Looking forward to KDB coming back.
LolI feel for Mahrez, I think he’s trying so hard to fit into this team and he thought the pen was a way to contribute. He shouldn’t be taking them though with his record.
I don’t believe for a minute that Pep made that decision, he’s just protecting him.
A draw is fine though, we won the league after losing there so it’s a point gained and 2 lost for the dippers...
You said that like Sterling has been wank since the start of the season.He has arguably been our best player up to now so I think we can allow him one match when he wasn't quite up to scratch though he was far from being wank.To be fair I would have taken the draw before the game,.but they were shit today and there for the taking, we had the chance to gain 3 points and again shit it, and again sterling was wank
Positives:
Laporte and Stones magnificent. Walker great too.
No loss at Anfield for a change.
Controlled most of the match and nulliifed them after their rabid opening.
Top of the league without KDB and he's back very soon.
Negatives:
Should have won, they were there for the taking in the last 20 mins.
Sterling again in his shell.
Mahrez pt.1: idiot penalty. I can excuse a penalty miss but taking it off another player youve got to score it.
Mahrez pt.2: I know its early days but I dont like his greediness. Again, shooting from impossible angles today on 3 occasions. Even David threw his arms up in frustration the 3rd time it happened. Hope Pep sorts this asap.
Sane should have started. No ifs or buts, im bewildered by that decision. Brought on way too late too.
Hahahahaha the Brazilians are renowned for their banana shots but fuck me that was brutal was like something you see from one of us plucked out and stuck on the pitch..Good point about his greediness. Mind you, what about that ‘shot’ from Fernandinho? Lol
Nope am saying it as at anfield,.lots of fans asked the question about sterling starting there, and again I thought he was very poor there, looked shit scared to take a man on, and looked to get rid of the ball as soon as he got itYou said that like Sterling has been wank since the start of the season.He has arguably been our best player up to now so I think we can allow him one match when he wasn't quite up to scratch though he was far from being wank.
Give us the title now by far above any team in this league great performance today.
Got to agree. We are nowhere near top gear yet and the best midfielder in the league is back very soon
Probably been posted but it does indeed look like Pep called it,
Jesus also missed his last two, Bernardo or Fernandinho buries it IMO but oh well. Performance was much better than it has been in years, Sane on a bit earlier and we score from open play never mind the pen.
Fernandinhio is a god so we let him off :)Good point about his greediness. Mind you, what about that ‘shot’ from Fernandinho? Lol
Agreed. It was Mendy who “volunteered” Mahrez for the job. To be fair I don’t think Mahrez himself was that keen.I'm not having it for one second Pep told Mahrez to take that. "In front of the media I will protect you to the death, but here I'll tell you the truth". He was absolutely livid, he even did that same smile from his "happy new year" interview, where he shows his top teeth, albeit a lot quicker (I'm pretty good at reading body language). Make no doubt, he is f**king fuming and Mahrez is going to know about it.
But not with peak years Yaya.We’d have been 4 down though!!
