    I think it will be a different game in the second half. You were trying to hit them on the counter and I think you'll be more attacking after the break.

    Liverpool need to be better in the 2nd half or the wheels could come off their fantastic season.

    VVD needs to be more composed instead of hoofing it up the pitch like he’s playing for Wimbledon.

    I feel they need the help. De Bruyne will be on soon.

    City playing without attacking fullbacks has nuilifed their own attacking play as much as it’s stifled the RS.

    Who will be the first player after the break to go down holding his face in agony, having not been touched anywhere near it?

    1.12cm was apparently the distance the ball was still on the line for that first half goal line clearance.

    Our first goal against Newcastle on the opening day crossed the line by 9mm.
    I thought that it didn't cross the line on first viewing and that the Liverpool chance had. It's been a very good addition.

    That's far more of a foul than Salah v Newcastle.

    Goal line technology is a great additon. VAR not so much....for now. If they manage to speed it up so that it doesn't disrupt play, then I think more people would accept it.

    Not sure if you've experienced it in the flesh, but VAR's terrible when you're at a match, in my experience.
    That's probably more to do with how it's been implemented in this country than anything, though.

    I haven't yet no. But I could imagine that it's really ****ing confusing because nobody knows what's going on.

    VAR never really settles the argument, it still comes down more often than not to judgement. Goal line technology, on the other hand, is pretty clear cut, the ball is either over the line or it isn't. I'd **** VAR off completely; goal line technology is indispensable now.

    I knew I'd seen another ridiculously close one this season.
