The Liverpool FC Thread XIV

Original post by ClockEnderAFC

Like I said, nothing wrong with friendliness and respect between fans but you lot are taking the piss.

Not really. We have no reason to dislike Dortmund - they have brilliant atmosphere and support of their club, and we have Klopp in common.

It isn't over the top, it's nice.

The atmosphere inside that stadium is brilliant. Among the best I've ever seen.

Can you imagine being there right now?

Aye, nothing at all wrong with it. You are the Dortmund of the Premier League, and we're the Liverpool of the Bundesliga. The second leg will be an entirely different affair. After one of the teams lost (most likely), the friendship is pretty much on pause for the duration of the EL quarter finals I reckon.

We got completely opened up there. Lallana and Clyne oblivious.
They're so fluid it's ridiculous.

Sakho saves us with a brilliant block.

Precisely. We aren't as good as you but our styles are similar and I don't mind that in the slightest.

The game tonight is just about us holding on to make the 2nd leg competitive. Maybe a goal on the counter if we're lucky but we can't afford to let you in so easily like just then.

How did Lovren not score then??!!!

What a miss.

So far they're doing an excellent job holding off a team that is - on paper - better. Can go either way in my opinion. One/two solid counters and it's 2-0 Liverpool. Doubt we'd recover from that all too easily.

Well both teams have already had massive chances so I suppose it has cancelled out so far :tongue:

Perhaps, however with how freely you score I don't think being at Anfield will matter. Can't afford to switch off at all because let's be honest, we're facing a CL team here.

You're being quite optimistic. You should be the Dortmund fan here! So far all I've seen from us is passes into nothingness and mistakes that don't happen on regular Saturdays :tongue:
