Manchester City vs Liverpool - CL Last 8 (2nd Leg)

[Zapater]

Is 433 away from home really the ideal tactic away from home?

Pep in the stands for the second half.

Don't really have many other options. Squad is razor thin with everyone fit, let alone with the injuries and suspensions.

[Red_Polo]

One City goal that stood and shouldn't have, one that didn't and should have

Two poor moments from Karius
Brainfart from VVD
Lovren saved us with his hair
Robbo can't clear with his right
Trent needs help with Sane
Mane needs to check himself before he wrecks, well, US
Bobby and Salah struggling to make an impact
WHAT MIDFIELD??

Jurgen will be tearing into them now

[spud_gun]

That's completely ****ing amateur from VVD

I'm not even gonna apportion any of that on Karius

I would.

Karius should have hoofed it up the park

[SB]

Can't have a go at ox for missing from that angle after being central to our only decent 5 seconds of football in the 45 mins.

totally agree

It was but the ****ing keeper loves to throw it out and invite pressure.

[Exiled_red]

Given that we conceded within 2 mins I'm happy to get to half time at 1-0.

We need to keep it at 1-0 as long as possible we really don't want to let them get a goal early in the second half, so we need to make sure we are sharp when we start.

We need to get more onto the ball the midfield has been ****, I don't think I've really seen Wijnaldum at all in the game so far. But the problem is we have been in panic mode and just clearing our lines rather than looking to get the ball to our midfield or attacking players, which is why we've had next to nothing going forward.

[Buzzo]

Roma one nil up on Barca. Plus they have the away goal.

[McDermotX]

I would.

Karius should have hoofed it up the park

We can say that now but VVD looked for the ball at least on two occasions then, and let's face it, anytime in that situation in any other game.
Defender of his class should deal with that easily.

Should play to the whistle, and shouldn't be out muscled by that ****** in the first place.

Well yeah. But as was talked about pre match we don't change the tactics. That can be a strength and a weakness. I just feel Salah has been redundant in that half but the issue is more to do with lack of players.

Clearly we are crying out for a controller in that side and with Hendo and Can out we have no option. Wijnaldum is doing his best but we're being drilled in midfield, maybe the answer is in numbers.

I thought the throw to VVD was a poor decision. You could see right away he wasn't comfortable with it.

I think you have to. VVD told him not to do it, and so did Robertson.

[Exiled_red]

**** off Pep

[Leyton388]

Feel sick watching that first half. But for the post and a ****e ref decision we would be 3-0 down. Klopp needs to change something at HT.

[danperkins]

The problem is lack of bodies in midfield. All lads totally outnumbered..Klopp has to do something.

[Fierce]

That was offside, right?
