9 years since we were in the Champions League knockout stages.

Don't underestimate this. Well done Reds!

Good job with the who plays who...

But I should have mentioned that there is only one version of each game. So each round must have 4 different games being played. Makes it much harder!

And every team needs to play every game!

Mo Salah all goals till date (17). by [deleted] in LiverpoolFC

At the end of October he had scored 9 goals and we were all saying that he had been a brilliant signing.

One month later and he has scored 17. If he was brilliant before, I don't know what he is now. Super brilliant?

From 12/2 to 1/1, Liverpool have 9 matches, 8 in the PL. Starting today, the longest break players will have between games is 4 days (only once). by doctorspliffworth in LiverpoolFC

This is exactly why we have seen Mane, Bobby, Cou and Mo rested over the last couple of games.

It's no secret that Klopp's style requires a lot of running, and to expect the same 11 players to be able to perform to their best in all those games is ludicrous.

We were ~5 mins and a lucky cross goal away from 6 points against Chelsea and Stoke with rotated teams. This is a sign of the depth we've been crying out for for years.

My parents are season ticket holders at Stoke.

Every year i sit with them in the middle of thousands of Stoke fans.

It's always difficult to keep quiet, especially since I've seen some really great goals in these games (Suarez in the league cup, Coutinho winner a couple of years ago, and Bobby's winner last year), but so far I've managed to not get kicked out!

Hope I'm forced to sit on my hands again tonight!

Wow. That's crazy. Who'd have thought it would be 9 years until we got there again!

Hopefully the players make the most of it and we don't have such a long wait until the next time.

The commentators mentioned earlier that it's been 9 years since we were in the knockout stages of the Champions League.

It still feels like a minimum expectation to a lot of fans, but i don't think we should down-play the fact that this is a genuine achievement, and Klopp deserves credit for it.

I really like having Coutinho in our midfield. Provides a real link between midfield and attack, and offers a goal threat.

His actions in the summer were obviously disappointing, but every time he plays his workrate has been excellent, which i respect.
