Why don’t you stop wasting your time watching the matches and just look at the results, if that is all that matters to you?
 
Well I don’t think that my ticker will last the season based on the last 2 league games! I trust Pep implicitly, but I just don’t understand why we are persisting with the inverted full backs. It seems to be causing more problems particularly for Walker. It is mixed opinion on Mahrez on here, but I thought he was ineffective. He was reluctant to take their defenders on and het into the penalty area. Fortunately, Bernardo showed him how to do it. Gundogan was fantastic when he came on and for me was our game changer. Great to see Haaland get his first hat trick and I am sure that will be his first of many. Let’s keep the faith and go again against Forest on Wednesday.
 
Few thoughts…
- First half was a shambles, less said the better but I beg do not play Walker as an inverted full back. His ability on the ball is his biggest weakness so why make him integral to making the team tick.
- Second half miles better.
- Bernardo is irreplaceable.
- If Haaland stays injury free he’ll break all scoring records in a PL season

It shows who is more clinical and who is profligate. It’s used by scouts as well as statisticians of the game.

It’s fairly new, so obviously not necessary for those who‘ve watched the vast majority of football without it.

Assists weren't a thing until fantasy football took off.

Distance run, tackles made etc too.

Everybody uses stats to a certain degree.
 
What's bothering me is how disrespectful the Scousers were scoring Nine against Bournemouth. Hopefully the press will vilify them as they justifiably did us when we behaved so badly towards Burton. I'm ashamed that a team could treat fellow professionals so appallingly

You’re just old mate. It’ll come to me too.

I’ve never played a game of FIFA.

It’s a wonder you weren’t headhunted as a football scout.

City come back from 2 down, haaland scores a hat trick and your mind is in the scousers.

Have some dignity

I know what point you’re trying to make but it’s a league game which is totally different. Goal difference could mean finishing 2nd instead of 3rd

Scored 4, come back from 2 down. Haaland hat trick. Yet there's still the usual moaning cnuts on here. Strange place is Bluemoon. Serious question, were any of you even alive when we were shit?

Different expectations now, but I know where you are coming from. We have become very spoilt as a fan base and expect to win every game. This club has raised the standard of the premier league by way of the fantastic football we have produced for years.
