Can I just say Bobby Firmino is the Fcuking Man!

Yes you can and you would be 100% correct.

Just saw the Pep interview.

Treble winner, best in the world, and he's losing his mind because of us.

I can only put it down to the fact the world took a lot more notice of our CL victory than his team's Treble, and he just can't handle it.

remember, he's used to being beloved, revered, and almost unquestioned.

Did Pep seriously just use his post-game interview to complain about Adrian coming off his line to save Abraham's penalty on Wednesday night?

yes, but in fairness I can understand it... I think he was just pointing out the inconsistency of the checks. He pointed out the keeper not being on the line which wasn't checked, but also pointed out the handball that could have been a penalty for us which was also not checked.

Love Klopp

"I said to Adrián, Well done . Ali did the same. It’s a goalie thing to do at Liverpool."

Muahahaha

Klopp seems to be living rent free in Peps head for some reason

In the past you’d be worried about Liverpool getting this slight advantage and then not doing the business against a smaller team next week so hopefully with this team and manager we’ve moved past that.

Week 2 and we're already in the chokezone

Ox has shown in the last 2 games some very promising moments.

Great through ball to Salah vs Chelsea & today vs Southampton. Excellent tracking of Redmond in the 1st half today showing great mobility. Very good in the 2nd half as well clearly growing in confidence.

He is doing well considering he tore every ligament in his knee & even his hamstring too. Stays fit & he really will be like a new signing.

Osmosis Jones

Two nice goals:

Some really beautiful chances created today:

Adrian's great save (...call me critical but I still think he should be coming out to claim that with a catch or punch first time, it's well inside the 6 yard box

Andy's been spending some time with Firmino it seems:

van Dijk is way too cool:

Ox with the perfect defensive coverage:

Salah's two really nice back heels:

I only just remembered to have a gander at Blue moon-some extra tasty schadenfreude to be had from there tonight.

Seeing that got me thinking that he could become the more attack minded stand-in for the fullback role in place of Henderson.

Yeah as long as he's playing in midfield and not on the wing he can be nice cover for Trent when he gets caught up the pitch.

Is it just my imagination or did he actually start a game there last season? Can’t remember which one, but I have a vague feeling he didn’t shine there.

Ox is a vital squad member.

His directness from central positions takes a pace, strength and bravery that few have. It scared and hurt City the season before last.

He definitely played games as a wingback for Arsenal, it was his post-game interview after a game at left back that he said he wants to move into midfield and be the next Stevie G.

Henderson played as the right back in the game against Leicester.

Its impossible to judge intention so the rule as it is now is the most sensible option.

Yep but my point is it's nonsense.
We love the game, millions love the game. Stop introducing these new rules just to try appease the twitter fools.
We all have played/play the game, sometimes the ball hits you..not fair to call handball in every situation.
One day a major trophy will hinge on this...i hope it's not us on the receiving end

Im delighted City dropped points today.

I was worried he'd try to put foot on it and miss and it would roll into empty net, but something as bad happened. But still if you play it wide of goal it's not likely to end up in net with a deflection .

What were you actually on about here? If he plays it wide of the goal and the keeper puts his foot on it, smashes it off the striker and into the net is different to what happened, how?

BorneTobyWilde

If Adrian received ball wide of goal then it's most likely that when Adrian played his clearance on to Ings foot that the ball would have went wide, not into the goal. Anyway we won, doesn't matter now.

It wouldn't though. The reason you play a backpass wide of the goal goes back to the old days of **** pitches and the chance of the ball bobbling when the keeper swung at it and dribbling into the net (think Gary Neville's OG for England a number of years back). There's no issue playing a backpass like VVD did on target. Adrian is (presumably) right-footed so playing it wide of the goal on the near side would have made it more difficult for him as he either has to play it left footed or take a touch to get it back on his right foot.

I hate pass the buck football, and VVD should have just dealt with it. Might as well clear it yourself. Klopp said as much after game, '' why are defenders playing it back to Adrain who has a swollen ankle and can't kick'' makes no sense. I get your point though.

Osmosis Jones

Absolutely nothing wrong with VVD's pass, Ings isn't even in the box when Adrian receives the ball he had all the time in the world.

If his ankle is that bad why was he picked?

RugbyLover123

Adrian was being cocky, trying to play the more difficult pass. You can’t really blame him for how his last 2 weeks have gone.

Vvd backpass wasn't on target. He played to Adrian whose position was centre of the goal. If Adrian missed it it would have went wide. If Adrian was standing wide of the goal I'm sure VVD would have passed it there.

Turtyturd

The surprising thing here is people taking the VVD thing seriously.
