    No, not everything is a conspiracy against Liverpool.

    City tried to take a very quick corner kick before the referee had given them the go ahead. Too eager and Referee being slow on the communication.

    I'd expect a decent bit of injury time here. Onana is taking his time a lot on goal kicks and when he catches it. Time wasting, one would say.

    It's been a disappointing game for me. City dominating possession as usual and United with the counter attack goal but outside of Onana I couldn't pick out a player who I'd say played well.

    I'm wondering if part of Ten Haag's gameplan was to give away corners, City have had 11. If so I gotta say it's not a bad idea, City very rarely score from corners.

    All comes from an embarrassing bit of football from Rashford. Just choose to fall over in such a great position. Stay on your feet and you’ve a shot on. Annoying.

    He's been terrible.

    Miss controlled and stopped 2 great counter attack opportunities. Completely mishit a big chance at the back post in the first half. And there was one other counter attack where Garnacho had lots of green grass to run into, but Rashford kept his head down running and didn't pass it. Ended up a Man City throw in.

    Brutal by Rashford. Absolutely shocking. Pathetic - not tracking baxk then putting Lindleof under pressure.

    Looked like he was terrified of taking a shot, and took the opportunity of playing for a far lower value free outside the box instead.

    Knew keeper couldn't go off the field and stopped the momentum.

    ETH threw in the towel with that sub. Anthony's first possession was a mile offside. The lad is not very good at football, is he?

    To be fair to him the ball should’ve been played much sooner.

    Same has happened with a few Garnacho runs where a quicker pass would’ve sent him through.

    Great player. Casemiro 5 years ago wouldn’t have got turned like that though.

    The strength of City, some key players can have off games - but it rarely tends to matter.

    That’s why Casemiro 5 years ago would’ve been playing for a much, much better team.

    Haalands goal scoring form in the league starting to get a bit worrying maybe? That’s 4 league games in a row where he’s missed sitters. They still had just enough elsewhere to nick a 1 goal win in 3 of those and drew the other. With him in form they’d have smashed those matches comfortably, but instead they’re all nervy encounters.
