Sliding Doors moment..a "What if ?" scenario

11 May 2003.  Liverpool beat Chelsea in the last game of the season and qualify for the Champions' League at Chelsea's expense.  Roman Abramovic decides not to put his money into the financially ailing club, who spiral down the divisions, with nobody shedding a tear for them. 

 

Liverpool get royally bummed in the 2003/04 Champions' League.

 

 

 

Unfortunately that would have meant us buying John Terry...

Christmas 2013. The linesman at the Etihad correctly allows Raheem Stirling's clearly onside goal to stand. Everything else stays the same - Stevie G's slip, the 3-3 at Palace, etc. - but Liverpool are Champions.

People talk about this one a lot, but that was at 0-0. Had that been allowed the game wouldn’t have played out as it then did. I’d point to Sterling spooning over in the last few minutes, or Mignolet fucking up for the Negredo goal as the sliding doors moments. Maybe I’m a pedant.

That's why I specified everything else stays the same. Also, what annoys me most about this one is that the player did exactly what he was supposed to do and got nothing for it.

Yeah, fair enough hadn’t thought of it like that. Most people talk about it in terms of us going 2-0 up. Time travel eh? Blows my mind. The deleted scenes from The Terminator are a total headfuck.

This is probably the most controversial one but if Liverpool had not been barred from Europe, they would probably have a lot more than 5 European Cups.

Or if Kolo Toure hadn’t passed the ball straight to the West Brom foreword on the edge of our box

If we hadn't capitulated against Sevilla and won the Europa League. Would have been a big monkey off our back in terms of our lack of trophies the last decade and we would have gone straight back into the Champions League. Hopefully speeding up the process of getting rid of our shite players with the extra money.

The club asks Kenny to come back a rest in 1991 and finish up winning the league in 1991. He goes on to sign Shearer Keane and Schmeichel and we win another 6 league titles and a couple of Champions leagues

We signed some utter shite in the early 90s. I think Schmeichel had a trial at Liverpool while Souness was the manager but he didn't want to buy an unknown keeper from Denmark. Schmeichel was a Liverpool fan too.
