Oh, and apparently, again as my Liverpool mate rants, it's Campionis not Championis.
They haven't sung it for 30 years!
Sign-on, Sign-on and Steve Gerrard songs, apparently it's jealousy why we sing about them, whether we play them or not!
I think it’s over the top to say it’s the dumbest decision Pep’s ever made, but it was definitely a mistake. And ended up killing the confidence of two players. At least when it comes to the Champions League knockouts, Mahrez wont be anywhere near the pens.
He's wrong mate its " Campeones " which translated means "Champions" in Spanish. "Championes" which almost everyone sings is actually a Spanish Garlic mushroom when translated back to English.
And overrule Pep's instructions relayed from the bench by Mendy, can't see that happening tbh.I think either Fernandinho or Silva should have stepped up as senior players and taken control.
I was thinking the same but as a previous poster suggested, what if the keeper saves it and initiated a quick counter attack? Eddy would be legging it back to goal. That may cloud his thoughts when taking penalties, that said keepers have been designated pen takers before, Rene “the Scorpion kick” Higuita was one, proper maverick though.I'd have given it the Ederson before Mahrez
Plus Sergio, Silva, Fernandinho get a rest and KDB more time to get fit.I think it was a really good performance overall, and it felt like a significant step forward for this team. We overcame our mental hurdle at Anfield and effectively nullified a very good attacking side. We were the better side. Guardiola got his tactics spot on, and we very nearly took all three points. Anyone can miss a penalty though, it's part of the game.
Plenty of positives in the performances of Laporte, Stones, Bernardo and Fernandinho. We've now played arguably our toughest game of the season, and are top of the league with our best player to return. Can't wait for the international break to be out of the way.
Ok try this. You play your best 11 v a rival fucking team.Only issue with that Bill is the players burn out, get knackered and get injured. Liverpool do it and you saw a team on its arse yesterday.
It’s also up for debate as to what is our best 11 and let’s have it right here, rotation has served us very well this last 12-18 months ;-)
Top postI can't believe the amount of flak Mahrez is getting. I honestly think he played quite well. The game was very tense and both sides were afraid to make mistakes. Mahrez is our only player who had shots on target!!! Yes he missed the Penalty but it could have happened to Jesus or anyone else. Mahrez will come good but we need to have his back. Support him now cause I am sure he feels terrible for the miss! It's so easy for some on here to just start saying things like Mahrez needs to be dropped, Mahrez was a bad signing!! WTF!!!
He will come good and become a very important player for us and many of you here will eat their words!
Overall the game was tight and I am very happy with the draw. In all honestly it was going to be harsh for any side to win it over one goal cause Even Liverpool did not have a single decent shot on target which means our defence was excellent!! Sterling and Mahrez tried everything but the game was very tight! So for all those who are saying 2 points dropped, I would say 1 point gained at the KOP!!!
And lay off Mahrez and start supporting your players in the good times and the bad times. It was actually Pep who told Mahrez to take it so Pep made the decision.

Have you ever heard so much bollocks.
We're talking about the champions elect here but they are complaining about games already.
Somehow I don't think they have the desire and drive to win trophies.
I hope sky and the rest of the Scouse cock sucking media realise this.

Perhaps we didn't want them pushing on yesterdayI still don't like the Sterling + Mahrez combination. We just lose all of our width, especially against a decent team where Mendy and Walker can't push on too much.
Edited for accuracy.They sang it in february, march and april 2014.
Fair comment!Scholes gives him a run for his money
What did Mendy do so wrong yesterday?- gen questionAbsolutely gutted!! :-( mahrez has really settled into our style yet has he? Also what the fuck has happened to Mendy?! £52m for him? Yet to be convinced besides his crosses.
Gave the ball away several times but overall he was disciplined and marshalled Salah pretty well.What did Mendy do so wrong yesterday?- gen question
