Found out an interesting little fact before.

No team has 'ever' overcome a 2 goal or greater deficit sustained in the first leg of a European Cup tie at home.

It happened in the 60's a few times, but the rules were different then (no away goals or extra time, if the scores were level there was to be a replay).

Interesting eh.

Milan won 4-1 in San Siro but lost 4-0 in Spain (gawd it was painful to watch)

I watched the return leg of that, amazing stuff.

It wasn't what I meant though. If Deportivo won 4-1 at the San Siro, and Milan won 4-0 in Spain then that would have applied.

Just like Chelsea won 3-1 at Anfield, we would have to win 3-1 (for extra time) or by 3 or more goals to qualify, and no team has overcome a 2+ goal difference after losing the first leg at home.

It's gonna be one of our toughest challenges of that there is no doubt, but we aren't defeated yet. Liverpool are one of the best teams in the business at snatching awesome results out of seemingly impossible odds.

Whatever Rafa has stewing in that mighty spanish brain of his, he needs every ounce of it tonight

I really don't care who wins tonight, I just want to see some good piece of football.

Tomorrow it will be another challenge for us, the players need to be at their best. And with Rio back from is back problem at the back of our defense (not sure he will play though) we can make it.

    • I like the show more options. The only problem with it is that it's not always in a consistent spot in the menu. If the copy/paste/cut, happens to show on top, then more option is the last in the menu. But if copy/paste/cut happens to show on the bottom, then more options is before the copy/paste/cut. But I do like the more options because it hides the stuff that I rarely use. But I would like to choose what it is or isn't hiding. That would make it better.
    • I wonder if "put it back the way it was for decades" ever crossed their minds? 🤣
    • Rescind the stupid "Show more options" in context menus and just give us the full menu instead of adding more steps to get to what we want. The "simpler by default" makes me think they'll go in the opposite direction. Every context menu should have a configure button so you can pick and choose what options should be shown, I know you can do that with some registry fu but that shouldn't be required.
    • This is why competition must exist. Finally, pressure is mounting on Microsoft to move in the right direction.
    • Microsoft is making Windows 11's context menus faster, simpler, and configurable by Taras Buria Five years ago, Windows 11 introduced redesigned context menus, offering users a simpler, more modern design. However, customers quickly discovered that the new menus leave a lot to be desired. Many are unhappy with performance (they are really slow), while others dislike the double-layed design, where many options are hidden behind the "Show more options" button. In addition, over the years, menus became cluttered and overloaded. While Microsoft has already fixed plenty of pain points across Windows 11, context menus remain mostly unchanged. Fortunately, Microsoft is finally listening. Marcus Ash, Design and Research Lead for Windows at Microsoft, responded to a tweet on X, confirming that the company is working on fixing Windows 11's context menus. Reworked context menus are supposed to be faster, simpler by default, and "configurable to what you use most." What the latter means is unknown, just like whether Microsoft plans to keep the classic menu alongside the modern one, but according to Marcus, the wait should finally be over soon, as he promised to "share our approach soon." Improved context menus will most likely appear first in Windows 11 preview builds in the Experimental Channel. While we wait for Microsoft to release them, you can try fixing context menus on your PC with a simple tool called Windows 11 Context Menu Manager. It lets you disable entries you do not need, not only cleaning up context menus, but also making them significantly faster. Microsoft has already improved Windows 11's Start menu and taskbar, so hopefully it will address user criticism of the context menu as well. Stay tuned for new Windows 11 preview builds, which usually arrive every Friday.
