's hilarious, how over the last decade or so - and I include Houllier's reign in this - the amount of big name teams that Liverpool put to the sword only for people to say that 'oh, they only won because Madrid/Barcelona/Milan/Juve/whoever didn't play well.' The fact is, there is no team better in Europe than Liverpool at stopping their opponents from playing well - it's a skill.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,086 ✭✭✭Duiske


    Why can't we have this kind of commitment week in / week out in the premiership ?

    Have to say, apart from obviously Torres and Gerrard, Alonso is doing everything right in the middle. Absolute class. Great stuff :)


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 11,435 ✭✭✭✭redout


    I have been saying on here for months that Real Madrid are muck after been watching practically all of their games over the past several seasons or so and tonight aswell as last week has really shown it. Could anyone honestly see Pool do this to United, Chelsea or Arsenal ?

    EDIT: before I get hounded take nothing away from Pools performance as they have been brilliant. Real are just overhyped because of who they are when the truth is this current side is rubbish.

    That would mean peno's.

    I can't see the pool going out though. I just hope it's a good match to get me set up for 2moro. :pac:

    "facepalm"

    Absolutely. Anyone know how many league matches they both played in?


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 16,392 ✭✭✭✭kaimera


    \o/

    Nando didn't touch pepe..reply shows that.

    peno...if henize hadn't made the arm movement it prolly wouldn't have been a peno, linesman called it and the liverpool player was prolly blocking his view so he saw henizes arm move and the ball as well. bit harsh but not complaining :)

    missed the third and the second half as am in work :(

    Nando does look very sharp and so up for it, <3 that man.

    Amazing first half that I saw. Keep it up guys.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 25,953 ✭✭✭✭kryogen


    What I said was check out the movement of Heinze's shoulder joint - I did not say it hit him on the shoulder.
    The shoulder joint moved forward throwing his arm forward.
    The ball hit the top front part of his arm just below the shoulder.
    If there was no intent Heinze's arm would't have moved as it did.

    IMO penalty



    oh dear, i wont even face palm that, its just too easy!

    but check out the rules of football, then some basic physics, then take off the glasses seriously!!! lol

    poor miss by Rauls standards there


    Mike this is an exceptionally bad day at the office from Real, they are not this bad.....i give credit to Liverpool, they have not let them play, not let them breath....Madrid are by no means a great team anymore of course, but they are not as bad as they have been tonight and its down to how Liverpool have unsettled them


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 36,777 ✭✭✭✭LuckyLloyd


    Another fantastic flowing move thwarted by a Cassillas save.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 6,543 ✭✭✭JerryHandbag


    Liverpool are a class act tonite, smothering the hell outta Madrid, this could end up 7-0! No-one will want them in the next round thats for sure....however terrible Real are, you can only beat whats in front of you....and they've made them look like MK Dons (no offence Dons fans :D)

    In all honesty, right at this exact moment in time, I couldn't give a flying fcuk about Saturday.
