Liverpool v Manchester City - Match Thread

[Modo]

Soft, but that's a pen. Fucking hell

 

[Alan Hardaker]

Piss poor defending all round..lucky..there

 

[Bradley]

Stupid from Fabinho.

 

[Judge Jules]

Ahahahahahahaaaaaaaaaa.

 

[darkstarexodus]

Thank god.

 

[Red Mullet]

Dreadful penalty!

YES!

 

[Modo]

Wtf Gundo

 

[Shay_K]

ROW Z

 

[Bradley]

That was tragic.

 

[davud graham]

Lucky as fuck, lets make them pay for that

Just Fabinho for that block.

Otherwise it’s actually good defending so far. Not sure what game you’re watching.

 

[Modo]

Anyone else hear Milly on the sidelines?

 

[LeTallecWiz]

FFs Pen

it's a pen *but* he clearly looks or it.
he's a cunt.

 

[FoxForceFive]

Dreadful from Fab but an equally dreadful spot kick.

Thank fuck.

Let's make it matter. Mane magic before HT to make it 1 nil would be nice.

 

[Bradley]

City.

They don't like it up'em.

Sterling initiated the contact with Fabinho's left leg (should not be a penalty IMO) but Fabs left his right leg hanging out behind and subsequently makes contact, which clearly is a penalty.

 

[Red Mullet]

Ooh free kick on the box.....

 

[Alan Hardaker]

I mean what the hell is Thiago doing getting in the way taking free kicks..

 

[LeTallecWiz]

We are so much more dangerous with Mane in the team ... the guy terrifies every defense.

 

[LeTallecWiz]

0-0 is fair I guess ...
But if Klopp wants to win, sub THiago for Ozan, and bring our captain into the midfield.

Once again slo-mo creates a distorted impression. A nano second movement isn't 'hanging'. The replay left it hanging.

 

[dogboy]

Yep, shouting at Robbo all the time.

 

[Shadey]

Well ain’t too bad to say their the inform team in the league but we’re desperate for a goal.

 

[gkmacca]

Yeah, what we need is one of Trent's Beckham-style punts over the crossbar.

 

[Alan Hardaker]

Lack of intensity, slow build up. The first half lethargy that seems to have crept in recently. Jones doing very little,Thiago disappointing as well. Front 3 lacking energy..Lucky to come in 0-0.

 

[Frogfish]

We're the better team. How Mane didn't score from that header is ... ugh.

 

[Hansern]

Thought we grew into the game, and were lucky regarding the penalty miss.
Need to take one of our big chances though, we aint getting many of those.

Positive half imho.

 

[rurikbird]

We've grown into the game and had better chances from open play. City came into the game visibly with more confidence, but then gradually remembered that this is Anfield and they should be nervous and afraid and the penalty miss exemplified that.

Firmino is playing superbly; too bad Mane and Salah can't quite match his sharpness at the moment. Jones has grown in confidence as the game progressed, I think he can produce a moment of magic if he gets a chance. I really, really wish we could see Fabs at DM in place of Gini, we would get a lot more solid base and faster distribution of the ball too.

You are clearly watching a different match to the one on my feed. This isn't Spurs we're playing.

Mica Mica Mica, how can he say Gündogan has superb penalty technique??????????????????????????
