Not sure we can list Ait Nouri and Rjeinders as our best players. Don’t think that really matters though as Stones and Rodri absolutely are. Peak stones and Rodri walk into any side. Rodri best in world. We just out played them yesterday in every aspect of the game and it was brilliant to watch.

I'm not sure I made myself clear. I meant that before the season started we ould have had them in our first 11 and not dreamed that the players who are playing there instead would be so integral.

The thing that is getting overlooked is that HE HAS DONE IT WITHOUT SEVERAL OF OUR BEST PLAYERS!!!!!

I would never have dreamed even a couple of months ago that a City team without Stones, Rodri, Reinders and Alt Nouri would outplay Liverpool like that.

That might be pushing it. Yaya is one of the most elite City players, up there with Merlin, Kun, Bell, KDB.

Got high hopes for Nico but he just needs to be allowed to develop in his own time.

At the moment I don't think he gets in the team anywhere else but LB. He is without doubt our best option there but non of yesterdays midfield will be dropped anytime soon to accommodate him.

Yeah, it's giving Pep some fantastic tactical options: both can do thw wing back thang but also can step inside to midfield and both are now defending like "real" full backs.

I assume both players have decide that being a starting FB for MCFC is a decent career option.

I try to avoid getting into the slate a player club but I cannot deny having doubts about Nunes as a signing and as anything more than a back-up option at FB but he looks like he is starting to think like a defender and if you tie that to his physical attributes, it is starting to look like a winning combination. I suspect we are also seeing the benefits of your manager showing trust a playing you regularly: some player need to play regulalry to get their best form and this may be true of Nunes.

I’d imagine both Matheus and Nico O have decided it’s better to be a starting full-back than a reserve midfielder.

Both are making more than à decent fist of their change of career direction.

Fair enough to proper LFC fans, if they admit they well beaten ?
But, read the invited comments on the Guardian report this morning.
The vast majority think the goal should have stood.
Some even say Big Erl's header was a lucky deflection !
LFC have the most one-eyed fans, who can seldom if ever give praise to their opponents.
City must really get on their nerves, as they really believe they will win the league every season...

Yeah, but we’re cheats.
