Never seen so many 50/50 scarves
Not from tourists but from Season Ticket Holders near me
What's that all about?

It was to be fair mate. Raz's shoulder is ahead of Matip's foot... JUST!

...but is it the correct frame? Doesn't look like the "first point of contact when the ball is played" to me.

We saw a level today from City, which, at times, is miles beyond anyone else playing the same game today.

We should have been three or four goals to the good in the first half.

A crazy opening ten-minute spell at the start of the second half cost us the three points, but we were still the team asking most of the questions.

Thought Ederson, Cancelo and Stones were ropey and Sterling was caught on his heels a too few many times, but all the lads showed the intensity we are going to need to win our remaining games.

Thought Rodri, Kev, Bernie and Phil were immense but Gabby was the best player on the pitch.

Liverpool were ordinary, to the point you wonder how they would manage without one of their strikers not coming to the rescue, as their midfield is fucking woeful.

Completely agree with the midfield of Liverpool, I think we seen an enormous gap in terms of quality. Bernardo was outstanding along with KDB and Rodri. I do rate Fabinho for the Dippers but I think we have the better player in Rodri in that holding area.

A lot of negativity on here about Sterling from people who are better tacticians than Pep. Maybe there was a reason we played our three fastest pressing forwards against a team whose most dangerous attack is a direct long ball counter, can't imagine what that would be.

And you think they pressed well?
As for the Pep comment - well close the forum.

So will Garth “The Blob” Crooks have a team made up of all City and Bus Wrecker players. If not he should have.

Wtf we do in the dressing room at half time just beats me.

We’ve started the second half poorly all season, i said it right from the off in the early games this season, this is from September:



About ¼ of the home stands hadn’t bothered getting back to their seats neither. While Liverpool fans had all got back to their seats, were well up for it and their team were the same.

Fine, then let her. What I can't take on board is you behaving like a crying child. Get off your horse and wind your neck in, you baby.

OK bud , I will try and protect a much valued member of this group. I have my values you have yours. Now fuck off

Not long back from the game. Woulda coulda shoulda, yep could have put it to bed but didn’t.
Sterling didn’t look offside and none of them even appealed. Notice Mane’s goal didn’t incur such scrutiny. But, we had so many great chances in the first half. We are still top, we get ten days before our next game, be a shame if they are on the wrong end of some real shithouse assaults next Saturday like our lads were today, real shame.
Fuck the lot em, City!

Thought we were brilliant today against a really good team. Laporte and Stones were imperious, Rodri, KDB and Silva bossing the midfield. Foden gave another quality performance and Jesus had a great game and scored a great goal.

The disappointment is that with a top striker we win that game easily, Jesus had 2 chances to square ball for a potential shot and hit side netting and Grealish near the end has to play KDB in.

That was really sloppy from Grealish and actually could have cost us. Pep will be showing him that I’m sure.

Just back home from Piccadilly. Great performance by The Lads, especially Kyle, Joao, Bernie and Kevin.

Mullered them, end of..

They only got back in it due to errors on our part (Gabby not covering Robertson for the first and wtf was that 2nd half kick-off from Kevin to Eddy that conceded possession to allow them to build up to the second equaliser?)

That said, we mullered them and could've ran out clear winners but for weak finishing, yet another dubious VAR decision and those two errors.

Don't let any of those media tosspots try and spin it any other way.. we're far and away the better team and we're top of the league still and it's in OUR hands for the run-in.

Come on you Blues.. 'a rush and a push and the land is ours!'
