Imagine telling the result to my 6 year old this morning.

Not sure which one is more likely now. The league or CL title. Miracles do happen I suppose but hard to believe. The good thing is that the team is young, we had just Milner over 30 on the pitch tonight. Think Barca had 6 starting.

Well in it. Proud of the performance so far. Just a shame that Bobby isn’t fully fit.

Statement from the club now.

f*** your dead skull

So are we saying that Man City don’t often lose unless they get behind first...?

Thanks.

Oh? That’s a bummer.

Oh my God, what have we become?

Napoli - LFC 1-0 Red Star - LFC 2-0 PSG - LFC 2-1 Bayern - LFC 1-3 Porto - LFC 1-4 Barcelona - LFC ?-? Our opponents always score

Think we’ll win this, you know.

No I know. But it helps to put this season into context and anyone who doesn’t recognise the brilliance of this team is frankly an idiot.

I do like this.

Sturridge off at half time please. He’s just too slow, no hiding that anymore.

I appreciate that and as I said I might have genuinely missed some bits to put this into proper context. Just that I’ve not seen any of it.

I’ve been having this feeling that it’s this year or potentially never if we are to win the league. I know that’s a bit drama queen but I genuinely feel the financially boosted powerhouses like City, PSG and Chelsea a few years back are taking over the mantle for good. I was 12 when we last won the league and being an OOC I didn’t really have anywhere near the exposure (or as a result, interest) to our games compared to this day and age. So almost thirty years on and I’m starting to think I might never find out what it would feel like to win the league. Luckily there have been great, great moments along the way. Much better than most fans of other clubs ever get to experience. But still I’ve started to feel rather sad and poignant about where football is heading and the potential for us to win titles as well. I’ve tried not to get that sort of an idea into my son’s head as he has much longer to endure life as a Liverpool fan than me! But yesterday I happened to see Jürgen’s press conference for Huddersfield and something changed. I got a proper warm feeling inside (wasn’t pissing myself, I checked) when he was talking about this being the beginning with this team, no matter what happens in the title race this year. You could see he genuinely believes this and is confident that he and the team will deliver the title sooner rather than later. That was enough for me. I was watching him like a young son looks up to his father. I had a chat with my son in the evening and we kind of agreed not to let it get to us too much if we fall short this year. Oh and then we remembered we have the CL to look forward to as well. The same CL, the final of which we made last year, you know. So thanks Jürgen for being my therapist. It really helps to have you around.

You what now? You reckon Pogba is getting some extra stick due to his skin colour? I might have potentially missed something but to me he has been proper s***e and yet still made the team of the year etc.

Well...

This is it. Next 45 determines whether we become champions.

They weren’t very good today to be fair. But will be difficult for United to hold on for much longer than 3 minutes on Wednesday. Is that the length of their run? Just f*** off

Everyone’s second team is getting close now.

We need to anyway.

Ok, whenever you’re ready.

Hold for another 8 minutes. Score. Defend for your lives.

Good job they didn’t score, way too much time still left.
