The only downside to the last English team getting hilarious knocked out by a team that finished third in a ‘farmers league’ is the fact the Scottish Liverpool ‘fans’ who have never been to Liverpool are joyous about it. An absolute minter. 

You can console yourself with the knowledge that they were knocked out in humbling circumstances at the last 16 stage.

I thought they finished seventh?

You could fill a keg and pour a few delicious pints from those BT commentary tears - attempting to build another annual fantasy grievance for their financial cheat heroes before the comic third goal blows even that out the water.

McManaman's bad enough, but Fletcher's constant screaming any time the ball goes into the penalty box is unbearable. There really needs to be a no commentary option added as soon as possible.

I’m starting to warm to having McManaman and co as commentators.

Watching Premiership teams get horsed out of Europe wouldn’t be as much fun without witnessing the slow change from arrogance and overconfidence at the start of a game to blame and anger at the end.

Absolute state of this.

It’s a disgraceful tweet, but you can’t help but feel a lot of people will share his sentiments that black players should just play football. We’ve a long way to go. 

There was a poster here calling him 'big headed egotistical'. I've never seen him show off, personally. I wonder what makes him think that?

Missed that, but exactly this, there’s nothing in his character that suggests he’s arrogant, but you see people suggest that all the time. Some people just don’t like black people to have an opinion on anything.

He always comes across as a good guy and not egotistical, maybe because he ditched  Liverpool to join Man City because of the money they were throwing at him makes people question his integrity though.

The papers hammered into Sterling for years. The media coverage he got was a disgrace. Lots of people still assume that blatant racism isn't rampant in the press and therefore any slagging Sterling got was legit.

Nobody questions John Stones or David Silva’s integrity 

Some people probably do. I’m just playing devils advocate here but Sterling came through the ranks at Liverpool, almost won the league there in 13/14 losing out to Man City who he then joined in 2015 for more money and the fact they were better at the time. Liverpool have since improved and won the premiership for the first time and won the CL which is something that Sterling hasn’t come anywhere close to at City. It makes a lot of people think GIRUY when they don’t succeed which is why people find the miss last night so amusing.
