      Thank god that ended. We let Napoli take us for cu*ts in the group, but I really do hope this time that has made us angry.

      That referee was on a wind up.

      Theres no other way of saying it but these have had our pants down tonight.

      Our 'quality' on the ball has been found extremely wanting.

      The decision to bring on Ox for Salah has been found to be the wrong one.

      Need Salah on and need Ox in midfield.


      This. Bad decision. Ox on for Gini who once again did his invisible man act.

      0 shots on target with 73% of the ball. Although most of that possession was sideways on repeat.

      Poor but this tie is only half way through. We’ll be much better at home in the second half.

      Dopey start to the game cost us though. Caught us on the hop early, Morata flicks it for a throw in to Atletico in a sign of things to come from the officials..

      Cross comes in and Virgil poorly gives away a corner, we miss the first header, Fabinho is gaumless and then the ball bounces to them when we are defending 9 v 4.

      Gini has been well off his game for a while now, I was surprised he started this game. Keita is our most creative midfielder who gets on the ball and looks to drive at the opposition and looks for that quick one-two so think Klopp made the wrong call not even putting him on as a sub. As good and reliable as Milner is, if you are chasing a goal then he’s not the one you turn to unless you are hoping for a penalty.

      Huffed and puffed but not enough guile. Some poor crosses and corners by TAA as well. But can't see any reason why we can't turn it around. Could be said the midfield of Fabio,Hendo and Gini are solid but against top European teams do they lack that extra bit of guile, invention.

      1-0....not a disaster by any means.

      I thought this would be a tough game, but only coz I knew they would park the bus and play their usual 'dive try to get a foul game', but hoping Anfield will be too much for them - and I'll be there to watch in all its glory - can't wait. Robbo MOTM for me. COYR

      Actually not bothered; all this is going to do is piss them off for the next 3 weeks because they don't like to lose, expect them to be focused in the league and  then smash these divers at home.

      Wijnaldum was useless. Fabinho and Hwndo were everywhere. But I don't blame him, it seems Klopp does not let me be creative from midfield.

      Van Dijk was very poor tonight, exceptionally.

      Arnold's crosses were poor and Firmini did not have his playmaking and linking role. So we really lacked creativity, again.

      AM were good but is not a great team IMO. We cannot lose to them in 2 games.

      The most frustrating game I’ve watched in a long time


      I’ve just said the same thing to my DH, maybe we’ve got so used to winning it’s hard to accept, but it was so frustrating, the ref, their antics and Simeone acting a complete pr*t all added to the frustration! We need to be on our game at Anfield, if we are, with the crowd behind us, we can do it!

      All Simone has done is to turn this team into diving cheating. Thats his only way of winning. watch  how they will play at anfield, they will go go down, like tonight at the slightest contact, like he used to do. To me that is not football.   I did have respect for Athleti, but not anymore

      I’ll settle for that, 1 nil to a lucky rebound off Fabinho, the f***in w*nk commentary saying we didn’t have too many shots on target, well nor did f***in they you pair of kunts, only thing I’m slightly disappointed with is we didn’t score, but they won’t hold out for 90 + minutes at Anfield,

      That f***in ref, jeez, unbelievably sh*te, I reckon the crowd got to him, he was scared of making decisions against, booked Gomez for a decent tackle, same with Fab, ignored two clear hand balls that f***in Stevie Wonder would have seen, useless tw*t,


      Can’t wait for the second leg, their going down quicker than a fat kid on a seesaw, and pleeeeeeeze I hope someone f***in has that kunt Correa, pr**k !

      It’s been a while since we lost but I’ll tell you what it makes my F***ing blood boil, especially against that sh*te. The referee has completely caved there, an absolute embarrassment by him and a sorry excuse for a football team lining up against us.

      Tell you what I can’t wait for the return leg. If they think that was a hostile fixture, they’ll not like what’s waiting for them on the road to Anfield.

      The game played right in to Athletico hands with the early goal though we really lacked any sort of cutting edge in the final 3rd. Hoping for the next match either Ox/Naby or both play in the return leg because we will see more of the same in a couple weeks.

      I am more confident of getting through to the QF than last season after 0-0 draw at home vs Bayern.

      Just not use to this losing feeling ;D
