I thought Everton stayed the right side of the physicality line most of the game, bar maybe mid second half and that was mainly Tarkowski. I agree the league in general is very physical now, Haaland for e.g. spends most of his games in a headlock but is usually the one who gets penalised. And as you touched on some dangerous stuff going on most weeks from other teams but getting let go.A few tasty tackles went in, a few heads got lost, Thuggery though? not sure about that?
We are clearly not on the same level class wise as City. We cannot go head to head as we would just get wiped out. We have to try and defend for our lives and hope we can get something. We had a short spell were we scored and looked good. We got brushed aside second half and the players heads went. I see it in the league every week, I see it from most teams. I see certain teams get away with all kinds, even commentators do not mention what they do. Your guys gave a couple of tackles out themselves, and yes we gave out more.
I hope you go on and win the league, and I mean that. And not because it means Liverpool will not win it, because I like City, I like a lot of people on here.
But Thugs? Come on, bit harsh.
Fair assessment from you there, mot easy after watching our favourites.
