Not sure if anyone notice...Klopp pre match interview-he was very nervous , talking in high speed with some gibberish. I said to the mrs, he showing real signs of nerves. I feel some Liverpool players were not 100% and held back-their long season had caught up. RM were excellent and should have been one up at half time IMO. When is a touch off a defender ever deliberate.
was the complete opposite to Ancelotti, honestly never seen such a calm manager, he has ice in his veins

He's talking about how Liverpool need to strengthen next season etc. I agree I don't think its a great look.

Imagine Conte being a pundit for the FA Cup final, telling ex club Chelsea how to strengthen or improve.

Not good.

It honestly wouldnt bother me. I'd obviously question it if we had a match the next day or something, but given that all the villa players are on holiday already, what does it matter? It's not like Liverpool are the arch rivals if Villa either, they're just another random team.

She appears to think the Champions League Final was all about her.

How is it their fault if loads of scousers tried to get in with fake tickets?

That's the excuse the french police have come out with. From the reports of people on he ground, that wasn't what happened at all. The way the police managed the crowd was a recipe for disaster and it's lucky there weren't more serious consequences.

12 minute summary from Sky. I think it leaves little doubt that a full independant investigation is needed. Pepper spraying children is not a good look for the French
police.

I’m not sure the wheels are coming off but loosing Mane and Salah starting to age will damage them massively. One can’t overestimate how good those two have been over the last few seasons. It’s not going to be that’s easy to replace them. Diaz looks a good it’s true, but not on that level yet.
And people can say EXACTLY the same about Kane and Son.

Ahh the French police have been tear gassing & pepper spraying their own citizens including children and OAP's for the past 4 years they're not going to have any qualms about doing so to football supporters, especially from UK.

If anything they’ll enjoy it even more!

Although some football supporters can’t be trusted to turn up with tickets and behave themselves its the police responsibility duty of care to make sure the majority who are law-abiding get in safely. They failed - by not placing the first checkpoint away from the ground to wean out the scum.

Wondering if UEFA had already pumped their money into Saint Petersburg, and then tried to do Paris on the cheap.

Nobody wants an opening ceremony. Period.

No idea why UEFA insist on foisting it upon us.

I like them as a concept. I know others who do, too. So your assertion is immediately proven false.

Also, no one is foisting anything on you. They're not forcing you to watch it. It doesn't occur in the middle of the match. Many times, broadcasters don't even air the whole thing, opting to show snippets while pundits continue previewing the game.
