Opposition fan forum gems

Highly predictable, but also unbelievable

[Pablo]

They all used to take the piss when we claimed Fergie used to pick and choose his own refs, now they're referencing it as fact to use it against us.

[Shaggy]

Two up against Leicester. They've barely skipped a beat since VVD got injured. Sick of the cunts.

Its the fear factor. The Rags had it, we had it for a bit and now its LiVARpools turn, teams go there already beaten.

They’ve still let 16 goals in this season, joint worst in the top 10. They’ve been pretty fortunate so far.

It's just taken as Red now that they will have at least one major slice of good fortune per match. That OG, I mean FFS.

Normally I'd try and make something of that but I said in the first 5 minute "I have zero confidence in Leicester getting anything out of this game". Really wanted them to prove me wrong but I was spot on, they never looked like scoring, that miss from Barnes too. That would be a no-look shot, top bins if that's City, no doubt about it. So annoying. Rogers goes to jelly when he plays Liverpool.

Another victory gift wrapped for them, will their luck ever end?

We are so far away from them, how did this happen?

They consistently get their best 11 on the pitch (majority of the time!) thats how, and they have the fear factor now. Leicester been beating nearly everyone this season and completely folded up against a half strength dippers, how do you explain that?

Seemingly favorable ref decisions each week also helps.

24 shots, 15 on target. We need about 80 shots to get 15 on target but as well as currently being a much better side than us, this game showed yet Again how they are officiated. From changing the Var official to then having a nailed on penalty against them not given and 15 fouls with zero cards. They rarely get bookings and we are carded on average per 4 fouls

[Shaggy]

Liverpool will win the title very easily I hate to say purely because every team bottles it when they play them .

Beat us 5-2 and look like the ****ing Dog and Duck against the dippers, couldnt make it up

Are the refs not allowed to book dipper players?

2 sitters missed. Against us everyone scores with one shot on target. F*cking cursed

dippers really are anti football, eleven men behind the ball.

We should be ashamed for settling for the draw at home to these **** scouse cunts

[wiw]

Lovely to read

[El Diego]

These people are unhinged, it's really not healthy to think like that.

[Shaggy]

Thank god we didn't make a move for Jota, looks 2nd rate

Teams just don't leave space like this against us. The dippers are going to retain the title, injuries or not.

I don't know how I can give Klopp any credit for most goals that Liverpool score, they just seem like either opposition blunders or moments of individual brilliance. There's rarely ever a trademark team goal.

If you were to ask me, I would say that Pep is a better coach than Klopp, but the footballing infrastructure that Liverpool have in place to support/supplement the manager is miles better than at City.

If opponents gave us anywhere near the space Liverpool get we'd smash teams for 10 every week. It is mad how open Leicester are, they would never play like this against us.

Another sample of corruption. They commit so many fouls without bookings. 12 fouls today. They probably average a yellow every 18 fouls. Us it’s 1 in 4. They can kick players off the park knowing they won’t get penalised for it. Same with Rags

It is bent, it has to be. Less booking obviously means less suspensions.

"Thank god we didn't make a move for Jota, looks 2nd rate"

[El Diego]

the reaction of Liverpool being good and not wanting to give them credit is unreal. I've never seen anything like it. At the start of the season I had Chelsea, United, Arsenal and Spurs fans think they'll finish above us. Loads of people were certain that Leicester would smash us, how? wheres the evidence to think they would? Why has no other team had the reaction from rivals that we have, is it cause they're upset they can't say "you've never won the premier leauge"? Cause that's all they had.

I don't think we have a trademark goal tbh. We score all the types. It's what keeps us so unpredictable.

Win a corner? Score from a corner.

Concede a corner? Score from the corner with a blistering counter attack.

30 pass move to bamboozle the opposition and pull them out of shape before scoring? No problem.

Harass the opposition into self ****ting mistakes? Just pounce on the loose ball, play it through and score.

Win a free kick? Score a free kick.

I suppose they're all trademarks in a way.

City's, trademark goal of passing to death, getting to the byline, pulling it back and tapping in accounts for so many of their goals, it's predictable. And so stoppable.
