If you had a magic wand, and could make that happen, given how club defining that unique record is for City, would you?

I’m not sure I would want to share, as hilarious as it would certainly be.

the season after next or possibly after that. Wouldn't take our record and the pain is prolonged.

Deal!

Got a bit of cheek to run the rule over what is a sackable offence.

Brilliant!

Lol.

Stephen Warnock. What a wanker.

He really is.

Using Jota as an excuse. That's disgusting.

It's genuinely embarrassing hearing this on such a regular basis, isn't it?

My boss died last year, and guess what?
I haven't downed tools

MVF died in the summer, while playing for Cameroon.

True I meant between seasons

That Curtis Jones interview is damning. Slot has lost that Liverpool dressing room.

He doesn't seem to know what's up - their Frank Clark moment by proxy...

Can he claim on the insurance?

 

[JamesMCFC]

Anyone reckon he gets sacked if they get beat weekend? I need to check but I am sure they are on a worse form than we were this time last year.

 

[KentBlue]

Someone ought to photoshop a Jap's eye on top of Slot's shiny bonce - that would suit him.

I shall get in early....

Next year will be our year!

 

[Stoned Rose]

And Pep. You are not saying the manager doesn't matter, are you?

Pep won 100 pts with Delph at LB and Otamendi as our main CB.

The manager has a part in it. But, if you have the best players, you have more of a chance of success than the others do.

Look at things over the last couple of seasons. We haven’t got the best players and therefore as great as Pep might be, he hasn’t been able to overcome that.

To form though

And they've lost the matches.

City had 6 defeats in 8 league games between the 2nd November and the 21st December. In that time we also lost 2 CL games and drew 1.

Liverpool have lost 6 in 7 Premier League games since the 27 September. They have lost 2 and won 2 CL games, and lost 1 League Cup in that time.

The records are very similar. The causes are similar. City lost Rodri and Stones to injury and KDB, Gundogan and Walker were at the end of their careers. The difference was that in City's case those players were at the end of their contracts and they were not renewed whereas Liverpool renewed Van Dijk and Salah's contracts.

City got out of the tail spin by changing tactics. Pep introduced O'Reilly and Nunes at right back and took 1/2 wingers out which made City defensively stronger (I haven't checked when O'Reilly and Nunes came into the side at full back but by the end of the season they were regulars). CL elimination also helped City in the Premier League as we were able to recover between Premier League matches. We also brought in Khusanov and Marmoush in January and that made City a little stronger.
