Liverpool vs Real Madrid| CL Round of 16| Tuesday 21st February, 20:00 | Anfield

In two of the recent seasons when they ended up winning the league they were much worse than they are at the moment.

Never write off Real Madrid.

Not writing off anyone. It’s our form/mentality that will count. That’s all.

No hiding from the fact that they are favourites, but it’s not like our chances are minimal either. I had us as small favourites going into Paris, but also not more than that.

Could be different scenarios. Try and replicate a lot of the good stuff from last season’s game, but also add to it, try and improve. In a much better atmosphere, as we had no fans in 2021.

Hopefully it’s also not our last CL game at Anfield for a while


Was just adding their L to us in advance :+1:

Two things stopped us winning in Paris

1.The safety of the crowd pre kick-off unnerved us

2. Courtois and some of his jammy saves from our half-hearted attempts
We will win tomorrow
 No probs

I know it’s plausible with the amount of seasons Hodgson hung around for but have we ever faced three teams in row that’s been managed by one manager and with that a former manager.

With the way managers jump about I assume it’s happened but I doubt by a former manager.

Good to see NĂșñez is involved in proper training.

We don’t know if he only did that warm up part of it. Klopp said they would try and see how he reacts, is it painful, etc. Could be different in duels. But good sign that he’s there, maybe he can do it.

That’s the photo that makes me hopeful.

I assume this was after the PC.

I took plays as starts from what Klopp was saying. I played in goal on a massive dose of Ibroprofen bloody footballers today.

That was still from the opening part which is open to the public, the first 10 minutes or so. It was a rock, paper, scissors game with a bit of sprint. At the end of the passing session.

We will win following a Courtois howler.

When we were flying high and were better than them, they beat us. Now that we have been bad for most of the season, it stands to reason that we will beat them. It’s football and anything can happen. I think Darwin Nunez will be a key player in this tie.

Carlo Ancelotti on his relationship with Jurgen Klopp:

“We have a good relationship, we spent a year and a half together here in Liverpool during the pandemic. We texted and he gave me gifts [an e-cigarette], it’s true. He’s a very lovable person.” #lfc [goal]

We have no chance against Real Madrid. We may get a draw out of this match. I am dreading this one.
