Yeah that's a very easy choice to make actually. Guardiola will send the U12 to get slaughtered by United and Spurs if it guaranteed City went through in CL
This is why we need to at least keep it to a draw. Or he would have won the league and throw on the reserves vs Spurs whilst he rests his stars for the CL.

So, we are firmly with Liverpool on that. If there was the option that both get eliminated at the same round, it would be great, but...

I hope this happens :lol:

Big game in the business end of the champions league and both teams only have us on their minds, cute.
Same here. I really hope they'll sing this shit.
It will just confirm how deeply United is under their skin.

Surely not?
:lol:

That song got knocked back months ago. Some fella from Cork came up with and got famous . They played it at Anfield and it got swerved. The ending has changed too . Going from the Man City badge saying Man City Pune it may have something to do with Indian fans.

To be fair that final verse isn't the worst and why couldn't it be used at the same time by both set of fans.

See my previous post. The original song had no reference to United and the original song got massively swerved at Anfield. We do not sing about United unless we play United unlike youse singing about us. Two songs mention United if I recall.

We hate Nottingham Forest
We hate Everton too
We hate Man Utd but Liverpool we love you . From the late 70's .

Bring on the Mighty Barcelona
Bring on the Ities ( Italians ) , ( some people sing United ) by the score
And we'll take you two by two
And we'll kick feck out of you
'Cos Liverpool is the team that we adore

Cant think of any others.

Anyway. feck this. Iam off to town to drink and to take the piss out of lads who think they are Liam Gallagher

Almost impossible to predict , taking the league into account the scoucers were well in the game then Mane was sent off ,game over.

At Anfield Liverpool nearly threw away a 3 goal lead.

The draw is a tricky one for both clubs and tbh I,m glad we are sat on the sideline watching.

100% behind the scoucers on this but it sought of eases the pain one of them has to lose.

Oh it could it could. I hope both sets of fans use it.
I really do think you need to read my posts. You have and I know and you know it but you choose to live in your bubble.

We wont sing it . Ta ra.

Liverpool: Anfield Is All Set To Bring Another Set Of Superstars To Their Knees

partisan

noun

  1. a strong supporter of a party, cause, or person.
HERE we are again, Reds.

These are my favourites. I’m happy to write about how well Trent Alexander-Arnold has done or why Emre Can’s self belief should be applauded, not derided, but these articles are what I’m in it for.

These games are what I’m in it for.

All of those times questioning whether to just stay in the pub rather than sit in the freezing cold watching Hodgy tell Danny Agger to launch it long. All of those days arguing with fellow fans about whether it matters if our manager gets his teeth done and how all great teams have great players, not just his. All those drab 0-0s against West Bromwich fecking Albion, having to listen to their fans ask mockingly where our famous atmosphere is.

They’re all worth it. Every single one of them. For days like these and nights like the one ahead.

I remember 2005. I remember booking the day off work and meeting my mate in Wetherspoons for a breakfast and a pint at 11am. I remember the steady flow of other supporters walking in, giddy at the thought that they should, as grown-up humans, be in their serious place of work doing a serious, adult job on a Wednesday but, instead, were sitting in a pub having a pint, watching the people who were always in there at 11am and wondering whether they were doing life right.

I remember the air filling with optimism as the day wore on and the alcohol level increased. I remember the songs. I remember the European flavour to the rhythm and the tunes.



It was Spanish then. It’s French now, but the point is still the same.

No other English fans do it quite like this, because no other English fans have our European heritage. From our days as a port, welcoming people from distant lands, revelling in their mystery and adopting the best of their cultures, to the days when we started on our own quests, heading to far foreign lands and returning victorious.

No-one else does it quite like us, because we’re special. They’ll laugh at me for writing it and they’ll laugh at you for saying it, but never let them convince you it’s not true.

I’ve seen it. I’ve felt it run through my veins and make the hairs on my neck stand on end like there’s an electric current running through me.

I’ve seen them. Lots of them. All the big boys, all the hard men, all the giants saying they’ve seen it before. They’ve played in big games in big stadiums and they’ve been to Anfield plenty of times.

They’re saying it again.

But we know it’s different. We know West Bromwich fecking Albion will only ever see it on TV and we don’t fecking care. Because this isn’t about them. This isn’t about 19 home league games, some with a good atmosphere and some which are just piss poor. This is about the mystique of Anfield on a European night.

It isn’t a myth. It’s a story that endures for a reason. It’s a legend passed down from generation to generation.





I remember when I was a little boy my granddad telling me about it from his terraced house on Pinehurst Avenue, a 10-minute walk from the ground.

I remember standing outside his front gate watching the men walk past after the game asking them what it was like.

It’s like heaven, son.

It’s a place you go to leave all your troubles behind. Your shitty job, your empty bank account, the arguments with your other half.

None of them matter anymore. Every ounce of frustration you have in your life, every bit of anger, every little bit of shit that’s built up over the months, can all be washed away in a glorious 90 minutes.

Take it all out on them. They play in blue, which makes it easier. Demand every free kick, appeal for every penalty, make sure that the referee comes off the pitch begging for the sanctity of video assistance in the future.

Let everything out. Don’t leave anything unsaid. Don’t walk away with any regrets that you could have done more.

They say they’ve seen it all before, but they’ve never seen anything like this.



I’ve seen legends crumble under the weight of an Anfield crowd. Juventus, Real Madrid, Chelsea, Borussia Dortmund. Gianluigi Buffon, Andrea Pirlo, John Terry, Iker Casillas.

Ilkay Gündogan.

Crumbled in a yellow shirt and ripped apart in a light blue one.

And part of that was when the ground was 9,000 supporters lighter than it is today.

Make it rain down on them from all sides. Make them feel the weight of our power and our glorious history. Make them wonder why they can’t do what we can do.

Make them realise that this is not for sale. Not everything in life can be bought with oil money.

They’ll never be us and they’ll never have what we have.

Whether they like it or not, the European gods love us. We are, and will always be, part of European folklore.



Tonight is the time for a new generation to learn that the legend is true.

Tonight is for all the old men and women who have seen it all before and grown tired and disgruntled with 12.30pm kick-off times and Rupert fecking Murdoch to roll back the years and remember what it used to be like.

To have 10 pints and sing in the street.

To get caught on the telly screaming at a 20-year-old kid on £100,000-a-week to make him shit himself, when in everyday life you’re just an accountant, bored with life.

This is your time.

Tell your boss you’re taking the afternoon off. Wherever you are in the world, make this a five-hour buildup. You might not be in Liverpool or in the ground, but you can still be heard. While City’s nouveau riche fans around the globe sit quietly applauding their stylish team, you’ll be screaming and shouting and jumping and singing.

They’ll think you’re a lunatic, and they’ll be right.

That’s what this is. Millions of lunatics all around the world urging their red army on with all the power they have, channelling everything through 50,000 soldiers inside Anfield onto the pitch.



Stand up now. Take a deep breath and get started. There isn’t a minute to spare.

Feel the power of history flow through your veins and electricity ripple across your skin. Feel your heart pump with the force of five European Cups. Of Graeme Souness and Alan Hansen, Kenny Dalglish, Ian Rush and, of course, Steven Gerrard.

Remember the John Arne Riise cross and the captain’s header. Remember the gesture to the support inside the Ataturk to rise with the red tide.

Remember Tommy Smith powering a header into the top corner, Davey Fairclough toppling St Etienne and Brucie Grobbelaar’s jelly legs.

No-one else can match it.

No-one else can do what we can do.

Embody the strength of history. Walk the streets 10-feet tall today. You’re part of the red army on your way to defeat the moneybags favourites.

We’ve done it before and we’ll do it again.



We’ll make the whole of Europe bow down at our feet. We’ll build it up and up, a bastion of invincibility, until they have no choice but to concede to our overwhelming power.

Can you feel it?

That’s what victory feels like. That’s how real champions win a European Cup.

Never let them convince you otherwise.

We’ve conquered all of Europe,
We’re never gonna stop,
From Paris down to Turkey,
We’ve won the fecking lot,
Bob Paisley and Bill Shankly,
The Fields of Anfield Road,
We are loyal supporters,
And we come from Liverpool…

Allez, Allez, Allez…

Come on you Mighty Reds.

I hope Pool knock City out to be eliminated by a Spanish team in the semis. However, aside from wishful thinking, by the end of both ties I expect City to have scored at least 2 goals more than Pool.

In the other thread on this forum about tonight i said i would go for Liverpool because my "logic" is that if City go through i can see them winning the whole thing whereas i don't think Liverpool will.

But then i read drivel like that posted above and all logic (as spurious as it was) goes out the window. I hope City put 10 past the cnuts

Comments on that piece:

Majestic writing. If Citeh read that, they’d be shitting themselves already.
BRILLIANT PAUL!!
WHATEVER HAPPENS TONIGHT,THEY, CITY, MUST KNOW THAT WE WILL NEVER GIVE UP, WE WILL NEVER GO AWAY. THEY WILL BE DRAINED BY THE END OF THE TWO GAMES, MENTALLY AND PHYSICALLY EXHAUSTED.

NO ONE ELSE CAN DO WHAT WE CAN DO.
Never change scousers, never change.

So much cringe. It's actually painful to read. Read it in a Brent voice and almost spat my coffee out.

Last week, when Chelsea still had a chance getting into the top 4 ahead of Liverpool, I wouldve liked Liverpool to have a couple of big midweek games to potentially derail their league form..

Now I dont care. Win win either way..
The team that progresses will be knocked out in the semis by the big boys.

I was very surprised to hear today that Liverpool were 16 points behind City with an extra game on the board. Seems odd for the best team in the land; NOBODY can do what they can do.

No other English fans do it quite like this, because no other English fans are as smug. From our days as a port, welcoming people from distant lands, revelling in their mystery and complaining about Thomas Cook gloryhunters from BingoBongoland, to the days when we started on our own quests, heading to far foreign lands and returning with stolen Coq Sportif trainers with sequinned fins.

You are realizing how strong the Liverpool PR machine is. They have been defying the league table for 30 years.

Man City have a goal difference higher than how many points Liverpool have, they are so much better than everyone else in the PL.
