Lyon (H) - Post Match Thread

[Franknorgrovesnephew]

It was a bit shit, but at least it was in the CL with plenty of opportunities to put right. Plus who really gives a shite about the CL anyway

I’d have been really pissed off if we dropped PL points like this.

The sign were there against wolves tbh, good sides that are good enough to keep the ball coupled with pace and power are like kryptonite to us. We have to learn from these games

Exactly .

 

[City Raider]

So you were in the stadium too

I think we all get the point you’ve made about 100 times.

 

[Barcon]

Making a fool of himself but he's not alone.

 

[northwichblue]

It’s a weird feeling isn’t it.
It’s supposed to be the biggest club competition in the World, yet when we lose in it I really couldn’t give a flying fuck!
Yet when we lose a league game I’m fucked off for days & days.

This, same here.

Highlight of our night was near the end my Nephew needed a City corner and a City booking for his requestabet to come in, we cheered when Aguero was booked and they gave us the corner

 

[Thomas Hearns]

Feels like we've been stuck in first gear for most of the games so far this season to me. Might just focus their minds, that game. Think what they put into last season and the world cup has left them deflated.

I agree we seem to be stuck in first gear but I think that’s largely down to missing KDB and the dynamism he provides in central midfield. For all the great qualities of silva silva gundo and dinho none of them have any real energy about them

 

[sh249]

your slating Laporte really haha clueless

Hardly slating him, is it?

Dinho has far too many turnovers tonight. Hopefully that improves, because I’m not sure gundo would be a good option at cdm

 

[marco]

I’m not saying I don’t want us to win, because I do, but I really don’t feel the pain that a league defeat brings.

not an embarrassing comment at all mate,,some of us truly don't like the CL me for one i'd sooner have 3 points at Cardiff than 3 tonight given the choice,so chuck your previous reply on the tip

So maths isn't your strong point never mind

 

[Burtonblue]

Every good team will have a poor game at some stage
Let’s hope that was it and move on
The damage is repairable on this occasion and it will serve as a wake up call
Onwards and upwards

 

[Franknorgrovesnephew]

Hardly slating him, is it?

whatever

 

[levets]

Wake up call Pep.
Set pieces - we're clueless
Long ball over top - we're vunerable every time
Can anyone tackle - no

Great tackle from Stones to set up our goal.

 

[oddfellows]

Making a fool of himself but he's not alone.

Takes one to know one so they say

 

[argyle]

The usual stuttering season after a title win it seems! Were we just too good last season and now can’t match it? Also why does pep always try to play gundogan in these type of games and fuck the system around!?

I fear that just like the last 2 times we won the league the club has gone and done it again and been complacent and not strengthened the team when they should have.

Trying to haggle over £5m and then not having a Plan B for Jorginho was ridiculous.

 

[oddfellows]

Great tackle from Stones to set up our goal.

I must have blinked

 

[argyle]

That’s it! Sign Fekir and Ndombele

They're both better than Gundogan.

 

[Jacob Smith]

That was dreadful tonight, hopefully that’ll give the players the kick up the backside and we can start the season properly on Saturday

 

[Boney]

Foden should have played instead of gundogan.
In fact disappointing players for me this season gundogan, mahrez and jesus. I hope they get better.

 

[robbieh]

And that in a nutshell is probably why we won't win this competition. If the fans don't give a fuck why the hell should the players

And that's not a criticism just the reality.

Liverpool do care about the competition and perform better in it than they do in the league.

The only thing is that Mansour wants to win it.
