    Messi immune to criticism?

    He’s as much to blame as his team are, his workrate is terrible.

    People used to say the same about the likes of Zlatan and Berbatov.

    Can't really blame him he was involved in every single chance created tonight and if it wasn't for him there wouldn't have been a lead to throw away.

    Spanked 130 million on Coutinho and he did absolutely * all again.

    Jurgen Klopp is the best Manager in the world, * overturned a 3-0 deficit against Barca with Origi and Shaqiri up front ffs. Pep could never.

    Tonight isn't about Messi, he's got Barca out of a hole time after time, but all the credit goes to Liverpool and their players for a magnificent performance.

    I think Barca thought they would turn up tonight and go thru the motions, they never bargained for the level of intensity that Liverpool showed.

    And? Jose mourinho won more trophies than him at man united, i don’t think you’d argue that mourinho did a better job than Klopp. Klopp has got liverpool to consecutive CL Finals, he has the confidence of the club, fans and has them playing some amazing football. Especially compared to where they were when he took over.

    Let down by several of his teammates, over both legs.

    :56: That reminds me of the Life of Brian when the guy says to the other condemned man carrying a cross "would you like me to spare you burden a while brother?" "oh yes thanks very much." then he * off :rofl:

    Messi ah? He's just a naughty little boy.

    I know, it doesn't make sense but what does when folk are comparing Messi to anyone else but the son of *?

    I like Klopp, really like the way he has the team playing, the way his 2 fullbacks are used as an attacking force, and the work rate he demands, Liverpool are exciting to watch, this current team are way too good not to win anything.

    Isn't it ironic how Pep is the only person stopping Liverpool. And maybe Cruyff's Ajax?

    All learnt it from Jock and the Lions anyway; "Celtic aren't just trying to beat Inter here, they're trying to end the Ice Age of defensive football."

    Mic drop :party22:

    "The best place to defend is in your opponent's penalty box".

    One of Big Jock's many classic statements.

    I thought it was interesting that only 3 of the players who started from Barca played in the Roma game. If anything you want more of those players to have experienced that so they wouldn't let it repeat itself this time.

    Some tie that was.
