      Well Nike, that is two good games you have pointed to. I will not offer predictions because they will both be tight so even draws could come out of it, I hope not. For City i think Dias and Rodri will be fit for the game so that is a relief. Augerro back training, should be ready in a couple of weeks before we see him

        Nine..at the moment we are very good at a consistent level but still not near best we can play until we get KDB and Augerro back. However, as Pep says, we can loose a few games and everything changes again. Everton will be a tough game and we meet them in the league just before/after, not sure. Getting a result to morrow would be good though but I am guessing Jose will not want to loose back to back games and plan accordingly

            Pagan…I know you are right but in some ways i hope it would collapse and we do go back to when some honest football. I would probably not like the discomfort of the old stadiums anymore but i do miss the real fans of yesteryear. I do not like the tribal mentality of to days fans Like to watch 22 players although always have my team at heart. Fanciful…OK…my era has passed but I know the watching experience was way ahead of to days status

              I think one of the biggest problems of football is that it is over analysed in a nonsensical way. We have confusing laws, TV, media VAR endless hindsight analysis by “experts”.Toe nail decisions etc. Where has the simple game of football gone???? Who is going to sort it and when

                Swansea…happy with the performance, win and giving youngsters time on pitch Rodri is turning out to be a real winner in midfield battles
                Jesus and Sterling just baffle me. I doubt anybody works as hard as they do for the team but they are not natural scorers. maybe we do not need one, since results would prove me wrong

                  Swansea to night for us, it is usually a good game when we play Swansea whoare a decent footballing team, I do not expect an easy game and the banana skin is just outside the door. it will be interesting to see who pep plays/rests. Spurs on Saturday but Pep always says he only plans for the game in front of him. The media keep banging on about a 10 point lead…it is a 5 point lead, no more, no less. I know they reference Liverpool but the challenge, at this moment is closer

                    Clearly the Ref got it wrong, but whats new???? Refs have always got things wrong, my belief is the standard needs to be raised and stop messing around with the rules. The real culprits are those not giving enough evidence to the Ref by good judgement by themselves. We are in a mess and it needs sorting. I am reluctant to put too much blame on the Refs though without involving others

                      I just think people have a lot of personal issues at the moment and football i not a priority right now. In all probability the same is happening on other forums and not just sporting ones. We will get up to speed again

                        keep well Adlab…..nothing moreimportant than your health. Although, in saying that, after all my tears of watching City i should have gone long ago with heart failure or heartache!!!! I am just enjoying the last 10 years whatever happens now, much better than the old days

                          It was scrappy and I expected better football from two teams that are the best at watchable football, at the start I thought we were two lightweight up front so in my head i tough 0-0. Two things apparent to me
                          City changed the tactical plan at Ht, this was important
                          Defensive mistakes
                          Klopp set his style up, to play from the back when the players, he selected, could not do it comfortably, in my eyes ,some of the responsibility should be shared

                          The keeper will take the flack but he is a Pro so will bounce back

                            Not as fluent as could be but Liverpool did not make it easy, apart from defensive mistakes. I thought we would have been to lightweight up front, but if you can score 4 an Anfield nothing much wrong. Still a long way to go, not celebrating yet, this was another step in right direction. Pep was smart enough to change tactics in the second half.The only threat was Liverpools FBs and he catered for them, good tactical sense.

                              I will be more than interested in how City approach and play this game. Liverpool will always be a challenge, no matter what. I think Pep needs them fully focused for 90 minutes plus then they have a chance, little in football differences, so it will be tactical differences and what players turn up or not on the day, for both teams

                                As to the Ref…i do not care who it is, I expect them to be fair to both sides. It is the VAR interpretation I do not trust!! I would like to see a good game, no sending off some goals, some brilliant saves and an entertaing match…not much to ask for from two top teams. The game will not decide who is this seasons Champions

                                      Liverpool will be well up for it on Sunday aftertaste night result. I just hope we can continue with our current form. Should be a cracking match

                                          Nine.it would be nice to come through the two games but it is also a big ask. I had hoped KDB and Augerro would have been fit for the Liverpool game however, if ever there was a chance for Sterling to shine, it would be this one. We have no strikers so I think Liverpools CB problem may not be as bad for them. I came to the conclusion long ago Jesus is not a striker, better employed on the left

                                            Sean..there are some really good players in the Championship that would do well in PL. Do not know enough about the lad you are to sign but he will have ticked a few boxes with Mr Klopp
