Liverpool (H) - Post-Match Thread

Could have brought Foden on, Ake can play midfield

With KdB clearly playing injured already?

No thanks I prefer 11 players vs 11.

I seriously don’t know why some people watch us

Genuinely don’t know why some people bother. Just played and should of beat the so called ‘best team’ in the country and all there is is negativity. Some things never change I guess.

Micah is right we haven’t replaced David.

Maybe so, but how do you replace one of the best attacking midfielders with possibly the best off the ball movement in the past decade? There's literally no player we can sign that'll replicate what he did.

What’s your evaluation?

reason to be optimistic for me

 

[domalino]

I was suggesting that his point is undermined somewhat by him not making use of 3 subs, let alone 5.

How many players have we actually had go off injured this season?

It isn't undermined at all unless you're the kind of idiot who thinks that because we haven't had an on pitch injury yet, we won't get one now.

thought gundo played well today but seems to be the whipping boy the only 2 that were poor were kev and sterling.we played ok against one of the best teams so we were never going to always get it our own way.however with a bit of luck (that we never seem to get against the dippers)we would have won.tough game will take a point win game in hand and were in the pack.

nobody and i mean nobody can question the miss pen from KDB it happens. he's won us more games bigger than today vs liverpool and will win us more games in the future. its a fair draw and my only moan ? will be city and pep did not push for the win late on, but its the top 2 team so nothing was given away and city keeping it tight and liverpool looking for hitting city the break

how many would have taken the point before the kick off ? i would have bitten klopps hand off before kick off
but liverpool have a look of being champions and just don't have the fight and belly this season to do it all again

if we could just only have a fully fit squad today city take the points home. we miss aguero and mendy in the line up and liverpool looked leggy in the last 20 minutes. foden could have been given game time in that free role in the middle and he would have open them up. but pep was happy with the point so we have to move on and go stronger after the international break ?

city get players back we are still the better team and we just need a bit of luck and magic and away we go
all it takes is one big win and city will be flying

KDB doesn't look fit, there's no fluidity in his running, 10 yard passes don't reach and the pen today topped it off.
Maybe he's having late nights with his little un as he looks jaded.
One positive from today is them rats aren't top.

they're not better than us, we just continually shit the bed whenever we're presented the opportunity to take a big club mentality and dismantle rivals when it matters. The mentality of the club has declined rapidly in the last year and a bit. It started with the coach attack but since Vinnie left we've really nose dived.

Bit like we’ve dismantled them in the last few years at the etihad?

Fuck me, does anyone actually enjoy watching us anymore? Liverpool are a very very good side and we should of won and played well. Sometimes it’s ok not to win and still enjoy it.

They are probably one of the best 5 or 6 teams in europe, as we are too. Too many expect us to just walkover some very good teams and players.
I Don’t go into the match threads anymore, but I should stop coming onto bluemoon full stop after games. Too many suck all the enjoyment out of watching and discussing football.

 

[WestGorton]

Fair result. That is all.
