Man City vs Liverpool - Premier League (20/21 - Game 8)

[cannotmakeit]

We haven’t worn there for the last 3 games. So a draw is to be expected.

[Norbs]

Fair result in the end.

I don't agree Slinks, we were robbed a penalty

[Robbie-9-Fowler]

A point isn't a bad result given we were sloppy in the final third, started to look leggy and lost Trent.

I expected much more from them. They seemed flatter than in previous seasons. Still had possession but didn't look too dangerous to be honest.

Just hope its a minor injury for Trent but anything like that is usually a few weeks at best.

Were we?

[Tribute]

Disagree. They had a pen, Alisson made a great save in the first half plus the Jesus header. We had good chances but they weren't that clear cut for me. We'd have lost this on a different day and this is a good result.

Just have to agree to disagree. We fluffed far too many chances in the first half by delaying and trying to walk it in... didn’t even get to a shot in some cases. We were far the better team in the first half and failed to make it pay. Let them back into it and they didn’t look back...

[baitman]

Feels like we have bottled a good chance.
Their defence wasn't super solid and yet we were very sloppy when we got near their goal.
Cancelo was their best player.

[Buzzo]

No chance the Jesus goal is anywhere near that Bergkamp goal. That is one of the best goals ever.

[frank the tank]

Next matchday is huge. We host Leicester then spurs play City.

We win our game and its been a very good start to the season

[fidget]

Good result with three world class players unavailable.

[BootRoom]

On the Gomez pen, I'd be furious if that was against us and not given; it looked a clear-cut pen to me.

[S-RED]

3pm sat for us for the leicester game, followed by spuds/****ty 17:30

[S-RED]

or will they now be moved as the box office stuff is being canned?

[rodo]

think it stays as it is

[Exiled_red]

Over all it's a fair result, perhaps we could have had it wrapped up with more clinical finishing in the first 30mins, but we were very poor for much of the 2nd half. A draw away at city is a good result.

My main concern is getting through the season without the players burning out and picking up injuries, and the toll it takes on the squad and the understanding that has been a big part of the way we play. I know the conditions were difficult but our players are supposed to be some of the fittest in the league and some of them looked out on their feet towards the end of the game, and we're not a quarter of the way through the the PL season yet.
