Tomiyasu throw in second yellow

Martinelli double yellow for same passage of play

and now Rice second yellow for tapping a moving ball away.
The ball was still moving, Brighton couldnt even take that free kick by laws of the game.


Biases aside, have yet to see any other team kena such ridiculous decisions.

fyi, ball was still rolling when Rice touched it.. So Brighton couldn't even take that free kick if they wanted to.. So how is Rice impeding the free kick?

ah right.. same cunt

dont care who win or lose.

but i want them both to suffer from atrocious refereeing like us

maybe undeserved red card to one of them, and VAR cancelled legal goal for the other

Raheem taking 30

ready for another chelsea reject to go pop and bang?

Sterling does not look like a washed player at all. Looks hungry and sharp.

My prediction: Brought in as a Saka backup but before you know it he will be our starting LW instead..

yupp. Sterling had 18 GA last season.. Brought in as a Saka backup. Previously Saka backup was Nelson.

Nelson's salary was 100k/week, we will be paying Sterling around 140k/week out of his 325k/week. (around 40%)

For just an additional 40k/week, we will be getting a way better backup option that could even challenge for first 11, and he have experience winning stuff + worked with the manager previously..

Even if he doesn't hit his strides, no way he would be a worse option to bring on than Nelson..

Chelsea paying Sterling in the region of £10m to play for Arsenal.

yupp like i said last year as well, a damn shame he was immediately injured last season.

So Timber the new signing here we go!

Anyway, he doesn't look fully fit and back to his old self yet.. Maybe around 80% only.. Understandable since he did his ACL, his recovery is actually amazing. Now I just hope when he's fully fit his explosive burst of pace is still there

Shout-out to Nwaneri too. 17 years old and he was so composed every single time he came on for us so far...

His style/composure also reminds me of Fabregas when he broke out back in the day

David Raya warra beast

fucking robot got fixed with latest patch

CALAMARI YA FUCKIN BEAUTTTTT

David Raya MVP

holy fuck

The boys did well. When we got red carded i was expecting we gonna lose already. The fact we kept our lead right up till the very last minute..

Fuck it, there was zero fault from our boys. They gave it their all but it's hard to play against fucking City and PGMOL at this point.

The funniest part is rival fans can only talk shit that we park the bus or play terrorist football, but no shit we are down to 10 away at the Etihad, wtf you expect us to do.. Continue play tiki taka football? Their teams in similar position would have lost the game well before subs are made. They know it, we know it. That's why im proud of our boys for being able to hang on, almost secured 3 points but in the end managed a draw. Still a massive result.


Rival fans will talk shit, but Liverpool fans should most probably understand the position we are in. The Liverpool fans who defend or happy with the refs decision are damn dumb.
They are also title contenders this season, and they also got shafted going against City+PGMOL in the past. One way or another Liverpool WILL be getting shafted too this season just like us. So its damn dumb for some minority Liverpool fans to be happy we got shafted by the refs when they are literally next in line.

If we watch this, can clearly see Walker taking his time to do his stuff..
Those saying ref didnt give him chance to get back in position is just BS.

At 0:10, Ref dismissed Walker/Saka, there was a whole 7 seconds before the ball was later kicked by Partey.

Between 0:10 to 0:15 Walker was mucking about in the middle shouting instructions at his backline, and he took the position in the backline there.

Only at 0:15, Walker realizes his lack of awareness of where Martinelli was and hurriedly tried to close the gap he left open.

At 0:17, Partey kicked the ball to resume play and the rest is history.

I'm not gonna let any bozo try to re-write this lmao.
If you gonna try and say this is Walker not back in his position in the backline already..

Remember, he himself took position in the middle. He was already in the backline and busy shouting instructions to his mates.

It is nobody's fault but his own that he was not aware where Martinelli was.
Just like how he brushed Doku off Gabriel to defend him on his own and made an absolute clown show of it busy poking Gaby's abs instead of defending.



That backline was set and perfectly fine, the RB does not literally go stand beside/near the opposing LW to be "in position" to defend.
Nobody does that even.

For comparison this was our backline's positioning in an almost similar situation.
The only difference is that Timber was not caught out by Doku, but Walker was caught out by Martinelli



But here's the even funnier thing that people just dont want to realize/admit, Walker DID successfully closed the door and defended from Martinelli, that's why Martinelli had to cut back to Cala.. The goal wasn't even a product of Martinelli successfully breaching City's defensive line or whatever. They had the whole team back in the box by time Martinelli was looking for the outlet
