Bigger game, different mentality from the players and the fans

Madrid will be overwhelming favourites, have the majority of the ball and that allows us to counter them - Look at their game against Ludogarets and Madrid will always be suspect defensively

Not saying it will be easier in anyway but it would be foolish to write us off and think we'll play like today

I agree, but cant see anything but a Madrid win. Everything in there favour!

But you are also hugely suspect defensively. And they have considerably better weapons than you. Before you can counter you need to a) not concede from the initial onslaught and b) win the ball back.

Ah right. Can mods not delete offensive posts aimed at me in future? This is a football forum after all!!
 
the only way for us to win against madrid is if we actually win the midfield fight, Madrid actually right now has too many good attacking player as midfielders, modric and kroos are great in organizing the game but no so good as defenders, even if illaramenti plays instead again he is not that good, ronaldo, bale, rodriguez, isco, great players but dont help at all in defense, if we actually manage not to concede a goal early enough,I think we have chances to win, not many though, and don't forget players have different motivation against QPR and much higher motivation playing against Real Madrid. i thinki it's 20% liverpool 80% real madrid

Of course, but the response from nearly all that Liverpool have already lost the game is foolish
 
I think Liverpool will do well against Madrid. With Sturridge back they can sit back and hit Madrid on the counter. Madrid obviously are better team for both possession based game or counter attacking game but Liverpool are more comfortable against teams who plays open game. I'm going for a scored draw.

Completely agree mate. Form really flies out the window for big games such as this. I'd imagine the Liverpool players and crowd will be absolutely pumped for such a glamour CL tie

Assuming Madrid decide to play an open game; Carlo is nothing if not shrewd.
 
Anfield should absolutely be rocking for this one. Saw an interview from Arbeola where he said he couldn't wait to relive the atmosphere again
 
Would not surprise me if Carl benches Hames and plays Khedira for the 1st leg at Anfield. Have Modric,Kroos,Khedira with Benzema,Bale,Ronaldo up top.
