    Robbie Fowler… was my favourite player at the time, and now all these years later, he still is! So many memories, so many great goals.. his early years were nothing short of incredible, and really took the EPL by storm.. undoubtedly one of the greats!

      Henry & Bergkamp were great no doubt but to say that none of Liverpool's famous attacking players come close is just completely bias crap. The list of great Liverpool attackers is endless, the partnership that would have rivalled any in the PL era would have been peak Torres & Suarez but unfortunately it never happened but by god that would have been some partnership.
      TBH even when you had those great players you still struggled to beat us most of the time while we have taken the piss out of your lot so many times I've lost count. Arsenal to me now are just a joke, good for a giggle but no threat whatsoever.

When I walked into the pub, a fella with a liverpool top on told me it was 3-3, I thought he was winding me up. Couldnt believe it when I looked at the TV screen. I could hardly watch the rest of the game and the penalties, my nerves were wrecked. All sorts of emotions in one day but it was great.

    史提芬麥馬拿文我挺喜歡呢位球員因為喺我青春歲月利物浦7號一個月盤球快速嘅中場往往交致命嘅傳送畀flora啦同埋米高奧雲雖然喺利物浦踢咗咁多年都未能成為超聯冠軍喺1999年至到2000年當時仍然叫做歐洲聯賽球隊杯決賽係由皇家馬德里對住你次次同係西班牙足球隊華倫西亞呢場比賽史提芬麥馬拿文貢獻咗一個入球2比0嗰一球波佢以一個名叫做腳趾尾拉西隨後再由如冇記錯應該係摩連迪斯該場比賽皇家馬德里爾3比0贏咗華倫西亞成為歐洲聯賽冠軍盃冠軍麥馬拿文可以話係無悔佢嘅足球事業渴望得到嘅冠軍呢喺利物浦未能實現但係轉會皇家馬德里第一個年頭已經可以實現咗佢嘅叫做夢想呀仲淺遠超出佢預期嘅成果不但成為聯賽冠軍並且係歐聯決賽仲有入波😎其實呢我都唔想咁長氣因為呢瘦田冇人耕耕開呢就有人爭好奇怪

    Was there really any need for 14 minutes worth of it?

    Probably the lot who switched to Chelsea and now Man City.

    Goal 3 should hardly count. How did that one get through. I could have stopped that one. The keeper was clearly incensed with himself.
