[Stiff Little Wingers]

Splendid performance and a satisfying end to the weekend. Onwards and upwards the mighty blues

I like many others have been critical but he's improved massively. He's now starting to produce some of those clever little midfield passes too

 

[Alan Harper's Tash]

Liverpool now 5 defeats in only 13 games already. Looks like they've run their course to retain their title. They never really seriously challenged. With Arsenal's slip up we can start to hunt them down yesterday. Doku completely unplayable but why pull him off for underwhelming Savinho?

He was goosed. Marmoush came on for him.

 

[HypnoticBlue]

He was supposed to be the signing of the century if you believed the press, so he came with a ton of weight on his shoulders and hasn't lived up to any of it. Mind you, Isak was also meant to be the final missing piece too, and let's not forget Nunez.

I dunno. It's almost like journalists cream themselves over certain teams transfers and not others.

I’m guessing Guehi is rethinking his upcoming move at the end of the season.

Fukin one hit wonders

 

[CambridgeExileBlue]

He is a talented footballer but you get a hell of a lot more time and space in Germany and he looks overwhelmed by the physicality here. He has looked better in Europe so far. It depends on whether he has the stomach to fight for his place and put the hard yards in to get into better condition than he's ever been in.
Could just as easily see him taking the easy option and fucking off to Bayern for half what Liverpool paid in the next couple of years.

I think he would be a much better player if he had come to us.

I can only think with the game won Pep hoped he would be able to run at a tired defence and gain some confidence

 

[Eccles Blue]

That wasn’t just for us. It was also for @Toffeedude.
I hope you enjoyed it Toffeedude? :-)

Whoops @Toffeedude I just read that our Women’s team played your Women’s team. Sorry I wasn’t being sarcastic or anything I was really only looking at the Men’s team. :-)

What’s the tool done now?

Spoke.

11 games....

Doku is the best winger in world football

 

[super_city_si]

Pep got it spot on, played the game to expose their weak points and not play into their hands for once and we made it look simple in the end. Little tweaks like haaland actively cutting off supply to VVD and forcing konate onto the ball are details we don't typically see, that has ljinders inner know how all over it for me, he knows their weaknesses better than anybody.

that tactcial move must have been so satisfying for him. It worked perfectly. Small things that have huge results.

I was also wondering whether that was ljinders? Bet that didn’t go unnoticed by lots other managers

 

[Withnail]

Any word from Carragher yet ?

Don't you mean serendipity? Roll on January for you

I meant serendipperty..........the joke is fast losing traction with repetition

Savinho was fine today, worked hard

 

[BertTrautmann'sParachute]

Any word from Carragher yet ?

Yep, eeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee

 

[uwerosler28]

Your walking alone, your walking alone, your fans have fucked off , you walking alone!, FUCKING BRILLIANT!!

 

[the blue panther]

Holding my hands up - I wanted Ake in to mark Saleh, pre match. My fears were totally unfounded as NOR was one of several stand-out performers. Saleh did fuck all and with a ittle more confidence, Nico might have had 2 goals.

A very impressive performance against a revitalised Liverpool. It's hard to laod enough praise on City after that performance: it'll go down in the anals as one of the great displays. That 2nd goal was historic. Special mention for Doku who was the stand-out a breathtaking display and that 3rd goal alone that was definitely worth the admission money.

Happy days! Anyone know any Arsenal fans? Check the arses for twitchiness.

 

[waspish]

The difference to other managers and pep is if we lose he never blamed the referee! Slott moaning about that VVD goal then went on about someone just showing him a similar goal allowed against wolves we scored! So he saying the referee is corrupt!?

 

[Dave Ewing's Back 'eader]

Any word from Carragher yet ?

I think he told folk to farhchchchchchch off! And then he was seen to spit somewhere!

 

[jaiguruKun]

Apparently Neville referred to their disallowed goal as 'blatant cheating.' I think the club need to ask for clarification of these comments.
