That one our best defensive performance I have seen in a long time. Lovren was immense. Clyne fantastic. Origi did a superb job up top. Dortmund have a derby against Schalke at the weekend. Hope they give them a run for their money
Judging from half-time I'm actually slightly disappointed, but if you'd asked me before the game I'd take 1-1 in a heartbeat. LovSak looked very good today. No idea how Moreno escaped that booking for the brainless challenge by the corner flag, but this means we won't be missing any players through suspension. I wish I could fast-forward to next Thursday.
Clyne. Fantastic????. They got in behind him atleast twice, he was ball watching again. MOTM was Lovren and Sakho who were immense together.

Jheez louise, I sometimes wonder If people are watching the same game. He was not "really good" going forward, because he done nothing with the ball when he got forward, apart from cut in and run into traffic or display his awful technique when recieving and passing the ball. Only reason he doesn't get crucified is because we have the brain-dead Moreno on the other flank who's main aim tonight was to either get himself sent off or just run as far away from Sakho as possible. Poor sakho had not outlet to pass the ball and was constantly getting pressed.
Yep, Life would be boring if we all had the same opinions.
Though Moreno was extremely look to remain on the pitch after his challenge. Clearly two footed challenge. He didn't even get a yellow for it thankfully, or he would have missed the return leg.
Stop going berserk over his then?

Yeah Moreno is simply Brain dead. That is the only explanation for the things he does. Lol I just made a counter-point on why I feel he was wrong about Clyne, anyway Iv'e got an exam to procrastinate for so i'll look forward to that mate. Tara.

You have hated on Clyne from day one to be honest - opinions are hard to change after that (and that goes for everyone)

I am now. Well, on the drive back up from Stansted. No real funny stories. Just a fantastic trip with a set of like minded fans who just like their beer and footie unlike the last round. Even the bizzies were saying how great it was to see everyone have a boss time together unlike Tottenham who tipped up looking for it everywhere. Just WHY you'd do that in Dortmund is beyond me. The majority of English fans just don't get what a European trip is about and instead of having a laugh and a good bevie and scran with yer mates go with an anti-foreigner attitude and being aggressive and twats toward your hosts. Was in a fantastic Dortmund bar this AM where the fella behind the bar was showing us photies of Kloppo (sorry. Got used to what they affectionately call him) when he just decided to have a few bevvies with the Dortmund lads. Man alive, we think we love him but he's absolutely doted on in Dortmund. Such is the charisma of the man. You just don't fully appreciate what he gives you until he's yours.
Gonna' be boss this week lid. Spoke to loads who are coming over. (Everyone seems to be driving lol.). Funny the fella the restaraunt last night asking how L'pool would be as he'd only been to England twice (both Manchester clubs), and got **** each time. Like just mention Klopp mate and you won't have to buy a single pint! Haha. Easy to see why Jurgen chose us and why he feels so at home. We're SO much alike it's untrue. Towns gonna' be bouncing next Thursday la in one massive party. This ones gonna' be REAL special. And SO thankful we have these and NOT Utd for the silence. Many of them are planning to go the service Friday too even though they know they probably won't get in. The bond we've had for a good time with BvB has just been strengthened by the funny talking dude in the bins who walks on water in both City's.
As for the game, excellent effort and result. Thought the schizo Sakho was outstanding. Dortmund were off the pace, and they'll defo score at ours so we'll have to match them again. But like I've been told the last 3 days by many, 'We are a better team and should beat/ of beaten Liverpool. But you have Kloppo. And with Kloppo, everything's winnable. He just raises everyone and makes them believe!' God. Gushing now so I'll stop but that's exactly what it's been like. Just the utmost respect both ways between two sets of friends.
Oh, the bad. Some ******** young lad threw a smoke bomb into their section which we'll get punished for. He got a few smacks before the bizzies pulled him out which was good. And our number one fan I see over the Utd thread has pulled up two young **** talking ***** and embarrassing everyone. Can't legislate for not even a handful of knobs. But at least from the majority our reputation was further strengthed in another European City.
Roll on Thursday and another of the VERY special European nights that Anfield does like no other with our brothers from Dortmund.
Oh yeah, what is it about us, Germany and classic songs getting a rendition out of the blue? Bob Marley being belted out on a boss night in Dortmund watching the mighty Reds! Perfect.
'Walks out singing 'Don't worry ..... About a thing ..... 'Cos every little thing ..... Is gonna' be alright ..... '

General consensus from every BvB fan we spoke to after the game and on Friday/ Sat'day was that they all believe they'll get through. Which on paper you wouldn't argue with at all. These are a darn good side and arguably what, one of the top 5/ 6 best across Europe at the minute? But they aren't 100% confident down to two things. Anfield, which many can't WAIT to experience. Which just blows me away after what they have at Signal Iduna Park on a regular basis. And Klopp as noted above. Having had him for 7 years, they know full well what he's capable of inspiring to level talent deficiencies.
It's fixing to be quite the night.

This is their team for the Derby today.
