Didn't watch it, do they keep their inhalers pitch side?Watched a bit of the Liverpool game last night with there energy levels so high with klopp not going to play key player a in league cup game cup with the referees on there side with var on there side they are going to piss the league again.
So top four and any trophy for us this season will be a cracking season.
Honestly, it’s more amazing that people think he’ll be the same. He’s 32 and suffers lots of injuries. I expect Jesus to start more even when both are fit. Without the press we are nothing.It's truly amazing how Aguero is all of a sudden considered to be fading, is it because he's not scored while out injured?
Yes, that's it. So to commit their players and create the extra man we have to push further and further forwards, making us more and more likely to be hit on the break.It's not even our press which is the fundamental problem, even if the intensity of it isn't what is once was.
The problem is now the press from the other teams.
They have stopped doing it to us, allowing our backline to retain the ball and not create a spare man.
Rodgers admitted as much. Save their energy for the breakdown and hit hard and fast.
Stands to reason, our defence have been allowed to come out fifty yards from goal.
The fundamental reason also why Ederson is never in the game now, apart from picking the ball out of the net.
Our system won't change, but that's the nub of it.
Same with any decent big-hitting boxer, just be wary of their best shot and stay in the fight.

that type of performance/result has been coming for a while however - defensively we have been weak for a while and Wolves could/should have scored at least 3 possibly more. Its not just the defence but the midfield as well.
any team that has fast paced strikers and play ont he break always cause us trouble...Liverpool, Leicester, Wolves last season, Utd (they are shit but have the pace int he channels and upfront to break on us ) - we will see this mor and more from teams....Pep has to adapt and find a way to prevent it.
At presnt his desire and decisions to play our fullbacks so high looks a poor one - they expose us in the channels and they are offering nothing going forward - a bit more pragmatism wouldnt go a miss and find other ways to provide width and attack.
The press isnt working either - our forwards arent aggressive enough and our midfield doesnt press either besides KDB
We need to have a lot more energy and we just dont get it from the likes of Rodri, Gundogan, Mendy, Zinchenko and mahrez

Keep your eyes on me.
Insofar as City need "legitimising", I suspect that the 17/18 and 18/19 seasons, where we were the greatest side British football has ever seen, "legitimised" the club. A 34 year old Messi, if anything, smacks to me of trying to associate ourselves with someone else's greatness.
