Somewhere, in his lair, Karius is stroking his white cat with an evil grin on his face. 

It’s almost like he didn’t make 2 massive howlers in the biggest match in club football.

 

Plus, if at any point Karius had a cat in his hands it most certainly wouldn’t have been there for long.

They are playing some brilliant football and haven't spent the money of City. Does show what can happen with everyone pulling in the right direction and given time to build 

Fabinho 40 million

Keita 50 million

Allison 56 million

Shaqiri 13 million

 

All this last summers transfers. That's quite a lot of money. All good signings.

This is the thing for me, they have slowly built up the team, have a manager who clearly gets on well with their players and as a result the players give their all each match. Of course they have more money than most teams, but they have invested it wisely and it’s definitely a case that their sum is more than their parts. 

 

Have no idea how it is 1-1 right now...

let’s not pretend they’ve not spent an outrageous amount of money, too.

Agree its a lot of money, but not at the level of City just yet. The quality of the buys is clear though, look at Everton spending 200million and getting nowhere

Yes and shows they also have a good manager.

Gross spend since klopp came in is believed to be 19 Players Bought: £382,850,000

largely offset by sale of Coutinho not sure how far behind man city this gross spend is.

Oh mate no question, he was terrible. Just a funny thought of him feeling justified any time this chap makes a mistake. 

 

And let’s be honest, he’s a pro footballer, the handling of pussy is the least of his worries.

It is a huge amount, but not quite at the billion mark City squad is worth/cost 

man city’s starting 11 yesterday can’t have been much more than liverpool’s today 

 

(without knowing what either of the starting 11s were or how much any of them actually cost, i’m basically just making that stat up)

No different to the press anyway. If you listen to them, Burnley are working off a shoe string and Bournemouth are still batting above their number despite being majorly bankrolled for the last 3 seasons.

I think since the start of the 15/16 season Man City's gross spend is something like 460 million the figure for Liverpool is since Klopp arrived.

Apologies missed out a season so make that nearer 750 million

So did some adding...

 

Man City squad yesterday cost around 670 million (not including the 3 kids on the bench) 

 

Liverpool today: 483 million 

 

So quite a big difference, with Liverpool at basically full strength and City missing Mendy and David Silva who cost a fair bit each

Just a couple of Pogbas really.
