GWT: PL Matchweek 7

[hatterson]

How do you not put that in.

 

[koyvoo]

Why did that land on Fabinhos foot. Felt like an eternity for him to release that.

 

[KlausJopling]

That’s more a great block then a miss.

 

[koyvoo]

I wouldn’t say bent over liverpool at anfield are not going to rollover at some point a push was expected and City responded well actually

Feel like taking away all four scoring plays, both teams had a very good half, abs half that is below their standards.

 

[hatterson]

Also, it’s incredible how awful Ederson was on that. He mistimed going up to get the ball by so much.

 

[Duchene2MacKinnon]

What a worldly tackle by rodri it doesn’t get much better than that. Hope @Evilo is watching. Stupidly underrated player

I would agree still I think city have been the better team just no focal point in attack is harming them. Since KDB is on vacation still

 

[KlausJopling]

Sterling. You just came on. How do you not keep out running the defender.

 

[AB13]

Salah is the best player in the Premier League, there's not much doubt about that at this stage.

Decent argument for best in the world TBH.

 

[Burner Account]

Satisfied with a point

 

[Machinehead]

That was brilliant. Can't help but feel like we should have won but you can't complain against a side of City's quality.

We should have won last week. We would be top.

 

[Duchene2MacKinnon]

Seems like every week someone suggests some other player… the answer remains the same

James McArthur

 

[Havre]

Now that Haaland is injured he could be.

 

[AB13]

I don’t think Salah is the best player in the world. But he is top 5.

 

[Evilo]

Sorry, missed the end of the game

 

[Burner Account]

James McArthur

Was trying to think of a good cult response and I think this is as good as it gets

 

[robertmac43]

Missed the game but just watched it now. Amazing last 25 minutes in terms of entertainment value.

I definitely think Milner should have gotten a second yellow.

I would say that LFC fans will be happy with the point, City played them completely off the pitch in that first half as the away team that the game would've been over if they actually had a striker. Could've been three-nil by half-time IMO. I get all the Foden love by pundits, but his finishing was absolutely dreadful today.


E: Also no idea why or how Juve gave up on Cancelo. Brilliant player.

You've proven countless times that your judgement is poor though.

Lol, mate Romeo isn't even a starting CB for a mid-table club. I would pipe down with the poor judgement comments when you're clearly wrong. We can't even debate between Romeo vs White because one is a prime starter for one of the most popular clubs in the world and the other isn't even getting consistent playing time due to issues with his game.

Foden goes down easy but think Milner gets away with one there.

Nobody goes down easier than Bruno and Mane IMHO. Both are extremely talented, but them along with Maddison gotta be the worst divers in the EPL.

Decent argument for best in the world TBH.

Lewandowski is better. He sucks for the national team, but whenever I click on the stat sheet for Bayern he always normally has two goals per match.

I'm not happy at all with the point tbh. That's a mid-table mentality. They wouldn't have played us off the pitch if our two best RB's weren't injured. So I'm not happy about that as I think they wouldn't have scored at all if we'd had our RB. I also strongly believe we have a better 11 than they do. So actually I'm kind of annoyed. Henderson had a pretty bad go of it because Klopp had to use a different midfield three than usual, so the attack-defense balance was off and it didn't go that well. City also only got that point because of a great defensive play in their own right to save what should have been a sure goal.

So no, when you're trying to win the league, and it's early in the season, you should never be happy with a point. Liverpool is way beyond that now. I think maybe the team expended too much energy against Porto.

 

[Duchene2MacKinnon]

You definitely have the best 11 but given how you played a point was more than fair.

 

[Live in the Now]

Yeah it was definitely fair. But not ideal and not much to be happy with. Amazing goals though, it seems like Salah is playing on another planet.

Maybe it was the midfield rotation, but I thought LFC would've looked more offensively dangerous...especially at home than they did today. I totally get what you're saying about three points is the minimum against any team. That's good philosophy for winners, but there is no way that LFC should've deserved the win today. City played a very positive style of football and the reason they didn't come away with anything more than a point was because Foden and Jesus were terrible finishers. I wouldn't be happy with the way LFC played if I was a Reds fan, both goals were miracle plays from individual class than actual team-like build up and I don't think one RB would've changed the difference defensively.

 

[Power Man]

Great game, and luckily we got Peter Drury on the mic’ in Canada

Poor souls in England got Martin Tyler lmao
