A thread in deference to all those who want to vent their spleen on whether Liverpool beat AC Milan or not in the Champions League final in Istanbul tonight and who don’t have the cúpla focal.Although the furthest thing from a Liverpool fan, Rafael Benitez is a top man in my view, especially for humbling Chelsea boss Jose Mourinho with his tactical nous in the semi-finals, so I’ll not be too upset if the Reds claim a fifth European Champions trophy. So far, everyone is well behaved in Istanbul and there’s a party atmosphere.
