eh?
we had 10 men for nearly all the game. And we scored 2 goals during that period.
Better all over, my arse.
We where utter fucking pish from the first to the last minute.
10 men had fuck all to do with us being so off it last night it was painful to watch.
As poor a performance as you will see in fact it looked like a City side form 20 years ago last night.
Full disclosure, Liverpool fan here, and I know that gets me a lot of bile and hate on here so sorry. But, with all due respect, I just think its a bit crazy how little some people know they have. You’re looking at a team that was in the 2nd division this millennium, almost - they’ve won the centurion season (best season in PL history to me) and then the treble last year. And now you’re looking at the apparently horrific prospect of being the 2nd best side in the whole country and probably still winning 2 or 3 cups.
Your team is injury ravaged (I agree Pep should have replaced Vinny) and the desire to maintain implausible standards at the top DOES go after a couple of years, so a lull was always expected. Any club in the world apart from maybe 3 or 4 would trade positions with you right now, with the ridiculous squad and manager you have. I guess my point is, I’m surprised more people on here aren’t just enjoying the ride more. Not everything has to be a conspiracy by the FA, not everything will always go your way. But it will soon, and I guess I meant to say chin up?

Macken would have done better than Sterling up top.We where utter fucking pish from the first to the last minute.

And meI have no words I just don't understand how loosening a man stops us playing our passing game.

They haven’t lost any significant players though have they... somebody else said we look fatigued or unfit... they don’tHow is Sane's and Laporte's injury down to physios?
That's just not true. They have had more injuries than we have but their squad is balanced. Our squad is not. Mind you had they lost TAA or Van Dijk they'd have dropped points.
the two injuries you referred to seem be unrelated to conditioning but I can’t say they’re not, can you?

You battered us and thoroughly deserved to win imo.
Better all over the pitch.
We had ten men for 80 minutes and blew a gasket, what do you expect?
We didn't have the personality as a team to impose our game on Wolves. We felt tired and just decided to defend the box. Pep took KDB off. Mahrez went off. Sterling went into hiding and isn't the best at holding the ball up anyway. I feared at 2-0 they'd get one back straight away and from that moment I knew they'd win. At 75 mins or so, I began to hope but it wasn't to be.I called it at 2-0 as we couldn’t keep the ball.
Wolves over-powered us. It's not our season in the league for a variety of reasons. Hard to take a defeat but we should learn as a group and as fans because that is the time your failings get exposed and you have the chance as an individual to see your errors and do something about it.
The trouble for us is that Otamendi and Fernandinho are lions, but both players legs are going. We can do nothing as a team until Laporte returns. We will just have to soldier on and minimise the damage. I have wondered ever since Laporte got injured as to whether Fernandinho and Ota was the right call when we have two young central defenders. It's a big call to make but young players like Foden, Rashford, Trent etc have all played at a very young age. For me ota and fernandinho are incredibly poor that it's just not tenable to rely on them. What else can we do? Clearly now Pep is going to stick with them until Laporte returns.
Writing is on the wall for Stones unless he really seizes his chance. He has been getting injuries every 2-3 games and I don't think Pep feels he can play him. He may have to in the coming days.
We need to come through this period but it's going to be difficult with a glaring weakness in the squad.
