Oblak showed why he vies with Alisson for #1 in the world. Adrian showed why he is a reserve keeper. Terrible clearance; immediately followed by terrible positioning for the shot. Rarely do I blame individuals but there is no getting away from the fact that he cost us the tie. Alisson's injury cost us big time as many feared it would. Cannot knock the performance even if the finishing was a bit hurried at times. 34 shots with 11 on target tells the story of the game but Oblak and the two centre backs (bet City wish they still had Savic! who was superb in both legs) managed to repel the waves of attacks. Just the PL left now....as long a the virus allows us to complete the season. Not a bad consolation!???? We should have had a better quality reserve keeper, no disrespect to Adrian, but we've been here before with Karius, 2 matches ending the CL ride by massive keeper errors.

Think every club has certain key players that they can't cope without and your goalie is certainly in that category. Yes you are correct about Savic. He and Nastasić were both young players with great potential who were shipped out prematurely and unnecessarily. <deleted> off our game was postponed because if it hadn't been I would have then watched your extra time and had an even better day than I'm having now.

Diouf with the winning goal, Sergio Aguero got sent off in the 73rd minute. Maxi Lopez and Forlan and Jose Reyes also playing Atleti. Solid Bolton team that... can't think of a more complimentary word for Kevin Davies anyway. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RickG16 Posted March 12, 2020 Share Posted March 12, 2020 Scott McTominay was asked in today's presser... as a United fan, if Liverpool didn't win the league due to a coronavirus suspension, would you be happy? Very cheeky question, and he dealt with it quite well. Anyway.... does anyone know if this is a serious possibility? For the record, I think the right thing to do would be to award them the title and use the league table at is stands. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Whilst that works for the Title destination given our lead, it will cause big problems for other clubs involved in Euro qual, relegation and promotion. Postponing the Euros in the summer will at least give some breathing space to extend the season. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

"According to The Independent, team officials want the current season to be null and void, and disagree with the Premier League's decision to continue with the season as normal. Others are said to be firmly against the idea of playing games behind closed doors, with Pep Guardiola stating he wanted to avoid having empty stadiums. If the season was voided, it would mean Liverpool miss out on being crowned English champions for the first time in 31 years, despite the fact they could have won the title this weekend. The season being voided would also be good news for the likes of Norwich City, Aston Villa and Bournemouth, who would all avoid being relegated."

Chivas Posted March 13, 2020 Share Posted March 13, 2020 The season needs to be declared null and void now. Frankly it would deny my own team promotion but would be well worth it to see the look on Kloppers face plus the rest of the whinging bin dippers..... 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bredbury Blue Posted March 13, 2020 Share Posted March 13, 2020 The logical answer would be to take a break of all football for a few weeks and see where we are then. Reading the other day how one season finished in June and Leeds played a European tie in the September of the next season. If they force teams to play games with a 2 day turnaround anything is possible. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think the Euros will be postponed until 2021. I think EPL will be suspended until relative containment and the season will be finished behind closed doors.

And as you've mentioned gates, we'd lose lower league clubs all over the place. Considering there are only 9 games left they might be able to postpone until the summer with the Euros gone. I read someone mentioned a 60 day postponed period is maximum as per FA law, after hat it's abandoned. Edited March 13, 2020 by BangrakBob Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I honestly think the best way to avoid any legal actions which might cause further delay, is just resume when possible. Finish a season that is 75% done, fair for all. Start a new season when possible, which may be shorter season, but a level starting platform for all. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
