Champions League


Morgan

Recommended Posts

Since the 'search' facility doesn't appear to be working yet (and I can't be bothered going back through millions of pages to find the old thread) I thought I'd start a new one.

 

Some good games tonight and, for me , the pick of the bunch are:

 

NK Maribor v Liverpool (mainly because it's a bit of a 'must win' for Klopp.

 

Man. City v Napoli (should be a cracker as both teams are going great guns).

 

Real Madrid v Tottenham (just think it'll be good)

 

Monaco v Besiktas (Monaco really need a win to get going in their group).

 

So, for me it's 2-1 Liverpool, 3-2 City, 2-1 Monaco and 2-2.in the Bernabeu.

We had season tickets for four years between 2008 and 2012.

 

Nice wee stadium, think it holds just over 17000.

 

The home support is terrible and the ground only really fills up when Nice, Marseille, PSG and, to a lesser degree, St Etienne come to town.

 

Their Ultras consist of two men, a dog and a drum!!

Liverpool can book themselves into the knockout stages as they have Maribor back to back, Maribor might have something to say about that but if Liverpool can't get six out of six against Maribor they don't deserve to go through.

 

Klopp is a fantastic manager but does need more time as Liverpool's team isn't a completed unit now.

 

Real Madrid vs Tottenham should be a belter.

Can't see anything but a Bayern win there Huey.

 

Good luck to you though if you put the bet on.

Read somewhere that the Napoli president has hinted he wants to play a weaker team  at city as they are top of league and play second place inter on Saturday.

 

Could be bull but think city might win this one given that and their form.

2 of the best footballing sides in world football playing,  Man city v Napoli,  should be an absolute cracker.

 

 

 

Forza Napoli!!

Shame that. Fantastic venue and potentially great football. I was at the Monaco v Porto Champions League Final in 2004. Wanted them to win as they'd knocked out Chelsea in semi. Fans seemed decent but why wouldn't you be in a euro final?

Liverpool won't attract a manager any better than Klopp IMO. Ancelotti is available but Klopp is a much better fit for Liverpool.

 

Klopp should be given time. Will he?

 

I'm almost sure he will. Unless an elite club comes in for him which I can't see at all.

No Robertson again for Liverpool 

 

 

 

It's a shame but he will be a squad player at Liverpool nothing more.

Is he though? How much has he actually achieved. That's a genuine question btw. I don't see he's done much more than Rodgers did at Liverpool.

If given time he will prove to be a wise appointment mate.

 

Klopp is a better manager than Rodgers that much is quite clear IMO.

Seem pretty similar in their approach. That Liverpool defence is honking but they're good going forward all just a repeat of Rodgers time?

Just lacking players to produce something special often enough.

 

Klopp's football quite demanding. Quite a brave approach. Or like others he just isn't flexible enough.

Rodgers had Suarez though? 

 

Klopp got Liverpool to the CL in first season and also got the club to Europa League Final and League Cup Final but ultimately lost those.

That was a fabulous result for Tottenham.

 

Pochettino has build a fine side could be the furthest to go out of the the English Clubs IMO.

Eight good games tonight but the two that I'll be looking out for in particular are Chelsea v Roma and Bayern v Celtic.

 

Hoping for a Roma win and a Bayern win.

 

1-2 at Stamford Bridge and 4-0 in Munich

We agree!

 

I hope they get absolutely humped and then take it out on the Lochenders at the weekend.
