Could have been 10...not even joking....if Klopp leaves Salah on Roma don’t commit so many forward and if they do Liverpool score more. Reds will score in Rome at least once.....going through to final. Walk on.

C'mon Roma on behalf of all football fans you have one job
Nuh mate, as a neutral I would rather see a free flowing Liverpool in a final than any Italian team.Originally Posted by StannyCFCJET
Real v Liverpool would be mouth watering.
Just enjoy Europa league next year stanny
Left for dawn service at 0-0 and Roma holding their own. Came home to 5-2 and was quite surprised
Weve one it once. Happily win it again
Rafa - "I have won Europa League for Chelsea".
Jose - "Tin cup? Who cares?"
Now there’s a song you could sing in the stands......
fk off soaw
**** Jose. Bet he cared last year when he won it
Rafa - "I have won Europa League for Chelsea".
Jose - "Tin cup? Who cares?"
Bayern were plain awful today.
Fixed.
interesting start to the arsenal match.
Athletico Madrid are a very good team. I won't slag us off because we missed some chances, I think Athletico were just better set up to deal with the card then we were.
Was it a reasonable red card? I turned on about 50th minute and Bein didn't indicate there had been a card - I just thought Arsenal were camped in their end. I take it that's why Simeone was in the stands?
The fact there'd been a red card surprised me because the ref was letting a lot go - telling many players to get up.

First yellow (after 90 seconds mind) was a bit soft.
Second (after 10 minutes) was a definite yellow card.
The whole Atletico bench erupted & Simeone was sent off.
Right. Cheers.
What I saw, Arsenal played well and just slightly better finishing would have seen them 2-0 or 3-0 up. The goal they conceded....well they finally got in behind from a long ball hoofed forward. Mustafi nearly prevented it and the bounce off Navas was unfortunate.
All to play for in the second leg. Arsenal get a goal and it's game on.
Again, only from what I saw, it was great to see a lot of passion at the Emirates. Seemed a hostile atmosphere at times.

Best part of the entire thing, Santi Cazorla came out onto the pitch and warmed up for a bit. A few fans got there really early and saw him. Supposedly back in training in 2 weeks. So happy, he is a great player and seems like a great bloke. Hopefully he can regain his fitness and be back playing for us next year.
I only caught bits and pieces on my phone this morning so I need to go home and watch the game on the weekend (Have plans tonight watching another knock out game in little ol' newcastle) It seemed like they were set up to keep us at bay and we just couldn't take some half chances and better.
If we had won this morning 3-1 say I think we would have set up wrong in Madrid and lost. Now we just have to go for it. I can see the return leg being a 0-0 or 0-1 affair to see who goes through.
Those first leg leads just have not been that strong in a lot of cases this year in Europe.
I only watched the highlights this morning but even before the red I think Arsenal were pretty on top. Atletico had a few chances late in the first half, but Arsenal came close so many times. Oblak made a couple great saves too. You could see the result coming though, Atletico just seem to be the masters of soaking pressure and then nabbing a goal.
Still bitter about the "ghost goal"?
