FOOTBALL English Premier League 23/24 Discussion

Maguire saves us from having to watch 30 more mins of this fucking garbage. He was miles offside too, but no VAR saves the day.

Linesman didn't want to go through another half hour of that. He was directly in line with the play, should have been able to spot the offside easily. But I'll take it.

Amorim made that game more complicated than it needed to be. Playing Dalot at left back when we just signed one and playing the one we signed at right back and then taking him off at half time. Bruno in a pivot isn't working which made Ugarte's job much more difficult. Not starting Garnacho, we were better when he was on.

It didn't help him that the likes of Mainoo and Amad played poorly. Too many touches, overthinking it and playing too slow and not more direct like Garnacho was.

Dorgu apparently played quite a bit of RW early career, so him playing right wouldn't be as big of a deal if we also had a LB, but was certainly an odd choice to invert them.

Can't believe Leyton Orient didn't equalize there.

Free shot at the back post, that was a massive blown chance.

City scamming a win.

Some would say United scammed a win too haha.

We absolutely did. Big time. Especially when our last goal Maguire was a good metre offside.

 

[Super Freak]

Oh my.

Rather scam a win, then lose to Plymouth

Cheisa has been out a while hasn't he? Holy shit he was bad today.

City got the Argyle, what a shock

City got the Argyle, what a shock

Of course they do.

Salford, Leyton Orient and now Plymouth Argyle.

Meanwhile we get Arsenal, Leicester City and Fulham, all PL teams while City get League 1 and League 2 teams.

Hopefully Plymouth cause another big upset.

He's had a few decent games this season. I'd say that was an anomaly in the scheme of things but he was awful..

I don't like that Slot didn't care for the FA Cup. As an LFC fan I want us to win everything so his team selection was disappointing. At least take a few of the senior players to sit on the bench in case of emergency. Losing Gomez in the 11th minute was no excuse, what was the point of having Curtis Jones if he wasn't going to be used?

Anyway, the online reaction is a bit wild. Never seen rival fans so desperate to get their jabs in despite what clearly wasn't a priority for us.

I dunno if he didn't care. He would have fully expected that team was capable of beating Plymouth.

Front 3 was still Diaz, Jota, Chiesa. Sure it's not Salah, but that front 3 should be scoring against prem teams let alone bottom of the championship.

Maybe he just assumed those 3 would score more than Plymouth would and that would be enough.

People carrying on is to be expected though, it's a huge result in the context of both teams seasons, but at the end of the day Liverpool still have 3 trophies in play so it is what it is, and they've saved themselves several games.
