Match Thread FA Cup: Man City v Liverpool

[justme]

OMG - so Guehi the player we should have landed is all but certain to get that 5 defeats for the season agains us. Semenyo the other lad we should have at least been in for can claim similar

What has happened to us. We were t the best side last season but the cards aligned - but we look like a bunch of chumps today.

City could embarrass us here

They don't give a fuck. Look at our captains body language, he knows hes finished. so could careless.

[Steveo]

As Salah hits one like a pub player whose been on the lash the night before.

[redgold]

This isn't even the best of Pep's City sides. We're just so bad. Even if we held out own for 40 minutes it was inevitable that we'd crumble after the first goal.

We have about 5 good players.

[miller0863]

Liverpool 3 big chances 0 goals.

City 3 big chances 3 goals

[RedMagic]

Jacquet is joining the ranks for one - that'll be part of our succession planning. It's a process.

As for Guehi, I'm glad we're not spending £300k-per-week on him, though obviously I'd have loved us to have brought in an alternative - no issue with people being disgruntled about our recruitment there.

Jacquet ---------- ? ----------> VVD

Where's that middle player? Jacquet is young and inexperienced. VVD is quickly approaching the end of his career with us. We needed and still need a experienced good to top quality defender along with similar players in other areas. Where are they? Our supposed succession planning has been shambolic.

There’s not one player out there good enough.

That's obviously not true. It's 70% of a title winning team.

[miller0863]

Salah with another awful attempt

[shminkyred]

Good solid start

Last thing i saw before i went to the shops! what the fuk happened?

[jimmyliver]

He has to go there are no excuses anymore , every player is not good enough

[eggy81]

That's obviously not true. It's 70% of a title winning team.

It was. But mean on the day. Something seriously amiss mentally with these boys. It’s not all the manager.

[Steveo]

That's obviously not true. It's 70% of a title winning team.

You always seem to miss what it was that really drove our success and it wasn't just the quality of the players. Klopp's best squad under Slot don't win anything of note.


Last season was the culmination of the great mans work.

[eggy81]

Just blow it up ref. These lads have completely given up. PSG over 2 legs. Gonna need a huge change in attitude to avoid a huge defeat.

[redgold]

Ok. 4. Bets on double figures with 30 mins plus to go? If Slot isn't gone by teatime there should be a revolution

[eggy81]

We don’t even look fit.

[Insidious]

"Part" of our succession planning.

I am not suggesting Jacquet solves all of our problems.
