KopTalk.com Forums Football Liverpool FC Forum Well Spurs it is then

this is the way i see it

Basically, I think we all know the reality, i.e. there are lots of ifs and buts etc.... but in a nutshell anything can happen on the day. Either side could win comfortably, by a narrow margin or even due to a stroke of luck.

Perhaps the best thing is that we just accept that whatever will be, will be and try to enjoy the build up. I suspect we'll only enjoy the game itself if we win comfortably. Even then, especially give recent events, say we're 2-0 or even 3-0 up at half time... we'll all still be nervous thinking we could be the next victims of an unexpected comeback

Spurs beat City over two legs to reach the semifinal, and then came from 3 down in the 2nd half to beat A decent albeit a somewhat naive Ajax side, so they're no mugs. Given that we'll be coming off a junket, they could very well catch us flat, and if we are the least bit flat they'll likely take full advantage. Spurs won't hand this CL title to us on a platter, we'll have to turn up 100% focused to win it IMO.

Agreed Hercules but if we are 100% on the job we will win it.

I’m not sure why we’d be flat and Spurs wouldn’t? We finish the league at the same time and so have the same time to prepare. We will keep ourselves sharp as I’m sure they will.

It's a long break (3 weeks) between end of the PL season and CL final, so preparing will be key for both teams, we tend to struggle after an extended break, like when we went to Spain and Dubai for warm weather training, but I don't think either team has an advantage with this.

We should win as comfortably as Real won it last year. We are I think 21 pts ahead of them are have spent much more than them as well. Big opportunity for Klopp to win us a trophy

As Klopp has pointed out: The 21 point deficit doesn't show the difference in max capacity. It shows how up and down Spuds have been compared to us.

On a good day they might punish us, but on average we would win.

Hope June 1:st an average day (at least) then!
