Liverpool (H) - Carabao Cup 4th Round - Post-Match Thread

Well done fans in the ground yesterday. Liverpool literally have one song which is repeating 'Liverpool' over and over again. I mean it's only one word but it has three syllables so it's a little tricky for them.
Highlights for me from us:
'feed the scousers, do they know it's Christmas time at all'
and once Colgate decided to hammer down our players...

'always the victim, it's never your fault'

Now awaiting the complaints from Liverpool about the chanting...
 
What a fantastic game of football that was. A brilliant advert for English football and just what we needed after a brilliant World Cup. It had goals, tasty tackles, players squaring up and some sublime skill. The goal from Mahrez was sensational and KdB creates chances from anywhere on the pitch. We also had some panto villains (Nunaz and Fabinho) to complete the festivities!

The MOTM was KdB by a country mile, he was sensational. I'm glad there was no hangover from missing out with Belgium and he looked worlds apart from the player that Martinez mismanaged. I also thought Lewis and Ake did well in defence as well. Other than Foden, I think Lewis has the best chance of 'making it' with us. For his age, he looks very good and doesn't look out of place in our team. If Walker is out, I'd rather play Lewis than have Stones at right back etc and shuffle the defence around.

I love Ederson, but Ortega looks a class act doesn't he? Unflappable and although he didn't have much to do last night, we've seen him pull off great saves before. If Ederson isn't concentrating at any point this season, he'll be on the bench. Again, the club have found another great buy.

The only downside was how many chances Nunez fluffed and the ease of their 2nd goal. If Salah had had the chances Nunez had, we would've lost that game. He had 3 fairly straightforward 1 on 1s and should've had at least 1 in my opinion, but it was simple stuff really. Also their 2nd was just a knock and run over the top, nothing complicated and nothing clever but we fall for it every...single..time.

Anyway, great game and on to Southampton!

COME ON CITY!
 
Good game that and I'm hoping for more from the team for the rest of the season. ...

We've got 3 or 4 players now who are at the top of their game but without the final cherry on the cake. Kdb, Gundog, etc are going to be so driven. I am really really hoping we can win the CL for them.
