Liverpool could have at least given us 5 minutes to mock them, but no.....straight to the other end and equalise

what a thing of beauty that was lol

That wasn't?

To be fair they could have had 2 or 3 already. if we can get to HT 1-1 I'll be happy

Not happy!

Not happy!

1-1 at HT would only have delayed the pain

Liverpool are in a different league to us.

theyd take Aubam out of our side and laugh if you offered them any of the rest

personnel wise were not close to good enough but we know that, at the end of the day weve added Gabriel and Willian to last years shambles of a squad, hence why theres soo many square pegs in round holes out there not to mention 2 or 3 we thought wouldve left this summer by now

Yes. they’re definitely weaker defensively.

They concede less because few teams actually lay a glove on them. The majority of teams were beaten before a ball was kicked season before last.

Not doughting your stats .
City play mainly in opponents half and will score goals.
But when they don’t play that well ,like against Leicester their defenders need to play well.
But apart from Laporte they are not good enough.
When you pay that sort of money he should be the finished article not need coaching , especially off Pep.
If Leicester’s finishing had been better they could have scored 8/9.

Still doesn’t make them “weak as piss” totally agree they have issues and he’s struggling to find/develop/buy a settled defence, but they don’t win games 5-4 or 7-6 every week and to only concede 2 goals less than one of the best defences the PL has seen says a lot imo.

Rob Holding is avin a nightmare. Dont understand why Gabriel did not start.

 

[fundy]

We want to give it away a bit more in our own half lol. Watching the likes of Holding on the ball rather than midfielders or attackers is clearly not going to end well

 

[HomerJSimpson]

Fulham are nailed on to finish rock bottom. Don't have a clue

Asking way too much from him, hes a no nonsense centre half suddenly being asked to launch our attacks from his own 6 yard box

I see Paddy Power paid out on relegation today lol

I see Paddy Power paid out on relegation today lol

As long as we are bottom!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Fair enough result albeit Mane shouldve seen red and we really need some new bodies, especially in midfield (and to clear out a lot of the deadwood)

too many square pegs in round holes

I think they could payout on Liverpool winning the league. cant se anyone getting near them tbh

We maybe more organised and resilient but still lacking quality especially midfield.

Klopp puts Keane in his place ??

 

[Deleted member 1740]

will we see a scruffier goal than Arsenal’s?

Good win though, made up for Jota slotting.

 

[davemc1]

I think you arsenal lads are very harsh on your team. Tonight was miles better than you have been the last 3 or 4 years at Anfield.

The one thing I’ve not seen yous mention is the stupid playing out from your own 6 yard box. Wow, so bad. Maybe you’re not playing lpool every week so you’ll get away with it,but piggin he’ll, I’ve not the constitution for that

Oh, an Bazzatron may have a point. Jota shudda had a hat trick!! ????
