You have to speculate to accumulate..

if we don't win the CL and finish 5th, the season will have been a failure (IMO)

if we don't win the CL and finish 2md, 3rd or 4th, we can move on, whilst being in the CL

If we win the CL and finish 5th - who cares - everyone is happy

if we win the CL and finish 2nd, 3rd or 4th - everyone is even happier

Question - if we got to the Champ League Final and lost does it give any form of qualification right for next year?

No, it never has. You have to win it or finish top 4 in the league (or win the Europa League).

Thanks i had brain fade.

I say we just go to Stoke with a 2nd string team and have the very best team fresh for the away leg.

It's the only way.

Pretty sure Rafa fielded a really weak team before the 2007 final, and wolves got fined for 10 changes once, but I'd have no complaints if we made 8, 9 or 10 changes.

Chelsea may or may not get 3 or 4 wins, but I couldn't care less about them, Making the final is all that matters right now.

I'd be keen to hear your thoughts on the talk about Gerrard for the position of rangers manager

just media speculation or is there something in it ?
It's no secret that he wants to manage Liverpool eventually. If he wants to do that he'll need to leave our U18s at some point and go and manage elsewhere, Rangers would probably be a good option for him, I don't think he has much to lose.

But do you want him? I've no idea how good/bad your alternative options are and I've no idea how good a manager he would be. Would be a risk, but how much I don't know.

Hey, we could all HAVE supported Liverpool...

Not "of". That makes no sense in the English language whatsoever in that sentence. And its not "should of", "could of" or "would of" anywhere, ever. It's "should've", "could've", "would've" - the " 've " is a contraction of HAVE ("should have", "could have", "would have").

If you're going to troll, at least do it in English. Have a nice day.

Hey! I like Everton. Nice club.
It's human nature to like things that don't carry a threat, and fear/hate things that do.
Agreed. I didn't see Everton fans destroying the City team bus this year.

It will be interesting to see the team Klopp does pick. In my view, he played Gomez and Moreno last week and arguably it cost us 3 points. 2 players who knew they were simply being used as pawns to rest their 1st choice replacements for the all-important CL tie. They didn't look that motivated knowing you will be dropped back to the bench for one of the biggest games?

Then again, a lot of players were playing in 2nd gear and were not exerting too much energy in that game and perhaps playing cautiously so not to pick up any knocks.

So if we get 4 points, we're on 75. If Chelsea win all their games, they're on 75. So it's down to goal difference, which is what I said (before you said I was wrong and then said the same thing).
He's just coming to terms with the loss of his apostrophe key.
BCM will be able to sort one for him.

Agreed. This Ferris bloke needs to stop being so precious about the club he supports.
Appreciate the name check but relative to some of the people here I'm not precious about it.

Your complex appears to be worsening. Perhaps consider something else, somewhere else?

Its eggs and baskets time of the season. We don't have to put all eggs in the Champions League basket, but my personal opinion is that this is the one to go for. Anyone can win the premiership these days wink

The report I saw did suggest he was on the shortlist. Seems a bit premature to be honest. I think it would be a mistake for any club to want him as their senior team boss at this stage. He’s not even had a full season with our youth team.

I'm sure they'll get a warm reception in HMP.

Nice gesture from the club https://www.liverpoolecho.co.uk/news/liverpool-new...

Looks like the club are trying to make the away leg as safe for fans as possible, but struggling to get even basic information out of Roma...
