Anfield is a class stadium in a decent little city 18:21 - Jan 25 with 13282 viewsMullet

Absolute tourist trap though, only scousers I heard all day were the stewards. I’ve not experienced such a lack of atmosphere since I nearly drowned in Queenstown years ago. Made the Etihad feel like Galatasaray. Not since Wetherspoons built an empire has a beautiful building been so full of cheap tat and lost souls.

Salah is absolute class and I guess it’s a privilege to see him at work scoring like that, but today was a hiding to nothing. Morsy looked like he was a touch too many off the level unfortunately. No shame when these lot are being handed the title and can produce stuff at a canter like that. Slot is a very good manager.

Our goal was obviously a moment. Loved how Enciso demanded the ball off Phillips and hit a scud missile into the box. We are going to hurt teams with him and philogene adding to what we’ve got. People filming and joining in with their show tune dirge were astounding. In exactly the opposite way to the rest of the away end. Absolute brilliant gallows humour, defiance and limbs.

Think we might not see Burns again. He went down in front of us and it sounded worse than it looked. All about the oxygen now.

FWIW I thought every part of Liverpool I saw (stadium aside) was an absolute dive.

Streets a mess, a few crack head women with push chairs walking by, houses burnt out, cars burnt out. Just horrible.

I get that’ll upset a few who seem to be 50/50 town and Liverpool, but hey ho


I walked from the station to the ground and it felt pretty grim. Not unsafe just abandoned and ignored.

I'm sure the middle is gentrified with edgy bars and restaurants but the reality was obvious.

The North is great but I'd avoid the urban spots. Get on the pennine way or explore the Cheviots. Unbelievable wilderness.

I know that was then, but it could be again..

There aren't many football grounds in England which are neither in an inner-city area or a soulless out of town area.

And would you write off the whole of London if all you had ever done was visit Millwall or Charlton?

I don't see the problem with those who originate from abroad choosing a team. Not everybody grew up in Liverpool and if they have an interest in UK football, they fair enough choose a team. At least they didn't choose Chelsea or Man City or Man Utd :-)

Similarly, I am a Miami Dolphins fan, I try to go to a game in Miami once every couple of years, but I didn't grow up in Miami.
