Empower yourself 1st . Worst adrenaline rush i have ever seen
Devil is crying behold the power of Spaniards.?
Liverpool, the best team in the planet that already won the Premier in december, can't beat the 5th of La Liga.
"Schooled me to the game, now I know my duty. Stay humble, stay low, blow like Hootie."
Unfortunately I can not quote chapter and verse, but I'm pretty sure the bible teaches us that.
Since the fixture is at Anfield, there will be prem refs and you know what that means
Imagine been the home team and having 28% possession lol. Sure they won but a so called "top team" playing like that at home is a bit embarrassing
This time anfield won't come into help and liverpool will not qualify. Atletico's defense are not a joke and they do not mind defending for a whole game ! Anfield will not help them against atletico in my opinion.
Literally go watch Salah win a ball cleanly against Lodi and then tell me
Nothing new with atl Madrid, no surprises. Divers..
I didnt see the match. How did Atletico play?
Yessir
Calm your knickers Stevie. Given Athletico a pathway to win? Bollocks. We'll turn them over at Anfield
The surprising thing is how does Morata still play in the big teams
The ‘dark arts’ such as trying to get someone sent off is genius apparently while diving is ruing the game. There’s no difference
Though, Liverpool are winning this season but Liverpool are sore losers, whenever they lose, they start crying after it.For ex: Champions league final against Madrid and most of the 50-50 decisions in Premier League has gone in favor of Liverpool this season and when for once something doesn't go there way they start crying like a bunch of babies.
Simone teached the entire ELP-Team how even a "farmer's team" can beat the "unstoppable" Liverpool. Love it.
Just remember that at about this time last year, Atletico made the mistake of riling CR7 up. Look how that turned out……
Liverpool should be careful. ATM, when on their toes and on their game, will disappoint ANY side placed in front of them. They did it to Peps Barca at Camp Nou and RM at the Bernabéu so why couldn’t they to Liverpool at Anfield? The only reason why ATM lost the tie against Juve was bc of one man and that’s CR7 which Liverpool don’t have.
Perhaps we should start a campaign to get Klopp replaced by big Stevie!
As a liverpool fan, I can frankly accept that A M unbreakable on that night. They played Very well deserved the win, good on them.
See what happens @Anfield.
Forget the first leg get back to Anfield and sort it out liverpool, Atletico will win nothing playing football like that though so negative!
Can’t listen to him, take him out! What team does he support?
I don`t like the way they play because its boring, however I`ll take 0-1 on the away leg happily as I know we will get 3 or 4 at Anfield. The game might actually be watchable without all the retarded whistling
Does Klopp really expect rivals to play to Liverpools strength?
Steve, even though u may are right,
U have no right to talk about our Klopp like that
Liver pool 2-1… atleti go through 🙂
Shut up steve ya div
Everyone’s now Liverpool on Anfield ask Barca will tell you
Liverpool are dead costa will be back
klopp usually cries when outmached…cried about bayern copying him when they defeated him in ucl 2013
So, because they dive and cheat in Spain, it should be accepted by every other country. THEY WILL BE DISPENSED WITH AT ANFIELD!
"you don't go spouting your mouth out" Stevie Nicol 2020
That's how they play
Didn't LFC know that ?
Wth man
"Cry babies" is a misrepresentation of what the Liverpool camp´s comments. They gave credit to Atleti´s tactics and basically said: "Welcome to Anfield in three weeks".
So is Simone training players how to DIVE ??????????????
The so called pundits.
When it's Mourinho…he is outdated…
The ref was useless and thats the truth especially 2nd half
Why everyone is being afraid of Atletico Madrid?? Because they know Atletico Madrid can beat Liverpool again..
Corner taken quickly SAULL!!! ??
Liverpool might still go through but I agree! Those comments were bs,Klopp knew how Atleti would play now he wants to pretend he is shocked
Does He expect Atletico to play like Liverpool? He is trying to adapt to a new way of life away from premier league.
Liverpool need to play 3-4-3 vs Athi on return leg. They will defo play 4-5-1. To break down the bus they need to over run the midfield with Firmino dropping into CAM role.

Every manager has a moan when they lose. Jeez a 1, 0 loss to athletico ain't that bad. .
Looserpool players, coach and fans expect rival teams to open their defense and ask them “ please score”
They should've expected it, Jurgen's fault for not telling his players this would happen.
