      One perfect night in Istanbul
      May 22, 2015 08:09:22 pm
      Couldnt find a thread on this but its Ten Years on monday and I will be getting the DVD out and have a few drinks to remember that wonderful wonderful night which the memory of I will take to my grave.
      I had a big family get together and the memory of us all singing YNWA is pretty powerful stuff.With all the difficulties surrounding the club now how good is it to have memories such as that.
      I simply can't believe its ten years ago.

      That was when we had players who would not lie down and believed in fighting to the very last whistle. Oh for some of those lads(or their like) today. The manager then also knew his way around Europe.

      I have watched Dudek's late save so many times on slow mo and I still think it must be the greatest and most important save any goalkeeper has ever made for this club.

      Truly great night for the club and fans, for such a great comeback with a "real" Liverpool performance. It just seem such a shame we are living on these past memories.

      We should show potential new players the DVD and show them what we expect.

      Certain memories you can recall them and they  make you smile its a wonderful gift to have. Seeing a crippled Jamie Carragher sprinting down the pitch leaping in the air with pure joy is one of them for me.Alonso's penalty he couldnt just put it in he had to completely destroy us and within half a second bring us back to total euphoria.
