Isn't there a visiting team-bus you can go and brick? Come back when there are 6 games to go and your shitehawk manager's teeth are rattling.Been sh*t all season and 7 points clear. Interesting opinion.
City got ripped twice against Liverpool in champs league . That second goal goes in at the ethiad in the quarters and it’s a diff game . Every team gets luck to win the league Liverpool this season are having there own way . Cmon how many deflections have you had this season and the Pickford goal the game should have ended before it happened . The reason why Kompany got away with the red is because salah has rode his luck with diving and the ref realised this . One thing though your recruitment this season has been fantastic like us the season before . Some very good signingsAs a Liverpool fan living in Manchester I've had many conversations with both the blue and red side of Manchester and have often been able to stay realistic. First of all it is clear to anyone without extreme bias that Manchester City are still the best side in England and this 4/7 point lead is 1 loss away from crumbling to nothing given Liverpool's recent history so I'll reserve calling my team the champions till the final day of the league.
What I do hear quite often though is this "Liverpool are so lucky and when will their luck end" etc. I just wondered whether we could put this to bed now. Kompany arguably should have seen red against Liverpool at the Etihad, 4 of our 6 first team defenders are currently injured. keita was out injured, as well as our captain for half the season. Clear handball today in the area not given. Yes we got lucky at Anfield with the penalty miss and a few dodgey penalties from Salah + some crazy deflections but baring the Everton win, most of these were in games we'd already comfortably won.
Finally, last season OPTA calculated the luckiest and most unluckiest teams based on wrong officiating decisions. Manchester City came out as the luckiest team in the league benefiting more from wrong decisions than any other team, and Liverpool came out the unluckiest, losing out on 12 points. The narrative that officials favour Liverpool etc etc just doesn't stand up to actually data and scrutiny.
I can't see Liverpool going away to United and Everton and picking up 6 points so there will definitely be a chance for City to close the gap and put the pressure on. I just pray City drop a point or 2 along the way as well. Title is far from over.
P.S, as a teacher of a Oldham primary school with links to Manchester City we were given a bunch of tickets to take the kids to the Burton game. What a pleasure it was to watch this team in action. Thoroughly enjoyed it.
Why (unless this is a Clarkie)?Consolidate second.
We rotate players to rest them for a balls out tilt for the other cups.
I will then book a holiday on a remote Pacific island from May to August to avoid dippers gloating.
RE? No, think he coached the ****s football team though.It probably has been mentioned on here but if it has, I missed it. I've just read on another forum (splitter alert!) over here that Milnerinho was sent off yesterday by his former RE teacher Jon Moss. Is that true?
