msc 18,476 Posted November 8, 2017 From the Guardian article about his return, btw: Quote Liverpool will not be able to play this get-out-of-jail card every week, though it is hard to envisage a side with the massive self-belief demonstrated in their 2-0 win over Roma going out of the competition to Bayer Leverkusen. With the prospect of Manchester United awaiting in a semi-final, which would guarantee the presence of an English club in the final in Glasgow, no one imagines Anfield has seen the last of its great European nights this season. Brilliant prediction there. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Spade_Cooley 9,535 Posted November 8, 2017 I believe Thompson was never officially the caretaker/temporary manager of Liverpool, he only performed the role and was never given any official title or position by the club. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Deathray 2,940 Posted November 13, 2017 Buffon applauding the Swedish national anthem while the rest of the stadium boos it and whistles over it, shows why he truly is a good guy. Sad to see his international career end like this though. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Grim Up North 3,726 Posted December 1, 2017 Hmmm - I think I might score just over 50%. Front Row: Maradonna, Banks, Blanc (?), a Brazilian or possibly Ruud Gullit pulling a funny face????, recognise but can't place, Forlan (?) Back Row: Looks like a lad I went to school with but suspect he might be a footballer too. Have you got a better close up of the woman in the background?

msc 18,476 Posted December 1, 2017 The Brazilian is Cafu, and "recognise but can't place" is, as Spade points out, Cannavaro. Back row is Carlos Puyol. In his grunge phase apparently. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Grim Up North 3,726 Posted December 1, 2017 Thanks - I would have been guessing a long time before I said Carlos Puyol! I think if it was a Magnificent Seven remake Maradonna would be one of the bandidos. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
