https://www.theguardian.com/footbal...e-will-want-to-face-liverpool-in-current-form Andy Robertson says no one will want to face Liverpool in current form As group winners Liverpool can land Real or Atlético Madrid in Monday’s draw, among others, and the left-back believes all will hope to avoid a date with a team who have never lost a knockout tie with Jürgen Klopp as manager.
Any Liverpool fans here want to draw that gangster coach Atletico? Not gonna lie, Atletico this team play very physical. Hell they want to break every Juventus players legs in the group stage. All those pushing and shoving and kicking Dybala leg, Ronaldo and Juv defenders . WTH. And Atletico good at parking the bus too, they won't jump into attack like Red Bull, so don't think about counter-attack them, it gonna be hard for Liverpool to break them down if they all park the bus. I never like Atletico, so if Liverpool happen to draw them, please do a favor and knock them out. With how physical Atletico can play in order to win, becareful, Liverpool players if not careful might get injure. I saw how they play in the group stage against Juv, no fun. All I can say is bless Juv, we deal with this Atletico team in the group stage, we can't draw them again in the round 16. phew. Last thing I want is they try their physical style to injure my team players.
Yeah. This is Liverpool year to win the league, to end your 29 years long wait. So seriously avoid getting your key players injure. So best to avoid that gangster coach team Atletico. They will go physical style on you if they have to in order to avoid getting knock out. And if Liverpool front 3 get injure, boy, it going to be tough to keep the far distant points in EPL. Anyhoo, I heard that Real Madrid is UEFA favorite boy, so unless they want their favorite boy get knock out, they probably won't pair Real with Liverpool, because they know Liverpool is unbeaten and in best form right now, so fans are debate doubt that EUFA will pair a Liv vs. Real match this early. I mean I dunno, but we see on Mon. UEFA probably pair Juve and Real, you know, just for the fun of Ronaldo have to go vs. his ex-club. Perhaps those fans are right if Real is indeed UEFA favorite boy, chances are they won't pair Real vs Liv in a knockout stage.

https://www.theguardian.com/football/2019/dec/14/jurgen-klopp-champions-league-liverpool The supposed tweaks to the domestic schedule to compensate are risible. Klopp has called the changes "bollocks" even, as it seems, the club is involved in the discussion to implement the changes.
this could get interesting, and not in a good way. if the expanded CL idea comes to pass (maybe unlikely but who the hell knows, there's so much money involved) and the club sign off on it .... what happens? Jurgen's made his feelings abundantly clear. he's been complaining bitterly for a long time about the long-term affect of (all) players being overworked and he could see this as the last straw. would he take a stand on this vs FSG? I'm probably being paranoid and over-analytical. I hope I am.
There’s something borderline arrogant about the proposals. How, for example, would the six clubs mentioned manage to convince the rest of the football pyramid that FA Cup replays should be scrapped? Or that the size of the Premier League be reduced?
not sure I'd even call it borderline, it's pure arrogance and greed - the UEFA standard mindset. they are the centre of the universe and everything and everyone else should simply accommodate what they want.
Draw coming up in a few mins... Why do I have a feeling we're going to get Real Madrid? And weirder yet... I'd almost feel happy if we did, as I have full confidence Liverpool can get the job done over them and it'd be a sweet revenge for the last time we played each other. But I wouldn't complain if we draw Atalanta [emoji16]
I just know it. It was my feeling all along. No way UEFA will give Liverpool Real so Real can get knock out. Therefore Real got City. I know they will give Atletico. Well good luck guys. This Atletico team is no joke, I would NOT underestimate them, they can park the bus, and they VERY physical.
My Juventus got Spurs. I guess I'm okay with that. I believe CR7 and Sarri can work Mourinho. Let hope so.
