Fucking hell! Not another one?As a new poster, although I've followed the boards for a couple of years, I'm curious about the opinion of city fans about the strength of the respective first teams and squad depth.
On a 4-3-3 formation, and with a red bias, I would have selected a combined team of :
Alisson = Ederson
Robinson > Mendy
Alexander Arnold > Walker
VVD > Ake
Laporte > Gomes
Fabinho > Fernandinho
De Bruyne > Henderson
Rodri > Henderson
Mane = Sterling
Salah > Jesus
Aguero > Firminho
Klopp = Pep
That would give 5 Liverpool, 4 City and 2 equal. That doesn't necessarily mean I think Liverpool is a better team, just on this head to head match up. Perhaps the comparisons aren't appropriate, perhaps you disagree?
In the past almost everyone would have said City have much stronger depth. Probably still true but perhaps less so than for many years with some of your recent best players retiring/aging while Liverpool have finally managed to improve past just the first team.
lf you think Allison is as good as Ederson, Fabinho is better than Fernandinho, Terrence Trent Darby is better than Kyle Walker, Klippety is the equal of Pep, you can have Jordan fucking Henderson in your team twice, and we play Sergio and Jesus in the same XI, there’s no point in talking with you, so I won’t.
