They say anything about the penalty on the post match? I thought the ref got a little caught up in the moment.

"His hand was in an unnatural position"

"He had plenty of time to move it"

"Made himself big"

 

I've seen those handballs NOT get called more than they get called.

It hit his stomach/chest first and then his arm, which was at his side. Not sure what he's supposed to do with his arms in that situation. 

Klopp says Chamberlain's injury is pretty bad. That really sucks.

Help us Naby Keita. You're our only hope.

It sucks for a number of reasons as it also might keep him off England's WC roster. The guy has been such a solid piece. We did fine without him but he would be incredible to have if we go on to play Bayern/Real Madrid.

So all systems go for Chelsea or go B team and concede the points to them?

We play Stoke first and I think there's enough time between today, Saturday and the semi on Wednesday to go full strength for all three. If we beat Stoke, that nearly sews up 4th. 

 

Then we can get creative with the lineup for Chelsea.

The avalanche of goals today made Liverpool the only club in history to have 3 players score atleast 8 goals in a single champions campaign

And milner has all time assist record in champions league...

Firmino 2 behind....

We now have a midfield crisis. Down to our last 3 for the run in. Pray to Fowler they all stay healthy.

The two goals by Roma hurt because it forces us to go with a full strength squad next week after Stoke and before Chelsea. A 5 goal lead would've allowed us to sit guys in Rome in prep for Chelsea. Now it'll be full strength in all 3. Legs could be heavy.

What's the latest word on Lallana and Can? I thought I heard they were done for the season and then I heard maybe not. Chelsea is 11 days away. I know Lallana was in South Africa for treatment. Would be great if one or both could somehow make it back for Chelsea or even Brighton. 

The key is to beat Stoke. We need 4 points from Stoke, at Chelsea and Brighton. That should be a piece of cake. Although, beating West Brom with a 2 goal lead should've been cake too. 

Also, Roma's squad is as thin as ours and they've played more games in recent weeks than we have. I'd be more worried about their legs, if I were a Roma fan. 

I also don't see why you can't sub guys out after an hour instead of after 80 or 85 minutes. 

Doubt either of these happen, but 1.) play Clyne at RB and Trent in midfield or 2.) recall Grujic.

Is the latter even a possibility? Obviously our CL midfield is Hendo/Milner/Gini but for Stoke I wouldn't mind getting creative. Stoke is absolute shit – Grujic could do a job there.

Pretty devastating for Ox. Put together easily his best season as a professional and will almost certainly miss out on the World Cup. (I haven't seen any update but that looked like an ACL.)

Grujic has to play for Cardiff till the end of the season. He can't be recalled early according to the Echo.

Good news.  We're up 5-2 going into the away leg.

I get the consternation, but the last time a team came back in the CL/European Cup semis down 3-0 was in 1986 when Barcelona did it.  The last time anyone scored five goals was in '95 when Ajax beat Bayern 5-2 in the second leg.

IMO, Roma coming back on Barca only a couple of weeks ago only helps Klopp keep the boys focused.  If that doesn't happen, the danger is the same and no doubt the team is confident and 1986 might as well be 1956 to them.  Most of them probably watched that game a couple weeks back.  I have little doubt that we won't be focused.

Also good, we only have a a max of five games left.  As much rest as we could ask for between now and Saturday and more importantly then and Wednesday.  Fitness through those two games should be fine.  

Hoping for Ox, but it doesn't seem good.  The bigger downer right now is Sean Cox, the Liverpool supporter from Ireland attacked by the Roma fans.  Makes me scared for what might happen there next week and our fans reaction to it.  

Not surprising, but doesn't conflict with other reports that he could be back for the beginning of the season.

 

 

Poor guy. Sucks for us in the short term and sucks for him long term with the World Cup miss. Time for Gini to step up.

So Keita is already in, we need a replacement for Can, and now with Ox out an extended period I think we need at least one more versatile attacker/mid. Any ideas who we might go after?

These guys know what's up and are paying attention.

 

TAA - “Barcelona were three goals up after the home tie (in the quarter-final against Roma) and you cannot count your opponent out, especially when we have seen ourselves they can do special things at their place – we’ll have that in the back of our mind.

“But we’ll just focus on ourselves knowing maybe scoring a couple of goals there will finish the game off.”

From the championship:

ruben neves

ryan sessegnon 

james maddison

 

From the league:

Mario Lemina

abdoulaye doucoure

 

From the continent:

max meyer

Bruno fernandez 

jorghino (probably going to City)

piotr zielenski

Kerem Demirbay

Reminds me of last year when Paris won 4-0 at home and Barcelona came back. The next series, Juventus when up 3-0 on Barcelona and Juventus learned to not let Barcelona do it again.

My summer wish list:

Jorginho

Ryan Sessegnon

Christian Pulisic

Richarlison

Lucas has said he wants to be with the LFC fans in the away end in Rome next week.

Hell, with this injury rate to midfielders, put him on the pitch.

Per Paul Joyce, Ox's injury is not believed to be a cruciate tear. They're optimistic he'll be back by the start of pre-season training in July.

Wow! That's fantastic news. 9 months was making the rounds yesterday. 

That's great for him. Hope he's able to make the trip to America. Got my single for Charlotte though I know nothing about the city.

Wow.  Apparently Stevie G is 1/2 favorite for the Manager job at Glasgow Rangers.

Heard that this morning. Would be a good test for him. He needs to get away from Liverpool and have some success before he comes back and Manages us to more European Cups.

Not sure I agree with that. Why wouldn't you want him learning under Klopp for as long as he's managing the club?

Good point. I wonder how much time he spends with Klopp? Regardless, I wouldn't want him as Manager until he proved he can win at a big club.

I see merit in both. Cutting your teeth at a lower level with less pressure isn't a bad thing. He's going to make mistakes and it's better for him and everyone if he makes them and learns away from a club like Liverpool as your first job.

This seems a lot like the plan for Major Applewhite to come home and take over the Longhorns from Mack Brown. Which was a terrible idea.

Klopp on Oxlade injury: "It's not fair but if you get a lemon you have to make lemonade out of it. We will wait for him like a good wife when the man is in prison." 

 

I love our Manager.

 

Mane with an injury Klopp is being vague about. Could rest for Stoke, could play.

Loved the Pod.  It's actually part of a 1 hour special airing on NBCSN on May 6.

Agreed.

Does anyone on hear subscribe to Redmen TV?  Their podcasts and their free "story of the match" videos crack me up.  Wondering if the stuff behind the pay wall is worth a few bucks a month.

I watch them on YouTube for the post match yelling and screaming fans. Good stuff.

I like the free articles of Paul's that I've read but they can be a little tl;dr sometimes. 

I have a TAW subscription but that's it.
