Their mentality really is something else.
FFP is even more of a joke than I thought

Their mentality really is something else.
That all stemmed from Bajcetic giving possession away cheaply again.
And the deflection to take it in from Gomez.
Just *chef's kiss*.
Get both of them off to fuck.
This is right up there with the 2018 final. Strange turn of events.
Why did Nunez not fucking play it to Gakpo there?
Think Baz has it right with the 6-3.
Gomez is just not good enough, and hasn’t been since his good 4 months in 2019.
I knew I'd enjoy this.
I'm fucking loving this.
Taz, you good?
Regretting paying for the BT monthly pass now.
Liverpool have been absolutely fucking shambolic since the 10th minute. Only thing they’ve done since then is that fluke thanks to Courtois.
Proper joke of a midfield which probably isn’t helped by Fabinho and Henderson both playing right back to cover ‘Trent’
Alaba going off injured was a blessing in disguise for Real. That space Liverpool kept finding before he went off just hasn't been there since.
Milner and Matip should have been on at half time for Bajcetic and Gomez.
Fuck me, it's Milner for Henderson.
Gosh, you absolutely hate to see it don't you?
McManaman daying Bajcetic was starting to give the ball away. Was the thick cunt even watching the game?
Fucking embarrassing.
I'm gonna dance on the feckless mong's grave when he succumbs to whatever death early-onset dementia brings on him.
This "You'll Never Walk Alone" at 5-2 down is fucking tragic
Funeral atmosphere.
Wasn’t even Gomez at fault. Midfield got absolutely ran through and Van Dijk is as much of a horror show
We somehow won the game comfortably on xG. I don’t remember many good chances we missed. Only managed to post 0.07 in the second half though.
Sorry Taz

Brazil's Dani Alves has had a request to be released from jail on bail rejected by a Spanish court as an investigation into an alleged sexual assault continues.
Alves, 39, has been held since January over an allegation he assaulted a woman in a Barcelona nightclub in December. He denies any wrongdoing.
His lawyer had asked for him to be released if he surrendered his passport and wore an electronic tag.
The court rejected the request, saying it considered him to be a flight risk.
Has to be going down.
Speaking of Barca, is anything going to come from the £1m bribe to influence the refereeing?
Apparently in Spain if you cheat then so long as you don't get caught for 3 years, it's all good.
They've also been doing it since 2003.
Was listening to the game at work, I was hopeful after the first 15 mins or so, but then you have to remember that this is still mostly the team that have been recently spanked by Brighton and Brentford.
Most disappointing thing is 4 of the 5 goals are directly from mistakes. Poor touches from Bajcetic and Fabinho lead to two and Goe fucking Jomez provides further lols. Other than the one he caused, Alisson could do fuck all about any of the goals too.
Seems as if Real got to half time having sussed it out and came out ready in the second half. A shame, but to be expected given recent form when facing the best team on the planet.
I mean they found blood bags from the biggest doping doctor in the country labelled with player names and the court chose to burn them instead of investigate them. It’s a corrupt league.
Unfortunately actual errors are more determinative than expected goals.
Joe Gomez's Ae are off the chart...
Neither did they.

Oooo a whole five.
You don't need five chances to score five goals.
That's the problem with xG.
Most goals aren't 'likely' under the metric.
My point was that smacking one in from 30 yards gets you 1 goal, but about 0.05xG, so goals can occur without the statisticians thinking they were at all likely to happen [and those goals occur absent the existence of 'a chance'], and in fact most goals are xG 'unlikely' [but I suppose that depends on how you view the gamut of xG likelihood - I suppose 'likely' should start at about 0.4xG rather than 0.5xG as general probability would suggest].
This Man City game couldn’t be more boring.
City have been sleeping this half.
