Liverpool with their blitz tactics within the first few moments of the game could of really punished City. City seemed to be in dire straights, and couldn't even get out of their half without giving up possession. However, there wasn't any shots on target at this point so City could probably be happy with their defense which has proven to be shaky in the past against Liverpool. Mahrez penalty was a shocker. Having said that Alison seemed to dive the right way at least.
Exactly. Liverpool almost did the job in the first 15 minutes, but for a lack of penetration to keeper. And Alison had his glove in the right place too... though the venom on the shot, had it been on target, would probably have still guided the ball in. We were lucky, and this kind of luck will get us through.
Can't help feeling a bit bummed. Draw was a wonderful result, for sure, but this was Anfield. We'll need to smack them full force away.
I think VD was good, everybody makes those mistakes, he was literally an inch away from a brilliant tackle.
And is Lovren a changed man or what? Pity he wasn't half as incredible when we lost to Chelsea.
Yep & we’re only 8 PL game down & it’s the second one of the season, it’s ridiculous. I hate international football, for once though it might have come at a good time for LFC for once. We’ve played Chelsra twice, Napoli & City in a gery short space of time, we look tired.
At least with the internationals they’ll all only be playing one game a week.
For once, I'm glad for the break. We've not been able to find any momentum since the League Cup loss... I think the first few games back from internationals should give back some confidence to our front 3, before we take on Arsenal and PSG in November! They look happy in training, so it's obviously plain old exhaustion.
Didn't even get the 1.5 pts but only 1pt...Btw, why are the Fulham defenders so shit? That last goal was something you would see in 2nd or 3rd division football, where the ST takes the ball inside the 18-yard box and smoothly turns to score a goal...no defending whatsoever, though props to Auba for making that sweet turn LOL
