No way. We have an away goal, they won't be able to handle Anfield.

URZZZZ Not at the races tonight, but the away goal still gives them a chance of progress, and they’ve come back from worse than this over the past few years
Couple of strange calls from Klopp tonight though - not sure it was the right call dropping Firmino and the midfield was questionable. Furthermore, making a sub in the 43rd minute just before half time was rather strange too and perhaps rather unnecessary
If Keita’s Liverpool career was teetering after constant injuries and mediocre performances before tonight, a new level was hit with that early sub and I’d be surprised if he plays too many more times for Liverpool. For sure, they have too many CM’s, I count nine first team midfielders for them (Henderson, Fabinho, Jones, Milner, Shaqiri, Ox, Keita, Wijnaldum, Thiago) which is just too many, especially considering the lack of contribution from some of them
Finally, onto Trent, who’s demonstrated rather conflicting performances since his omission from the England squad with a superb game on Saturday before a rather disastrous one tonight. I guess it rather reaffirms the strength of his offensive play but also his limitations in defending against players with genuine quality. Either way, given the safety first approach of Mr Southgate - he may find himself in trouble

NathStPaul Really think Thiago is a poor fit for Liverpool, he just doesn't seem to be involved when he plays. You can tell he is very frustrated, seems to always pick up cheap bookings in games and has little or no influence. Not saying he is a bad player by any means but he is a bad fit for Liverpool.

Agree with all of that. Real had obviously made a decision to attack the space between TAA's poor positioning and Phillips' lack of pace, and it paid off. The first goal was horrific defensively. No pressure on Kroos, who pinged a training ground pass right on to Vinicius' chest - the forward had started in space between the two central defenders but moved on to the ball like they were wading through custard.
I'd be surprised if we see Keita again - there's not much stronger a message than hooking someone two minutes before the half-time break.

I just checked the fixtures, I'd assumed your Champions League QF was tonight but I can't see anything listed?

Ah yes, what a fortress Anfield has been this calendar year... Liverpool have been excellent at home... oh wait no.
