Match Day Thread Vs Man City (A)

let's not get carried away with wild conspiracy theories eh?

 

but it was about me being really annoying as a super fan right?

 

This is paranoia man. I am sure Klopp and the team do not go into a match saying that the ref and his assistants will be against us today. We win or we learn from the draw or loss. We won't do that if we blame every single set back on the referee.

 

No. It was a direct response to a post by saint about Lovren being a scapegoat (****).

 

As good as city are
And they are phenomenal
I cannot believe how reliant they seem on Fernandinho
Last night he made one challenge really early on (2nd min I think) that I think he should have been booked for to break up play
But after that he was sensational - there may have been a cynical shove later on but could not make out if it was him
Is that someone who pep bought or was he brought in earlier?

Either way we are well in this race
Someone earlier was being a tad sarcastic about the whole invincible thing but I agree getting beat not a disaster in that Regard.
Did I want to get beat - no
But we have enough historical pressure trying to win prem against one of the best sides assembled ever. We don’t need the circus that surrounds the whole invincibles thing
Just like when Allison conceded his first goal. Came at a good time and showed us a bit about our team.

 

Getting bored now - is the Wolves match thread open?

 

#dissappointed

 

Wild conspiracy? I #calledit after Newcastle the ref would affect the City game with an astonishing decision against us. It happened. Case closed.

 

if hardly say that anything that happened was astonishing... surely if you were right then nothing should be astonishing.. they should be entirely predictable.

 

Haven't seen a single pundit who didn't think Kompany should have got a red

Anyone who looks at the bookings given and not given by Anthony Taylor and thinks he was fair is #deluded

 

Fans of all clubs could have examples of blatant wrong ref decisions. The kompany could have been a red. But even carragher said that he thought that about 3 out of 10 refs would have given a red. And no one can accuse him of being an anti red

 

Aguero was play-acting - we spoke about it a while ago how the really good players let themselves down by 'cheating'. He took the goal well, we missed our chances.

1cm of the ball not having crossed the line

 

he did that with vvd.. went down easy and appealed for a pen... but he then got up and was clearly onside when ball was played. lovren had no idea where he was and he nipped round him to take ball. but the important fact is ball was wide and was played back to him so he was miles onside when he actually got it.

 

Important fact is Anthony Taylor didn't book him for simulation, yet another in a long list of mistakes benefiting City

 

Knew it was one of me, MITO or Saint. Not wise going for any of them really

 

Who was responding to Jimmy questioning why he's a scapegoat after I pointed out he was getting made a scapegoat #allaboutzanjinho

 

Been open ages

 

And its sh!t

 

That's a real positive coming from you though
