    As I said, arsenal will win well.

    Why? City midfield is a joke. They've spent what 250mil or sowmthing and didn't even look to the one thing they really really needed.

    Pep has lost his aura now. He just looks stupid. No full backs. Players like walker and grealish not bothered to fight. No midfield, bringing gundogan back in tje summer was massive error.

    Thry have no shape and they have been literally walked through today.

    Yes arsenal are a quality side but city have lost plenty of games before today

    They've simply not addressed the big issue.

    City are awful defensively but have very little threat in attack as well. Haaland will always get you goals but they have no idea how to get him chances at the moment. There whole midfield seems devoid of any ideas at the moment. Least the result takes city fully out of the equation

    He'll probably walk away in the summer, claim stress or something

    Hasn't got the fight for a rebuild, never has and why he only extended for 1yr last season, thinking he'd walk the league again with the same team.

    City were probably the best team up to conceding second.

    Haarland scoring then immediately conceding via a massive deflection totally deflated them and they fell apart.

    Law of diminishing returns is the problem of City. Hope we can get a result at Etihad wehn we play them.

    you say that, but all I saw was City passing it around in front of Arsenal team. Classic Pep, but without the penetration. Domination of possession perhaps, but the better team. Not sure about that.

    The scoreline was a bit surprising but the result not really . City are broken and not seen anything to show it's getting better this season

    Some big games coming up until end of Feb.

    Everton game needs to be a win now. Get that lead up to 9 points before couple tougher games.

    lfc -
    Everton away
    Wolves home
    city away
    neecastle home

    arsenal
    Leicester away
    West Ham home
    Forest away

    If Forest can get a result against Arsenal would be huge. Obviously need to do our own business but get to end of Feb with a lead of 6 or more and will be in great position

    They also had more shots, more shots on target, better xg and more touches in the opposition box at the time.

    Game in the Netherlands finished 2-2 after Fortuna had 12 players on the pitch. Officials failed to spot that the player didn't leave the pitch during a substitution.

    This was a top flight game in the Eredivisie

    They won’t
    That will be the worst defensive display between now and the end of the season by them

    I understand no one is going to hand us the title - but because of who LFC are it always has to be earned

    we are in a good position but I can see Arsenal being perfect with the fixtures left

    we have to win the ones we are expected to win and a few
    Of the tighter ones - winning both derbies looks massively important to me

    say for arguments sake City and Arsenal both beat us and the derbies are drawn
    and we win all the other games - I think we still lose the league so it’s got a long way to run as those results are by no way impossible

    going to be tense

    As things are going, we need to beat Arsenal when they come to Anfield.

    I think we have to treat that game that way
    A draw probably isn’t the worst but gives them hope

    that said if we were to win that game I would think we were going to get cocky and go on a losing streak

    I think I will have to stay quiet from here on in lol <laugh>

    A draw is not going to be bad if we are six or nine points clear of Arsenal then.
