I'm running the Manchester marathon in a few weeks, thinking of getting 7-0 printed on a Liverpool shirt to wear for it 

You should yes. It might help you run faster

Its all about the marginal gains..

No United fans in Manchester you'll be fine.. different story if you were running the London one

Wow didn't see that coming. Liverpool were unbelievable, not sure what Gary Neville meant when he said they didn't play well.
Should really jumpstart their season.

Is Mo Salah now in the conversation for Liverpool's greatest ever player?

Is Mo Salah now in the conversation for Liverpool's greatest ever player?

He's still exactly 100 league goals behind Ian Rush, with Rushie being 15 behind Roger Hunt.

No doubt he's magic though!

6 months too late 

As for being the best Liverpool player ever. Not yet... not to say he won't get there eventually, but he's a way to go to overtake Rush as someone else said. Best player this century? Maybe. Its getting tight between him and the other obvious choice... (Origi).

[jcpen]

So are ye saying Rush is the greatest ever? I would have thought Gerrard and Daglish were and I think Salah has earned the right to be mentioned in the that conversation, not saying he is the greatest ever but wouldn't Gerrard and Daglish be ahead of Rush also despite not scoring as many as him?

Great time for Gaaboard to crash!

Crashed like a few records.

Liverpool the first team in Champions League history to take a 2-0 lead but then lose the game by a three-goal margin and before tonight the most goals Liverpool had conceded in European match in Anfield was 3 goals.

A few records crashed yesterday also, you haven't been as quick to mention them though

Uefa is to refund Liverpool fans who had tickets for the 2022 Champions League final in Paris.

It follows a recent independent report that found Uefa bears "primary responsibility" for the chaotic scenes before the game against Real Madrid. Fans were penned in and sprayed with tear gas outside Paris' Stade de France as kick-off was delayed by 36 minutes. Uefa said the refund scheme "covers all of the Liverpool FC ticket allocation for the final, i.e. 19,618 tickets". "We have taken into account a huge number of views expressed both publicly and privately and we believe we have devised a scheme that is comprehensive and fair," said Uefa general secretary Theodore Theodoridis. "We value the input from the Liverpool FC supporter organisations Spirit of Shankly and Liverpool Disabled Supporters Association as well as the open and transparent dialogue throughout this period. "We recognise the negative experiences of those supporters on the day and with this scheme we will refund fans who had bought tickets and who were the most affected by the difficulties in accessing the stadium."

Liverpool were also part of the process of securing refunds for their fans and, as supporters bought tickets from them directly rather than Uefa, the club will administer the process. Uefa and French authorities initially blamed ticketless fans for the events outside the stadium. The report, which Uefa commissioned after the 28 May final, said there was "no evidence" to support the "reprehensible" claims. It added that "it is remarkable no one lost their life" and the collective action of Liverpool supporters was "probably instrumental" in preventing "more serious injuries and deaths" outside the stadium. The report made 21 recommendations in an attempt to ensure "everything possible is done" to prevent any similar incident happening again at a major sporting event.

Spirit of Shankly and the Liverpool Disabled Supporters' Association said they "welcomed" the "unprecedented" refund from Uefa. "With a promise to reimburse supporters, Uefa have gone some way to acknowledging their part in the fiasco," said a statement. But it does not excuse Uefa, exempt them from criticism or lessen the need for them to implement all of the recommendations made by the independent inquiry. "We will work alongside Liverpool and publish details once we know how and when refunds will be processed." Liverpool manager Jurgen Klopp, whose side lost 1-0 to Real Madrid in the final, said it was "super important" that the club's fans had been exonerated for the situation which occurred before the game.

A law firm representing Liverpool fans in a claim against Uefa relating to events in Paris has said it "will be pushing ahead with our legal claim to seek appropriate compensation for our clients", while another said "our legal case is still progressing".

How the narrative has changed since that night.

[laoislad]

Rewatching this morning. Wife says I'm obsessed.
I tried to explain the significance of it.
I said that I know I said last year that a score like 5-0 would never happen again, but THIS will never happen again. 

No matches on that interest me tonight so I'm gonna watch it again tonight.
Do yourself a favour and watch the Peter Drury commentary of it, it's brilliant.

A few on here who couldn't wait to comment at the time aren't so vocal now.

Indeed.

The fact Real scored 5 at Anfield is irrelevant as no away goals rule so Liverpool just need to win by 3 regardless of scoreline to bro G to extra time which is not inconceivable against the 2nd best team in Spain. If Real concede first they will be under massive pressure. Liverpool at 12/1 to qualify is a good bet.

Real conceded twice before scoring, under pressure?  I don't think will faze them if Liverpool bring that game they have in their locker, they just need to stop Real scoring and who knows.. 12/1 is a rubbish bet tbf, that should be at least 20/1

Ancelotti has Liverpool's number. And Real are not going to turn in a basket case performance like United did on Sunday. Especially not on their own patch.

Yep,not a hope they actually go through to the next round, hopefully they come out of it with a bit of pride restored anyway. A narrow win or a draw and then move on with the rest of the season and put everything into getting Top 4.
In reality the Bournemouth game is more important than the Madrid game.
