City v Liverpool - Post Match Thread

[Dave Ewing's Back 'eader]

Apparently, it's the first time in 80 years that we stuck 5 past the candle wavers. @oakiecokie, @Dave Ewing's Back 'eader and @Vienna_70 were probably there!

Ten full years before my time, Jim! Dunno 'bout t'other two!

Ha ha they all fucked off at 80 minutes. They also nicked a ball can't help themselves.

As for Milner, he drew first blood.

Terrible thing to boo Jimmy Avarice, but seemingly the classiest thing football has ever seen to boo Raheem up and down the football stadia of the nation! YCMUDS!

does a look a step offsides but difficult one bc last man back seems to be the guy nearest mendy

Clearly offside, look at the lines across the pitch as guidance.

My biggest problem was not the red, but our manager sulking and basically giving up on the game at half-time. We should have sent Salah out to run at Otamendi and see if we could balance the numbers, or at least keep you honest. Instead, City knew any threat had gone and could do as they liked, which with your quality and class on the ball is a recipe for a pasting. Our only form of defence is attack, we don't know how to shut down a game and take a 2 or 3 nil. Nowhere near good enough from the Redmen. Thank God we have a game on Wednesday and don't have to stew all week!!!!

These apps on iPhone all stream live games, except the first, which is an ad-blocker. Live Wire needs a subscription to get the sky stuff and other stuff. The last two have adverts, but once you are past those, the games play uninterrupted.

Cheers. Will try.

Old style - Pass out to Clichy who stops, turns back and pass inside, ball goes to other side so we can do it again

This year - Out to Mendy, ball straight into the box!

The opposition are going to be scared before they even face us

The best thing about mendy's crosses are that they are to feet. We have not had a big centre forward for a few seasons now but we have continued to have an enormous amount of wasted high crosses into the box!

Yep and Mendy gets the cross in early that a big plus also

Strange, I can't seem to find any of these on the App Store. Do I need to jailbreak to get them, or are there certain search words I need to use?

I was bloody delighted not to see Salah emerge for the second half. He was giving the Otter a very hard time.
Either he was carrying an injury or Klopp dropped a bollock there.
As for the 10 who took the pitch in the second half I did not expect them to roll over so easily. Must be a bit worrying for you...

Fair post that, appreciate the realism and honesty. There is a way to play with 10 men and to be fair, you dont often see sides that have had one sent off get a shallacking very often these days. Liverpool were not professional yesterday and that came from the top down. Leadership is not about cobbing and being a drama queen in a tracksuit, berating officials who long since got bored of it. its about organising a group to do the best they can in a set of circumstances. I thought Klopp showed a weak side yesterday, he behaved like a bit of a bird
