1-1?
Shit i thought we'd lost

Dont be a dick :)

other teams dont lose because ttheir team isnt set up in a way that absolutely magnifies one of liverpools biggest threats and highlight hugely their own weakness...

Pep wants his defenders to be perfect 1vs1...however against the likes of Salah and various others that is impossible 100% of the time....and it only takes on mistake to win/lose you a game..

Scousers defend deep and hit on the break...they also outfight us and thats something else we constantly lack despite teh technical brilliance of our players...

They make us pass it around lots in midfield by pressing in the middle thrid...they dont press in the final third as that spreads the game out too much but in the middle third where the game is then more compact if it breaks down the space is in behind.........we pass pass pass and liverpool just wait for the mistake caused by their pressing which invariably arrives.....today it happened from the first minute.

If everyone ran and through themselves around like Bernardo Silva then it wouldnt be a problem but the likes of Cancello, Ake,Mahrez (in the past), Gundogan (in the past) and KDB from time to time, struggle when teams get in their faces. ....And when i say like bernardo im not just talking about the distance he covers but the way he goes into tackles, the tenacity he shows..the fight he shows.....those that Ive mentioned dont show that fight...they are far too nice

Other teams will out battle liverpool.....
Liverpool also raise their game against us every time....we dont

Great post.

We needed a Fernandinho today, we're too nice. Rough the fuckers up !

 

[Heath Park]

We were awful.
We deserved nothing.

Why are they wankers? If foden can't block that out he is the wanker

Get fucked they are wankers

Exactly,not catching us mate,but can’t seem to get a win there regularly,but Cancelo…….ah well fuck it there’s a storm on emmerdale coming on

Crazy and over reaction by some fans ? Pep and city get done over every time at Liverpool

Shut up Micah, it was a foul. He wasn’t already going down at all.

 

[Mariosfireworks]

Matey give over ? Pep and city got done over by VAR today, plus it's not like we win at Anfield all the time but end up champions

We didn't get done over by VAR we got done over because we didn't play well, and have a manager who is to stubborn to change things

Excellent result...for the product.

As soon as we plebs learn to respect the primacy of the product, things will be much easier.
