Man City Away

[kalasoma]

That's all Pepe that is. We had the lead and then just gave it back, just like earlier in the season. Still, we should kick on from here. No more stupid mistakes. Jesus H.

[lamai]

Great performance all round. We look brilliant going forward. We need to sort of the stupid mistakes. We have still countinho to come if he is as good as he looks can you imagine what we will be like going forward next season!

[kalasoma]

Maybe its not all Reina's fault i've watched the goal again and though what if skrtel just followed the ball and shoots it away instead of asking reina to come out ??

 

Reina has no business being out there. Skrtel had that covered and has to run back to protect the goal that Reina should have been in. Definitely on Pepe that mistake. Our defenders had that under control in the last 15 mins, in my opinion.

[derykw]

We were Fucking brilliant today, totally bossed the Champions on their own midden.

 

Individual errors cost us yet again but fuck me we looked the business today. Excellent.

[zigackly]

I'm fairly sure that's the only option open to you, mate.

 

No, I could piss and moan, call various people a cunt, twist some statistics and derange various threads, but I'm choosing not to.

[KevieG]

there are signs of real progress which is what a lot of us wanted to see this season. Top 4 is a long shot but you never know. We've got a decnt run in and no-one else is showing much either.

 

Played the champions off the park today. Reinas brainfart shouldn't be happening at this stage of his career. Mindless stuff. Sturridge outstanding. Looks like a great bit of business.

 

Despite everything I'm optimistic.

Reina has no business being out there. Skrtel had that covered and has to run back to protect the goal that Reina should have been in. Definitely on Pepe that mistake. Our defenders had that under control in the last 15 mins, in my opinion.

 

100% correct

Similar to the home game with City. Great performance. Should have won. Would have won but for a ridiculous individual error. Seriously, Reina, what were you thinking of? Having said that it was a great finish from Aguero. Nine times out of ten he loses his bearings and prods it aimlessly wide or somewhere a defender can clear it but it's us and everything that can possibly goes wrong always does.

 

Would have been happy to be offered 2 draws from these fixtures at the start of the week but really gutted we didn't manage to win at least one of them. Lack of confidence rather than ability seems to be the main problem with this team and the boost a win in one of these games and the momentum it would have given us for the rest of the season would have been huge.

 

But plenty of positives to take from that game. Sturridge was outstanding. Thought Gerrard was maybe finished at the start of the season but it looks like it was just a bad patch as he's been brilliant recently. Thought Henderson was very good again too.

[kalasoma]

Sturridge outstanding I felt. My man of the match.

[JustTosh]

Great match, gutted by the result.

 

The progress of our team has been brilliant. Furtehr improvement and we'll be there at the very top.

[FrenchEyeGlass]

Hilarious this shite manager complaining we got everything and that the ref kept booking their players for everything.

 

We got 4 yellow cards. They got 2.

[shanks69]

Maybe its not all Reina's fault i've watched the goal again and though what if skrtel just followed the ball and shoots it away instead of asking reina to come out ??

but if skrtel doesn't see reina coming out he goes with aguero,but he sees reina so has to try and cover him.

[FrenchEyeGlass]

No, I could be Code but I'm choosing not to.

 

I simplified your sentence for you.

[fowler9]

fucking sick of Pepe gifting goals, god knows how many times he has done it over last few years

 

but that aside I'd have taken a draw before hand and we played really well, top quality performance from Sturridge and as a whole we were very good and without doubt deserved the 3 points

[DirkDiggledinho]

Gutted with that result.

 

That aside we were brilliant today, everyone right up for it, it really does bode well for the future, especially next season.

 

Next season will be our season, right? How long have we been fucking saying that now?

 

We were quite good today, but we've been having massive spazzes in nearly every game of real importance we've played for what seems like absolutely years. It's why we couldn't win the title under Rafa, it's why we couldn't seal the deal today.

 

Progress is great, but to me real progress is making the decision not to keep shooting ourselves in the fucking foot every time we look like succeeding. I'm tired of looking forward to next season. It'll only happen when we stop setting ourselves up for disappointment and just grab it.

[Fugitive]

That feels like a loss because we properly outplayed them and then threw it away with a stupid mistake. I feel gutted with the result.

 

On the plus side, we look very dangerous going forward and have the makings of a very good team.

[Johnny Cougar]

No, I could piss and moan, call various people a cunt, twist some statistics and derange various threads, but I'm choosing not to.

 

We alrady have Ulf, the mental Droid for that. You keep the fuck off his patch.

[Original202]

2 points from 2 very tough games, but it could and probably should have been 6. Very disappointing, which is a sign of progress I suppose. Need to build on this now.

 

Think the referee deserves a mention today, was very good in the home game against Newcastle in November and did well today. Lets the game flow and doesn't get involved unless he has to.

[Mathewbet1]

Sturridge - if he can perform like that week in week out we have a bargin.

[Guest Numero Veinticinco]

No, I could piss and moan, call various people a cunt, twist some statistics and derange various threads, but I'm choosing not to.

 

So really, you're the reason we're doing so poorly? Time to pull your weight, sunshine.

[gingerhulk]

Pepe doesn't produce point winning saves anymore, he makes point losing mistakes.

[Strontium]

Magnificent performance, our best of the season, keep that up and we won't go far wrong.

[zigackly]

So really, you're the reason we're doing so poorly? Time to pull your weight, sunshine.

 

Cunt.

[Fugitive]

I had my doubts about Sturridge but he looks fucking brilliant. He's got a lot more to his game than I originally thought. We look a nightmare to defend against now.

[mighty sweater]

It's almost as if we have to gift city a goal and a point when we play them these days so they have a chance of catching up Corned Beef Cheeks's other Manchester team.

Have been critical of Henderson but he looks to be coming good at last. Chased all over the park and used the ball better. Loads of optimism due to youthful nature of this team.
