Champions League Final Liverpool v Spurs

[chaddblue]

with VAR arriving next season the Dippers will not be achieving that number any time soon

I wouldn’t put any faith in VAR. we’ve seen in the last few months and last night that it can’t be trusted to rectify refereeing errors

Just gives them more time to come up with the ‘decision they want’ and then the blame is on an unknown person sat in a room hundreds of miles away rather than the clown on the pitch

You may be right about VAR and penalties but not offsides.

Very true , offsides are black and white , similar to goal line technology VAR is going to make a difference to a lot of results next season

You might not like it but it’s true.

Don't confuse great with good

No point in sour grapes let that be a scouse thing. The truth is that although this was the worst final in living memory it will be more remembered for the Barca comeback which has to be admired Also fair do"s to wio and jug ears who did suggest that we were magnificent in taking what they really aimed for way back in August i personally have no love for this competition but its clear our owners and gaffer,do SO it must become priority for next season

That streaker was the highlight

Even that was a bit underwhelming.
They knew how to do it properly back in the day.

Liverpool finished one point behind City last season, and but for a matter of millimetres that could have been reversed, so if you don't think they are a great team, then by your own standards, neither are this City team. Which by the way, as a neutral is utter fucking nonsense. Those who are demeaning this Liverpool team on here are no better than the same idiots who do it to City on RAWK and need to grow up.

Last nights game was poor, agreed, but i think that was mainly due to the early Liverpool goal meaning that they never really got out of 3rd / 4th gear. This Liverpool and this City team will go on and have a few more years of fighting out between each other for the major honours, which as a football fan is going to be great, and i can see City coming out on top more often than not.

Boring football, low pace, a match to forget. But a major title in the history book.
So, what did we learn from that rotten match?

Sadly and most importantly in CL ko matches: DON'T CONCEDE. ANY.
That's all.
4 goals vs spurs simply being far too much.

If we still try to win all 4 competitions it could helpful to win the league early.
Without lucky dippers we would have been nearly out of reach in early April before CL QFs kick off.

On the other hand, Barca and Juve did win their league early but still went out...

What do we need then?
Pure luck? More confidence on big nights?
More defensive tightness?

Fine margins and all that.
Mané chipped the ball intentionally to Sissoko's arm and the outcome for dipper's matchplan was immense.
Final won, Let's talk about six, Jurgen Cupp and more to come.
