These Mancs suddenly appear when the Champions lost a match, really funny though.

Thought they would concentrate on their own pathetic team

At least the Mancs have something to cheer about then watching their boring team

No, genuine.

A bit pissed off at the stupid mistakes that led to 4 goals and bemoaning the rub of the green that meant that we didn't score any, but that could easily have been 4-3 or 5-4 - when you're playing at the highest level (like these two teams are), one of the teams just has to be 5 percent off and the other capitalises.

That said, this defeat really is meaningless 'cos we've already won the league - now had we needed to win this game to wrap it up and we didn't, that would be different.

Is it that long ago that your team won the League that you've forgotten what it feels like after you've won - the remainder of the games become irrelevant - a dead rubber if you will.

I don't even care about the 100 point record - we've broken a 30 year drought and that is ALL that matters to me :)

Not sure what game you were watching, but City destroyed Liverpool. No silly mistakes from Liverpool - they were just taken apart.

Not sure which game you were watching - must be those biased lenses you have on...

First goal - silly by Gomez
Second goal - Robertson rushes in and leaves his area of the pitch open for Foden to stroll into
Third goal - ditto - Robertson mistake and leaves it open for Foden; Alisson comes rushing out when he might have been better served staying put
Fourth goal - Sterling's shot is wide, Ox kicks it in trying to clear.

All the goals come from characteristic pressure from City and uncharacteristic mistakes by Liverpool

Just give it a rest Splinter, you will never get it even explained in simple English. Acting pathetically just like your horrible team.

Go sleep now if you can after Pools loss

Thanks, but the only person who has been acting pathetically here is you.

Look, we can all make explanations after the fact for goals scored against one's team. He should have done this, they should have been there. Bottom line is your team was ripped apart. And no real home team advantage either.

I beg to differ - City is used to playing without fans in the stadium - it's not called the Emptyhad for nothing :ROFL:

As for the goals, yeah, I don't really give a **** about the loss - the season is done for me - out of all the cups, so nothing to play for beyond seeing the youngsters, newbies and injury returns get up to speed - so just basking in the glory of number 19 and hoping we can do it again next season.

Hehe. Fair enough dude. I got to be honest, the only reason I haven't congratulated you chaps on a superb season, and a totally deserved trophy, is because of one certain member here.

Which is actually ridiculous if I think about it.

Let me correct the error of my ways.
