Liverpool fans have started an online petition to try to get Barcelona forward Lionel Messi banned for the second leg of their Champions League semi-final for allegedly punching Reds midfielder Fabinho. (Mirror)

Any chance the whole of the premier league could band together and get salah banned for being a diving cheating cnut !

Totally agree. The run of form they have had has been there best since god knows when, but he relies on the fact he plays 2 defensive mids to protect the back four, and when they get the ball it is either launched forward asap to the front three, or it is up to robertson or the other wingback to run as fast up the pitch with it

Once that plan starts to not work, he doesn’t know how to change it

3. 3 defensive mids. Even when Keita or Lallana starts, they play far deeper than their natural position.
 
Klopp getting stick for his selection the other night, but I feel like that's with hindsight of the 3-0 scoreline rather than the way the match went. The xG stats from the game were 2.7 - 1.6, so really, Barca winning by one would have been a fairer reflection of the overall game. Can't really blame Klopp for his players not taking their chances and/or Messi scoring that free kick.
 
If the Barcelona Police recognise any Liverpool fans who attacked the City coach, could you please help the Merseyside Police identify them, while the Liverpool Police help you not to identify any Liverpool fans who misbehaved in Barcelona.


Statement on incident in Barcelona


Merseyside Police officers are aware of an incident in Barcelona last night (Wednesday, 1 May) involving a Liverpool fan.

We are working with Spanish Police and assisting them with their enquiries.

Superintendent Paul White said: “We are liaising with Spanish Police, the British Embassy, UEFA, the Football Intelligence Unit in Merseyside and Liverpool Football Club, who are all working to keep fans safe and ensure an enjoyable experience in Barcelona. We want to reassure the public that we can potentially act on any criminal matters dealt with by Spanish Police by utilising football legislation in the UK.

“This type of behaviour is wholly unacceptable and I want to remind fans who are travelling with tickets to monitor official fan advice on the Club’s official website and social media feeds for information to assist their visit. Given the vigilance of police and security around the stadium, we would encourage fans to arrive in plenty of time.

“I would also encourage people to look after their own personal safety by taking some simple precautions – look after your money and belongings, stay together in groups, drink sensibly and give yourself plenty of time to get to the ground."

We can confirm six men were arrested by Spanish Police last night (Tuesday 30 April) on suspicion of public order offences following an unrelated incident.

The XG stats probably gave Messi a 1 in 1000 chance of scoring that free when it should be about 1 in 5. They're not accurate when it comes to Messi.
