    Dropping two points at OT is not too bad, but the stupid draws against Leicester and West Ham was the last straw

    Before the game, a point at OT was ok. However given the circumstances during the game, this was a massive chance to take all 3 points. Klopp needs to be more aggressive

    And big up to Alisson. Saved a massive chance and pretty much dealt with everything that came his way with ease.

    A couple of nervous kicks but overall, he was solid.

    VVD and Fabinho the only people who play without nerves.

    Its not a matter of we are not good. Its a matter of degree of beleif.

    Do you believe that from here city will drop 6 or 9 points in the last 11 games. If you suspend the red tinted glasses and objectively look at it theres just a few hopes.

    a) they drew swansea in FA cup QF so they can rest aguero for example there. mahrez can play, gundogan etc

    b) They are in CL, they didn't destroy shalke so have to focus on that next leg but shoudl be in next round.

    c) they played league cup final for 120mins and have two games following it up.

    d) fernandinho might be injured.

    e) city must go to old trafford still. city must play spurs.

    But for every point theres a counter claim on the other side for us.... Its about beleif. And I am sorry but I can smell the fear off our players. every safe pass, every time the hold the ball rather than pass, every time they float a long ball rather than try pick a pass. We didn't do this before the city game. We destroyed arsenal then we tied up v city and since then we've let not 6 points go imo form very good positions. the pressure is ratcheting up and I just don't see players standing up and being brave.

    Agreed.

    The midfield in particular bottled it. As in no pressure at all on them and they didn't want to turn on ball at all, just get it away from me attitude.

    Alisson is very crucial for the rest of the season, let us pray that Bobby is not out for long.

    agreed. our record there was awful so i said many times a draw wouldn't be too bad but once the game started and utd disintegrated before our eyes what we did was so poor.

    A) young was too scared to come out of his half

    b) rashford couldn't run up front

    c) lukaku as RM second half?? Joke.

    d) their midfield duo couldn't pass it. they were pish.

    for me we were scared of it. we couldn't get out of our own half against that? there was zero pressure on Henderson and windy and they were truly abysmal.

    we did the same against city as well, they came for a draw and we didn't go at them when we should have.

    still manage to be top even though we have missed opportunities.

    All I see are banana skins and a death by a 1000 cuts.

    have you seen our next 4 games. By rights we should win all 4, we need to win all 4 and we would have won all 4 before christmas.

    Lighten up, mate - you'll be doing yourself a mischief. All this choking and reeking of fear stuff - it's footie, not The Somme.
    We're still top of the league despite being in a dip and being up against arguably the best squad the PL has seen. Anything can happen yet.
    It's sunny out, get some fresh air. :)
