Liverpool vs Man City - Premier League (18/19 - Game 8)

[danperkins]

It is.

But the commentary is all focusing on us.

City have had one shot. Off target.

Yeah it's weird alright they've done nothing.

[Buzzo]

? We needed a last minute winner against PSG and Tottenham were threatening an equaliser. In another world at least one of those wasn't a victory.

We dominated both those games, and 'in another world' run out confident winners.

City are one of the most expensive squads assembled. Won the League last year playing what some pundits were saying was the best football they had seen.

I dont know what people expect from us? We aren't going to blow every team away, let alone good ones.

Are we playing as good as we can, no. Are we doing alright. I think we are. Honours even first half.

we've got good results and t9 be fair dominated some games but we really haven't clicked in to gear this season like we can.

[Buzzo]

Which is fair enough, we're the home team and genuine title challengers so would be more of a loss of points for us if there are no goals. We've moved on from being plucky underdogs.

Nah, not against the other main team challenging for the League. Obviously great to win, but also important not to lose. We've got some winnable games coming up.

We aren't playing high risk football. But, ultimately a point is ok. See what happens second half, and we need Mane and Firmino to hold onto the ball better.

Agree, we haven't been at our best yet. But the inquest into 'whats up with us' us is bull****.

Keita has excited in spells but his form has dropped a lot and I don't think he's up to a game played at this pace on the back foot.

[Fredo]

We need to stay composed. If it stays at 0-0, so be it. It's not essential we win this game. It's essential we don't lose it.

He needs to release the ball quicker, can't get away playing thst slow pace in prem. He's losing players alot too, hopefully gets into it in second half.

[dizzycat]

In theory I agree, but we are not good at playing out games in that way

[dizzycat]

Gomez should have got the city player booked for instruction

They're not saying that we should be winning this game though, they're saying we've not created enough (or anything), and as the home team in impetuous is certainly on us.

I'm cool with a point.

The most important thing is not to lose.

Fine but the intensity is down, and we've ground out some results, which isn't a bad thing, but isn't sustainable. Hopefully it will pass after the break.

Me too, just for the record.

Gini is growing in stature as a player, he looks to take more responsibility with the ball now
