Are you kidding? Bayern were nowhere near favourites to win the CL last season. They are favourites to win it this season. How can you say honestly that they haven't improved?

Juventus are a better side than Liverpool. They've proven season after season that they're an elite team and have world class players all over the pitch in their lineup. Same with PSG and Bayern and Barcelona. Liverpool are almost there but are missing one or two players in my opinion.

That elite Juventus team who haven’t won a CL in nearly 25 years

Do you ever defend Man Utd this much bro? I've never seen you defend your "own club" like this.

Juventus are a quality team. No obviously weaknesses in their lineup.

😂 Try defending your own team first (allegedly Chelsea) and then we’ll talk

Bayern are way better this season than last tbf. A lot due to the change in manager.

That Barcelona team is better in 9/11 positions and they lost 4-0

It was a freak result. Any logic will tell you that

Any logic apart from sensible logic.

Is that how football works?

Yes generally the better team does normally win in football funnily enough

I guess Watford winning 3-0 against Liverpool isnt a freak result then?

Was Inter beating Barca in 2010 a freak result?

posted on 26/5/20

Liverpool were world-class as a team in terms of performance for around 1.5 seasons until Jan/Feb 2020.

But Wahl is right that they don’t really have any world-class players (maybe Salah & the goalie?) and you certainly wouldn’t look at their team on paper and think ‘that’s a great team’. On paper it’s a pretty bland roster.

Exactly, we were without Salah and Firmino, as well as Robertson going off early on and still thrashed them. By far the better team. Should have beat them in the first leg also, as we were all over them but suffered a freak result.

Exactly Liquid dude. Compare their lineup to Bayern or PSG and you can see the difference.

No. Inter were a much much much better side than this current Liverpool team.

Out of all the stupid comments on here. Firminos tooth or whatever he’s called saying that the Barca win wasn’t a freak result is the most stupid.

That’s not really how football works is it though? PSG have had great players for years now but don’t have the mentality to go all the way (yet). Football is a TEAM game and how that team works together is how you define what a world class TEAM is

OK so when the better team wins 3-0 its a freak result, but when the worse teams wins 4-0 that's totally cool. OK then

Delusion, pure furrrking delusion.

Oh, that's Firmino's brightest tooth, I was wondering who it was.

His delusion makes sense now.

Yeah, I know that but its a combination of all the factors put together, how good your players are, how well put together the team is, how good the manager is etc.

You're the expert when it comes to delusion to be fair.

posted on 26/5/20

It depends on what you mean by freak.

If you mean it would rarely happen then it's a freak result.

If you mean it in the sense that it was a mixture of Liverpool playing above themselves and Barca playing worse than expected then it wasn't a freak. It was a deserved win by the better team on the night.
The kind of thing that happens often.

Watford beating Liverpool was a rarity, but there was nothing freakish about it.

Personally freak to me means something different, such as a ball heading for goal hits a bird and gets diverted.

Well it was one goal more for a start.

Also in terms of xG it was 2.2 lvpool-1.2 Barcelona, and Liverpool had a weakened team.

For the other fixture it was 2.7 Barca - 1.6. More of an xG difference however less of a goal difference.

They were both freak results but the lpool one was more
