I would imagine that a large number of fans would have been massively deflated when they saw the lineup. Your heart wants your team to win, but your brain looks at that starting 11 and says we will need everything to go in our favor. 8 minutes in and we could tell they had a man advantage.

That team we started, and finished with, was nowhere near the best 11 we can put out from the current squad. I'm pretty sure that a fair number expected us to get beaten today when the line up popped up. There were a few that were crap and there were a few that are just not good enough to make up the difference when we are down a bunch of players. You don't think Klopp would have been happy with buying Wirtz, Barcola and Izak? They all had bloody good track records, but have failed to meet any expectations as of yet.

Agreed, but the standard of refereeing is much better.

The Guehi decision was just mind boggling. The linesman was less than 10 yards away, and he couldn't tell the ref that he handled the ball twice? What really boils my piss is the inconsistent refereeing. Why is Kavanagh not being grilled for ignoring the yellow card wave by the Cheaty player? Did any of our players, or the manager mention any of this post match, or is the risk of a fine that much of a deterrent? Grav gets a 2nd yellow for a nothing foul, but the Cheaty players were allowed to MMA our lads, and got nothing. The PL can just f*** off. If City aren't penalized into some form of oblivion, it's time to give up on the top level of English football for that reason, and the ridiculous officiating. All of this with Kavanagh after watching that abomination of a ref in the Spurs game. Shaw runs 15-20 yards to shove the player off the pitch and gets a yellow. f***ing joker refs every f***ing week.

There is zero chance we get Olise.

He'll be fresh for Wednesday.

I'm done. Off to watch Serie A.

It's ok. We'll get a letter of apology on Wednesday. How the f*** do they justify these refereeing inconsistencies?

It's easy when you have 12 men on the pitch, and your opponent is playing with 8 men.

f*** off football. Time to walk away.

The lads should just walk off. This is a f***ing disgraceful performance by this referee.

We have no recognized central attacker.
