Ed001, i already told you how much i value your football knowledge, and after watching PSG being out of this world good again tonight, i got to take my hat off for you again! You had top a 10 managers article and you had Luis Henrique way up there, and now i know why. You should have worked in football.
{Ed001's Note - thank you Kurt, it is nice to see him getting back on track after the heartbreak he suffered. He deserves some luck after losing a young daughter. I can only imagine the pain he and his family went through.}

Fully agree. PSG look very impressive and for me are the best team in the CL. They are very dynamic, fluid and have creativity buzzing through them.
As an LFC fan I am still gutted. We left there with a 1 nil win, and a great chance of progressing at Anfield and went out at a whimper that was totally uncharacteristic for an LFC team in the 2nd leg home tie.
Full credit to Enrique. He seems a quality manager and deserves the accolades.

I want them to win it, just for him. An unbelievable man.

based off of very little info, just what we see on our telly, I feel like Enrique is a decent enough bloke. Spoke humbly in our battles with them this year too.
With their team they have recruited well and built their team much in the same way we have built ours over the years.

Faith, it’s easier to recruit very well when you’ve an entire nations wealth funding your transfers.

I agree with RitchieK. I can't stand PSG but I hope Luis Enrique wins the Champions League. The team he has assembled plays the most exciting football I have seen this season and no one should have to go through what he has gone through.

Psg head and shoulders best team I've seen this season.
{Ed025's Note - they are excellent Digger, but mind you they have not come up against great defences really mate, would the really be as good against a back line of Myko, Tarks, Branthwaite and big Jake? and Englands No 1?.. :)

Edd001 doue for psg, any Liverpool interest? Lads a superstar.
{Ed001's Note - PSG are not interested in selling right now.}

Anyone who blanks Gary Neville will do for me ?. Only joking, I don't really mind GN.
PSG is a good side but as Ed025 said, they've had it easy not having to feel the full force of Tarks and their wide players would struggle against Big Jake.
That's some atmosphere they create in Paris but I'm sure Doucoure and the others could handle it.
{Ed025's Note - PSG do have some fine players Rigsby. But could they cope with a rampant Jack Harrison?, we will see in a couple of years I expect mate ?

PSG are the best team in the CL this year yet we went out with a whimper to them by losing on penalty kicks, crazy. Maybe at the time people should have been aware of how good a team we'd played instead of being intent on hammering the players for losing in the most cruel of ways.

If we hadn't have given squad players a game against PSV then we could potentially have still been in the comp as we wouldn't have drawn PSG.
Yet lots of the arguments are that we should be giving squad players more game time.
{Ed001's Note - except you are conflating 2 different arguments. No one has said to play just the squad players, simply to rotate the first team a little more so that there is no need to play a team like went out of the FA or lost to PSV. So your argument is just nonsense and unrelated. Just another twisting of things to try and put out a false argument.}

Against Plymouth and PSV we had seven full internationals in both starting lineups.
I get that a lot of changes were made before both games but it could show why the squad players- despite being full internationals- are not as trusted by Slot as the regular starters.
Versus Plymouth we had a front three of Diaz, Jota and Chiesa. Elliott and Endo played in midfield (I know there was a change because of injury but still) .
They are all experienced players and could have got the job done.
