Liverpool vs Man City, 17:30, BT Sports 1

Mignolet cool and calm
He can play, always could do that.
Shame he can't keep goal as calm

Osmosis Jones

Mignolet is only teasing Bravo

Madness... have you seen Everton this season? 50m is pocket change for City. They're buying a guy they think can develop into a top level player. Williams is not that player. If Stones was spanish and playing for Real there wouldn't be this narrative. People would just expect some growing pains. He's still incredibly young for a centerhalf.

He'll improve given time, and no doubt he was good 2 seasons ago at Everton. But for 50m I'd expect a lot more from a CB.

Mig thinks he's playing 5 a side

SlickRic

City look a bit of a shambles here.

Too many good players though for it to stay that way. We must score again.

Harry Palmr

Bravo actually looks a bit miserable.

Grayditch

Fair play to Mig. Saying that if that had gone differently, I'd crucify him.

blueser

Awful from us so far; it looks like we could out there until midnight (even after Liverpool have gone off the pitch) and we still wouldn't score. Very disheartening. If we're going to lose (and we will), at least go down giving it a go.

Osmosis Jones

Mane needs to keep going at Kolarov, he's got him terrified.

kingshankly

What a touch from lovern

happyoutscan

Wtf is Zabaleta whinging about?

RobertKK

Pepball is missing...Messi, Lewandowski, Muller, Neuer, a defense...

kingshankly

Emre is too hesitant in possession

Vicxas

Can needs to release the ball quicker

At 1-0 anything can happen.

Osmosis Jones

Really poor from Firmino, come on, lift your fcuking head up!

Harry Palmr

Booby F with a shocker

niallo27

Never seen a liverpool team with such little possession at home.

The amount of silly mistakes
Both teams so sloppy at the back

Vicxas

Firmino... What are you at....

Remember this is Liverpool we're talking about. Could be 5-0 Liverpool or 5-1 City at the end of this. First 10mins after half-time always shows what Liverpool has really shown up today.

kingshankly

Firmino is bloody awful

Harry Palmr

Booby F with another shocker.

Osmosis Jones

That's desperate, how can you step offside with a 1 yard pass. We play for 20 minutes trying to force a City mistake and when we finally get one we waste it, that may haunt us.

kingshankly

Firmino you absolute bell end

He's clearly not.. he's not playing great today but he's still liable to score/assist at any moment. but yeah... he's awful.. :rolleyes:

I mean he's awful today for Christ sake

GavRedKing

Sterling is rustled

BorneTobyWilde

Sterling rattled to the point of about to do something stupid

Harry Palmr

Well I'd have taken that at the start but I'd have preferred 3-0 Bobby!

Just realised I paused for 2 minutes earlier

Osmosis Jones

Our plan is clear since the early lead, limit City's chances and punish them for their mistakes, we've done the former well. It only takes one good chance for City to get back in this, and I'm sure they'll get that chance, we can't be wasteful with chances of our own.

Mr. FoggPatches

Really should be 3 up. But happy enough.

Punched the back of milners leg there at the end

We've been absolute pants.

But winning.

Not sure what game you're watching, City have barely had a sniff.

Raising a hand is dangerous.

rob316

the only thing I'm banking on is city can't be any worse in the 2nd half. Liverpool get an early goal it's game over.

Firmino having a shocker in front of goal does not equal the team being absolute pants.

We've been comfortably the better team.

Absolute pants?? We have scored one, kept a clean sheet and look more likely to score than City. Looks alright to me.

Richard Hillman

Pool are containing City, almost mocking them. City will fanny about in the midfield and give Pool another chance.

Sooner or Later

Well if anyone was wondering how we will adopt to playing in Europe that first half was a real statement of intent.

I would say we have been comfortable but you know there is a mistake waiting to happen to break our hearts.

He must get rattled often then

Berserker

Only question in this game is how many Liverpool are going to win by. City are a bore to watch. Liverpool are mocking them at times. Liverpool need to get another goal here sooner rather than later.

Man City don't tend to progress to far in the CL though

BorneTobyWilde

City will create a opening and take it I would thing.
We need to take advantage of our own chances too if we are to win.

I'd expect city to be much improved in the second half and klavan to be targeted.
This is a long way from over.

Osmosis Jones

Anyone else on the pitch.. Clyne can not get a goal.
