You should know better than to apply this ridiculous logic.
Mainz beat Bayern, the very same Bayern that beat Juve.
Therefore, Mainz would be considered favourites to win Serie A
Why don't you use the same reasoning to argue that Dortmund disposed Spurs 5-1 on aggregate, the very same Spurs that's 2nd in a league in which you are merely 7th?!
Dortmund is a better team than you. They have better players, they play better than you, and they have consistently performed better than you.
Therefore, they are strong favourites against you, and you are nowhere near favourites in EL.

Re: EL QF | Borussia Dortmund vs Liverpool FC
Bigger than other teams was my inference, not bigger than Liverpool.
lol whatever you say Hans. You just come off as a bitter Bundesfodder fan lately. Hating on everything. Go on a date or something. Excited for you to follow Pep to City though.

I think Liverpool will put up a top show. Still think Dortmund will make it though.

3-1 Chelsea (away)
4-1 City (away)
3-3 Arsenal (home -- deserved better, ffs Mignolet)
0-1 United (home, were the much better team though, didn't take their chances/De Gea show)
1-1* City (neutral)
3-0 City (home)
2-0 United (home, could have easily been 5-0 if not for DDG)
1-1 United (away)
Again, Dortmund are obviously the favourites, but Liverpool have really had a lot of success against teams that haven't played extremely compact and deep defensively against them. Teams that have come to play and look to be positive have mostly been outplayed. It makes this tie extremely exciting especially since Klopp also knows most of the players at Dortmund very well.RED wrote:Easy win for Dortmund.
Salty this guy is with how easily their dross lot was dispatched from Europe.
Got nothing to do with being salty you moron, it's the fact that dortmund are a much better team than liverpool.

'Hating on everything'?
How do you come to that conclusion?
On the contrary, I'd be happy for Liverpool to win the EL. I just don't consider you among the favourites.
But I'd certainly much prefer you to win it than bloody Sevilla again.
Still, I'd consider tham far bigger favourites than Liverpool.
Not sure where hating comes into it.
As for that 'follow Pep to City' line, really? You think it's so good you've used it twice already?

Re: EL QF | Borussia Dortmund vs Liverpool FC
Ya. It's my go to now, Franz.
But really Sevilla are not "far bigger favourites" than Liverpool. Just because a team has won a competition in the past doesn't make them favourites to win it again just on that basis. The EL is very strong this year, and Liverpool have a better team than which is healthy now, and a coach that can make use of that. Dortmund are on another level to any other team in the competition, too.
Sevilla have better experience in Europe but I wouldn't say they are more likely to win than Liverpool and they're not a better team.

Liverpool have done nothing yet. How is being 8th in the weakest season for EPL in recent memory placing them above the 2 times winners?
And how did Sevilla start their EL run this time? by beating Basel 3-0. Solid result.
"better experience in Europe" is an understatement when they win it twice in a row and Liverpool haven't done anything in Europe for years. Accept that you are not favorites

Re: EL QF | Borussia Dortmund vs Liverpool FC
Better team as in better team than Sevilla or better team than last year. Or you meant a better playing team which I would not disagree with you, Liverpool is playing better nowadays.
If it is better than Sevilla then I would have to disagree. Not that Sevilla is some strong ass side but there isn't any real way to prove that unless they meet up or Liverpool win the whole thing. Better team than last year, well, you'll know more than me on that one.

Re: EL QF | Borussia Dortmund vs Liverpool FC
They are better playing ATM and have better players. It's just about making sure to keep that consistency and get the team to play in a cohesive manner consistently.
Though again, it's hard to quantify that given unless Liverpool beat Dortmund they're not likely to face eachother, and Dortmund are rightful favourites to progress over Liverpool.

Alright now that the borefest of CL is over.
Back to the main event.
Hopefully Gundogan and Firmino are fit to start. Want both sides to be at their strongest.

Dortmund this year are a team that would make it to the CL semis at least and maybe even the final. They are incredible and Liverpool are a mediocre team
4-1 dortmund
4-1 dortmund

The moment our players feel inferior to them its over, Confidence is the key to last in this game. Dortmund is not the best team in the world, They are beatable.
