For everyone digging out Mahrez … fuck off

Our top scorer this season (24, KDB 19, Sterling 17, Foden 14 etc.)

Started every CL game except the dead rubber second leg vs lisbon. Came off after 85 mins in madrid and team implodes. Should have scored the goal to see us through to the final.

11 prem goals from 14 starts. 8 from starting, 3 from bench. Lost once when starting which was spurs away first week and whole team was off. 11 wins (79%), 2 draws. Team have played 23 other games, won 17 (74%), drawn 4, lost 2.

Guy scores all 6 other pens this season and then misses one and its back to turning on him.

Still in our hands so get over your entitlement

Wudve been a deserved come back other than the penalty miss by Mahrez that brought back memories when he missed it at Anfield a few years ago.

Still 2-2 when trailing 0-2 at halftime is good enough for me. No matter what Liverpool does, it’s in our hands.
Now we can watch Liverpool trying to stay in it.

He'll only be thinking about Burnley. That should be a tough game for VIlla against a team who really need to win. Then they only have 2 days of rest before they come to our place.
 
Pre match a lot on here would of took a draw.
Half time everyone on here would of gladly took a draw.
The penalty miss hurts and especially cos Taylor didn't want to give it, but next week we would all want a win to finish the season as champions in front of our own fans.
I don’t buy into this media shite around it being Steven Gerrard and all the bollocks that goes with it.
To win it we will have to earn it by beating Aston Villa and I'm hugely confident we will.
Then I can sit back and let the media wank Klopp off for pushing so hard as we take to the podium with the trophy aloft

More importantly, why not Ake for Zinchenko from the start? He had a nightmare. Also, Pep wants 5 subs per game and yet rarely uses more than one. Foden's energy was sorely missed.

Cannot remember a match when Pep's substitutes won City a game ?
That may be because he seldom makes early or proactive substitutions. He seldom makes use of all 3 substitutions, or all 5 in Europe.
We only have a couple of players who can break down a packed, 9 or 10 men defence.
Phil Foden is one of those people who can unpick the lock of a blanket defence.
Why was Phil not brought on ?
City have drawn away to Palace & West Ham away.
Don't think Pep used a sub in either game ?
Very disappointing we didn't see up the League tonight...
 
Thought it was done at HT. Great fightback. Credit to West Ham they didn't give De Bruyne a sniff. Rice just shadowed him.

So rocky at the back. For everyone bemoaning the Mahrez pen, just be glad Bowen didn't pass to Antonio when it was 2-1 and that Antonio didn't score when Ferny gave him the ball 1 on 1.

We were fortunate to get a point with a deflected goal and own goal.

How Pep didn't see that our back 4 was the wrong one I don't know. It got away with a few at Wolves and West Ham are much more effective.

Is there any way we can find another defender for Sunday? Ake for Ferny and Ake for Zinchenko would be ideal!

Tell you what, we will regret if we let Jesus go this summer ahead of Sterling.

His desire and intensity is a huge asset to us.

Desire and intensity isn't enough, ultimately he posed absolutely zero threat to the West Ham goal today other than drawing some kicks.

Jesus didn't start a league match from NYD to 10th April. How much longer is that streak going to be when we have Haaland, and Alvarez?

Him staying wouldn't benefit anyone.

Double Ake then ?
 
Personally I couldn't believe Ake isn't fit enough to start. Zinchenko was absolutely rubbish. Almost as bad as the the Leicester game where Albrighton tore him to shreds. Luckily Vinny shoots and we forget that.

And finally Foden not getting ANY game time is criminal. Imagine Mbappe Haaland or Vinicus being dropped for a crucial game. Sterling should have been on late v tired legs.
 
I like the fact we have rested Phil so I think full week of training and recovery will be enough for smashing shitty Gerrard’s team.
With all things that happened to us in the last couple weeks, bring some positivity to this forum, support the team, we got this.
Come on City!

Liverpool will win both of their games
The question will be have city got the bottle to see it through when destination is in their own hands ?

Why is the question even being asked given what we've achieved in the past decade?
A couple of weeks ago everyone was saying Liverpool would win their last 4.
