Match Thread | Manchester City vs. Liverpool (09/11/25)

[Brightwell Bros.]

We are the winning fucking lot.

 

[super_city_si]

Much better team. Same again second half pls

 

[alexmcity]

Very good performance so far.

Doku the best player on the pitch by far.

 

[IronsideKozuch]

The best I have seen us play. Sleek passing and incisive movement. Funnily Cherki struggling the most.

disagree. Cherki mostly good for me, not best game, but decent. Foden could have done much better with few situations hes been in

 

[Haaland94]

Tijani on for Rayan for more control.

 

[oakiecokie]

Its not over by a long shot and as much as I despise the fuckers,they have a habit of fighting back.
Already had a warning with VVD on corners and he`s a threat from them.
Nice early goal from Foden in this second half. Come on you Blues get the fuck in again.
Great first half.

 

[Blue_Lightsaber]

To the people slagging off Doku on here give your heads a shake. The guy is a game changer and when he’s on this form he is unplayable. Yes, he has a fuck up in him but he genuinely terrorises defenders.

Liverpool are so intent on stopping Phil and Cherki getting involved they are giving Doku free rein and he’s taking full advantage.

Doku raises his game in big games.

Last 2 seasons that he's been here.. he's had SEASON DEFINING GAMES.

23-24 Spurs away drew the pen
24-25 Villa at home.. trivela assist to Nunes

But he still gets all the hate.. must be because

 

[BooksReject]

I went 2-2 before the game, it better fucking not be. We are immense today

 

[ufo]

savi for cherki

 

[Xhavenjoe]

Captain obvious here but if there's another pen for us Erls gotta do better.

We have missed 4 of our last 5 penalties against them

 

[01cravend]

Phil has been on the ball less than Cherki, who has been shite. Would like to see Marmoush play off Erling for one of them after an hour

 

[TinFoilHat]

I want to see a full on Spitty rant at full time. Showing the world what a **** he is.

COME ON CITY!!!!

 

[Mancity1980]

Savinho or reijnders for Cherki please. He’s completely shut down . As expected the game is too fast for him

If it’s too fast for Cherki it’s too fast for Reijnders. As for Savinho, you’re joking right?

 

[WesthoughtonJohn]

Should be 3 up. Just don't get a silly red card or piss about at the back and you'll see this out. Liverpool look beaten mentally.

Look beaten physically to be fair.
I'd say it should be 3-1 - should have scored our penalty (not a feckin penalty for me, and it's NEVER getting awarded without VAR), and LiVARpool goal should stand as Robertson does NOT interfere
Our game is ruined by VAR most of the time

 

[Bluemoon115]

There's no fucking "line of sight" law, it's interfering.

And if you're ducking out of the way of the fucking ball, you are interfering to the point of being in the cunting way.

In short, fuck off and cry you scouse cunts.

 

[mattyads]

Cherki aside we have been good.

One more goal and I can relax

 

[Keepingthefaithsince1976]

bootifull

 

[BigJoe#1]

Maybe. I think he had to duck, though. If he doesn't I think it hits him

Correct the ball could've hit him and gone in any direction, keeper couldn't be certain which way it would go or if he was offside (which he was). He was definitely interfering with play from an offside position.

 

[alexmcity]

Liverpool are so intent on stopping Phil and Cherki getting involved they are giving Doku free rein and he’s taking full advantage.

No, Doku was phenomenal against United and Arsenal as well. Big game player.

 

[PragueBlue]

I think we've been very good so far. Stuck to our game plan and created some decent chances, while limiting them to very little.

All have played a part but Doku has been excellent, Foden lively and Nunes once again showing what a good RB he is becoming. Shame about Haaland's penalty (needs to start hitting them harder) but he made up for it to some degree with a goal that I'm not sure he knew too much about. Cherki hasn't really got into the game yet though and I wonder if Guardiola might be tempted to bring Reijnders on for him for a bit more control.

Anyway, we played very well and if we can keep this up, we should win this.
