The only way Liverpol will win the final is they’re full throttle for the 90. There were holes everywhere. Like, EVERYWHERE. It doesn’t matter that Roma were equally bobbins, or that RM conceeded 19 shots against BM, or this is the season of no-defence: Liverpool were shocking at the back
I really like him and wish him nothing but the best, but unless TAA spends three weeks intensive bootcamp with Paolo Maldini. he’s gonna get horribly gaped by Marcelo and Ronaldo.
If RM have watched the games where Liverpool have struggled this season I suspect they’ll just sit back & wait for the right opportunities to arise. They might also have noticed how frequently Liverpool seem to concede late goals. (running out of steam?) But even RM don’t seem to be at the levels they were at perhaps a couple of years ago (begging the question, who actually has been outstanding in the CL this season?) so Liverpool have every chance in Kiev provided the occasion doesn’t get to their less experienced players.
If Liverpool win it & finish in the top 4 does it mean that 5th gets a spot? If Arsenal happened to win the EL what effect does that have on the places for English teams? Utd won last year from outside the top 4 so we had 5 places but if Liv & Arsenal were both to win?
Still not quite clear but at most, only 5 teams from England can be in the CL.
There are the following scenarios.
Lverpool finish in top 4 & don’t win CL -> top 4 qualify (+ Arsenal if they win EL)
Liverpool finish in top 4 & do win CL -> not sure
Liverpool don’t finish in top 4 & don’t win CL -> top 4 qualify (+ Arsenal if they win EL)
Liverpool don’t finish in top 4 but do win CL -> top 4 + Liverpool qualify (+ Arsenal if they win EL which would remove 4th placed team)
When Liverpool won the CL last time they finished fifth they then changed the rule so that winners automatically qualified. Everton who finished in forth place lost out on qualification.
