I hate arrogant know-it-alls
Of course leaving is active and not posting isnt, but there are lots of active terms used here that cant be taken literally. For example, it can be said that now Im talking to you, but literally Im not

I can't say how the next fifteen minutes will go ... whats your point? One makes assumptions on a game based on a team's past performance as a whole. As a result, given Milan's consitency in Europe AND Serie A vis-a-vis Liverpool's 5th place in Premier and 'shockers' in Europe I think its fair to say WHO the favorite is.
Milan were never in danger of getting booted out from PSV....the scoreline was never in PSV's favor to close the game. A miracle would have had to occur..it did not.
what a shame
Funny you mention that. Because here is what gets me. For years I have been hearing the English sports media criticize Italian football, Italian coaches, Italian teams and Serie A as a whole for its 'playing style' and mentality. Labelling it 'boring'...anti-football, etc. Then we have little Liverpool which apparently to these journalists is evidence that English football is back.
However,
Liverpool beats Juve 2-1 (1 goal margin)
Then Liverpool holds Juve down for 90 minutes...0-0
Liverpool then holds Chelsea down 0-0 for 90 minutes.
Then they pop one in on Chelsea and the rest of the match pray and build a defensive wall as Chelsea attack all night long.
Hmmm interesting strategy...when Italians do it ..its called 'catenaccio'...when Liverpool does it they call it "heart"..perseverance, etc.
Sell that sh*t to the tourists....Liverpool 'ripped' a page from the catenaccio text book.
