A target man in this Man City team just looks awkward.

He isn't even really just a target man as he could certainly be played in behind etc.

 

It is just like Man City have forgotten how to play with an actual striker rather than a floating false 9

Harland reminds me of a big angry baby

Let's be honest here, you're being kind. It's nothing that sophisticated, they just think it makes them look cool and different. They're comfortably the most fragile fans in football that care more about what other people think of them than any other supporter base, which given how massive snowflakes football fans are in general is really saying something. 

The number of Liverpool fans from Northampton, Peterborough, Milton Keynes in that end booing it is a laughable idea.

 

After Randers I was on a train home full of Worksop’s top reds and they were insufferable. A bloke was playing back videos of him signing and put on a Scouse accent when singing “**** the tories”

It's a boring anthem anyway  /s 

I agree but I don't think it's a critique on the tune. Maybe they are mixing up Queen Liz with Liz Truss.

Ridiculous he even got a shot away that first time as he was falling. Haaland is absolutely nuts.

Also great to see him put Robertson on his arse.

Why did the commentators find it so difficult to confirm that Ake got a deflection for the goal

I mean, you're still replying?

I was genuinely having a conversation about the choice of stadiums, but all I got back from you were childish comments and nonsense. Not a single reply was worth reading. This was yet another one.

 

Feel free to continue, you’ve got more chance of Jurgen reading the replies

Awesome player, not sure if Man City are going to play to his strengths.

Because its Liverpool so it must have been an amazing strike, not a jammy deflection.

I genuinely think he's very diverse. He's like Vardy on steroids, yes he's fast and he can get in behind but his general movement around the box is so good and his finishing is so reliable that he'll fit in any team that creates chances.

Mahrez is desperate to bag a goal.

Certainly not desperate to pass is he?

Is Haaland a donkey? 

[StanSP]

De Bruyne so sloppy so far.

That woman commentator is Karen Carney. Who is well respected ex England player. 

Well her name doesn’t make her a better commentator I’m afraid

Turns out you don't need folded bits of cardboard to create an atmosphere.

Pep and Klopp get away with murder on the touchline. Happy to send others to the stands though

That first touch though!!!

 

Might strip him of my FF captaincy!

And yet you do with Leicester fans… so there’s that!

Liverpool fans booing the monarchy yet calling Salah the Egyptian king 🤷‍♂️

Was it some kind of nod to us being the current holders?

 

Somewhere like West Ham would’ve been a better option. Pitch is gonna be f**ked for our friendly tomorrow

I expect they wouldn't want to have it in London on the same weekend 90k fans go down there for the Womens Euro Final

 

They would also have to take into account any the other London clubs playing games today (Millwall, Leyton Orient, Wimbledon, Arsenal)

 

I doubt Man Utd or Everton would like to host, Newcastle played a friendly, maybe Leeds could have?

 

Cardiff played at home so wouldn't be able to use Millenium stadium

 

With all that a Midlands team would make sense

 

We have no other teams to worry about, and apparently the media facilities at Villa Park are shocking
