Old style football stadiums retain the noise and direct it at the pitch better. Their fans can be good when they're up for it (and as someone else has pointed out - first home of the season, against the champions, they're gonna be) but this also can't be underestimated as a factor.
Put a random 35,000 of Arsenal's fans inside Upton Park and the atmosphere would be better than at the Emirates, for example.

We were the ones who were quiet as a library at times. But there were times when neither set of fans were making any noise and I thought I was actually in a cemetery!! After they scored their second I was trying to get 'we're Man City we fight to the end' going but it was impossible.
Sorry but we were absolutely NOT the 12th man yesterday.
Onwards and upwards with Manchester City.

You don't sit at away matches!! (Sorry, couldn't resist that :-)) I was in 124 row 10 and normally sound will travel down toward those at the front there was much less yesterday than almost any away match recently. Sorry.
city were bang on form first half where i was stood, never shut up, did.nt here a peep out of liverpool until they scored when they started 1 of only 3 chants i heard all game, a bit subdued second half but a great atmosphere all the same, toure song brilliant, we never win at home brilliant etc etc, ps when i asked a liverpool fan outside they food village if tevez's goal was a back pass( as i missed it talking to my son) his reply was " i'm austrian"

I was there, the loudest noise from their fans was the cameras clicking whenever there was a corner.

We were right at the Main Stand end of the Anfield Road Stand and the number of tourists/day-trippers we could see was phenomenal. Barely a scouse accent to be heard in there I suspect.
Completely agree except I thought they were loud in protesting refereeing decisions. Also I had to laugh when the Main Stand went 'shhhh' as in laughing at how quiet it was, possibly without realising they outnumbered us about 14:1.
