How bad were Galatasaray... We are slowly running out of games despite being given lifeline after lifeline by those around us.

Remember when you (terrible choice of words like), used to call Mignolet a cancer …..

We’ve managed to find his Georgian brother. 🤦‍♂️

It doesn’t matter if he uses his left or right foot. His kicking is utter S period! And he fills you with as much confidence as Mignolet. NONE at all!

He’s young and might turn into something special. City wanted him badly for a reason. But at the minute you have zero faith in him to do the basics right.

Anyway, just got back in the house after a nightmare 24 hours and more of travel in this A backward, Victorian S hole of a Country. Encompassing failed signals/ failed points/ and some horrible C stealing overhead signalling wires. Which all ended up with an overnight in London. We’ll get it all refunded like. But the very last thing anyone needed when you left the house 4 AM yesterday. And should have been back in it 11 PM or so last night.

Just another one for the book of what actually supporting a football team does to you and all the utter S and sacrifices you have to make. People just don’t understand and appreciate when they’ve never done it.

But thankfully there’s an International break so I shall (hopefully) watch City win the LC this avvy. Then I am done with football for two weeks. To say we need a break to refresh and recharge as much as any player does is an understatement, Aside from not being bothered with the nonsense that will go on through this break regarding our shower.

See yers all City. Which madly, this S will probably turn up and win at with 7.6 K behind them.
 
I wrote a couple of weeks ago that the big Georgian did not fill me with trust in goal. Forget about the kicking as we know it was horrific before we even signed him. Its everything else about his game that is lacking.

He just reminds me of a worse version of De Gea, in that he is decent at shot stopping but ask him to claim, sweep or command his area it is non existent. Still young mind you but he is no where near the Ali replacement we require.

Not half as bad as the Tapas Pulis has left you feeling today Gorst lad as your beloveds failed yet again to claim silverware.

Victory for football over anti-football. Which City completely dominated from 20 in until the end.

First time I’ve been happy all weekend. The above reminder that Gorst is now devoed with his Arsenal failures has just added to that.

I dont usually pay attention to what Gary Neville says but one thing he is always bang on is how risk averse Tapas Pulis sets his team out to be. City were not afraid to take risks, and it showed. The league has been a horrible watch this year, no thanks to Arteta and his brand of Mourinho-evolved anti-football.

No surprise, but Mo’s official.

Just seen this myself. I feel like I should be more gutted than I am, but I dont think anyone can be surprised. I guess thats because im comparing it to the bombshell of when Klopp left which came out of nowhere.

Its a shame his last season has ended on a whimper (both personally and the club)

With it looking unlikely we are going to win a trophy this season, or him breaking any more records, where would you rank him in the all time greats at the club @Scouseinthehouse ? Interested in seeing where you would put him considering all the world class players you have seen play for us down the years

He is number one in the PL era (Kenny will always be number one for obvious reasons) and for me due to what he means on a personal level due to coming from the same background and how similar his journey is to my father and grandfather etc. Someone coming from the sameish background as you and making it to the top of their field will always be inspirational to anyone, but Mo's story is extra special because even by lucks standards he should never have made it.

He represents everything great about Liverpool. Hardwork, humility and never giving up and for me bridged the gap in one of the cogs in making us go from doubters to believers along with others. By his standards this year has been horrific but its been a terrible year on a personal and football year for the whole squad and fans alike. A part of me is delusional and with a break come the summer away I still believe he can offer us something but all great things must come to an end.

Second only to Kenny. On and off the pitch.

Only Henry stands comparison n the PL era.

I’ll write something before the season out.

Wow. That is high praise indeed, considering all the greats you've watched. That means his number one then, because for me, Kenny is more than a player. What he has done for the Club and City can never be repaid. That man is above all for me.
 
Waking to a really nice, very apologetic mail taking full responsibility for the line F ups, and refunding the train and hotel costs in full, for Brighton, is a great start to this Cup Sat’day. 🕺🕺🕺

Now to hopefully take care of these plastic bleeps!

‘‘We’re on the march with Arne’s Army …..’
