Liverpool (N) | Community Shield | Post-Match

[Tuearts right boot]

Best team won, let's see over the season...

 

[Charlesfarsbar]

Did they win the World Cup there at the end ?

Nunez is obviously feeling the pressure based on that reaction

we looked well undercooked which is as you expect but they don’t give out any prizes in August

The clueless woman on the mike killed it for me.

Some thoughts from my head.

Haaland makes amazing runs, is first to react and had a lovely finish off fodens back heel.
Alvarez might be different gravy, his desire to pass quickly is so exciting.
Kev had jet lag.
Cancelo was horrible - and we need a left back.
Walker looks rusty.
Dias looks even more rusty.
Bernardo and Rodri as a double pivot is fucking horrible. The double pivot is fucking horrible.
VAR is the worst.
The agenda is still real.

Well, played out as expected I suppose. It was really only our second preseason friendly after the disruption to the Bayern game but they’ve played a few. Still disappointing given the opposition. It felt very much like the same pattern as against them as last season. We’re better, but take half an hour to get started, miss chances and give silly goals away. Oh well, looking forward to the start of the season.

Still preseason for too many players to deserve anything out of this friendly.
Dias, Ake and Rodri looked off the pace, cancelo took too long to get going.
Bernardo quality and Haaland will score loads

 

[Eccles Blue]

The Boys in Blue didn’t give in. They fought to the end. Thank you City, thank you lads, thank you fans. You didn’t quite show ‘em but hey ho we’ve got a long season ahead of us. :-)

The best team in the land and all the world.

 

[Gorton_Tubster]

A lot of players looked off the pace today, which is unsurprising given our relative lack of pre-season. Despite no one really playing well, we still created a lot of chances against a better prepared Liverpool side though. Not unduly worried. Hopefully with another week of training behind us we'll look a lot sharper next week against West Ham.

We will learn a lot from that Liverpool will just learn that they're brilliant. Either brilliant or victims is the way for them

 

[Cricket Blue]

Did the commentator say there was extra time in the event of a draw? If so, better to lose and get off.

Season starts next week.

Yes let's hope they look fitter than today!!

 

[Revolver]

We lost the charity season the Agueroooo season and last season and looked what happened.

Our opponents were not the team you wish to face if your not up to their fitness levels yet

The only irritant is that we have lost to the media darlings (which means a 24 sports media boycott).

Not too bothered about Haalands miss. It happens. The more concern is whether the likes of Grealish and Mahrez who weren’t great at the end of last season are going to push on.
