Not buying into this mass negativity.Sorry and all that as my Dad says but even if i thought we were going to get a pasting I wouldn’t ever admit it.
First time in ages that I’m worried we will get done but we wont be and hark now hear 1-4 City.

We've gone to Clanfield at pretty much full strength, full of confidence and with high expectations over the last few years, and won the square root of fuck all.

Maybe, just maybe, going there with half a team, no confidence and low expectations might just be the key to the kingdom.

Up the fucking Blues.

Here we go..oh
City 115 in a row.

Got to go into with a positive attitude, it’s 11 v 11 and Forrest won here this season there is no reason to doubt that this team can turn it around, there has been lots of positives in every game we lost or drew of late maybe we get a bit of luck for a change here Of course we can win

Positives from the spurs game?

The fact it didn't end up 7 or 8 nil?

I love the positivity. I was looking at some of the absolute doom in the press, and on here, and thought I'd remind myself of that run when Liverpool lost a few in a row.

It was later in the season in 2020/21, and was much worse than our current form, and worse than I remembered. They lost 6 out of 7 in the league, and had a run of six home league defeats in a row. Yet once it finished, they ended the season taking 26 out of the last 30 points, including scoring 3 at the Emirates, and 4 at Old Trafford. All it took was a few injured defenders, and a lack of fans, and the team pretty much collapsed for a few months.

The following summer, they only bought Konate, who then spent most of the season injured. So, the same players who had gone on that abysmal run, won the FA Cup, the League Cup, reached the CL final, and finished one point off us in the league.

It might not happen tomorrow, but considering all our defenders have been injured, or playing while carrying injuries, there's no way this run justifies the 'end of an era' nonsense.

Reading the press you’d think we’ve only got 1 injury.

I'd love nothing more than celebrating a terrible 0v0 tomorrow

Would you not rather win?

 

[Gray]

Get it out of the way and pray we can sneak a win on Wednesday.

 

[citytill1die84]

Come on City

 

[urban genie]

A good example of stating the bleeding obvious

Liverpool 1 Manchester City 3

 

[phargrave]

Which would mean 11 points behind and out of the top 4 - No, nothing to worry about……
