Because we let an embarrassingly bad attacking team score 3 goals against us in the 2nd half. Specifically, we completely failed to defend 2 identical deep freekicks from nearly the halfway line. We should never be giving up a 2 goal lead at home. Do you have brain damage or something?

Not fucking up defensively is a lower bar than missing chances. Like I said in a previous post - missed chances are going to happen to everyone. But we had already gotten a 2 goal lead with 45 mints to play. The defense and team mentality is to blame for not seeing it out.

Aguero,s record stands up with the best of all time that's why this thread is an utter embarrassment to this board and all the scouse and rag cunts looking in will be pissing themselves . What if any team that's get relegated in any given season took their chances ? they wouldn't get fucking relegated would they ? but we are breaking every fucking record going !?!?!?! what a load of fucking bullshit started by a spoilt cunt who never goes to a game EMBARRASSING !!!



Hmm, not much room for debate there then. Sorry, brilliant finishing all game then. Chill.

I am chilled and enjoying watching and supporting the greatest team ever seen in the history of English football . So as a mod your supporting the perennial miserable cunts on here who never go to game and cant wait for us to fuck up ????

NT as much as I agree our finishing could be better at times. Losing to rags was mostly down to shite defending. We shouldn't have to score 5 goals a game to win a match.

Reaching to go all the way back to our lowest point last season for proof that we don’t finish enough. Forget the reduculous lead we’ve built on GD already this season. Forget the stupid amount of records our goals are breaking. Forget our star man hitting 150 in crazy quick time despite him having the goal scoring burden shared out more than ever. Let’s just cherry pick a shit game that we scored two in as proof.
Tracking back is overrated.

Keep digging Nige. You never answered the question of whether you've played the game. I think we can take it as a no.

Your argument is like saying that Rory McIlroy should have won every golf major. All he had to do was make more putts.

If finishing was easier everyone would be doing it. We have some of the best finishers in the world who practice their craft continuously. The great thing about football as a game is that the underdog can beat the better team "on the day" because they take their chances on a day the better side doesn't.

It happens. Accept it and enjoy your football.
Attack the argument of the person, not the person of the argument- except Carl.

You missed his last finish when you left to stare at the wall or something. Beautiful, confident finish.

And only a miserable cunt like you would bring this up after we score 6. Cheer up these are happy days
