I have hated United all my life, everything about them. They're our local rivals so it makes sense but I think fans of other clubs also disliked United in the 90s & 00s and most things about them. It started with the manager, arsehole players like Neville and Keane, the constant whining to officials, the media love-in, going to school surrounded by reds, basically everything. I look at this Liverpool side and I may be in the minority but I actually like Klopp, he is clearly a very good manager but more than that he is personable and charismatic. They play decent enough football and probably Robertson aside, I don't have a particular dislike for any of their players. For me, it boils down to two things, firstly the media, the media love-in for this club is cringe-worthy, obviously magnified by having 90% of the pundits on tv being ex-Liverpool. Secondly and most annoying of all, is their fans. They truly are a different breed, I know all clubs have dodgy / weird / idiot / nobhead fans, City included but Liverpools percentage of wrong-uns is seemingly off the chart. Worryingly they are a different breed having not won a title in 30 years, I dread to think what they will be like come May.

I'm a Liverpool fan and I can't stand most Liverpool pundits. Owen, Nicol and Thompson actually make me feel ashamed. Murphy makes me fall asleep. Redknapp and Souness are meh.

I think Carra and Neville have good chemistry, so that's the only one I can think of that is OK.

I'm happy I live in Sweden ;)

“thommo” is a fuckin dinosaur who stopped being relevant 35 years ago. Hes 2nd only to “aldo” in the bell end stakes.

“carra” shouldnt be anywhere near tv after spitting at a 14 year old girl. A complete shit house of a man. Hes also ridiculously biased.

souness is the only one who says it how it is. Manages to put his allegiances to one side to be professional in his work.
 
crazy to think how far ahead have got in the premier league ?? they don't play like city and pep style of football, kick it long and gamble at the back with them pushing right up with the wing backs, yes they have had some luck with VAR and officials and the game vs city was a disgrace, i think that was the nail in the coffin this season for city to fight back knowing the luck and dodgy officials on there side and them 2 goal yesterday that VAR crossed off would have stood against city

but am not just blaming the premier league officials and liverpool have play well and city have not helped themselves at times and key injuries have cost city in rotation and having to drag fernandinho out of his holding midfield was a big problem in big games, also i feel some city players have lost their legs and got nothing left after the 2 seasons of going hard and are burnt out

so we take our medicine like champions and don our hats to liverpool and respect to them, but the fight is not over and city will come back even stronger next season

I used to have a problem trying to understand Carragher. Now, after a few lessons in Klingon, I can make out some of what he's saying.

I think even he is wavering a bit this season. He kept it under wraps last season when the title race was so close, he knew it could go either way and didn’t want egg on his face. This year when it’s in the bag, his true colours are starting to show through. After Villa last week it was “City can do that to any team in football, apart from one or two sides”. Yesterday it was “Liverpool have been the most consistent team in the past two years”. There’s definitely a change in his attitude, subtle as it is.

Not only is it tainted mate they’ve not had a single stand out moment of drama or proven when the chips are really down they can overcome the odds. In 2012 we had VKs header at home against Utd even before the Aguero moment. In 2014 we chased down a lead and they bottled it under pressure. They bottled it last year when the pressure was on. Even this year they don’t have any stand out moments bar those given by VAR. no VK vs Leicester. They’ve not had a challenge this year the standard of the top 5 is very poor in terms of consistency. They will win it but what will the highlights or defining moments be? Beating us because VAR allowed it? They still can’t out score us even with the best front three in the world

Cannot agree we bottled it last year. 1 loss in league, finished 1 point behind City who had and I hope I am correct 2nd highest points (98) only beaten by City (100). We were narrowly beaten by the better side, to say we bottled it is not correct.
