I don't think there was anything in that from the replays I saw.Ridiculous non-call on Miki right on the edge of the box.
This is true. He is having a shocker and most of the controversy is against Man U at this point.Lee Mason is a horrible official

- Ridiculous disallowed goal
- Missed penalty call
- Repeated for emphasis - absolutely ridiculous disallowed goal. That's exactly what you want Ibra to do in that situation. He got his foot up and withdrew it before Valdes got there. Perfect goal.
Leicester gonna lose 3-4 players cuz AFCON
Agreed. I think that happened after my initial post, but with the shot gone, it's understandable why it was missed. But that's certainly at least a yellow in any other circumstance.I'd also point out the tackle in Martial in the box right after his shot he got hurt on. Defender is well late and comes with studs up high and is behind the ball anyway. Normally contact after a shot isn't called, but in this case that tackle is a guaranteed yellow or borderline red anywhere else on the pitch.
What a header! And Lallana's cross was a beaut!
My god is the pairing of Otamendi and Stones horrible. I put more of the blame on Otamendi because he's the veteran, but they are both lost back there. Otamendi is not good.
I don't see a single thing in his game to like. He's slow, he loves to dive in to ridiculous challenges and gives away an absurd amount of fouls. He's okay positionally, but does make a couple mistakes a game due to poor communication. I don't really understand why he was so good with Valencia but never adapted to England, perhaps it's the pace of the game that he struggles with. To me he looks a lot like a mid table defender, someone that would do a lot better on a team looking to absorb pressure and crowd the box as compared to a team looking to play a higher line and possess the ball.Otamendi has been pretty terrible his entire stint with Manchester City. Somehow he was good in Valencia and was named to the La Liga team of the year before moving, but I haven't really seen any evidence of that quality while he's been in England, at least not any consistently. I remember a lot of hype on this board about him when he came over there, hasn't really worked out.
Dominant first half from Liverpool. Didn't have a ton of chances but they were so good at shutting down City's possession.
Can is putting in some work. Klopp has these guys doing incredible work taking away easy passes.Dominant first half from Liverpool. Didn't have a ton of chances but they were so good at shutting down City's possession.
