It's easy to knowck the Europa League, but if this could be the only way to get in the Champions League then they have to really go all out to win it

The only thing winning the Europa League qualifies you for is the Europa League again.

NEW LIVERPOOL THREAD - EVERYONE LOVES BABEL (Agger and Ngog)

 

[washingcattle]

Aggers goal was beautiful stick him up front in emergencies. Di Maria's a greasy little bollox isn't he ? He destroyed our teenage defence over there when they hammered us. What the fuck was Babel thinking ? He was actually touching the ref when he raised his hand. Gobshite.

Benetez gets real according to the BBC

Fernando Torres is now on the bench in his coat. Presumably, he's being saved for Thursday. Maybe Rafa Benitez considers the Europa League a more realistic target than fourth?

 

[I Bleed Black]

He also might have taken him off because he looked knackered and barely had a kick all game. Personally I'd have left him on but Ngog did look a lot more lively and in fairness had three good chances and should have won it for us. Can't see us getting fourth now tbh.

 

[washingcattle]

Didn't see it but there tearing into him on most boards. mainly people can't see why he wouldn't be more positive and put two up front. considering how absolutely vital three points were n' all.

 

[evil bandit]

Gerrard's reaction to Torres being subbed for N'Gog !

 

[Cormcolash]

Maybe he was just like that when he saw N'Gog coming on instead of Babel

I have a similar expression everytime I see your name appearing around here.

 

[Cormcolash]

Sorry Wheels, hope I'm not annoying you, snigger

 

[I Bleed Black]

New home kit, I likes it.

Get in there! Torres is a beautiful man.
Its still better to be in the UEFA Cup than no cup at all, ce n'est pas?

magic finish for the 4th. quality.

gwan the lucas as well. joined in the total football for the 2nd and old school english challenge for the 4th.

i get the impression that lucas would now thrive in a european context. he was all over the pitch, kicking and harrying and a superb finish. Benitez has toughened him up so that he'd look good playing for a top team in portugal, spain maybe. the portuguese league gives a false impression, doesn't it. is angel di aria the new simao? he looks slight and he was bossed out of it by the kuyt-johnson matrix. in a way you'd suspect leo messi wouldn't settle for. 20 mil for that? benifica did what they do, they relied on aimar falling over occasionally to get some free kicks in and around the box. i can tell you, it felt pretty sweet to beat the cunts.

the goal keeper's shinanagans there at the end reminded me of oceano (or was it secretario) spending about 10 minutes lying on, and refusing to leave, the pitch back in 01, while his porto team tried to regroup. have that, you fuckers. have it.

isn't it gas, liverpool might actually get to this final... if they'd waited a year it would be at lansdowne road!!

here's praying for fifth place.

 

[trev]

benfica who were scoring goals for fun all season...(how many against the toffifees?) needed 2 penos and a freekick to score. no goal fro open play. couple of harsh decisions in there as well...that may not have been given save for all those apes in blue standing all over the pitch.
