      Salah only got the reputation about 4 weeks ago. He’s been accused before (yup there’s that diving contradiction again) of being too honest when he could of gone down.

        Nine, I don’t want to start a finger pointing debate, more that I am interested in people’s opinions on how to tackle it or if we should accept it.

        The names at the start were just a bit of fun but also so people could identify difference types of dive as I believe this is were a problem lies. It’s universally condemned if someone goes for a double front somersault in the area with the nearest defender 2 meters away but then when Kane does a Harry Kane or Salah a Mo Salah dive then I hear people say it was well played. Is this acceptable? If not, what can be done? If Neymer was retrospectively banned for his antics he’d never be able to play again! But the authorities turn a blind eye. Why? Or are we all living in a bygone era and need to get with the times?

          The Tom Daley could of been a dozen or so players from the past 10 years to be honest.

            We will probably all agree that the refs are not good enough. But have we gone past the point of no return? Will introducing a red card make any difference when a yellow or retrospective action has had little effect?

            I’ve been very disappointed with the retrospective banning system, as I alluded to in the opening post I think it’s just the blatant Tom Daley dives that receiving any action, but most top players know to avoid doing these but can get away with the others.

              Many of the empty seats are near the centre circle, I suspect these are not the cheap ones. Sadly for City these are the ones everyone sees on TV!

                Read that a lot of their season ticket holders are tourist fans that don’t turn up for every match, only the very big ones. Football is all about making money, overseas investment, corporate boxes, overseas TV revenue etc, the real fan is sadly being driven away. This is happening at most of the big teams, I suspect it is happening on a bigger scale at City.

                  Oz, no need to have a go at me with that attitude, I simply asked where do you think we were lucky against Brighton. Like, do you think it was the penalty? But if you want to be an arse then I’ll know not to ask you again.

                    Oz, how were we lucky against Brighton? Looked a pretty comfortable, controlled performance to me.

                      Nil, we have Salah, Mane, Firmino and Shaq, where do you think a player like Pedro would play?

                      Looking at the table I don’t understand all the Liverpool talk about missing players, unless only back ups, for which I don’t think a player like Pedro could be classed as.

                        Don’t think there can be much argument about that one.

                          “Klopp put all his eggs into winning the PL and the CL. Only time will tell whether he was right to do that.”

                          Well yeah, it’s always going to easy to critise with the benefit of hindsight. In my opinion with the squad we have and the opportunity we have in the league he made the right decision. If we fall short I’m not going to point the finger at him and say we should of focused on the cup. No one knows what will happen in the future (except Oz in his depressing world of City dominance!), or what could of happened if this happened or he did that etc.

                            Guys, seriously you’re questioning the goal line technology? You sound desperate.

                            Tough game, chances I thought were fairly even, City controlled the midfield better and Fernandinho the best player on the pitch. Football is sometimes about fine margins and the Stones clearance was one of the finest!

                            Lovren didn’t have a good game but he wasn’t at fault for the second. It was actually Fabinho who was out of position giving the City player (Sterling?) space to run into the middle. Lovren had to step out before Sterling got too close for a shot or slide rule pass. Therefore TAA moved to Aguero leaving Sane free.

                            Long, long way to go for the league, I’m sure all three top teams will drop more points along the way.

                              Oz, I didn’t imply you don’t enjoy watching Liverpool, think you’d find it difficult not to enjoy it, but I don’t understand why you feel so negative beforehand about what seems like every match. And I’m not talking about winning the title, which incidentally until recently I had City as clear favorites, but do you not get excited beforehand about just watching this LFC team play? Sure we may get beat, can happen anytime, but I enjoy the excitement I feel leading up to a match knowing how this team plays.

                              Klopp was right when he said they need to turn from doubters into believers.

                                Just find you very boring that every match you say the same stuff, and every match you’ve been wrong. You very rarely justify anything, just negative crap every time.

                                  Must be terrible constantly predicting doom for Liverpool this season and being wrong every time?

                                  Very glad I can actually look forward to games to be honest.

                                    Why would Pulisc’s arrival mean the end of Hazard at Chelsea? They play on different sides of the pitch. Probably means the end of either Willian or Pedro. If Hazard goes it won’t be because of Pulisic.

                                    Pulisic is class. Seen him a few times come off the bench for BvB when they needed something different and he changed the game. But as Sean says Sancho is keeping him out of the team this season and looks a beast already. He will surely return to England one day for a huge fee. Hope City didn’t insert a buy back clause!

                                      Paxton, at first glance it was a pen, but with the benefit of replay not sure. If we take Salah’s recently given two, I’d say it was more a pen than the Newcastle one and less than the Arsenal one. Only one of those was a penalty in my eyes.

                                        Possible pen against them waved awaythen a very fortuitous own goal, and people go on about Liverpool having all the luck!

                                          Not sure how the man city team will deal with the pressure of playing catch up but seems their fans can’t handle it very well!
