Jamie Gobber....

No wasn’t a scoucer

Sky have just shown highlights of the match.

Kompany's career end tackle on Salah wasn't even shown.

Thought putting Laporte at LB worked in the context of the opposition. We had more of a flat / traditional back 4 with none of the inverted fullback tactics we usually deploy. This took away all the space that Salah and Mane would usually target and gave their midfield no out ball when under pressure. Hes a million times better as a CB but his inclusion worked last night.

So much so that klopp moved salah into the middle as he was getting nothing out of Laporte.

It was by BBC North West, along with the commentary of “on another night, Kompany WOULD have seen red”. Tits. Could? Alright. Would? Fuck off.

Vinny wasn’t lucky,he was unlucky not to nail TomDaley Salah who has been throwing himself to the ground all over Christmas and if the FA had the balls and banned the diving twat for his Olympic style dive against the Geordies he would not have played

Salah and Mane should have both faced suspensions over the last few weeks.

Thankfully I then bumped into gdm

That reminds me. Don't they show Sumo Wrestling on TV any more? Used to enjoy that.

There was a situation where that mincing Egyptian was near the edge of our box and suddenly hit the floor, late in the game.
Didn't see any replay. Did anyone see it? Ref waved play on anyway

Klipperty is such a massive bell end. Calling for a red for Vinny, he has conveniently forgotten about the same thing Lovren did on Aguero, but that’s ok I suppose.
Double fcuking standards as usual.

Loveren’s foul was much worse Vinnie went for the ball and got it, brushing Salah’s boot on the follow through. Loveren did not go for the ball & carved Kun down

 

[mosssideblue]

Vinny was making a genuine attempt to play the ball. All this talk of scissors and studs up means little when there is barely any contact, used less force than Lovren too

Take your BTS off and comparing it to another foul elsewhere - It quite easily have been a red and I'm sure there wouldn't have been much ground for complaint

I appreciate he didn't hurt Salah and he rolled around like he had had his leg snapped, but he doesn't have to if either there was intent (I would say no) or Vinnie was deemed to be out of control and endangering an opponent (very difficult to argue against when you look at it)

My mind can’t quite remember the sheer amount of diving from Mane and Salah. It was almost jaw droppingly unbelievable how much they were throwing themselves around.

It was like seeing two Ashley Youngs from the 2011-12 title run in on one pitch.

Cheating ****s.

You could almost say that Salah’s constant diving is what let Vinnie off with a yellow because the ref would have been thinking; “I know what this diving **** is like so I’ll just play safe and get the yellow out”!

 

[mosssideblue]

To be honest, it could have gone either way. If Van Dijk had done similar to Kun, this place would have gone into meltdown.

exactly

 

[blueyorkie]

Van Dijk is a very good defender but certainly not as good as they have built him up to be, for one thing he lacks pace.

Although a good defender he seems to be old school, basically just hacking the ball away. Not sure he’d be a good fit for us

He does mince.

 

[remember arthur mann]

Watching the recording of the match, that stinking rat faced, red, rag, snide, excuse for a footballer, stating when Raheem was hauled down in the box, "nothing in it" FFS !!!!

Could be right there

I’ve been lurking on Bluemoon for years now, without actually having ever posted anything as I mainly came on here to see what all the ITKs had to say about transfers and so on. However, after last night I felt compelled to.

Absolutely amazing performance by the lads, we were unlucky not to have won by more really, especially considering the blatant penalty on Sterling (which no one seems to mention). Can’t pick out anyone for any criticism, they all played their hearts out and just wanted it more than Liverpool. However, the reason why I am posting is because I am so proud of all of us who turned up last night and sang our hearts out, cheered the boys on and made it an intimidating atmosphere for the scousers, booing whenever they had the ball. It is the best atmosphere I’ve experienced at the Etihad, made all the sweeter by the fact that the scousers were silent the whole game with the exception of a brief 5 minute spell after their equaliser (they even stopped booing Sterling at one point).

Whatever way this title race goes, last night was special and I am glad that I was able to have been there and experienced it. Still haven’t fully come off the high!
