Liverpool - post match thread.

I thought a draw was a fair result actually, both sides missed big chances to win it, and Cabellero made some smart saves throughout. It was very important not to lose, as it will be against Arsenal. The Lallana chance was almost as bad as the Sterling one, and Aguero missed a couple towards the end. I'm fine with a point based on the display.

I do think we got a few things wrong to put on that display though. We were fortunate that Liverpool couldn't capitalise at 1-0 when we looked dead on our feet, and bringing Sagna on changed the game because we finally had some energy where it mattered - I still can't understand why we didn't start that way? Toure is not the man for this type of game, hasn't been for years either.

Im convinced this side will improve ten-fold when we get new fullbacks who can defend, Clichy has been way below par this season, and we don't even want to play our RB's. None of them really work in this type of system, and thankfully they're at the end of their careers.
 
Honestly dreading the derby. I'm struggling to even imagine how ridiculous the refereeing will be, given the refs treatment of us and them.
 
We just cant put teams away which is really frustrating.

Though Stones and Otamendi were excellent and Dinho put in a shift and a half.

Biggest concern for me though is the full backs. Clichy was really poor again and WTF was Sagna doing when he came on? He was woeful. Fullbacks HAVE to be a priority in the summer

Clichy didnt foul Firminio at all. He gets the ball which makes it fair. Clichy cant just stop after running and kicking the ball.

So that doesn't make it a penalty? He touches the ball, not cleared it, which is still in Firmino s possession and after he faults him. I think it was a penalty. We had 2 penalties as well, but we played so poorly that I can't blame the ref for the result.
 
There's no way Redknapp and Souness would be saying Mané should have had a penalty over a coming together like that, it happens to Sterling and Aguero so often and I've seen them saying "Oh there's nothing in that... just a coming together". I still think Clichy gets the ball before taking the man out but it was a little clumbsy just in the context of them missing two fouls in one attack with Aguero and Sterling, you don't give it for one that could go either way(could easily have justified not giving it I mean).
 
Mike Riley is sat at home with a glass of wine obviously Red. Thinking my boys have done it again well done Michael Oliver you stopped City just like Anthony Taylor and Andrex Marriner just to name but a few
 
Happy with the point but oh my Sergio's finishing is abysmal and wtf is pep going on about proudest day of his career
