That rarely works out well. Reassure me.
Every c*nt is talking like we're in the semis

After seeing that draw, I've got a semi.
But seriously though. Totally should not be underestimating the Portuguese diving team.

Ha. We are in the semi. Porto cannot deal with the pace of our play. They might give us a game for 45 mins but that’s it.
They had chances at 0-0 in the away leg last year until we scored.

I thought the same, but we aren't that team that does better when we are the underdog anymore. They could still beat us but generally we are worse against better teams.
It’s football, there is always a chance of losing. But we’re better and more experienced and I have to say playing a two-legged CL tie feels like a relief from the title race - there is no pressure to win every single time, a single loss or draw can still be rectified.
I would argue offensively we are way worse so I don’t see blowing them
Away like last year.
Put your house on it and do NOT cash out.
No thanks.
You should not have answered. Just like you should not have cashed out. What's done is done now, but for next season think before you speak.
If you didn't cash out we would've won. Why don't you get this?
You’d have lost your original stake. That’s all.
Ha ha. If only. I was actually thinking today if Klopp had won it last year he’d have surpassed Rafa. As of right now he’s still just a shade behind him
That’s a terrible way to look at it not to mention wrong,
Hes behind Everyone except Budgie and Mr Rodgers.
He hasnt won a trophy yet. Hes built a good team and got us to compete, but hes been spectacular at losing when it counts.
If he left today im not sure what his legacy would be.
We need to win trophies not friends.
I disagree Pat. The money that left your bank account is all you bet. The MAXIMUM loss you’d have.
I had £20 on a horse at Cheltenham. It was potentially worth £240. During the race it went £80 cash out. I didn’t have that £80 to lose. I ended up losing £20.
Indeed.
Allow me Doc...
I think I can offer some reassurance.
Maybe it’s the increasing communication in the world and the constant unending chatter but some of the changes brought about via things such as YouTube and Twitter and sites like this...
So much attention being paid that we’ve lost focus on what we are actually truly looking at...
No team in the last 8 are mugs, none of them. I’m not sure Jinxes really exist but I was taught many many years ago not to tweak the noses of the football Gods and I’m not gonna start now...
Porto got smashed by us last year but that doesn’t mean they will get smashed again. As it happens I suspect we are extremely nifty and one of the strongest teams left in the tournament but that doesn’t mean anything until you win the game.
Far too much being said, lots of attention, but lots of people don’t seem to be seeing it...
Tomorrow it is possible that we return to being top of the league, God willing, and we’ve just beaten Bayern Munich away in Munich.
Yet again we win but seemingly yet again it’s only because our opponents aren’t as good as they were, they are aging etc etc... yadda yadda yadda...
Tomorrow ( please God) we can go top and in April we got Porto in the quarters of the CL.
But but.... We haven’t “clicked” up front have we.... apart from the 44 goals from the front 3 in the league... mind you it is 2 goals less than they had dug out last season at this stage...
But we are bottling it arent we... yeah one defeat all season in the league... and that was narrow...
But Bayern were stale and past it... yeah Bayern are shit aren’t they... and they lack experience in the CL...
God knows if we win the double or not... I certainly don’t ... and it could be horrific if we narrowly miss out on the league and lose in the CL final again...
We should really talk about Salah...
And Klopps record in finals...
How about we just take an actual closer look.
Even if we don’t win the CL and we finish second... Where were we three years ago when Klopp arrived?
Here’s a question... apart from lunatic Porto fans hungry for revenge do you think Porto wanted to draw us? I truly doubt it.
I wonder why not?
They didn’t want to draw us because we are very very very fucking nifty.
We just bossed Bayern in their own backyard and despite not really “playing well” and lacking “click” despite “bottling it” etc etc we are pretty fucking close to being top of the league whilst being opposed by one of the greatest teams in Premier league history.
I don’t know about you Doc but all this is reason enough for me to keep watching, I’ll just do it with my eyes open, and I can see that we are very VERY nifty.
100%
At that moment in time you have 80 quid you decide to essentially get 80 to win 240.
Just like me letting it stand would have been the same as getting 6600 on Us to beat Madrid. That’s a huge bet regardless how confident I was.
His legacy would be that he’d leave a much healthier team behind than any other manager has in 3 decades. And he WILL win a major trophy anyway, I’m certain.
You don't have to win to be a winner. And he's a winner.
Oh No! We've become the cunts we accuse Everton of being.
Now that is offensive!!
Ged left the bulk of a CL, FA Cup and Super cup winning side behind
So tempted to do your stupid ‘as you were’ bollocks back at you.
I must have missed the time Ged won us the Champions League.
You can also list our current players versus the ones Rafa inherited. If you think that squad was stronger than the one Klopp would leave behind if he left now, all the power to you.
