Robbie Earle on NBC, thinks the pen would've been given at the other end???

 

[come-on-barney]

Pep annoyed at the slow build up

 

[Neville Kneville]

People forget he is coming back from injury.

Fair point.

 

[TCIB]

Any mention of how long this time?

Some fellas think he is a doubt for Liverpool. Do not take it as gospel though.

Agree not a fullback, but one mistake in 45 and then to get him off?

We've got one registered left back who's eternally injured, Danilo who was brought in to cover BOTH fullback positions, and a more experienced midfielder who usually covers for left back that got a suspension due to petulance.

Not Zinchenko's fault he's having to do a job in the team. And the way he brought himself back from his fuck up, carried on, and put that fucking ball in for Serg, good on the lad.

Surely we won't throw away a two goal lead?

Why would you even put that out there??

 

[jimharri]

The home fans getting a bit whingey now.

 

[Chi-town blues]

Surely we won't throw away a two goal lead?

How quickly have NBC turned from lovers to haters. They keep going on about the non penalty. Two weeks ago they loved us. Now they have a new love.

NBC are bandwagon jumpers but at least they aren't constantly cheering on the 'istory clubs. I'll take them on the balance. Their studio pundits are awful but their commentary teams are solid.

For those blaming Zinchenko for the goal, it's worth watching how the ball arrived at him. Kompany should have played the ball back to Ederson, not Laporte, who was then rushed into passing to Zinchenko who was given the ball on his wrong foot and had a man on top of him. Neither centre half helped in that passage of play.
