Manchester City vs Liverpool pre-match thread

Aguero V Suarez is an interesting one.

For me, Aguero is a finisher, like Torres when he was with us. Its all about service, give him some good through balls etc and he'll make em pay.

Suarez is something different though, he has that + he can be the provider and the creator, I don't know if Sergio has that?


You guys would have a better idea since you watch him more. How is he at that stuff?

we've never needed or used him for that so you'll never know

im quite sure he could anyone a run for their money in any kind of attacking role though....

Wasn't he top scorer and assister at one point this season?

Im surmising not in the same kind of role as this guy is suggesting though...

Lose it, and the title is pretty much goes to them.

Sorry but that's bollocks.

If we lose we'll have dropped one more point than them this season, so we'd only need them to slip up once more than us in the remaining games.

They still have Palace (A) and Chelsea (H). We still have Palace (A) and Everton (A), plus, Chelsea are by no means out of it.

The truth is, we can afford to lose. They can't. If they do they'll have dropped 5 more points than us and so will need us to lose twice or drop points in 3 of the last 6 games.

A win for us knocks them out of the race and provided Chelsea don't win at Anfield we should win the title comfortably. A draw leaves it in the balance but with us as favourites. A loss makes Liverpool favourites but we'd still be very much in the race. We're in a great position and if anyone in the media wanted to notice this, they'd realise the pressure really is on them.

All this Suarez vs Aguero stuff is a bit silly in my view. The fact is they are both incredible talents that would walk into any team. Trying to suggest one is better than the other is a bit pointless I think. Unless you can rewind history and compare each player in the same team with the same injuries, or lack of, then who knows.

I would say Aguero has the better temperament, but he's not immune from the odd lashing out or stamp as we have seen occasionally. And Dracula seems to be behaving himself a bit more these days. I would add a cheap shot about Dracula's incessant diving, but after the recent performance of one Yaya Toure (not to mention the last 5 years of Micah "Tom Daly" Richards), it would be a tad hypocritical.

Both Suarez and Aguero are incredible players, end of.

Suarez is a talisman.

Kun is an assassin .

Uncomparable .....

Sat here in Fuerteventura trying not to wish my holiday away waiting for the game. Being over here and hearing little on the pre match build up is killing me, all the papers im reading is the typical Liverpool wankathon. Please City dont let us down, ill be in a right mood for the rest of the holiday. 2-2 will do me. Silence is deafening from the City camp which I can gather, this is surely a good sign

Have you got your papers sent over from here mate?

Are city playing?

I knew Liverpool were. I thought we must have the weekend off.

not saying who's the better just Aquero is much much more than a finisher, players like Van Nistlerooy, liniker and Vieri were great finishers and just knew where to be, but Aquero scares the shit out of defenders when he picks the ball up as no matter where he is he can score a goal from nothing.
Suarez is the same, both incredible playresb

Re: Liverpool Thread 2013/14 (continued)

i think it's gonna be a tough match.its gonna be intense,fast paced due to the nature of our game,the fans will up 4 it and all that..but i still think the difference will be suarez,sturidge,sterling 1 on 1 against a slow demichelis.i think we will nick it.our attack is way 2 strong for ur defence especially @ anfield

Type with proper English and we might listen to you.

That telt him, but to be fair he might have been "cold turkey" when he posted this, not had time to go out and scouse someone's car or scouse a tv from someones house to then go and get his fix of skag with the proceeds.

That "Telt?" Him. Where are you from mate?

with the caveat of suarez being a ****

I see even Michael Owen in the Telegraph in picking the best 11 between our squads picks 7 City players and 4 Pool players. So essentially its down to the Managers to get the players at 100% & get the tactics right
