    But yes, beating AC Milan at San Siro, especially given how limited time is on that stadium, would be nice to add to the tapestry. One more scalp.
    I was being naughty as I knew we hadnt beaten AC Milan there !

    Its a scalp but im terrified of us losing a major player in what is a dead game for us.

    Yes a win is £2.5m as Klopp says but if we lost a major first teamer it costs much much more.

    We should learn from Jota last year hopefully it is just BS from Klopp.

    Seven years ago tonight. Amazing that we only lost 1-0. Not sure what Brendan was smoking.

    iirc we were crap that season in the CL, irrespective of the starting eleven. we failed to qualify I think.

    Brendan was and remains a total disaster in Europe.

    Could never bear him. Treated his wife really shabbily. Was and probably is an owner of many terraced properties that were in dire need of upgrades, public health notices served on him which were ignored. I recall he blamed it on his “ management agents” total sheister and conman.
    The way he treated a very young Sterling in a televised programme summed him up in one. Shite bag

    It was a very good win against an opponent we have consistently found to be the most difficult opponent

    Jurgen bummed Simeone tactically too, hope to see more of those tactics employed against 3 at the back sides, it's what I've been prattling on about us needing to do for over 3 seasons now, it's what we should have done v Chelsea, before and after they were reduced to 10 men

    It was also absolutely brilliant to see Mane looking like Mane at his peak for the first time since he got covid early last season, looked like our Sadio in that first half

    I thought that too. Looks to be getting somewhere near his best.

    Excellent timing too, given that Firmino will be out for a bit - though with some of that spell being an international break and us already having qualified from our Champion's League group, it's the "best" situation within which he could suffer a setback, not that it's ever ideal.
