In years gone by this would have inspired a Fergie team, cant say the same this time around.

Two wins and two other finals in a decade and a half is a hell of a record without winning a league to get there.

First half was terrible as well. It picked up in the second half alright. I was looking at my phone at times in the first half.

Heat looked awful for both teams.

Rose i thought was spurs best player.

Penalty was harsh as well i felt. Hit his chest and then his arm. Granted he should not had have it so high.
The penalty was a result of the stupid handball rule in Europe. Mane probably saw the arm and deliberately took advantage of that, which is always going to happen with the way the handball rule is currently set up.

That said, Sissoko knows that rule and I have no idea why he does what he does. Stupid.

6th CL under a 4th manager

Rafa would have a 20 year free pass at this club :lol:

Liverpool had a fantastic season. Congratulations for winning the champions league.

They're so much better than the current United side. Unfortunately.

Hopefully we can close the gap next season.

We were pathetic. We basically handed them the trophy without even a fight.

I feel sorry for Poch tbh. Tactically there was nothing wrong and we dominated the ball and had some promising breaks, what more can he do with the team?

They let him down completely. Complete fannies in front of goal.
Fair dues to you lot top 4 and a CL final with 0 signings and barely any funds to build the team over the years is a hell of an achievement. Poch is top class for me I wonder if he sticks around now. As an Arsenal fan I hope he doesn’t he’s your competitive edge.

Easy to swallow this Liverpool team winning the CL. Fact is that despite being Liverpool they are a fantastic side who have shown a lot of effort and grit to get here. Well done!

If only Messi hasn't fannied for that shot.
Dembele was the one who missed a sitter. Barcelona certainly didn't deserve to go through over those two legs, even the one they won 3-0 was actually pretty even, let alone the collapse in the second leg.

People across Europe must be looking at that Final and thinking how did two such bang average teams make it to Madrid , Worst final i have ever seen . Liverpool have their 6th cup , but they are a pretty average team in a a Europe where the really big teams are in rebuild stage .

Nothing surprising. They've been top 3 team in the world for at least a year now. It was only matter of time before they won something big.

Could the season have been any worse , City win the league and Liverpool win the CL and we are going backwards towards mid table obscurity.
At least Leeds was not promoted.

I’m clutching at straws here.

Who would of thought, with great players and a great manager one is capable of winning matches AND major trophies.

We are a million miles behind this lot and I’m stopping the bitterness and saying well deserved.
