@@gomey70 Even Spitting Image had Hansen and Hill on at the time. Jimmy Hill appeared less and less as a pundit after the 1991/92 season. His debate with Hansen about a penalty that should have been awarded in the 1992 Cup Final is worth watching. I think I have it somewhere in my collection. If I find it I’ll upload it.
I never went to football matches as I wanted to play football rather than watch. I ‘supported’ WHU when I watched on TV. I DID go to Anfield once (1985 last home game with a mate who was an avid Liverpool supporter). What a great atmosphere in the Kop. Anyway, I still like watching Liverpool in the classic era (can’t stand ‘modern’ football though)! This was a really interesting match and seeing a young team growing in confidence. Liverpool has had some awesome teams!
I used to have this game on tape and watched it over and over again almost solely for the atmosphere and the aesthetics of the old kop. I dreamed that one day I would get to stand on The Kop or even just sit a little to the side of it in the main stand, and finally witness and immerse myself in this majestic stand in real life. I have to admit this dream of one day going to Anfield has lost its allure for me with the seated kop because it just isn't quite the same.
I went to this game. 32 years ago. Can't believe all them years gone. Don't remember that the crowd was so sparse that night. I stood on the Kop next to the Kemlyn Road stand. I was 21years old. A lot has happened for Liverpool since 1991, but, the best Liverpool teams were in the 80s. I'm sure we would have won at least a couple more European Cups in the year's that we were kicked out of European competition and that Everton team could quite easily have had a good go the year Steau Bucharest won it, but for the English club ban.
This was our first season back in Europe after the six year ban...So sad that the great Liverpool team of the late 80s didn't play in Europe...We will need this kind of atmosphere at anfield if we are to make it to Kiev next may...
Horrendous how poor Liverpool were at that time. Souness was so out of his depth it was shocking. Alienated the winners in the team and blooded the young players in far too early to be first team players. Liverpool, as well as English football suffered greatly with the quality compared to European teams. They were ahead in terms of technical ability and Liverpool were light years away from that. Souness obviously knew the game was going like that from playing in Italy, but some of the shite he bought and bizarre decisions selling quality like Beardsley, Houghton and McMahon was a disgrace. He set Liverpool behind 10 years.
I agree. Souness seemed like he would be the dream replacement for Dalglish. I remember hearing speculation on BBC Sports Report at the time that Souness was in the shake up as a replacement for Dalglish following Dalglish’s resignation in 1991, but I never thought he’d leave Rangers. Souness believed that the training methods he learned at Sampdoria would translate to Liverpool easily but they translated to an injury crisis in 1991/92. Also, feeling threatened by or not trusting the senior players like McMahon, Houghton and Beardsley was a massive misjudgment. As was selling very good, experienced players like Gillespie and Staunton.
@@peterlpool1387 The reputation projected by the Tory government at the time that all football fans were animals. By 1991 it had calmed down but there were still some nutters such as the random fan that decided to join the Auxerre goalkeeper in the first half 🤣
@@martynstembridge7714 I must admit, I didn't go. I had a, season ticket at the time but I already had a ticket for a rock concert in London (bought and planned months before).
Hansen's face whenever Hill is talking is hilarious.

It is very interesting to watch Steve McManaman playing forward.
I was at the game….. when the 3rd went on I looked around in the Kop and with the flares etc it was incredible!!!!!
Jimmy Hill retreating quite nicely with his comments after the game but that said I felt the same in 2005 at half time in Istanbul ...funny old game.
Was at this game. Shear Loyalty as I did not expect them to win . Small attendance but what a noise Was made.

Miss the Kop.
My first game. In the kop. It was boss
Liverpool sure did boss this game
Surprising to see a Jack in the kop

Don’t remember that Pitch “invasion” in 1st half.
What a fuckin atmosphere la, should be up for it in the semi-final against Southampton fucking come on redmen
Great comeback after 1st leg but poor attendance
anfield was being redeveloped at the time so enforced lower crowd you thick fuck
That's just how it was back in the day. A lot of moderate fans were scared away by the 'hooligan' reputation
The Kop turned up
@@billkent6037 what hooligan reputation?

Fuckenhell how empty was anfield before all the glory hunters turned up
Most games were full. I have no idea why it was half empty here.
Maravilloso ambiente, parecen cien mil personas.
@@lyndoncmp5751 Low incomes at the time, and the feeling it was a lost cause for some?
