If Jamie Vardy would like to take a big step toward topping Mo as top scorer tonight that'd be sound by us.
 
Super effort from Leicester. Just like Rafa Friday, Brendan kept the integrity of the league and played them really hard to the final whistle and made City really earn that.

Iheanacho man. Fine, fine margins.

See who holds their nerve Sunday now in this epic battle for the ages.

Keep on saying it but it's a travesty for whoever finishes runner-up after both clubs ridiculous standards all year long.

To be fair City have set this standard for two seasons in a row now. You both have done brilliantly but City are on the brink of an incredible achievement. I refuse to believe that they could do it again next year.

Absolutely. They win Sunday they'll have averaged 99 points over two straight years. Ridiculous standard.

Why, natural disappointment aside, you won't find many here who'll be P with this magnificent side going toe-to-toe with the most expensively assembled, and well arguably all-time best side in English football history if we finish runner-up. It really doesn't matter if they top 97 points. What more can you do than just tip your hat to them and say 'Fair F's. It's been the best battle this Country's ever seen and you've been inches better to come out on top. Congratulations.' When you block out all the outside noise from jealous opposition fans and certain idiots the media, you can't help but have terrific pride in all they've achieved this season regardless of how Sunday plays out. Neither team could have done any more this season.

But whilst there's a game of football to go, there's always hope. Or else you might as well just forfeit the final game now.

Off the top of my head, Everton had it boxed in '86 and lost at Oxford the penultimate game. Nobody gave Arsenal a prayer three years later at Anfield having to win by 2 clear goals the final game. United only drawing at West Ham in '95 and handing it to Blackburn.

Stranger things have happened. Nothings over until the games have been played.

It'll be one heck of party Sunday regardless.
 
'..... Porto, Barcelona who the F yer trying kid? 'Cos we're the mighty L'pool, we're going to Madrid! We're going to Madrid!'

Into these Redmen!

Can’t begin to know what emotions must be going through that young mans head right now.

19-years-old. Never played so much of a second of senior football. Been working his ____ off the past 14 months to get back after a horrific injury. And he’s now on the verge of making his debut, in some description, on the biggest stage of all.

WOW! Boys own stuff and then some.

If you get on at some point tonight mate, savour it. These nights are super special and chances to get to the biggest game in football don’t come around every year. Go out with the confidence and no fear of youth and show what you’ve shown your rapid progression through the youth ranks.

Proud of you Rhian. And I have every faith you’ll let nobody down. But most importantly, have fun. Thats what its ALL about.
 
Scouse are you really going to party if you end up coming 2nd? Just reading your last post and it would be a bit weird. Don't get me wrong statistically been a good season, but you're all going to be gutted truthfully because the title was in your own hands up until that City game. Even after that you had an advantage that you should have been able to control.

Don't get me wrong Liverpool have had a good season statistically in the league, but if City are champions it will all be rather irrelevant. As you could and should have had the title. History ultimately only remembers the winners. Just like when City beat us to title by such fine margin..... Aguerrroooooooo... everyone remembers that, not how close United were.
 
Mate, history, and outside voices, can remember what they want. They can ridiculously say we ‘bottled it’/ laugh that we fell short et all. We’ll remember one of the finest L’pool sides theres ever been thats only going to get better and better. (This isn’t a ‘one-and-done’ deal by any stretch. We’ll be going at it hammer and tongs with City again next year.). Who’ve given us an absolutely fantastic journey with them all season long with many fantastic highs you’ll never forget. The pride in Klopp’s Reds couldn’t be higher if we won the lot.

Just like in Kiev last May, if we’ve fallen short Wolves, you’ll be naturally gutted and disappointed the ground. But then you put it into perspective of the ridiculous season these lads have had where we honestly couldn’t have asked for any more from them. What they’re competing against. And how they’ve returned L’pool FC to one of Europes very top clubs again. And you celebrate that. Town will buzzing way more in defeat than City could ever wish to in celebration. Nobody was too down in Barcelona last week after the game. That’s just Scousers in genetal.

We’re gonna have fun and party regardless mate. Its in our DNA and what we do. Other fans don’t like it when the media push it but our fan culture really is different and unique to the rest of England.

And this gang of special Reds deserve that.

And hey, if we manage to overturn last week and beat Barca tonight, it won’t be a bad consolation to look forward to in 3 weeks Madrid huh?
 
Works not happening this avvi.

Absolutely buzzing for tonight.

Into these Redmen!

Are the LFC fans chanting Suarez as a cheat? There's surely some irony here XD
 
So jealous of Liverpool football club man.

Had a bet with a Barça fan last Tuesday that Liverpool would beat them over 2, thought I was out a score after Wednesday. Regardless of what happens, thanks for giving me a run for my money
 
This is the greatest choke since the match against Roma.

Banter
 
Seeing Lpool stomping Barca like this is satisfying to watch. Is there more dislikable player than Suarez? He's all about antics.

Also, Henderson, he might be limited as a 2x2 parcel, but he shows that heart, intelligence and most important - having a stamina to run 2 full games, can make you an excellent player.

You can have the CL. Just leave PL alone.
 
Can we not degrade their performance by over-dissing the opposition. There was no “fair play Barça but LFC bottled it” last week, why this week?

They’ve been the better team over both legs, deserved. Having said that, I do want Spurs to win the CL, just so Poch sends a ‘**** you’ to the club if there was a chance to sign him.

Mate. They have absolutely bottled it. 3-0 was tough in Liverpool because they had been decent. Barcelona need one goal have been *****. SIX PLAYERS TURN THEIR BACK ON A CORNER AND LIVERPOOL SCORED. That's unforgivable defending
 
No Salah, No Firmino and we turn out a performance like that!! INCREDIBLE.
