Liverpool (N) | Community Shield | Post-Match

[BlueTG]

Frustrating how we kept trying to pull crosses back towards the penalty spot when we got towards the byline. So used to having to find a midfielder, rather than the 6-yard box for Haaland.

 

[HelloCity]

Bernado covered many miles. Bit harsh on that lad to be fair.
But you were there so saw it for yourself

We’re talking match fitness which is completely different than fitness.

 

[LucahArchie10]

Same old City

Look back in the last few years we really do start slow never out the blocks

Pre season was a pisstake imo

4 big players couldn't travel, the American team tried to kick lumps 9ut of us & the on off Bayern game was a complete farce

Haaland is 2 yards off the pace & the LB situation isn't good

Berny, now his start has been poor we need to get thi gs sorted otherwise we have a player who doesn't want to be here imo

Ederson imo will have his arse clipped this year, Ortega hasn't come to make numbers up

Work hard in.midweek forget today & let's get behind the best team in the land

 

[we are the east stand]

Not long back but here’s my take on it ….
-Liverpool having played more games in pre season showed, they were sharper.
-we need a specialist left back
-our end was very loud today
-Alvarez looks really good
- I’m a fan of the community shield being on the road rather than Wembley, although Leicester isn’t the easiest to get in and out of.
-nothing too much to worry about imo, we’ll be fine this season.

Couldnt believe the one kev pulled back to the edge of the area when haaland was busting a nut for a ball pinged across the 6 yard box.

I fucking hope it's same old City. Same old City has won us 4 titles out of 5, and 6 out of 10.

Against Liverpool you need aggressive players. Today we hardly put a glove on them. Battlers who can stand up to the pressure. Once Alvarez and Foden came on the match changed.

Was home before 9pm. I enjoyed the day and the atmosphere. I thought we bossed significant parts of the game, but made a few sloppy errors too. On another day we’d have won the game in the first half. Haaland will be lethal. Another weeks training will help. No concerns at all from me although the sooner we get Cucurella the better.

Going to have to find a different way to play to Haaland's strength. Not going to be easy

 

[2infinity&beyond]

Well thats the quintet gone.

 

[johnevans]

Giddy Scousers, giddy press/media, giddy trolls (especially from the Red ends of the East Lancs) on websites, including 'Bluemoon', all making claims about what will happen this season, all enjoying the moment City didn't quite come up to the mark..

As with so many seasons over the past decade, let's see where we are at the end of May 2023.

As Judge Parry said over a century ago, 'Manchester is the place where people get things done. 'Don't say what you are going to do, do it'. That is the Manchester habit'

 

[Kippax.]

Any other set of fans booing the national anthem would have been hung up and set an example off.

Not the scouse twats, “Liverpool would prefer the Walk on anthem”. Fuck off!

 

[Roy Munson]

But it’s not mate .. if we’d of won it’d of been 150 pages on how good we are and we’ve won another pot.That’s my take on it .

Respectfully, that's bollocks. Post match threads after defeats usually have far more pages than threads after a win. The Real Madrid 2nd leg defeat has more pages than the Villa final day thread, ffs!

 

[A57 the snake]

List of threads that we can expect in the next 9 months:

Positives to be taken from todays defeat
FFS
Grealish cost 100million
Overreactions to todays performance
Pep overthinks it again
We should of signed a left back
Is Haaland really all that?
Fuck the family stand, they are responsible for the bad atmosphere
Can we win the league again?

Worth a thread on its own.

 

[Blue and still suffering]

Bad day at Black Rock - end of and we move on - nowt out there to worry us

It's a pity that Dias's right arm wasn't missing for the penalty!

 

[Agueroooo9320]

We had Sterling and Jesus,we now have Grealish and Mahrez,hope I’m wrong but SHIT!!!

we have foden and alvarez fyi. so all is not lost

 

[dachoosen1]

Honestly didn't think we were too bad considering our pre season they were as they should be as they have played a heck of alot more

 

[Franny 1234]

imagine being them

What the fuck is that banner about ?

 

[Oasis1980]

What the fuck is that banner about ?

Exactly. Why the fuck would we want to be anything like those hideous cunts?!

It did indeed, we conceded 2 goals ;)
