Liverpool (h) - CL QF post match thread

[jrb]

Bellamy on the debate saying about its down to the dippers history!
What a load of bollox

Over my head now. After Weeks and Weeks of the same mantra, you get immune to it.

It's simple. Liverpool where better and more clinical in front of goal over the 2 games.

Struggling to sleep, keep wondering what would have happened had Kevin released Jesus through on goal. Normally Kev never fucks up in them situations and always plays an inch perfect pass :(

Otamendi probably would have sprinted upfield, tackled him and played an inch perfect through ball for the dips to bear down on our goal.

Just home, exhausted but proud as fcuk to have been there tonight.

Tremendous performance in the first half, unbelievable quality of football and desire. Add in the atmosphere and I’m not sure I’ve seen a better half of football in my life. Can’t believe Sane’s goal was yet another error. Between that and the post how different tonight could have panned out.....

We will be back, bigger, stronger, tougher and better next season.

No Kompany at the back. Too much tinkering cost us this game. Jesus isn't good enough, flip to PSG for 50 million.

Nope. The set up worked great in the first half, we played through their press time after time. We lost because the mentality got destroyed of the disallowed Sane goal combined with Peps sending off, and fatigue in the 2nd half.

 

[kanovic]

What’s worse then losing is the the Liverpool supporters believe they are world beaters now. Yet look at their epl run this year....

 

[kanovic]

United and Liverpool have some of the most delusional fans in the world.. of and ffs don’t forget about their history if you haven’t heard it a million times already.

Bullshit, don't ever forget the influence the referee and linesman have played in all three games against the bin dippers and the scum this past week. Without there assistance there is no way we would be out of the Chumps League and we would be champions already.

Sick of fellow City fans burying their heads up their asses and denying the crucial role of the officials in our recent cock ups.

3rd loss to Liverpool this season. If Liverpool and United needed any confidence on a title challenge next season. they only need to look at this week.

I wasn't talking about United.

United should have been dead and buried before the Ashley Young incident. We've only got ourselves to blame.

As for the CL against Liverpool, yes, you have a valid point. 3 refereeing decisions went against us, that could have altered the tie in our favour.(?)

My head isn't in the sand, it's on the chopping block. You can't post right from wrong on nights like this on BM.

Best to stay away TBH.

Decisions change games. The decision to not award Sané’s goal COMPLETELY changed the outcome of the game. Impossible to state otherwise.

We could have also got a soft penalty for any of Milner’s handball on the on target shot, the push in Sterlings back as he went up for the ball, and Robertson’s arms around him when he got past him (tight in front of the 4th, 5th or 6th official!).

If 1 refs and two linesmen can’t do it all, let’s add another lino on each touchline by the goal, because if 3 are bad, 5 must be better, right?!

Very disappointed in the clearly bad call on the “goal,” but when you add that to Bernardo hitting the post the minute prior, it just looked like another of those nights! To add insult to injury, Salah picks up some slop, scores the killer goal, and all the talking heads suck him off on national TV for a change!

So, is anyone “up” for a resurgent Spurs at Wembley in a few days????

Fuck me! At this rate, we will need until Huddersfield for the coronation...if we are lucky! Played some ridiculously good football for almost 3 hrs of the last 3 games and been stitched up by the two teams we hate the most!

Hate to say it, but it’s starting to resemble “Typical City” at the moment....

Liverpool deserved it, doesnt matter how badly the ref fucked up, we still conceded 5 over two legs. Our defense has looked something similar to last season where the opposition has a blinder for 15-20 mins and we get completely fucked, they score at every chance and we lose. We had 20 shots, 3 on target whereas pool had 8 shots 3 on target.
Need to go for a target man in summer, we have to. Very physically similar players up front, need someone to score from a silva kdb sane cross. United beat pool and we have hardly troubled pool.
We looked mentally knocked out after that equaliser today.

Nothing to add to any of that. Typical City.

City fans do not let just the possession and passing stats blind you from the fact that we have looked poor in last three games. We got well and truly beaten, also these were the games where we gave opposition a chance and they did not hesitate to take them. We can go back to multiple PL games this season where the opposition quality failed to punish us, not in the last three games. Do not let Pep bias make you blind. Do not start acting and talking like rags.
Pep too is fallible, he has made some glaring mistakes in CL, lets not just blame the players.

So the terrible refereeing decisions, the glaring misses by our players and the defensive errors gifting Liverpool goals in both legs are all Pep's fault. I do think playing Gundogan in the first leg was a mistake but what are these other glaring mistakes you mention.

Only.thing I think I could say is the refusal to drop otter, who since the international break has been very poor and cost us in the last 3 games, even at everton he was not at his best.

Stones makes an error and he's out, danilo the same, otter, who tbf has been undroppable most of the season needed to be rested imo as he looks slightly jaded.

But in the main in the last 3 games we have had an offside goal against us, 3 denied us unfairly and 3-4 clear pens also denied us.

All those decisions have had major impacts on the results.

It's ridiculous that after 10 months of fantastic football some want to moan because of a shitty week, which is the nature of the game sometimes

Hope Pool draw Real Madrid and the match gets a Normal refree so that Real Madrid can take these guys apart

Agree with points made and your last paragraph in particular.
