Liverpool - post match thread.

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.

You couldn't be more wrong if you tried.

Sergio scored again to add to his incredible record and Pep is rightly proud of the players who gave everything out there today.

I get he's proud of his players but proudest day of his life come on!!!

Yeah Aguero scored and I'm ready happy for him for his missed chances we're ridic

Really enjoyed that, a committed team performance, much more like it. Thought Stones was immense and he's going to be some player when he gets a decent partner to play alongside on a regular basis

 

[Benarbia]

You really are a strange woman.

I love the way that maybe 15/20 people comment about Sergio's finishing but you pick on mine

On a side note, two slips cost us two goals today (Clichy and Aguero), and against Middlesbrough the players were slipping all over the place.

Happy with the point but oh my Sergio's finishing is abysmal and wtf is pep going on about proudest day of his career

Probably something to do with the fact that the players left everything on the pitch today.....a fantastic reaction to the loss midweek and we outplayed liverpool for a majority of that game.....to the point there was only one team trying to win it in the second half....

Like it or not pool are one of the most dangers teams in the prem....especially against teams like us who will go out and attack them which then gives the space.....we were very brave to play that way today...and it worked.

factor in the tiredness emotionally and physically from Wednesday night and I get exactly what Pep is proud of...you could see that they had worked on nullifying liverpool today WITHOUT compromising his own beliefs of attacking ...teh wide players were key to this pushing so high and wide that it kept liverpool on their toes.....the players executed the plan perfectly and that is why he is proud

I find myself agreeing with you on aguero but I'd say that pep is merely pointing towards the clear disadvantage the team faced from the 1st minute... that is one of the most scandalous refereeing displays I've ever seen, coupled with a dicklick linesmen who ray Charles is modelled on.... its been a long time since I've wanted to invade the pitch and throat chop the official but my God:...

Pep has been subtle in that we were robbed, rather than being a crying twat like Maureen!!

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.

fully agree

I thought however clichy (who i agree with you about normally) did very well today against a very tricky player...he looked more up for it than ever and was very aggressive. He was unlucky with the slip and then unlucky with the decision.

 

[ReeceBrady]

Otamendi, Stones 9/10, Clichy playing like 25, Fernandinho playing good for 75% of the match at right back, The front three okay, De Bruyne and Silva fabulous.. Agueros misses and poor volley at the end, pretty bad, But I think he played great as a good false 9, like pep wants him to evolve. Gabriel Jesus will fill those shoes but and we will continue to improve.

OH Yaya toure i think we should pay him no more*. Sorry but Yaya is not bigger then the club even know nothing we have accomplished would be without him, Thank you Yaya for being my favourite player with Silva, But time to go.

This is my first time posting and I just hope everyone of you Citizens can not be sad and disappointed about these results, Pep and city will go far. in due time.
