How’s that goofy prick got on the pitch. He was sent off.

 

[jimharri]

Got what we deserved.

 

[Stelea]

Shambles Cancelo. Never the same on the right!

 

[Bluemoon115]

Why did we not have someone constantly running at 250 year old Milner?

We've had some hidings there before, but this feels worse. Liverpool were mediocre and beat us due to Pep over-fucking-complicating it again.

Deserved nothing today. One of those games, onto the next!

 

[King Jay]

They could’ve lost the last 20 games BUT against us they would still win. Pep masterclass.

 

[Chak19]

James Milner at right back and we never troubled him, says it all about this game.
Just sick of that shithole, it's always the same story.

 

[Grealish’s Shinpads]

We were poor but there’s absolutely no way that goal would’ve been chalked off at the other end

 

[MCFC1993]

Got brought down to their level.

We were absolutely robbed of a goal though.

I am putting this loss (our first of the season no less) firmly at the feet of Pep.

Say what you want about Joao’s mistake—and there is quite a lot to be said—but it should have never been 0-0 by that point in the first place.

The system was wrong, the tactics were wrong, and the sub (1 of 5) were wrong. Our lads generally didn’t play that well, to be sure, but I think a large part of that was down to the formation and tactics: Kev was wasted on the RW, Ilkay was unnecessary, if not actually a hinderance with his instructions, Phil seemingly being told to retain possession at all costs rather than test Milner.

Pep is a genius, and I wouldn’t swap him for any other manager in the world, but he got this one wrong.

Absolutely all on pep. Tried to set us up to stop their breaks yet somehow made us mire vulnerable to them whilst killing our attack.

take team selection away from him when we play these.
