If someone up above had've said to me at half seven tonight you'll win 5-2 win I'd have laughed my head off.
What a game that was..
Mo Salah is from another planet.. a far far away planet at that.
And, the more I think about it, so is Bobby Firmino.. what a game he had !
Brilliant performance, in what was, let's face it, the semi final of the Champions League FFS !!
Couldn't have asked for more from our lads.
My only gripe was taking Salah off for Ings..Can't get my head around that decision, sorry.
Bring him off for Klavan, yes, but not Ings.. poor lad did f**k all when he came on.
Yet down the other end, we looked tired and fell apart in those last 10 minutes.
I'll keep the faith with Lovren and put my trust in him as best I can for the rest of the season but he was, for me, sh*te tonight and unfortunately always will be.
His judgement on the through ball to Dzeko was bad, very bad and I've come to the conclusion he just can't f***in head the ball.
Hindsight is a wonderful thing as we all know and that game was full of
what ifs such as Milner's block for the penalty, Ox's unfortunate absence for the majority of the game, Mane's continued missed chances first half, Karius's butter fingers first ten minutes.
One thing's for sure...Is that we have the best striker in the world today..
Made up with the result I am and I have every confidence Bobby or Mo will bury them in the second leg..
