Henderson is not even that bad as he's made out to be. When he stays in the pocket he'll do a good job.

Can you really call it overcoming if you bypass the midfield altogether and just use them as tacklers?
Another reason to hope they get twatted tonight. It'll clear most of them off here. Far too cosy they've been over the last few years.
Will there be VAR in this game?
I don't know which would be better at this point. Liverpool losing tonight or us winning the champions league 
The answer's obvious, us winning the champions league is a far better feeling but it's weird how much I don't want Livershite to win tonight.

Nope. Not used in the Champs league.
Then we can hope for a late offside goal or dive for a penalty to maximize the tears
What does it matter how we did it? Those were the midfielders paying and ours came out on top.
I think we should be looking to upgrade on him personally.
Steady on now.
Don't think I'll watch this one. Hours of pre-game scouse wankfest on Noggie TV, combined with the horrible possibility that it'll continue late into the night, is a good reason to do something else, just checking the score now and then.
Thanks.
Well you are talking about the midfield not the team right? Liverpool were the better team and they did it through not taking City on directly in midfield. It's good tactics.
Same. Not watching but will check in on this forum.
You mean you're not going to watch all the close ups of the pained Dipper faces as they're getting hammered by Madrid. Man, I hope they get tonked!
Well yeah, and I’d hope that we’re not daft enough to try and take on Madrid’s midfield three later either.
Play to your strengths, not your opponents.
Its good management by Klopp, and he knows himself that midfield needs to improve (Keita and possibly Fekir).
Our forums are crap.
Milner, Henderson Wijnauldum vs. Casemiro, Kroos, Modrić
Is this expected midfields today?

That's Liverpool fans for you
Just stick them on ignore if you don't want to see the thoughts of oppo fans.
Yeah. I’ve seen some suggestions that Bale, Isco and Ronaldo will be their front three.
What about the Manchester United & Barca fans?
They are still alive?
They are still alive?
Latest suggestions point out at Isco, Ronaldo and Benzema.
I'll take a 4-0 with 3 liverpool players sent off inside the first 10 minutes, thank you very much
May the best team win tonight! And Ronaldo to score an hatrrick...
Seems weird to leave Bale out when he’s in form?
A Madrid ITK just said that will play the BBC.Let's see if Isco or Casemiro...
Now time for siesta,to relax and dream with a red card

If it ends up that way, then I'll soak in every minute of the post-match tears. And the countless GIFs that would no doubt enrich our lives. But 2005 was awful. Not going to watch anything like that again.
It's not that i, and many others here, don't want to see the thoughts of opposing fans but i'd rather converse with United supporters.
I really worry about Marcelo tonight. He's clearly not going to deviate from his normal game (i.e, plow forward at every opportunity) and that could be the defining factor tonight. Obviously he's not bloody stupid and he knows the threat that Salah possesses, but i just don't think it's in him to be a little more disciplined in his defensive duties.
But it doesn't seem illogical to use Isco to control midfield when Liverpool are at their best during the first 30 minutes of the game, and use Bale in the last 30 minutes vs tired legs.
The thing is, both guys are brilliant at what they do, it's not an easy task for Zidane to choose the starting eleven.
Between them they've got lots of hair!
It's modern football though. Roberto Carlos has three Champions Leagues, and Marcelo has also three. If the formula didn't work Zidane wouldn't insist on it.
Which ITK?
Kammy has spoken.
Yeah that’s a good point. Bale could cause Alexander-Arnold all sorts of problems.
