Heavy legs there I think.

He's got his hands across his chest and is a foot away from Jota. You're simply an idiot if you think that's a pen.

No I don't think it's a pen. The issue was it was no fucking different to gomez which was also not a penalty 

[clangers]

I'll take that, decent result, hopefully TAA isn't serious. Nicely placed in the league table and a break coming up.

[Nelly-Szoboszlai]

Ladies and gentlemen, Liverpool will be playing four-four-fucking-two! 

 

Can't complain at a point. A fair result. City were poor. We were poor after about the twenty minute mark. The conditions didn't help. 

 

Thought Matip did well for us. Milner too, when he had to come on and fill in at right back. Klopp's tactics made it difficult for City to go from the back into midfield. He hot that bit spot on. We just didn't really offer enough going forward and the final ball was lacking. 

 

[Lee909]

Going to have to get used to this. With the injuries we are going to need to grind results at times.

For us, I don't think anyone was any good, bar Alisson really. Odd game. We didn't need to be good. 

 

Also, the Firmino thing is getting a bit ridiculous. People acted like he killed us all game, yet you can't tell me our other attackers were any better. We were worse without him.

Thought Matip played well myself. 

 

Shaqiri was woeful when he came on.

Gini man of the match for me...

Gini was awful today. Really poor. Lost the ball in dangerous areas on several occasions that pus us in difficulty.

[an tha]

Just about a fair and acceptable result.

 

We were ballsy and dynamic first half, leggy and indecisive in second.

 

Tick off another one of our hardest aways.

Good of us to give Gerard Houllier one last stint in the dugout for the last twenty minutes there.

We needed it to be fair. Team looked dead on its feet. Missed Thiago and Fabinho. Allisson, Matip and Gomez were very good. No was the only forward who was any good. Matip looked dead on his feet for half an hour but did well. Gutted that Shaq didn’t just twat it at the end.

[etho]

Matip and Gomez generally decent, Alisson absolutely brilliant, Mane good first half

[Anubis]

Milner was good defensively when he came on. Not so good going forward.

[Joey8FrogsLegs]

Very happy with that result after we ran out of steam and struggled to play through their pressing in the second half.

 

With a bit more accuracy we could’ve created plenty more chances in the first half, they didnt know how to stop us when we ran at them. 
 

Finish above these at the end of the season and I’ll be happy.

Matip was fine, yeah.

[Daisy]

Three of our toughest aways done. Only united and spurs away left of the tricky ones

[torahboy]

City know that they're the second best team in the league now. We offered them the  chance to go at us and they created practically no danger. Fuck knows what sort of an outfit they are without De Bruyne.

[Jairzinho]

Weird game. Thought everyone bar the keeper and two centrebacks was somewhere between not very good and utter shite. Yet, we got a point away to City and they seemed scared stiff of us throughout.

 

Thiago would have made a huge difference today. 

 

After the first half hour, the front three seemed to be playing completely independently of each other with predictable results.

 

Anyway, would have taken a point before the game.

[sir roger]

Looked like we were suffering for the exploits in Atalanta in the second half.

 

Ordinary performance, decent result.

[Rick Sanchez C-137]

Matip was decent in the tackle but shite when passing. I'd rather it that way than the other.

Not bad return having played Chelsea, Man City and Everton away and Arsenal at home in 8 games.

Yeah really solid start especially with a lot of injuries as well. 9 points from 9 including our two toughest games done in the Champions League.

 

Villa was a mental game but outstanding response.

 

We need to just rest a lot of the players now in the champions league. Tsimikas, Rhys Williams, Curtis Jones will get game time and let as many of the lads rest.

 

Trent's injury could be a blessing if he's okay for Leicester. Three meaningless games for England. He walked off okay but the worry is it must have been a big enough concern that he didn't stay on.

 

Fabinho and Thiago due back in the coming weeks.

[Bobby Hundreds]

Happy with a point. I dont like 4231 or at least starting with it it makes us run of the mill. Maybe its needs must but its shit.

[Halcyon Days]

Good point that, let’s hope the fans are back for their trip to our place.

[J-V]

Shay Given contradicting himself the tit

[Carvalho Diablo]

Carragher spouting dogshit again. Utter fucking blert.

[johnsusername]

Hopefully Matip, Trent, Ketia (don't snigger), Fabihno and Thiago all ready to go after the international break. 

 

Was there a problem with Alisson's shoulder?

How did we get fucked they missed the Pen and Canchelo’s was never a pen.

You're right, it was never a pen but nor was theirs.

 

Shitty end of incompetent double standards yet again.
