I would rather watch with commentary in a language I don’t understand than listen to Neville. His brown nosing is more nauseating by the week. If Liverpool win the trophy he’ll be joining them their celebrations in a full kit and shinnies
Arabic commentary improves every football match.

Klopp putting pressure on referees after the game. Have any other manager got away with that? No. Because you are not allowed to do that.

I know no city fans (they don’t really exist). I know a lot of Arsenal fans who would be very smug. Give me city any day. At least we know the cnuts cheated their way to it and it doesn’t count.
Don’t care about the views of the people I know. The reality is that our Manchester rivals are dominating the Pl and winning trebles. I care more for the club’s history and rivalries, than what some people I know would say / think.

Two teams with extremely good work rate and a high tempo. But you got to wonder, where is this quality that the pundits speak about? Mistakes decide these games as much as anything else does, but you would think these are clashes for the ages.

Doku clearly got the ball first.

If it's not a penalty for Garnacho the other week, neither is this.

City were very lucky to get something here, that should have been a Liverpool pen at the end and there was also Mac Allister being dragged back earlier and Ake's foul on Salah that could easilly have resulted in penalties as well.

I'd agree with that in general but then it'd be 4 titles in a row. For the 'greater' good of football, Arsenal winning is better for us overall even if it sucks ass as a Utd fan. Well everything but Utd winning still sucks but there we are.

We should have lost that 3 or 4-1. For once its us getting away with one vs Liverpool. Huge boost for them, playing us off the park with 3/4 of a team. Could have stolen it at the end but we didn't even deserve a draw.

KDB and Alvarez were fecking awful today.

I don't think so. The contact was minimal really and he'd gotten the ball. Maybe in real-time, outside the box the ref would have been fooled into giving a free.
Actually looking at the replay again, Mac did seem to lead with his chest

Both your fullbacks were really poor too.

Alvarez really stood out like a sore thumb though.

Only one victory for Man City in seven league visits to Anfield since Pep Guardiola was appointed City's manager in the summer of 2016. The one win was during covid without a crowd. Also in Pep's time as City manager they lost 3-0 in Anfield in a Champions league Quarter final.

Man City's poor run at Anfield goes back well before Guardiola's arrival. Across their 26 Premier League trips to Anfield, City have recorded only two wins.

Won't be a bold prediction to say Liverpool will avoid defeat today and knowing them they'll get the rub of the green in doing so.
Draw no shock result. City's dreadful record continues in Anfield, though I am surprised Liverpool didn't get at least one penalty late on with Oliver in charge. Correct call on both, Salah dive and got the ball first on the other.

Haaland's limitations on show today.

Bit too much hugging and smiling going on for such a fierce rivalry? Odd.
You’d have a point if they hadn’t gone at each other hammer and tongs for 100 minutes. Shows you can fight to the last breath but still be gents afterwards. Same as they do in the rugby.

Nah he kicked him. You see free kicks given all the time for that.
Yes you do. You also see freekick being given for what Ederson did against Rashford and we didn't get anything.

He kicked the ball and then MacAllister went into him.
