NBC really bigging up that we dropped points 'so early in the season' while failing to mention we dropped points earlier last season and we are on exactly the same number of points after 3 games this season as last.
Ussually think NBC's coverage is pretty good to be honest, a lot less biased than Sky for sure, but they are really trying to make something of it. Think we are gonna see NBC really get behind the dippers this srason.
Hopefully it motivates us onward now.
Poor selection, formation and subs from Pep today, imo.
Gundogan usual away performance.
We had no pace out side, Pep shoehorning Bernardo into a selection that just didn’t suit the opposition. We needed pace out wide and had none on either side until far too late on in the game.
Shit reffing as usual, Atkinson determined not to give us the benefit of the doubt on any borderline decisions, make a big difference when you contrast to Oliver giving the scousers a pen last week.
Subs were far too late and we lost all shape by having 2 wingers and 2 forwards on at the end.
Aguero was caught on the foot which knocked him off balance, they have just shown it on tv. It isn't obvious as the bloke catches him with his shin, so it's understandable why it wasn't given.
Salah just fucking jumped in the air for nothing.
Atkinson was never going to give it if he had kicked him ten feet in the air. There was a hand on his shoulder as well as the touch on his foot which was enough to knock him off balance and halt his momentum. Aguero didn't help by exaggerating the fall. In truth it would have been soft but I agree if it's Salah he points to the spot.
Agreed I think he is trying too hard to impress but I think it was Jesus who came on too late but was goodIt's more likely because he hasn't played enough, that he was too anxious to make an impact.
Judging by that run at the end, he may have won us the game if he'd been on ten minutes earlier. By the time he found his feet the match was over.
Sad to see Sane seemingly having some attitude problems again in the early season. Was obvious the last 2 seasons and you ever saw Pep allude to it a couple of times in the documentary.
I love Sane, I honestly believe he can be every bit as good as Mbappe going forward if he keeps his head screwed on right but there's always a niggling feeling that all isn't well with him under the surface and it seems to come to the surface everytime a new season starts.
