I'm getting annoyed by all the online whinging saying City didn't turn up at all. Liverpool got an early goal, nullified their threat and did a solid defensive job imo

ppl cannot grasp that opponents affect how teams can play, its always a case of losig teams just not trying hard enough to be present

Klopp has beaten Guardiola more than any other manager iirc. City have always been vulnerable at the back, it's just that most teams aren't able to get the ball off them for long enough to find out.

Was watching on a shitty stream but iirc at least 2 of the goals last night came from City losing possession cheaply

klopp has the best record against guardiola, who has only beaten him 5 times. but yes, the more general point is that pressing makes your opponents look bad. i've seen a few ppl say how spurs' victory over real was diminished bc real were off the pace without considering what that really meant

I expect Mourinho was watching with interest last night

Number None, Thursday, 5 April 2018 15:53 (six years ago) link

and will completely disregard anything he might have learned about beating City

Number None, Thursday, 5 April 2018 15:54 (six years ago) link

Wonderful free kick from Golovin.

Excellent finish from Ramsey too. Both teams are appalling defensively but CSKA much worse.

really hoping for a couple of early City goals to come in, just to keep my interest up for the rest of the game.

nothing wrong with that City goal

Number None, Tuesday, 10 April 2018 19:32 (six years ago) link

That was relentless

groovypanda, Tuesday, 10 April 2018 19:33 (six years ago) link

Idk, did Milner play it backwards?

Wag1 Shree Rajneesh (ShariVari), Tuesday, 10 April 2018 19:33 (six years ago) link

liverpool could've gone to pieces after that goal but they've just about hung on in there. can't see them going out at the moment tbh

i'm surprised to see your screwface at the door (NickB), Tuesday, 10 April 2018 19:34 (six years ago) link

yeah it deflected off Milner

Number None, Tuesday, 10 April 2018 19:36 (six years ago) link

otamendi flopping around on the floor like he'd just been tasered though, that was good that bit

i'm surprised to see your screwface at the door (NickB), Tuesday, 10 April 2018 19:36 (six years ago) link

Liverpool are in a good position, but there's definitely a sending off in it for them. I'd keep an eye on Alexander-Arnold

Number None, Tuesday, 10 April 2018 19:37 (six years ago) link

Pep's been sent off

Number None, Tuesday, 10 April 2018 19:41 (six years ago) link

i'm surprised to see your screwface at the door (NickB), Tuesday, 10 April 2018 19:51 (six years ago) link

had a word with the ref at half time about the disallowed goal i think

vermicious kid (Noodle Vague), Tuesday, 10 April 2018 19:54 (six years ago) link

see ya city

i'm surprised to see your screwface at the door (NickB), Tuesday, 10 April 2018 19:57 (six years ago) link

vermicious kid (Noodle Vague), Tuesday, 10 April 2018 19:57 (six years ago) link

i'm surprised to see your screwface at the door (NickB), Tuesday, 10 April 2018 19:58 (six years ago) link

Roma 2-0.

Wag1 Shree Rajneesh (ShariVari), Tuesday, 10 April 2018 19:59 (six years ago) link

Glad Chelsea are so shit as Spurs will be facing a pretty pissed off City on Saturday

groovypanda, Tuesday, 10 April 2018 20:04 (six years ago) link

they weren't pissed off before this game?

Number None, Tuesday, 10 April 2018 20:06 (six years ago) link

hey, spurs could make it four defeats in a row

ogmor, Tuesday, 10 April 2018 20:07 (six years ago) link

Number None, Tuesday, 10 April 2018 20:09 (six years ago) link

Wag1 Shree Rajneesh (ShariVari), Tuesday, 10 April 2018 20:23 (six years ago) link

Roma 3-0

Buff Jeckley (Tom D.), Tuesday, 10 April 2018 20:23 (six years ago) link

Buff Jeckley (Tom D.), Tuesday, 10 April 2018 20:36 (six years ago) link
