We’ve slated their support last night and after previous home matches. It’s only the media the perpetuates the Anfield atmosphere myth. Most fans from other clubs also know it’s a myth. But wait until City go Anfield, it will be a cauldron of noise, especially if Liverpool score first. Klopp will tell the Liverpool fans to get behind the team, just like he did for the Arsenal match.

Tbh even though I always stay until the end I can‘t fault anyone who left early against Sheff Utd and a few other games, once we got to 2-0 we just started fucking about and all our corners finished being eventually passed back to Ederson as in keep possession was the only game. On Saturday I was very bored with it and cold and would have probably left early if I don’t car share. The stadium being half empty when we have just battered Utd or Liverpool is inexcusable but on other occasions I think the style of play hasnt helped.Let’s get one thing straight, I have absolutely no love for Liverpool fans. I dislike them like the vast majority of City fans do, especially after the coach attack, the hacking, the cowardly plastic pot filled coin attack on a City fan, and their general antics against City, Pep, our players, and our fans.
But.
Why because he’s telling the truth? That isn’t bigging the Scousers up. The fact is Liverpool fans do stay until the end of the match to support and to applaud the team, as a rule. Some do leave early. You don’t ever see Klopp going to a half empty KOP clapping them and doing his annoying fist pumping in-front of them.(I’m not asking or expecting Pep to do that). As others have stated, if our support had stayed until full time and supported the team instead of leaving early and staying quiet, maybe the recent draws at home would have turned into wins?

Or “get down to the ground early and show them what we are all about” aka come and smash their coach up, don’t worry, the old bill will never come after you even if they do collect hundreds of hours of footage.We’ve slated their support last night, and on previous home matches.

Pep wouldn’t be asking for extra vocalYou can speculate that it has been a factor but there’s no way on earth you can conclude that it has “clearly” been a factor in dropping points.
support if he didn’t think it was a factor. That’s good enough for me.

If people want to leave early that’s up to them. Everyone has a choice.
I agree with your observation. Whether we like it or not, if it frustrates us or not, once City are in a winning position they tend to play the game out, keeping the ball, passing it side ways, backwards, etc, which isn’t the most exciting football to watch. Unfortunately against Spurs, and notably against Palace (arrrgh!), that has cost us 2 wins. But to remain unbeaten in 2023 at home is a very special achievement, so credit to Pep and the player for doing that. :-)

He needs to go into the Tunnel Club before kick off to have a word. :-)

Absolutely nonsenseYep I’m not ducking now. Watched their game tonight. All stayed to the very end even after result was never in doubt. Klopp over to the kop doing his think and kop respond in their thousands to huge cheers. We have to do this too. It’s all small wins and Liverpool are going to the wire again with us. Our fan base home support really need to sort ourselves out. It’s embarrassing when we come off the field taking the plaudits. Worth some points when you back your team. Another poster reckons we could have got results against points dropped this season and won those games if the fans had backed this amazing team. I totally agree. Time we backed them properly at home. Liverpool fans have shown us how to do it.
