    I was thinking that. They'd have given up after the second Dortmund goal if Rodgers was still in charge.

    Fantastic.

    It'd be nice if Sakho could enjoy it a bit more though.

    I do love the desperate scramble to downplay it every time Liverpool wins like this (which admittedly isn't very often). It's not about the competition, it's about the game they've just played and the manner in which they've won. I'd rather win the Europe League like that than win the league in an utterly boring fashion (unless you're Leicester).

    Oh come on, a 38-match season is always going to feel more "boring" than a knockout competition. The Premier League is more important than the Europa League.

    You're not a real Cess fan. The exact opposite is true of their victim mentality.

    Didn't see that coming at any point other than when Lovren was winding up that header. Great game.

    Liverpool are gonna win the league next season. Or at least threaten to for a bit.

    The look on the Dortmund players faces was priceless, utter shellshock, Reus's was an absolute gem.
    Test.

    It is now of course in crackpot land. Well, until they lose to a far inferior team to Dortmund next time out because they don't know how to raise their game.

    But for now, MOST IMPORTANT COMPETITION IN THE WORLD.

    Surely winning an actual trophy and qualifying for the Champions League is better than finishing fourth? I'm not even saying Liverpool will win it but any sane fan wants their team to win a trophy?

    Sure, I'd love Liverpool to win the Premier League (and we will under Klopp), but when I'm an old man it'll be moments like going mental by myself in the living room half an hour ago that I remember more than all the clinical 2-0 home wins against Watford.

    The ultimate is Aguero's goal against QPR though. Nothing would come close to that.

    I'm sure it is now after tonight, that its huge, etc etc.

    If you've been here at all you'd know I've never been an advocate for the competition. Even back in the day when I gave a shit about Spurs I would have hated them wasting energy on it.

    I meant winning the Europa League is better than winning the 'fourth place trophy'. For anyone, not just Liverpool. Not that the competition is more important than the league. They both come with Champions League qualification but the Europa is also silverware in its own right.

    How should we have acted before the game to properly express how important we felt that the game was?

    Start of the season is it that important no it probably isn't. I'd rather win the league(Or at least not be twenty points off the pace)because I'm not a massive spastic. But, considering if we weren't still in it our season would have been finished in February and it is a route back into the Champions League IF we did win it I'd probably say it's more important than trying to finish 6th in the league.

    Yes it's not the best competition in the world but choice of winning it or even having a decent run in it or nothing I know which one I would take.

    What a match, pity I was unable to watch it. Couldn't believe it following the game on livescore. Never saw us coming back after that Reus goal. Caught the highlights tonight - Sakho's celebration. Not sure who I want in the semi - are Shakhtar actually any good?

    We had all the Liverpool fans at work crowded around the guy with the smart watch, waiting on updates. Went a little mad when the 4-3 update came through. You could also hear the "oh for fucks sake" coming from the guys who were sticking the boot in at 0-2 down.

    Got home and watched the highlights. Glorious.

    Those weird celebrations where everyone holds hands and lift their arms Klopp has implemented look very reminiscent of the stuff your players would get up to in ISS/Pro Evo of old when you won something. Looked shit and unrealistic then . . .
