Gerrard has been known to dive mate.

Although 'going down rather easily' may be more appropriate wording.

Yes, I don't doubt that he has done it before, but the point I am trying to make is that unlike Drogba, Ronaldo, and a few others he hasn't made a career habit of it, and most of all he certainly wouldn't feign injury to waste time.

When Man Utd get put out tomorrow I won't even visit this topic :p

I may support them, but are they hell beating Porto at their home ground in their current form. If Ferdinand doesn't start I can foresee another embarrassing defensive showing.

Given that United have been playing really badly, and that Porto haven't been beaten at home by an English team it has to be said they face a very difficult challenge. Personally I hope they go through, the more games they have to play, the better it is for Liverpool in the title runin

Incredible match that. Some indifferent Liverpool defending was, for me, the difference tonight as I felt without the defensive mistakes we could have gotten through, still a great performance and the lads did themselves proud tonight.

And drogba flopping around on the floor... What a friggin sissie, makes me laugh that Chelsea fans have the cheek to accuse Torres of being unsporting with Drogba pulling stunts like that. I hope that Barcelona put them out in the next round for that. No bitterness towards Chelsea in general tonight, but someone really does need to teach Drogba that football is a Man's game, the sooner he and ronaldo are out of the English game the better IMO

This!!!! A thousand times this! I eagerly await the day (Y)

Amazing game of football and as a neutral I do give more props to Liverpool for continuously attempting to come back and doing a pretty good job of it!

In the end Chelsea won it fair and square and kudos to them.

Those comments about Drogba are fair, he was really annoying. But you have to admit he was also way more better than Torres in that game. And I don't read any of you complaining about how invisible he was. With all the respect I have for them, Blackburn isn't Chelsea.

Torres was poor last night.

However, you cannot really imply he is poor against big clubs. Torres has scored five goals against Chelsea, and this is only his second season at Liverpool. He has also scored against Man Utd, Arsenal, Real Madrid, Inter Milan etc...

I don't imply anything, I just say he was on fire the wrong game.

Torres had a bad night, of that there is no question, he usually does suffer more when Gerrard isn't in the team as the 2 of them together are on a different planet, but in the general course of things Torres is far better than Drogba.

Lets sink the yellow submarine tonight!! With the Arsenal gun of course :p

I kinda want Arsenal to go through assuming we (United) go through too, we've played Villarreal 4 times now and 0 goals have been scored so could well be the most boring of semis if its Man U vs Villarreal :p

Damn English domination of CL :(

Awesome game last night, hope to see the same tonight..

Rooting for Porto & Villarreal :)

Strangely I want them both to win, I don't like the English domination in Europe I like it when at last there's a different country represented in the last 4 like Spain,Portugal,England (Y)

      The current Statcoungter desktop numbers has Google Chrome increasing it's market share this past year and currently commanding 75% share. Everybody else is just making up the numbers with even MS Edge losing 3% this past year and has dipped just below 10% share which is staggering considering it's default on every Windows deviced purchased. If these numbers are correct that terrible Edge number is both devastating and embarrassing for MS especially when you add in the terribly low Bing market share. This leads me to ask a couple of questions as the default browser holding just less than 10% market share seems really weird. It used to be that all Chromium browsers were being counted as Google Chrome in some cases.  Is this still happening? Do these high Google Chrome numbers contains some Edge user numbers?
    • Browser vendors pen open letter to Microsoft saying "enough is enough"

      Yeah, all web browsers seem to have some junk in them these days. The regular Brave browser has a lot of unnecessary stuff in it, similar to Microsoft Edge, so I don't see any benefits of using Brave over Microsoft Edge if you already have Microsoft Edge fully set up with adblockers and that. The cleanest or best free browser outside of 'Microsoft Edge' I’ve tried so far is 'Opera Air'. It still has some bloat, but nowhere near as much as Brave browser, for example. I also really like the web browser called 'Floorp' that is based on Firefox. I have a system wide Adblocking program for Windows 11 that doesn't just blocks ads in the the web browser, but over the whole thing. I don't really need a web browser with an inbuilt adblocker because of that.
