Liverpool vs Manchester City - Anfield

[smat]

Yaya Toure's having a pretty poor game with the ball. Also doesn't look that up for it off the ball.

 

[Liverlad]

Missed the first half hour because of work, but we have looked good in the 15 mins i caught, look very dangerous going forward, can see a few more goals in this one.

 

[mistermagic]

Lovren has actually looked pretty good. Not as bad as the critics suggest.

 

[silkyman]

How close is this to the side that played on Thursday? Tired legs creeping in?

 

[G-Dragon]

Apart from Coutinho and markovic everyone played. Time to bring on Sturridge.

 

[mistermagic]

Second half has been gash.

 

[G-Dragon]

WHAT A HIT SON! WHAT A HIT!

 

[This Charming Mike]

Another brilliant Coutinho goal. Special player.

 

[G-Dragon]

Coutinho really has added goals to his game this season.

 

[Jamie_SFC]

Fully deserved.

 

[DarkSithLord]

Two superb strikes from Liverpool today. Worthy to win any game.

 

[G-Dragon]

Thought I would never say this but Joe Allen has been fantastic today.

 

[G-Dragon]

ffs Sturridge!!!

 

[silkyman]

Well, bollocks.

 

[G-Dragon]

Great win, everyone played well. Top 4 here we come!

 

[IanH]

Coutinho really has added goals to his game this season.

He scored 5 in 37 last season, and this year now has 5 in 38.

 

[smat]

Deserved win for Liverpool.

 

[Pagnell]

Get the fuck in. Coutinho, legend in the making.

 

[allouso]

Get the fuck in!

 

[G-Dragon]

 

[GodsGift]

Get the fuck in!

And to think you wanted Brendan out, eh?

 

[G-Dragon]

He scored 5 in 37 last season, and this year now has 5 in 38.

We have only started playing well this season around the second half.

Liverpool completely outplayed and outworked them, same as they did last season. Good old fashioned hard work won them the game, they wanted to work harder than City did, they sprinted everywhere. This was a side coming off the back of a arduous match on Thursday, whereas City stood still for 90 mins and watched Barca pass them around on Tuesday. They look a shoe-in for the top 4, for me they seem to be playing the same way they did on the run in last season.

Pellegrini is hapless, the dinosaur still has no idea how to set a team up in a big match. It's right what was said, playing so open is enough against the cannon fodder of the Prem as the likes of Silva and Aguero will do enough to win you the match, but it won't wash against decent sides.

 

[Red]

Great game with 3 top class goals. Lovren played well and Allen was outstanding today. It was probably costly, but Rodgers resting Coutinho and Henderson seems to have paid off.

 

[smat]

City's record in the big games this season is poor. 2 out of 6 points against Chelsea, 1 out of 6 against Arsenal, 3 out of 6 against Liverpool. Only just squeaked through at home to 10-man United. In fact they weren't great in them last season either, were they? Maybe Pellegrini's still not got to grips with them.

 

[allouso]

And to think you wanted Brendan out, eh?

Chuffed to be proved wrong!

 

[silkyman]

Ho hum. Looking at it from a neutral perspective, one of the great things in football is when one of the alsorans gets a chance to beat one of the big boys.

3/10

You've already blown that chance in the first leg though mate.

 

[Bilo]

Thought we played well, deserved the win. Well in the run for top four now, but we have to get 6/6 against Burnley and Swansea before a really tough run of games.
