Imagine how he would deal with a real star

Harry Kane is Tottenham.

1) why did anyone think he wouldn't play the entire game?

2) why is it even a question he should play? He's Spurs best player. He plays if he's fit. Imagine starting Moura over Kane in a CL final.

He should have had a pen too. Although he was doubled and mostly ineffectual

Overall I'm not all that upset.

Spurs didn't bottle it. They didn't play well, but they were overall the more impressive team. They made the CL final and had a crazy run. Can't ask for much more from a team like Tottenham. Feels bad the game was so crap though

It's good to see you're about as classy as you are racist bud.

I wouldn't talk anyway seeing as Pool were arguably outplayed by Spurs, according to the eye test and to statistics (xG).

Thank the refs bud. Aren't you the guy who has been calling for Klopp to be sacked up until now? Numpty Laughing

Congrats to Pool and their fans

It's crazy that players like Matip, Henderson, Lovren etc are all CL winners now

Klopp is a fucking genius and he deserves it after so many final heartbreaks. Ban that numpty Unique if he speaks anything negative about him ever again.

The Worst Final

by Nishankly on Sun Jun 02, 2019 11:54 am

GET THE FUCK IN FFS

by Nishankly on Sun Jun 02, 2019 11:58 am

Kane should have been subbed. Firmino was in the same condition and we took him off at the 60th for Origi and voila, Origi scored.

The first goal basically allowed us to play the game at our pace. We absorb teams like they are water on a sponge with this defense. Spurs had no chance after the first goal and everyone knew that's how Liverpool was going to play. We don't go guns out blazing ever now.

Insane champions mentality to ride games out after going 1 up from a team that conceded for fun last year.

So Spurs fans can make themselves feel better about playing better but to be honest we didn't even need to get out of first gear and killed the game like we always do.

Also lads talking about a shit final, maybe next time be there to make it better ffs

6 TIMESSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS

Spurs could have played for 3 hours and not score. Liverpool with that 50% pass success rate and 30% possession, decided by a penalty in the first minute. It really was the worst CL final I've seen.

Congrats to Pool. Happy to see Klopp winning

by Great Leader Sprucenuce on Sun Jun 02, 2019 12:50 pm

Haven't watched it, don't see why any neutral would watch the Super Carabao Cup final tbh.

But i refuse to believe it was worse than Juventus and Milan lol.

That's an absolute impossibility.

It really was, this was something else entirely

by Great Leader Sprucenuce on Sun Jun 02, 2019 1:16 pm

You're not exactly speaking from a balanced viewpoint lol.

You weren't a neutral in that game so obviously you'd enjoy it more.

I enjoy Newcastle games more than most neutral games, despite the fact we're shit. That's just the reality of fandom.

I'm not speaking from a balanced viewpoint yet you are speaking without actually having watched the game hmm

Yes lol.

But you can't really speak about games involving your team lol.

I admit i don't either, which is why I'd like opinions from people who aren't Serie A fans lol.

by The Demon of Carthage on Sun Jun 02, 2019 1:52 pm

A bit late to the party, but congrats to Pool and all of their GL fans here!

You know, in life, you have to always try to stay classy; but there are moments when you really can't help yourself. This is one of them.

Remember when not too long ago, Mourinho said that he has envy for Klopp because he gets to spend without being required to win trophies? Well:

It's why I log in tbh, to see these awesome lads suffer constantly and CB is probably top 3 in who I want to suffer. First being Hans obviously.

May his suffering continue

Worse, no but it as at the same level of boredom. I know the final wasn't meant for me but it was really mediocre.

Acceptable answer, that i can believe.

That being said, the Jjuve/Milan final would still be quite a number of folks "worst CL final" due to the fact the quality of the players on show did not match the quality of the football at all. To put things in some perspective, which line ups you expect to play some decent football:

Jjuve: Buffon, Thuram, Ferrera, Tudor, Montero, Camorensi, Tacchinardi, Zambrotta, Davids, Trezegay, Del Piero
Milan: Dida, Costacurta, Maldini, Nesta, Kaladze, Gattuso, Pirlo, Rui Costa, Seedorf, Sheva, Inzaghi

Pool: Allison, Trent, Matip, van Dyke, Robertson, Fabinho, Hendo, Wijnaldum, Salah, Firmino, Mane (very good team imo)
Spurs: Lloris, Rose, Vertonghen, Alderweild, Tripper, Winks, Sissoko, Son, Ali, Eriksen, Kane
