I think the city fans was singing the Gerrard slip song. 😂

1-0 Wiljnaldum. Great header. No pressure on him for the header.

What do you guys think is the best result tomorrow for City-Pool? Obviously a draw would be good, but would City winning be better to knock our so-called biggest rivals to the PL trophy this season? Then again, a City win could boost their confidence and set them on a streak. Who knows.

First a Draw, then City losing. 

I hate City and want them knocked out as soon as possible. Fuckin Arsenal had a chance to end them in that first half, but failed to do so. 

Need a Klopp masterclass right now.

McManaman is so annoying to listen to. Always moaning about anything. 

[Laylabelle 9,351]

Urgh sod off Liverpool!

You hate City more than Liverpool and you're rooting for them? Ewwww. 

[MrExcalibur100 7,124]

Pretty uninspiring game so far. 

[Special Juan 27,424]

I said it before we beat City, they are nothing special, 5-6 players short and massively over rated.

[Laylabelle 9,351]

Yeah don't think city are so much of a issue..Liverpool however..

[MrExcalibur100 7,124]

Mcmanaman should quit punditry and become a manager. He apparently knows so much about tactics and everything. Such a fucking arrogant wanker that guy. 

[MrExcalibur100 7,124]

Guardiola's team has no deep-lying playmaker. No one to dictate their possession from deep central areas. Maybe he should swap De Bruyne and Yaya Toure.

The way I see it. 

The sooner Man City are knocked out of title race, the "easier" is becomes for Us. Liverpool are a good side this year, no doubt, but I'd take my chances vs Liverpool in a title race, than let City/Pep hang around the race. 

Just the way I see it tbh.

I get were you're coming from, on paper, City obviously have better players. ffs, they've spent almost 400 million on this squad in the last 2 seasons. Guardiola is severly underperforming regardless of how anyone slices it.

Thing is though, Liverpool have one of the top 2 managers in the league and their playing style and intensity is so difficult for many teams to play against. With no European football distraction as well, they're a team that can keep on winning games till the end. I hope for this game to end in a draw.

I was thinking like this at first but Liverpool are looking pretty damn decent if you ask me.

[Leif 6,006]

I just don't think Liverpool have winning players. Great players in this day and age, yes, but that's in their feet and not in their heads. The players feel the inferiority complex that reeks from their fans. They will forever remain minnows while we pig out as the sexy tuna of the ocean.

[MrExcalibur100 7,124]

Toure is like a pregnant woman out there. You just have to laugh. He makes Fabregas look like Kante. 

[BoyBlue96 990]

Come on....City goal needed.

Understand 100% both viewpoints. 

Lets just hope we can keep this run going for as long as possible. 

Gonna be a fantastic second half of the EPL no doubt. 

Our nerves/hearts are gonna be in for a roller-coaster of emotions.
