***City v Liverpool Official Match Thread***

[Bluemoon16]

Seems like Pep isn't really bothered with domestic cups this season. Will backfire big time if he fails to win the PL and champion league now.

If he is not bothered why did he go until the semi, for the second year running, and made a total fuckup?
Why not exit early?

Would've been great if we had made it to the finals and won it. But I don't give a toss that we out now. What matters now is that we go on to win the PL and champions league and stop the quadruple wankfest by the media.

At that point today's loss would ironically be the sweetest schadenfreude of this season.

Would laff my bollocks off for a decade if the dippers lost the FA cup final and we won the PL and UCL . We can hope and dream .

indeed , scouse have only reached the final . Their schedule , compared to ours is pretty hard . Also, have you noticed how bad at defending rip van dyke is ? have you seen how many chances Salah misses? As for Allison , a disaster waiting to happen .

The next few weeks will be a total meltdown for them and their cheering media.

1. Chelsea's recent form has been improving dramatically and the FA Cup is literally the only trophy they can win this season. They'll go for it all the way.
2. Dippers upcoming fixtures are quite congested and since they're chasing us they'll have to win every single game.
3. Villareal won't be a pushover too. They've knocked out Juve and Munich. They'll fancy their chances against the Dippers and won't be bullied or intimidated by them in the slightest form. They'll tire them further across both legs.
4. I still believe VD is overrated this season and their defense is quite fragile. They've conceded 4 against Benficia across two legs and 2 against us today although we didn't play our best team/formation.

This is all on Pep he is a complete egotistical CUNT. He thinks his bigger than the club he can go fuck right off.

I think there are a few fans who think he’s bigger than the club !!

I said it twice and I’ll say it for the 3rd time .
Pep is a championship manager when he hasn’t got 11 top tier players in the starting line up - today was a complete mish mash of a starting 11 , some
Of which should never have started .

Zilch has mental problems
Sterling never ever plays well against the dippers
Jesus will never be a big match winner for us

All 3 played .

Klopp has played the same team all season and he’s 1 point behind us —- Pep whines that his players are tired and he has no choice etc (how many subs did he make today ?) —— what he means is , if his top players are injured then he’s fucked.

Let’s just call this for what it is - another clusterfuck from PG .

Pep is a championship manager?

Have a bit of fucking respect you ungrateful cunt

If anyone was going to take it out of context , it would be a tit like you , you fucking idiot !!

[Lev Bronstein]

That first half!!! I don't think we've played as badly for ages. When you get beat, you have to give some credit to the opposition, but I don't think Liverpool were that great at all.

It works like this, football is a team game, anybody with any knowledge of the game knows this, you get a team playing a certain way and all the players get used to each other’s, pace, style and perception, then you make monumental changes and you lose all that,
.what happened today was one manager realised that the other didn’t and the result was a obvious after the team selection

[carl_feedthegoat]

If he wanted to rest players he should have won with Spuds and one of Palace and Soton.

You're like buses, there's two more due

I wasn't a comment on what you were talking with Carl, mate.
But on the subject: do you think his tactics were spot on and correct?

He thinks peps bigger than City mate - when he leaves he will self combust .

You are spot on, a corner header that should have been save, then the keeper fuck up, then a defensive fuck up that the keeper should have done beyond horrible display much of it down to the manager again

[zuricity]

a corner header where the scorer clearly manhandled Jesus and on an Easter weekend as well . Clear offensive foul .

Steffen after the match.

[brite blu sky]

I said he might do a brainfart.

The things i've learnt are that Liverpool actually quite fear us - they only just beat a weak team with their best 11 and looked nervous for a while 2nd half in the face of that shambolic city 11.

If you are going to select a weak defence who haven't minutes together then you must have an experienced keeper. That was the biggest of many flaws today.

Foden Grealish and Jesus are still boys and play like it. Without someone to glue them together they are like headless chickens.
We should have been bedding in a Rodri back up all season and have said bye to Fern last summer.

Without Rodri we have an alarming lack of responsibility for receiving the ball and calming the play. KDB can paper over that fault a bit, but basically Rodri is the platform that secures the front lot.

Haven't mentioned Sterling as he should be sold, as many have said many times.

Steffen after the match.

That is why I am saying we should give him some slack. Shit happens
I am happy the players are with him and I hope they will come together around him for the next month and a half.

Ake was brilliant today .

I don't give a fuck what anyone says, Steffen, Zinchenko and Sterling should never play in a important game again

He was - said so least twice in the thread, couple of perfect tackles in the area and generally one of the calmer players

You're in your 50s right?

You should be fucking ashamed of yourself the way you carry on. Waiting for the rare time that your team loses so you can stick your chest out and start ranting about our most successful Manager ever, regardless whether it's his fault or not.

I was here before pep, I'll be here after.

Please stop worrying about when I will or won't stop supporting city.

And about my mental health for that matter.

Have a look in the mirror, you jealous, ungrateful cunt

[brite blu sky]

Zinch will get back to being ok needs his country back first, hes played big games for us before and scrapped though

Steffen was at fault for first goal, made no attempt as he hesitated, no anticipation. Could also have saved the last if he had again anticipated it a bit, would have been a good save but it was doable. I doubt he will recover from that at City - will need to move on.
Just sell Sterling

[KinkyKinkladze]

Steffen is dog shit. Every time he's played for us, he's dog shit. It's been evident since game 1. Annoyingly I said to my host before the game that if anybody rushes him, closes him down, he'll fuck up.

That being said, I watched him the minute that final whistle blew as I was in their end. Poor bastard was broken and nobody came to him for about 2 minutes and even then it was a sub and 2 staff. I genuinely felt for the man.

However, he should never play a game for us again. He really isn't a good keeper. No shot stopping ability, no command, no footwork. I really don't understand how he's even America's number 1. Let him go, rebuild his career and put a kid as number 2.

We have a day like today every season , the highs of last Wednesday and the lows and shit show of a first half today . Let’s hope we have the last laugh , it will be sweet .

Have to agree with this Carl, you only ever seem to be vocal in order to be negative. You may often be right, but it doesn't do you any favours by only ever pointing out the negative. Lets face it there is a fuck sight more positive supporting City than neagtive.

What has age got to do with it you fucking Tit !?

Most fans are appalled at peps performance today with his team selection but once again , without fail, pouncing on my posts .

Too fucking funny .

Re BBS - agree with whoever you fucking like , it’s all about opinions and most do agree with the clusterfuck produced by PG today or is the match thread a figment of my imagination?

PS If my rants and ravings (even if I’m right ) upset some of the more sensitive posters then all you have to do is press that little button on the page .

See , problem solved .

Well pep cant afford to fuck up now this season, pressure is on him now.

If we meet the murderers in the CL then this game might have done us a favour in a wierd way, i could see us tonking them properly for once.
