Absolutely loving weird that Liverpool are in a Champions League final, especially since this is their first time back in the tournament since that shithouse Rogers performance a few years ago.

I apologize for mocking the liverpool lads for being apprehensive, I was clearly wrong and if it wasn't for some madrid-like refereeing mishaps then liverpool would have pulled off the fuckup

Ronald is going to tear off his shirt and flex at Salah (whose chest looks like a little boy’s, except hairy) until Salah starts to cry and runs off the pitch.

Shop around for doctors! Always fucking shop for doctors. Doctors are stupid assholes. And they get by because people are cowed by their mystical bullshit quality of being able to maintain a 3.0 GPA at some Guatemalan medical college for 3 semesters. Find one that makes sense.
Holy poo poo, CL Final, insane. That had to be the easiest knockout path ever: Porto, a city side who had the title in the bag and were going through a mini-collapse and Roma. And still the most Liverpool of rides.

If you're not striving to improve, you'll end up going backwards.
We essentially conceded 4 garbage time goals. 2 when we were coasting at 5-0 in the first leg then 2 in the 2nd. Both had really suspect penalties in there too.

I don't think Madrid will hose us.

We get ahead and then lose focus...thats about all you really need to know tbh.


Final prediction, Liverpool will either win the game in the first 30 mins or lose it in the last 20

I don't know if you want to go down that route. It wasn't like Madrid was trying particularly hard that match. They were resting a lot of players too, from what I remember.

Seeing the CL line-ups against Madrid that season were supposedly the catalyst for Gerrard's decision to retire. You could see why Rodgers was doing it, but you can also see why it'd suck the morale out of a dressing room too.

I think it will be interesting to see if Liverpool's tactics perform as well as they did against City. Madrid seemed to take their time passing through Bayern whenever Bayern pressed, and they had a pretty reasonable amount of success. If Liverpool can't turn over Modric, I don't know how they get the ball in transition to everyone who is fast.
