We were constantly warned by that Manduzkic header at the far post tactic, now he's got 2 of the same type of goals.

Possibly and I was going to say that Madrid's defence looks a bit worrying at the moment. Only comforting thought is that Madrid are a little improved at this stage in the competition.

I would agree with you without doubt but it’s 2 nil now

Yeah, I know, they were shit yesterday and then, well, two friggin openings handed to them and they took both. Lethal considering they'd barely touched the ball all game.

Yeah indeed, can be annoying to watch when you're not a Liverpool supporter. Was the same against Palace, shit yet Mane and Salah both score to win and similar away to United where they didn't flow and Salah did very little. Their midfield isn't very special at all so there are games that look fairly even and then all of a sudden one or two of the front 3 link up, score the first goal and the game just opens up. The scary thing is that I'm not sure who I want them to face in the semis, they can potentially trouble anyone :ROFLMAO:(n)

You could almost use our game at Anfield as an example, they got 2 frantic goals, and they were both rather frantic, not really from controlled passage of play yet when the game seemed to settle and take it's natural course and despite our goals coming from a penalty and wonder strike I think our midfield and general all round team strength showed in how we controlled the game.

Bale been pretty shit. Barely been in the game.

Unfortunately so, you kinda just wanna grab the guy and shake him, so many times for Madrid he looks like he just kind of floats around the pitch. It's mostly annoying because you know there's so much raw ability that he's not showing.

I get the impression that some of the Madrid players are ignoring him and his runs, they seem to only be passing to him if it's a last resort, fuck them and Ronaldo time to come home Gareth.
