You said it beefy.
This is what football is all about. Amazing entertainment and a clear gulf of class between what every neutral agrees are the best two teams on the planet.
The ref was very far from a homer but then again, wtf do we expect? It's been like this for years.
That's why pep went on his rant that time "we did, with no help" etc
We play against 12 men in almost ALL of the big games, whether we're home or away.
And we have this many pots.
Truly remarkable
There’s a lot to be said about how we have to beat 16 men every weak but even more about how we manage to do it.
What we seen today was a team who said, against all the negativeness, that we are here to stay and the only way you will get by us is if you can overcome what we stand for. We, for me, were far the better team who tried to control the game. Liverpool were the exact opposite and tried to get something on the break. 2 completely different games but both exciting and successful in their own right.
An interesting debate the other day where they all agreed that over the last few years, these were the 2 best teams that have graced the PL. By default, they were saying that City have been the best team in this era of football. Who could argue otherwise.
