Liverpool did not play that well and did not have to, quite honestly we are entitled to feel disappointed with how it has gone since Pep arrived, 10 points off the top spot and now back in a fight for a top 4 finish....after the start we had, with the supposed best manager in the world arriving and £150m sent in the summer? I could make myself look like the big sensible/reasoned City fan here and go down the "we're just building" route but honestly, I don't feel like that at all at the moment.
That performance today was really rather insipid, we created very little up front, Sterling to me looked like someone who had an agenda today, tried to show the Kop what they were missing and placed that above trying to help his team, the amount of times he took the flashy option today, trying to beat another defender instead of getting the ball in the box.
Disappointing from KDB, Sterling, Toure, Kun, Fernandinho.....good from Stones, Otamendi (mostly), Silva worked very hard in the 2nd half. Too many of our supposed big players are only turning in big performances every 3/4 games these days.
Crap end to a pretty poor year.
