vs Man City HOME

[danperkins]

Jones off, Hendo in there and being on a CB. Midfield has been ****. We've been bad but city have been awful.

I have to say taking the decision to not watch the game is so much better for my state of mind. By now I'd be angry and generally miserable to be around. Now I'm fine. First step to removing myself from the charade.

If you're relying on the comments from Perkins and co are a true barometer of how this game has half has gone then you're selling yourself short.

Best half of football we've played at home for a few months.

[Venton]

We've grown into the half, we were really poor at the start, and have got better, but never really look like scoring, you feel that that it'll be the type of game where they will nick it.

I'd say that if it weren't for Salah's header and Firmino's shot.

[danperkins]

City don't need to win this, a draw here and win other game in hand over united and their 6 ahead.

I've read a few on here and some on BBC. Few saying good few saying rubbish. I'm assuming it's somewhere in between.

Regardless this isn't football anymore.

I'll watch when the fans are back.

Going balls out to win this game is daft. Just saying.

[Buzzo]

I think Gary Neville comes to more accurately on where we are at than any other commentator or supporter. He seems incredulous that we’d just be ‘giving up’ on the title.

There are a lot of points to play for and a win here is achievable. Let’s go and ****ing well do it.

I never we should, I said City don't have to win a draw is a good result for them whereas we absolutely have to win.

It’s all made for a very strange game. It is all a bit of a non event.

My mood has been altered for the better by being handed a papa doble during the half.

It's February, there's plenty of time. I'm saying that desperately leaving ourselves open because we think we absolutely have to win doesn't make sense.

this. Been a terrible flat, dull affair.

[Rich]

I’d be tempted to bring Kabak on for Thiago. Move Henderson into midfield.

[Doc_Piptorious]

Let's go balls out to win this game.

Push Henderson and Fab up into the centre, push the full backs into the wide slots. Alisson can cover the sweeper position as well as being in goals

1-7-3 formation for the win

Him or Jones, midfield moving at a snails pace, no tempo. Hendo stepped in once and fired quick snappy pass to forwards.
