Pope is just going through a bad patch. He is still a good keeper (bar the kicking). It’s whether Eddie decides he is in the last chance saloon. I think he’ll start at the weekend hoping that the blunders are behind him.

Yeah, you could single most of the team out from last night. Even Tonali was sloppy. I think Gordon is beginning to grate on fans now because it’s coming upto 10 months now without any consistency. I thought Murphy was terrible last night, although it’s not his fault he was out of position. Still, we are at a stage where we are fuming over losing an away CL game. Realistically this might be as good as it gets for us. Enjoy it lads.

He doesn’t have the dribbling skills as Gordon. In theory he should be loving Bruno’s through balls as he is lightening quick without the ball but he doesn’t have the intelligence to make the correct runs. I think this bit can be coached/drilled into him.

We get to spend the £80m.

Aye. I’ve never taken to him tbh (maybe it’s the Scouse thing). He talks a good game but his body language tells a different story, pretty much since he got here. He clearly thinks he is better than he is. I’d flog him to Liverpool tomorrow for £80m. He has never been one of our blue chip players. He doesn’t have the finishing ability or composure to get to that level. A very good player when he is on it but will never get any higher imo.

Sorry to disappoint but he won’t drop Pope for Saturday. I’ll let it upto Eddie. He sees them both in training.

He is just a sprinter with two good feet. I’m not sure he has the intelligence to be anything other than a one dimensional counter attacker.

Pope clanger but we don’t have any goals in this team (bar Barnes).

Game over now. These subs (probably forced because of fitness) have killed it.

Is that Miley at RB?

Is Auba wearing a wig?

Pope got that wrong. Great finish though.

If Longstaff misplaced 1 pass out of 50 you were on his case. 😀

They are top 3 scorers in European leagues. We’ll do well to hold out.

His nephew jumped well above Barnes.

This is the day Burns long throw bears fruit.

Willock playing is a bit of a suprise as well. He must be doing well in training.

Hall must not be fit enough to go again. Maybe Big Nick needs a break too.

Man City have put out an entirely different 11 players v Leverkusen.

What are you setting the release clause at?

The new chook.

Does Amorim have cojones to change the 3 at the back at half time?

If you need a good nights sleep then I highly recommend Honey and camomile tea.

Aye. It should have been 3-3 at half time. Then we took the second half.
