Liverpool v City - post match thread

[kalouk]

People are ranting about Pellegrini but for me it's the players who worry me more. Tonight was so bad that I don't think he should be the focus of the anger as it's a side issue, he's going anyway. I have never seen our players so appallingly bad even the basics were beyond them. Nobody really disagreed with the team selection and most felt it was strong enough to win but from the first minute we were awful. I understand people saying about game management etc I wouldn't have taken Fernandinho off. Please believe me that this isn't a defence of Pellegrini just a genuine concern about the players, nobody can make players of the quality of Aguero, Silva etc play as badly as tonight.

whats mp said?

Who cares?

The 1st goal encapsulated the whole night. Needless loss of the ball, a few simple unpressurised passes, Lallana trots forward whilst 4 City players trot even slower whilst expecting the defence to deal with it and a crap trickling shot beats Hart who was flat-footed and daydreaming.

Fucking woeful. Being outplayed is acceptable, being outworked is not.

 

[The slaughtered lamb]

It's cunting season.

+1

 

[bluwes]

I was going to go on Saturday I won't waste my money to watch them losers

Ok see ya, don't need ya.

 

[bert38]

I see the abuse of Pellegrini is back.

 

[cityboy5]

We never win there anyway what did everyone expect

 

[Atypical]

Bobbins, concede a poor goal and capitulate. Same story all season.

Ironic that we had just got a foothold in the game. Shit keeping by Hart I might add.

Leaving only one midfielder left me dumbfounded.

Pellegrini has taken us backwards he is not tactically good at all. We have also bought poor players.

Hopefully Pep is picking the players not 'cheeky'

Can we simulate rest of season we are awful to watch.

Roll on summer.

 

[mancity1]

Didnt expect anything. Got nothing.

Only plus was everyone else being shit, but hard to see us showing the character to put a run together.

It's too often we are done and dusted from the outset.

Even the lime green was missing today so what hope did we have (LOL).

Seriously though this squad has run its race and today it was there for all too see.

I doubt we can even limp to a top 6 finish unless we bring in a few youngsters and relieve MP of match day duties.

What is it now 3 draws and 8 defeats against the current top 8 and a manager who says that's not important and acceptable.

Were are not in free fall but poor planning under FFP and keeping MP for another season will likely cost us Champions League Football next season.

 

[bluemoon98]

Fuck off pellegrini no excuse at all that.

'Players haven't recovered' we played the exact same team 3 days ago and he says he was surprised they put pressure on!!! Fuck off

 

[Peter Doherty]

Bad from all of them and bizarre subs,i'm getting numb now

Still haven't figured out what the subs were all about. But instead of having one isolated striker we suddenly had three. Bizarre.

 

[George Hannah]

Let's pretend we were denied three nailed on pens and were beaten by a last minute off side goal scored by somebody who should have been red-carded after 10 minutes.

 

[goalmole]

Shocking performance, maybe tired legs after the 2 big games - still as mad as it sounds think we'll sneak it. Spuds & Leicester novices at the back end of a season, Arsenal imploding. Results mostly went favourably for us this week. Win game in hand 7 behind Leicester FFS

It isn't so much the result but the manner of it that is the most concerning.

 

[manimanc]

I wish these closet rags would post after we win a game. This thread is full of the cunts. I shall comb through this thread and expose the gobby twats. See y'all later.

You're not a season ticket holder then?

 

[Robinho's Subbuteo]

Formation at the end was 4 2 4 with a midfield 2 of Silva and Fernando. Just lol.

 

[dronefromsector7G]

Silva has been immense for us and will go down as one of our best players, but tonight he was just having the ball took off him time and again. Not the only one sadly. This team is done and I hope Pep rips it right up and puts a group of battling players. Some of the play was sub-pub team not for the first time. Fucking shameful from the players and that inept manager of ours.

 

[flb]

Hahaha great supporter

It's understandable to a degree though fella, 3 points out of 33 against the top eight teams, nothing fucking short of a disgrace.

To expect fans to pay £40 to watch that shit will put a lot off going, it doesn't make him any less of a fan for saying fuck it I'm not going.

Having a shit was more exciting than watching City tonight.

 

[bondsman]

As badly as us? A dominant performance in Europe - away - followed by a cup win?
What would you have preferred, to lose the final just to be three points ahead of United?
Fuck. That.

Dominant performance against shite who haven't played for months. I'd rather finish top four than make the quarter finals of champions league or win the fucking calling cup on pens. Look at our form mate. 3 points from 33 against top 8 teams. Look who we have got left to play and then get real if you think we are guaranteed top four.
