A deserved 2-0 half time lead for Man City. Liverpool sure to have a kick in them, can't be as bad 2nd half?
Is the ref going to finally blow his whistle?... No, he's going to blow his nose

When the best attacking side in England spends £300m+ in the same window on attacking players, and things then go to pot, it's hard not let out a Nelson Muntz style haha.

To be fair one of those players hasn't been on the pitch.

As good as Liverpool was mid week against Real Madrid they were the opposite tonight as bossed and bullied by City.  Strange lack of consistency from Liverpool this season after spending big in the summer.

Look-Up!

 I thought at the time they should have gave Isak a wide berth especially with the price tag and after the way he engineered his exit. Defence was more a priority and Guehi would have been a great addition. That didn't happen and they looked like they could cope till next window before strengthening CD, but since Isak came in they've been a disaster for whatever reason, coincidence or not.
 Squad looks way off balance. At this stage if Slot can steady the ship and towards end of season have them fine tuned and looking like they could mount a title challenge for the following season, it will be a very good season for them. With the money they've spent, they don't want to have buyer's remorse and be looking to overhaul the squad come summer. Or even searching a new manager.

Sunderland looked great last night. Very physical team but very athletic and can all play. City on a bit of a roll but that was a poor team they were playing today. Hope they come unstuck at some stage, preferably when January window closes after they've failed to strengthen.
