Liverpool v Man City

A game that Liverpool must win if they want to stay on the title hunt. Never a better time for City to play at Klanfield and break that hoo doo.

Will City go ultra defensive using Walker at right back, Dino, Rodri and Gundogan in midfield or will we treat it as any other game again a mid table club?

No need to go too defensive...they're there for the taking at the minute. This is how I'd start;

.........Ederson
Cancelo, Stones, Dias, Zinky
..........Ferdi
Mahrez, Gundogan, Foden, Sterling/Bernado
.........Jesus

Think Pep will be cautious. We cant afford to lose the game but a draw wouldnt be desperate.

Cancelo Laporte Stones Dias Zinky

Stirling/Jesus

Strong starting line up needed, because despite the dippers’ recent form, it’s always their cup final when they play us!
Judging by today’s press conferences I think Klopp may just have given our team talk! Classless manager of a classless club.

walker not in the squad, is he injured?

Yeah, I've heard Walker isn't fit.

What is it with us and penalties against the dippers

A hand on Sala’s arm causes him to throw his arms up and crumple? How the hell did VAR look at that and deem it a foul? Yes he put a hand on him but he never pulled him down or pulled his shirt, cheating little shit!

Exaactly MCM - a cheating, diving little shit.  On the other hand thought we were outstanding in the second half.  Cancelo has really improved over the last few weeks along with Stones.  Foden was excellent and Gundogan - apart from the penalty miss was great too.  Glad we were up for it.  Their goalie was awful and gifted us a couple.  Should have been 5-0 but you can always count on Sallah with the theatrics.

Did Klippety get his glasses at OxFam?

That was a game of two halves. We were sluggish in the first half, I felt, and that penalty miss was shocking once again. But the tweaks Pep made in the second half woke us up a bit. Granted, Allison really shot them in the foot with some woeful clearances, but I’d put that down to us pressing him into the errors. Two decent goals from Gundogan, Razza has broken his Anfield duck and only conceded from the softest penalty ever. But I have to say, Foden was right on it and was unplayable at times. I’m glad he’s getting first team time, he’s a hell of a talent and I’m expecting other clubs to come sniffing soon.

The league is ours to lose now. Let’s hope we don’t!

Foden ain't going anywhere. This performance should nail Mahrez's future at City as non existent.

Did anyone predict that score?

Just you clever clogs
