[gmercer1]

That cunt Grealish should off for that

Deffo second yellow....yet we don’t even get a foul

[CTID Hants]

Oh Merlin!!

[Sideshow Bob]

fucking silva...

[mr_nool]

We can't miss chances like that!

[gmercer1]

Fucks sake

[carl_feedthegoat]

Nice one DS - without doubt one of the worst fuckign players in the penalty area for us.

Make that the worst .

[carl_feedthegoat]

Foden on for DS at half time !

[ayrshireblue]

The ref shat it because he would have had to send that slimy cunt Grealish off. And when last did a ref stop a game with a team breaking up the park for half time. He's a disgrace. Bent fucker.

Bernard isn't hitting the levels of last season? Any coincidence that he was dropped a lot at the start of the season and hasn't played that we'll, Sanè got dropped last season and struggled. Class man management

[FA cup winners 2006]

Love how in every game now the commentators all talk about “how to beat Man City”. Never hear it in any other matches...ever.

"How to beat Liverpool" is all I've heard all week in the media

Link to the sites?

BBC did a full report on "how to beat City" once.

Yeah I’d love to see these Liverpool stories?

Discussed at length before and at half time on the Genk match. Discussed more than once on Irish radio programme (off the ball) and discussed on MNF.

Play 3 at the back tight and close together to nullify the space for their front 3. Play with wing backs to stop the crosses coming in from their full backs. Play 2 up front wide and get them to run the lines behind their full backs meaning their centre backs spilt to cover behind the full backs. This leaves your midfield 3 against their midfield 3 which is their weakness.

Genk tried it and got done decent chances, only that their 2 men up top were useless and missed 3 1 on 1's in the 1st half

They're discussing how the team playing them can beat them in the studios before the match.

None of this then:

How many piss easy chances does DS miss ?

[CTID Hants]

RIGHT NOW RIP THEM A NEW ONE

RAHEEM

[gmercer1]

Get the fuck in

[PeterParker]

How good has this fella become?

Fuck me.

[Mase]

"lEts dRoP RaZ"

[Sideshow Bob]

good job raheem

[carl_feedthegoat]

Sterling did well there - he’s on fire !

[Beefymcfc]

Ref shit himself with Grealish, forgetting what his job was. Maybe the diving, time wasting twats might come out of their box now that they're a goal down.

Oh, and fuck you McPoinalot, you sound even more miserable now.
