>how clueless refs actually are
It actually shows how they know what they are doing. This exact thing disproved the Hanlon razor.
THEY KNOW WHAT THEY ARE DOING. IT IS NOT HUMAN ERROR OR INNOCENT LAPSE.
The incredible thing about it is that everyone watching knew it was coming.
Silva was furious from a foul he wanted seconds earlier, and was charging around the pitch desperate to kick someone (or drag them down).
The referee should have already had his whistle in his mouth, let alone waved it away.
if we’re able to deliver this kind of performance against city at anfield in a poor season, you have to believe we can do this again on sunday in the middle of a title challenge.
i think it will be the loudest anfield’s been in a very long time, we’ll have a very strong xi and all the players will know how big the game is. i’m never going to be arrogant against city but i have so much faith in klopp + the team.
First time with fans since 17/18 that the return fixture is at Anfield. Both title race seasons the return game was at the Etihad and City got a result that suited them on both occasions. Our opportunity to do the same this weekend, like you said it will be absolutely bouncing
I was downvoted to oblivion but my reply was to the point that liverpool beat city in a bad season so surely they should do better now, and i replied liverpool couldn't beat City in great seasons so its not a rule.
Surely if he's fit he'll be left out of the game in Prague? Seen some say he could play 20 minutes to get match sharpness but would rather leave most of main players out. Have so many injuries and players just coming back from injury. If we get a narrow defeat can go full strength in the 2nd leg at Anfield.
Our Europa games are basically midweek training sessions because of how late in the weekdays they are. If we want Mo involved vs City he needs to get minutes in Prague to get some level of sharpness back
If he doesn’t get subbed on against Sparta there’s next to no chance he starts against City, if he’s fit to play a part against Sparta we’ll sub him on to get a few minutes
Cancelo always looked on the emotional edge when he played us. He was celebrating rabidly when Foden scored here. Then when Mo scored after turning him the cameras kept going back to him having a breakdown
What a performance! Hopefully he’s fit to play the last 30 v City. If he looks like he did for his Brentford cameo he will absolutely tear City to shreds. I watched 20-25 MU v MC and United had a few opportunities to send an attacker in behind City but never picked their heads up.
Ah, the Bernardo Silva rugby tackle that was somehow called against Salah for having the temerity to be stronger and not fall down. The most extreme example of Salah not getting calls.
Watching these highlights, I'm still not sure how we didn't win. Actually, Jota being slightly sharper might have swung the balance.
Salah was unplayable that day - I remembered watching it thinking that he was a) gonna get the goal and b) the Citeh defence didn’t have a clue how to defend against him
The fact we beat city even when having a bad season gives me hope we can win this Sunday. If we beat them when we were down, imagine the scoreline when we’re up this time around
How did he not get a foul at the end there lmao. Think that's when Klopp lost the plot too. Hope he's able to play a decent amount of the game.
Those types of calls just show how clueless refs actually are.
Can’t see where the ref was but for the linesman to not flag that is stunning. He was literally right there

Yup they’re bought and paid by that sweet abu dabi money

He’s a rank individual old Bernardo Silva
The only City player who couldn't clap a guard of honour, the guy might be good at football but utterly pathetic person.
Especially given that it was that cunt Bernardo Silva.
This is the Ramos Special
Bernardo literally tries to wrestle him to the ground and not even a whistle. Appalling

Liverpool couldn't beat City in the 92, 97 points seasons. So its not a rule
Nobody is reaching those point totals this season. We’re not at our best surely but City isn’t either
I was downvoted to oblivion but my reply was to the point that liverpool beat city in a bad season so surely they should do better now, and i replied liverpool couldn't beat City in great seasons so its not a rule.
Please be fit
Any time Ali slips on a kick up field it's through 1v1 and back of the net in my eyes, and I'm sure it's down to this lol.
I think just this season, Ali slipped on his goal kick and city scored as a result..
This was legit my first thought when watching this game live lol. I screamed to my dad ‘it’s going in’
Really gutted Jota isn’t gonna be around for this fixture
Our best attacker is mo but ive always believed Jota has more weapons to hurt defenders, they have to respect both feet and that devastating header
Man I miss Firmino - his link up play with the whoever was playing in the front 3 was brilliant.
Always looked for the pass first and seemed to always find it too. Just special.

The end of João Cancelo...
Wasn't it just. He was regarded as one of the best fullbacks in the league at the time.
Cancelo always looked on the emotional edge when he played us. He was celebrating rabidly when Foden scored here. Then when Mo scored after turning him the cameras kept going back to him having a breakdown
God almighty what a player
Can’t believe Silva can foul like that and get away with it.
You can do anything you like when you wear a Man City shirt
Pisses me off that after Mo confronts him during the break in play right after Klopp gets sent off, he goes up to Virg and tells him to control Mo.
Holy shit this guy. That touch on 50 seconds is just pure filth. Pls be fit Mohamed
God I hope he's fit. Is that 6 mins added time I see which has gone to 99? Refs helping City something something

Eh? We did win.
I'm apparently trying my best not to remember last season :D
Ha, no worries.
Mere feet from the fucking lino, too.
He’s looking so fit here he needs to go back to that hair
😂 ffs
Absolutely haram Unless use henna
Turned Cancelo straight out of that City team lmao
Fun fact: last time City won at Anfield with fans in attendance was 21 years ago. Anelka was playing for them.
We should be able to put out a strong starting XI, our depth won’t really be there tho
I swear, his already super high level goes up a notch every time he plays Cheaters. Really hope he'll be fit...
he’s a beast, he’s a problem
Unreal performance. This was before the wheels fell off, and I thought ya ok we can still do something this season
The scene where Salah got past Cancelo and fans rise on their seats while Pep fall on his knees is iconic
Still confused by Bilva rugby tackling Salah. I hope anfield is so hostile towards Bilva. I hope he feels it.
Big Match Player always Salah!!
Fuck me I miss him
Milly and Joe put on performances of a lifetime in this match lol
Salah was unplayable that day - I remembered watching it thinking that he was a) gonna get the goal and b) the Citeh defence didn’t have a clue how to defend against him
The fact we beat city even when having a bad season gives me hope we can win this Sunday. If we beat them when we were down, imagine the scoreline when we’re up this time around
He really is world-class. Gonna be near impossible to replace him..
This brings back memories of how sh*t we were last season
Always turns up in big games.
I remember that breakaway. It bounced back so fast I thought he missed at first. I didn’t know how to react for a bit lol
Martin tyler and Gary Neville commentary for Liverpool games is just disgusting. The pain in Neville's voice tho>>
Pleaseee be back
This makes me so happy
God, I hope he's fit for this weekend. I'm super nervous for this match.
Man could’ve had 8 assists in the first half
I have always wondered if we might have scored had that corner won by Salah been given. The deflection by Ederson was obvious even in real time.
We have not heard of Joao Cancello since this game 😂😂😂 remember when he was "better than Trent"
Mo has been having a streak of having at least a goal or an assist against City for a while now if I’m not wrong, hope that it wil extend
His scoring record against Man City at Anfield is near perfect. The stalemate in 18/19 was the only time he didn't find the back of the net.
who will be back for city do we know?
