Let's face it, we never turn up against them. Our best players hide and their best players flourish.

They'll be on fire from the off. Wirtz will find his legs and prove he was worth the transfer fee and probably show he was actually a bit of a steal for the £100m+. Issac on his day would walk into the Real Madrid starting 11 in front of Mbappe and has the natural ability to be one of the best the PL has seen. VVD is the best defender the league has ever seen and probably on a par with Baresi at his height - and has still to be beaten in a 1:1 with any forward.

Liverpool are a juggernaut and we'll do well to go toe to toe with them.

Take 1-1 now and move onto easier games.



I'm off to John Lewis now.......

I’d stop there if I were you…..
 
No doubt we’ll get all the empty seats/where were you crap as usual. Most LFC fans won’t want to admit this but back in the 80s 2nd tier City’s average crowd was only a couple of thousand less than league champions Liverpool (both had empty seats at home). Follow the link:

Second Tier Crowd to Rival Leaders Liverpool?

Here’s another attendance flashback piece. This is from February 1984 when Second Division Manchester City were reported as only being a few thousand behind League leaders Liverpool. The arti…

Wirtz improving and needing a goal, Isak needs a statement performance and win.
We tend to shit the bed against them.

Do we tend to shit the bed against Liverpool?

Under Pep our Etihad results against them are:

16/17: 1-1
17/18: 5-0
18/19: 2-1
19/20: 4-0
20/21: 1-1
21/22: 2-2
22/23: 3-2 (League Cup)
22/23: 4-1
23/24: 1-1
24/25: 0-2

P10 W5 D4 L1. Hardly a bad record considering how good they are. Last season they played us as we were slightly improving but they still caught us in the middle of a funk. We're out of that now, we're stronger and they're currently weaker than they were when we played them last.

I'm not saying I'm relaxed about tomorrow. I definitely think we'll have to be on our game to win. But we have a system that can really hurt them now and I hope we can hit them in the same way we hit United and Bournemouth - suddenly and hard, catching them on a fast transition.

Ive spent this morning poring over data, x.G stats and tactical analyses. My conclusion is….
Let’s just smash the scouse cunts (but any win will do).

I going 4-1 for the blue boys.

I hope you’re right mate as regards the scoreline, i can also see us losing this game as well which wouldn’t surprise me, for me we have too many soft players in this squad that needs addressing.
 
Oh no, my stomachs in bits after watching Sky’s preview for Sunderland Arsenal.
9 points clear!
This is giving me flashbacks of last year being behind Liverpool so early.
We need to win tomorrow and despeerately. We need to win so much, i reckon if we smash those scouse cunts, Arsenal start getting nervy, this is as must win as it gets. CMON PEP LET’s FUCKING DO THIS, FUCKING COME ON CITY

Yeah 100%, we never really lose to them at home, it’s usually a draw and i can see it being 1-1 tomorrow.
 
I want Cherki to start as he has that bit of brilliance in him that can make something out of nothing and create goals for himself or for Foden or Haaland. And John Stones at the back, when fit still one of the best defenders in England. Can't see anything but a good win for City here. Salah might get his usual penalty kick but apart from that I will go with what my dad used to say, anytime City went a goal up he'd mutter "Give them nowt, City." and I'd say "they can't hear that" at which he'd yell it loud and people would nod and laugh. So, yes, "GIVE THEM NOWT, CITY" and send them back to the wrong end of the East Lancs, back to Bootle and Fazackerly with only a good hiding.
