Post match City

[Fosterbloke]

I still feel sick even though we won. No matter how many we win, those Chav cunts keep winning too. Now we HAVE to beat Chelsea rather than only need a draw which is continued pressure.

I do believe we can beat them but the stakes are so high that it won't be enjoyable, especially after seeing a two goal lead slip like that.

[TheElephantMan]

Whenever I've seen Chelsea recently they've looked terrible. On paper they're a really good team, but they can be very poor. I'm sure they will be really up for the game against us, but we can beat them.

Their goal was so lucky against Swansea, should have been saved properly. Should have been a draw despite having a man extra for 75 minutes.

Another day at the office

In the words of the great man, "Listen, this is gone. We go to Norwich, exactly the same. We go together. Come on!"

"Except for you Hendo..."

[Resu]

Poor guy

[Fosterbloke]

I think he was genuinely going for the ball but his trailing leg tipped his body further back, lifting his studs.

Take a look at some photos or slow mo video and you'll see it.

It was still a correct decision but Hendo is very unlucky there.

[EwarWoo]

Nah, he's lucky, could have been a proper horror tackle with the contact slightly different.

No intent or maliciousness there, but it was completely reckless.

Its not a major issue, not many players out there who never have a brain fart, but we have nothing to complain about.

Cop the ban and move on.

[Fosterbloke]

Yeah, he'll be upset with himself for sure but that's football.

Allen is fully fit and playing well so he's a decent enough replacement. I'm sure Rodgers has a plan

[SB]

Yeah feel gutted for Hendo but Allen is up for it I'd say.

Any word on Sturridges injury?

[Exiled_red]

After watching MOTD, we can feel somewhat fortunate in terms of decisions. Skrtel's handball and Sakho's challenge were both giveable, as was Kompany's challenge on Suarez

That said, the first 40 minutes is as good as I've seen us play and credit to Pellegrino for the Milner > Navas sub, the impact was massive




Does anyone have any links to the after match interviews? Was expecting more from MOTD

I don't think Skrtel's handball was deliberate he was using his arms to jump in a crowded penalty area and his arms are above everyone, but for me there's no intent to punch the ball away as was suggested.

The Sakho challenge on Dzeko was rash and should have been a pen if he'd gone down when the contact came and not afterwards.

Similarly Suarez should have had a penalty for the foul by Kompany

Also MOTD showed that there was contact between Demichelis ad Suarez when City were calling for a red card, so that should have been a foul.

Overall I thought the ref had a decent game for me the only two incidents he should have given were 1 pen each and he gave neither so that evened itself out.

Any word on Sturridges injury?

Don't think it looks good I'm afraid. I fear he'll miss our run in.

If he's out, I'd play Sterling with Suarez up. Sterling's pace will be crucial if Sturridge's out.

This is a true story.....


When they made it 2-2 I couldn't take it....I walked out the pub and went for a little walk....for about 10 mins or so.....


By chance I ended up outside a church, just by the pub...I stood there lol looking at the church and ****ing prayed.


After my pray, I needed a piss and thought ****, I'll have to walk back the pub....so I walked the hundred yards or so and as I did some lad came running out the pub acreaminf with joy as we had scored the 3rd


So thank me, thank god, thank coutinho, it was unreal

Leg wobbler

[Pablo]

It's mad this it feels like this was the game that won us it. In reality, far from it. The Chelsea game will be even bigger than this.

As Gerrard said. This one's done. At Norwich we go again.
