Hilarious. Top post.

I've lived in Liverpool for the last 7 years and I've got some respect for Scosusers, despite the East Lancs divide (they all hate the Rags).

But I can't argue with your post!!!

Last time they stole my car's stereo, I hope they spare the replacement from insurance this time.
 
The gulf in class between us is obvious. Objectively speaking only Salah and there’s a case for VVD making it into our starting 11 with Mane on the bench.

Their midfield is much much weaker which will be key in this game and their defense is also not good take away VVD and their CBs are average as are their fullbacks. They have a strong attack but Coutinho is gone making it significantly weaker.

On Sunday we’ll have a great chance to take points and I think we’ll win but they will score.

Their fabled home form this season is actually not that impressive. Destroyed Arsenal (not a surprise), drew 0-0 with the rags and 1-1 with Chelsea. Nothing special really.

With Silva back hopefully as well as Delph, a rested Walker, a rested Fernandinho, and Aguero on fire, I am fairly confident we’ll finally get the win their this season.

I can honestly say that I won't be gutted if we lose and are ONLY 12 points ahead with 15 games remaining. Unbeaten streaks are not something to get down about when they finally end, missing out narrowly on titles and trophies - THAT would be gutting.

Agreed, my sentiment was that I’d be gutted if Liverpool ended it. Their fans are deluded and self entitled enough without having the opportunity to say it was them that ended it.

I’m under no illusions that the streak will end soon enough. I would just rather it wasn’t Liverpool or the vermin.

Not forgetting home draws with Burnley and West Brom if I remember correctly. Also you didn’t mention the fact that they don’t have a decent keeper
 
If we can beat Chelsea, then I see no reason why we cannot do the same at Anfield.
Liverpool will obviously be full of bluster, piss and vigour in the first 10-15 mins.
if we can land the first blow, their insecurities will resurface, and while I see no 5-0 drubbing, strangling the game with possession and a 2-0 win is well within our grasp.
Mistakes may well be the difference in this game, Ederson v Mignolet could be the difference if both sides defend as we as they can.
 
It’s about time we went there and won. I was there the last time in 2003 and we snatched the three points. We have finished above them every season this decade so there is no reason why we would continuously drop points there but in truth we haven’t really come close. A few draws and a few thrashings. Let’s end that this weekend and continue to defy the odds. Positive mind frame needed, we have nothing to fear.
 
Like every team in the Premier League, if we're not on our game it will be tough, but I think most of the trepidation is caused by our past record there and the fact the whole world wants them to win. The reality is they are 18 points behind us with a goal difference half of ours, the gulf in class is huge. Bring our A game and we win.

That’s right 1-1 with Burnley and also 2-2 at home vs Sevilla in September. Then in December 0-0 with West Brom just after 1-1 with Everton at home as well. Not special at all.

Forgot to mention their error prone keeper. They are much weaker then us. FFS we set a league record of 18 consecutive league wins that may never be broken if I’m honest.

There is nothing to fear at Anfield. Napoli away and Chelsea away were the tougher matches. Some posters here need to wake up.

We all know Liverpool aren’t that great, but we struggle every time we play at anfield. The doom and gloom mentality grows every time we play there. I’d love to see us win, but they will raise their game like always.
 
If there is anything this season has shown me, it would be at every moment when total commitment and focus is required, it is there in abundance and then some. The season so far tells our story and the results don’t lie. We are a different level to any team in this league, 15 points ahead of the nearest team, and 18 points ahead of Liverpool. This is not luck, but total football! The past has gone, it wasn’t ours! It belonged to the rags, the dippers, the arse, but the future could be ours!
We will go to canfield, and we will blow their fucking candles out, and there is nothing they can do to stop us!
We are no longer typical City, we are MANCHESTER CITY the best team in the land and all the world!
 
I know I am wrong for saying this on so many levels but I dislike the scousers even more than I dislike the fake mancs. It might stem from that hysteria prior to the Gerard slip where the cult had it morally confirmed that they were rightful justified champions with the correct breeding and history to take the mantle on.

absolutely!! i work with 2 scousers and all they have been talking about for the last week is how they are gonna do us over on the weekend as if its some kind of mega achievement and 3 points would take them to the top of the league!!
Theres no ambition from them, its just "i cant wait for us to beat u on sunday, we will show the world how to beat city, we would have beaten u if mane hadnt got sent off anyway" ... ..

They may well beat us but even if they do and united win we will still be 12pts clear ffs!

Our record there is hideous but we are a totally different animal this season but i still its our toughest game of the PL season so far, and i think the very least we will get is a draw.
I feel a 2-2 coming up. Hope its a win obv but a draw wouldnt be the end of the world
