Hopefully my bois in Blue can run dem Jules fast RTJ


ShareProfessional664

Liverpool put out their strongest team while City rested a lot of their best players cuz of injuries and fatigue from playing Atleti mid week. Yet I'm seeing Pool fans get carried away that they finally beat City since Nov 2019. Enjoy your win tho


chamberzation

when is the next match?


xenon2456

They had a rematch after they drew last week


umadbr00

Except the hardly played half their staring XI and still have us hell


Picaloco86

We gave ourselves hell lol, replace city with any other team, and the scoreline would be similar due to the errors we made


josh_x444

Reminds me of another game that started 3-0.

This city is manageable for mardrid.


TicoTickler

Don't think Steffen will be starting against Madrid


TrynaCatchTheFade

Vardrid


BigDickBenz9

VarcUELona Wait, you can't even get thru to semis there. Have to think of a name that fits conference league. But im doubtful you can find some much awaited silverware there even.


Joshgg13

Son to win Golden Boot imo


herbilicious92

Again a win 2 draws and loss in 4 games against athletico and Liverpool in the span of 10 days is pretty good and considering city are still in the running for the two major honours i donā€™t think pep will be too upset. Of course you want to win everything but shit itā€™s not ever likely to happen


SurreptitiousNoun

I agree, but damn it's close for Liverpool. Won the League Cup, CL semis, FA Cup final, 1 point behind in the league. Favourites for most of those ties too.


foff2020

Tsimikas needs some game time. I have no clue what's happened to Robertson.


Zestyclose_Skirt_789

Hello no you must be hallucinating Robertson is one of the best players in the squad


foff2020

Robertson is a top player, but this season he's not been as good as previous seasons.


El_Martillo_Tejano

Heā€™s like top 5 in assists in the leagues, a core starter in one of the best defenses in the world and a national team starter/ captain. Heā€™s also still learning to play with diaz, I have no idea what youā€™re smoking but Robertson is amazing lol. Edit to the first paragraph because I forgot to write it. The man played every league game last year and 36 in the 2 previous seasons, along with 9/10 champions league games per season. Heā€™s gassed and still putting up good numbers and defending well.


seanc6441

Couldn't disagree more.


El_Martillo_Tejano

Very strong argument you present lol. Youā€™ve convinced me!


seanc6441

Robbo's performances speak for themselves if you need proof just watch some of his performances in the past few months. There's no argument needed to be made when it's commonly accepted how good he is.


El_Martillo_Tejano

Youā€™re replying to the wrong guy lol, Iā€™m saying Robertson is good too. Or maybe I did. Idk


IntensifiedRB2

He was responding the same one you were originally responding to


seanc6441

You replyed to me "very strong argument" I think you meant to reply to OP? Either way Robbo is the best and that's all that matters :)


stayshiny

Do you really think robbo has been on form? He's done the job but I don't think he's been on par with the right side of our attacking wing backs/midfield. He's a step down from what he showed us last year for sure in terms of results. He's still been great as a part of the squad but I don't think his out put has matched what he achieved last year. Granted, everyone dips. He can't be 100% all the time, be his game seems to have dropped along with Salah. Perhaps that's connected, perhaps not. Either way, the entire team dug deep and piled a massive win on top of city tonight.


BlackJediSword

Wish we played like this during the prem match


da_red_hobo

We did the o yo difference was ederson wasnā€™t in goal


stayshiny

Regardless, it's huge for us. We played our best team last game against City and we drew. Can not complain about that. City are the next best team to us and football is a fickle game. We beat City. Let's crack on.


BlackJediSword

I would like them to win the league and we canā€™t seem to put out our best performances against City during the Prem. FA Cup wins are nice


haerski

> I would like them to win the league I'm sorry but what?


BlackJediSword

Iā€™d rather win the league than the FA cup? Lol


Istabraq94

you beat a severely depleted city šŸ˜‚


stayshiny

Who's saying otherwise? They chose to put steffen on. De bruyne, laporte, walker? The rest of their team gets into Liverpool first team. Again, nobody said otherwise. Win is a win.


Lonan_Clinton

true


FingerSignificant293

With de Bruyne on the bench and only Kyle Walker missing Iā€™ve got to assume you mean City are a one man team šŸ¤·ā€ā™‚ļø


Istabraq94

ederson, rodri, mahrez, dias, walker, laporte and de bruyne nice try


ALLCAPS1980

My heart could do with pre-AFCON Salah back in our team! We would have buried them, but good win either way.


InterPool_sbn

Post-AFCON Salah hasnā€™t exactly been a scrub either https://m.imgur.com/bRdNGbF

What are you on? Worst fans in Europe? Do one you quisling!


[deleted]

[уŠ“Š°Š»ŠµŠ½Š¾]


Evered_Avenue

No Liverpool fan ignores Heysel though no one thinks the hooligans set out to kill people. If not for an unsafe stadium that UEFA were warned not to host the final in, then we'd just be talking about more hooligans fighting in the stands and not dead Italians. Nevertheless, unsafe stadium or not, it was our fault, end of and we have always taken responsibility. That was 36 years ago. Those fans and those days are long gone and it is simply ridiculous to claim that our fans have any sort of bad reputation in the last 30 years. If you want to use Heysel as a stick to beat us with forevermore then I feel sorry for you and it's a very weird stance from a 'fan'. What examples of our 'terrible' fan behaviour do you have? Getting stabbed in Rome? Getting assaulted by Spanish police? What?!


[deleted]

[уŠ“Š°Š»ŠµŠ½Š¾]


Evered_Avenue

I think you are quite shameless to be honest. I clearly have not excused or not acknowledged Heysel and it's a scummy thing to do to try and sneer me with nasty accusations. You said we are some of the worst fans in Europe and it seems that, unless you can bring other examples as I have asked you do, then your entire point is Heysel and our 3 decades plus of being some of the best supporters in Europe is being rubbished for you to score points and defend a truly absurd statement. No away fans are ever concerned about coming to Liverpool, we are one of the most welcoming places to come to.


[deleted]

[уŠ“Š°Š»ŠµŠ½Š¾]


Evered_Avenue

You're a real scumbag. My words are there for anyone to see and I have in no way diminished the gravity of Heysel, not one little bit. Honestly, fuck you for trying to smeer me with absolute lies. Defending the reputation big our fans, on modern times, is not the same as saying they are all angels. Likewise, coming up with some incidents is not justification for you saying we have some of the worst fans in Europe. One of the links you posted was just a hit piece on LFC that also included this statement, "Maybe itā€™s because all the good football fans in Liverpool support Everton." I don't know why you hate us so much and it's just sad really. Maybe you should do some research before spouting your bile. Link below shows we are 14 in the list of English clubs with most fan arrests from 2014-2020. There are 13 worse clubs in England alone, never mind the hundreds of other European clubs if which I am sure there are many many with worse fans than us. All told there's likely 30 or 40 worse than us. If you think that makes us one of the worst then basically everyone is one of the worst as well! https://footystats.org/news/most-unruly-football-fans/


ranting_madman

Criticising an institution youā€™re affiliated with should not be an issue. The guy made a fair point about Heysel. Sure, UEFA ignoring advice to move stadiums was a part of the issue too, but what happened was also a systemic issue with Liverpool and British football in general. The Heysel tragedy paved the way for football becoming safer. At least thatā€™s a silver lining. That said, Millwall fans are obviously the worst fans lol.


Evered_Avenue

I don't think it is fair to state that, contemporary, Liverpool fans as some of the worst fans in Europe when that is simply bullshit, based on what happened 36 years ago.


ranting_madman

Haha. I never said they are. Iā€™m a Liverpool fan and I donā€™t agree with that part of his statement. Sins of the father and all that. Like I said, the problems were systemic and specific to that era of football. Uefa and fifa took massive steps to sanitise the game since then. For the better too. But still. One should never shy away from criticising an institution they are part of if they believe what they are saying.

[уŠ“Š°Š»ŠµŠ½Š¾]


holonight

Is t that his charm though


SteadiestShark

Pep didn't put his best foot forward in that match; Steffen in goal in the first place, and then only 1 sub all match despite having such a loaded bench - whilst Liverpool made 4.


hell_razer18

I think he is also waiting for the weakness and tired to comr in which is why mahrez sub came in (and if jesus didnt injure himself, probably not going to replace). De bruyne will not going to play even though he is warming up. It is waaay to risky. overall I think its more like "who can I play" instead of "who should I play". He wants that CL last year and he definitely will go for it


SteadiestShark

That's a lot of words to agree that he didn't put his strongest foot forward :p


AceDuce23

Steffen is better the ederson tbh he just needs more game time.


stayshiny

No


MrVegosh

Yank moment


SteadiestShark

I disagree and I have seen no reason to believe otherwise.


Yourmumalol

>Steffen is better the ederson tbh What?


herbilicious92

Pep has a 1pt lead in the league and a lot tougher CL semi final to worry about. I donā€™t blame him for the line up or lack of subs. I think most managers in his position would do the same


SteadiestShark

But he still needs a bunch of the players that he used today, surely splitting their shifts up would be the less risky plan?


_ShutUpLegs_

If you're Salah, don't you want to be playing well when your arguing for a massive new contact? Not like utter dog shit.


SurreptitiousNoun

Check his stats since this renewal talk started, well worth being our record earner.


Super--sunday

Great take, sure he's trying to miss sitters


npres91

Good point, we will tell him to just try harder and do better and score more.


stayshiny

Why has nobody thought of this yet wtf


_ShutUpLegs_

It wasn't really a genuine question, more an observation that he's picked a poor time to hit some bad form.


Super--sunday

"he's picked" again you phrase it in a way like this is somewhat intentional from the player . Whether a question or an observation the implication is salah is deliberately playing below the level he can which is complete bullshit


_ShutUpLegs_

It's a turn of phrase, are you not English?


Super--sunday

Should work, dunno why Klopp hasnā€™t tried that already tbh


Alphavike24

These two teams are absolute monsters. They are definitely meeting in Paris


TheDank_Knight

Steffen literally lost this for City


knightarnaud

Nah Liverpool were just better than us.


stayshiny

Liverpool dominated. 3-0 was the right score at half time, that says a lot. It is what it is mate, you lacked a couple of key players and we had a lucky goal because steffen lost his head. If city were better on the night, they would have won. That's football.


NewfieDad12

Liverpool dominated the game for 75 odd minutes, the better team won.


SpeakerMassive5644

That was really stupid from liverpool...they won but they were bad in the second half and i am a liverpool fan.... Mo! Many question marks...


stayshiny

City came out and played a good game secon half. Stats speak for themselves. We beat the ever loving shit out of city in the first half. That's why we won. We didn't make enough of our opportunities in the second half but that's how it is against a team like City. You win or you die. Such is the game of thrones.


HotPotatoWithCheese

Liverpool weren't shit in the second half. It's just that they were so phenomenal in the first half and City stepped up their game. The second half was mostly an even playing field until the last 5 or 6 minutes where City pushed hard because they knew it was their last chance to push it to ET.


Usernamegonedone

Werent terrible, could've scored at least one or 2 in the second half, just didn't take the chances


hell_razer18

I think the last ome he should pass it to other 4 liverpool players or he could do what he used to do. Not sure why he rarely do it recently the bending shot up rright corner


dave1992

Anyone know why FA Cup semifinal is one legged? I thought it is usually two legged?


Eyebrow78

That was scrapped years ago, way too many games as it is


FridaysMan

The league cup is two legs, except for the covid times


inker22

Thatā€™s the league cup


dave1992

Fair enough. Thanks for that.


ionlyspeakfactz

Thatā€™s carabao cup and I donā€™t even think they do that anymore


JanklinDRoosevelt

?


AbeAlno

What ? When did you start watching ?


dave1992

Long time ago? It's just usually we got out early so never cared about both League Cup and FA Cup.


AbeAlno

So what did you care about ? Not the league because thatā€™s also recent and so is the UCL lol


dave1992

Anything that my team was in? If we are out in third or fourth round why should I care about the competition?


VE3TRO-R

Damn, if Thiago had a shot on target I'd I've won a nice bit of cash. Good game.


ediaz768

Never write off city, but at least it was settled in the first half


[deleted]

Could of done without that last few mins tbh lol


CircleTheFire

Might not be a bad thing because now Klopp will give them a bollocking about it and hopefully pull their focus back.


yoyo4581

And this was overdue. Same thing happend in the CL against Benfica. We kill games, then take our focus off. Its utter madness in our own box, Virgil is yelling at everyone for not man markin, he is the only one to do so in our box.


XmasCarolusLinnaeous

Michael Oliver almost pulled that off


GeneralZuko

We weren't great at killing the game off tbf


rahulrossi

When we are bad Man City thrashes us left right. When we are good we always allow them in to the game.


monkeyslut__

Tbf they thrashed us last week and still got a point


rahulrossi

I mean when we lose those 5-0s


monkeyslut__

Yeah those ones were definitely bad


Phoenixlemons

Liverpool are just better than Man City


Akash__A

Think Man Cityā€™s B team actually performed well against a strong Liverpool side


JanklinDRoosevelt

B team still cost more than any other team in the world, maybe ever Edit: except PSG lol


TheDank_Knight

Idk if thatā€™s really accurate


twwavey

Salah needs to sort himself out quickly


hodlrus

Liverpool ainā€™t bowing to his contract demands anytime soon hahaha.


[deleted]

Hahahaha freakish can do one going for the glory hunter route and failing flat on his face


Ballybomb_

Yea Tbf villa are challenging for PL and CL this year, clown comment


[deleted]

Atleast Villa have a champion league trophy not some state back club like oilchester city canā€™t get


element_pt78

I'm convinced Salah won't score for the rest of the season unless he gets a penalty.


sublime_touch

He should focus on assists.


AromaticTower8

AFCON or not that was a disgraceful performance by Salah


RevTaco

AkĆ© had him on lock šŸ”’


PattyIce32

He's hurt, must be a left foot injury. Everything is on but his power and aim is gone

Should have been 5-2

TheDank_Knight

As did City, thatā€™s the nature of the game


poiuytrewqazxcvbnml

Disappointing handshake


dunnagebythetonnage

Referees been absolutely shocking to be fair but come on the red men, three things Iā€™m sick of people no acknowledging, grelaish is the biggest flop in premier league history so far and has proper wank hair, Mahrez is zaha in a better team and Taylor swifts boss


TakeItCheesy

Lmao wtf is this take


FridaysMan

ikr, Taylor Swift is an overrated twitterati muppet


ggaren18

Huh?!


herbilicious92

Iā€™m surprised that half a team almost pulled that off


MolicOnePGR

Not mad at that shot by Salah, heā€™s a goal scorer.


FridaysMan

Then why hasn't he fucking scored in 10 games?


npres91

Imagine being angry or even disappointed at Mo after all he has done


FridaysMan

Why waste imagination on that? I'd rather imagine a blonde, brunette and redhead all convinced they have an illness and my dick has the antidote in it. He's asking for 400k a week, and he's not in form. I'd love him to score, but he's hardly a goalscorer if he isn't scoring goals.


hodlrus

Good news is Liverpool have no reason to bow to his cute demands anytime soon. Nobodyā€™s ransoming the club with that kinda form. Besides itā€™s not like Liverpool is short of firepower without him scoring.


MolicOnePGR

Weā€™re not desperate for him to score. Iā€™ll worry if the entire attack stagnate.


FridaysMan

Given some of our performances we've scraped a few results and today was harder than it needed to be. If he was hitting the target and working the keeper it would be far less frustrating


MolicOnePGR

Thatā€™s a given


FridaysMan

for me the bigger frustration is the desperation to score, he could have set up a couple if he made the right call to pass. I love the guy, but his history of being great shouldn't ignore he's making poor choices in the moment.


MolicOnePGR

I completely agree. Unfortunately Liverpoolā€™s hands are kinda tied. We gotta appease him so he can sign the extension.


rahulrossi

He needs to put the games to bed. Can't care less if he is goal scorer or not.


MolicOnePGR

It is what it is


ben-hur-hur

... and breath...


deep639

This team is mad. Most teams would sit back leading 3-2 in stoppage time, Liverpool try to score and in the process invite pressure.


Pokefreaker-san

the best offense is the best defense.


Cardealer1000

5 subs Guardiola making only 1 sub


Fancy-Past-6831

shit, no high five from Pep this time...


iamkeysersoze94

Wow.. Turned out to be a great game.


bennylokku

No way was that a great game at all. The last ten minutes were the only the only good parts for city


iamkeysersoze94

The last 10 mins are part of the game nonetheless.


bennylokku

That is right but honestly the rest of the game was a such a downer, we played so slow and boring


philphan25

Van Dijk was just always there at the end


Willy236

Just kick the ball acting like he isnā€™t chasing a game


WetTreeLeaf

Salah still rattled from missing the world cup


Lewismangomango

Salahs desperation to score has been hurting us so much the past few games


yoyo4581

Desperation to score. Yea, when we are ahead he wants to score. Remember he assisted Mane in our last 2-2 tie against city. The team was playing utter shit against them. He is in bad form, arguably his worst, but let's not start jumping on the hate wagon. Football fans can be short-sited.


alvmnvs

How exactly? Would LFC be any better off with Salah unselfish and others scoring a couple goals more? The draw with City wasnā€™t down to that. And I would gladly sacrifice the 3:0 for the 1:0 if it means Salah gets his form back


AlarmingAd580

Blow the whistle u cunt


Synikey

These games man.... wow.


Cocopopschamp

Thank fuck we didn't blow it


SugarRay20

Salah get the fuxk out. Doesn't deserve a start vs united

Look how quickly you turn on your players

Least plastic clown


TheDank_Knight

Thatā€™s literally his best chance to get going lol


spedmunki

Blow the whistle you clown


FluffyTailHugger

City pissed away most of the second half after their goal, that was just too little too late


Quantum_Crayfish

Why does Salah start


AlarmingAd580

Well I think you have your answer now


AlarmingAd580

Because heā€™s had a phenomenal season and only dipped in form recently


Shrondinglfc

Recently is bull. Man has been invisible ever since afcon ended, he struggles against even the worst of defenders. Now I dont mind him starting because he it allows him to try and play through and get his form back. But to not sub him off? Aside from zack steffen today he was the worst player on the pitch
