Great finish, love Mane, but Dyche will go mad at that.

Thats as bad as the Wolves foul on Dubs.

For a keeper who's supposed to have good kicking, he was very succesful at finding touch.

I think he's all right. He's not good enough defensively to be a reliable wing back, but neither is Kenedy. The LWB problem is denying us a proper look at Almiron, so I understand and share the frustration.

Both our first two goals went under his body. I reckon Alison or Emerson saves both of them. Fabianski, Lloris, Dubs, or Heaton stops at least one of them. The second was a shot straight at him parried centrally to the scorer. Most keepers flick that up over the bar. It doesn't happen to us often but JUSTICE WAS DONE.

Bad decisions in "evening themselves out" shocker. I'm sure a PFM like Danny Mills approves.

If someone else touches the ball it's a new phase innit. Perhaps the BBC should study the dogso law first because that was far more egregious.

Get the feck in! Only three points off "seventh placed" Everton. More than anything though, we wiped the smile off the face off that feckin mackem. Get your rave on this you fucking twat. Absolutely priceless win. Thanks a million lads!

Bollocks stats are bollocks stats.

YES YES YES YES THIS IS BETTER THAN THE ARSENAL 4-4!!!!

ENGLAND'S NUMBER ONE MY ARSE!!!!!! HA HA HA HA HA HA !!!!!!

What a goal! Pick that out you mackem cunt!

We are also the only team to lose a penalty due to encroachment.

Here we go, back to the ol' one red against us every 100 games.

Isn't something about not having double punishment? So you get the pen but not the red card if its in the box. What I don't understand is that Pickford wasn't booked.

Shit pen. Has to be a yellow for Pickford though. In the old days its red for DOGSO. Bugger 0-2. Looks like they want it more.

Great pace from Almiron. If Perez stays far post there, he have a tap in.

Great finish.

I'd say that's a blatant red. Extended leg nowhere near the ball straight into the knackers.

I'm more interested in the handball penalty we didn't get against Man U. It was 100 times more blatant.

7. They had the chance to go 10 points clear when they played City in January and lost. I thought Liverpool "bottled" that game, i.e., they played an unambitious, uncreative midfield three that prevented them from exposing what defensive failings City have. Maybe it set the tone for what has happened since, I don't watch closely enough, but it was weak and a million miles from anything I would call "heavy metal football". It was a chance to put the boot on the neck and they lost the game without trying to take it. The great "bottle job" the press never talk about was when Ferguson let City win the PL the first time. Four games to play, Man U are five points ahead of Man City and get this, 4-2 up against Everton in match #35. They then give away 2 goals and 2 points in ten minutes and then lose to City with an ultradefensive lineup and barely a shot on target in a derby match. I think it could have taken City much longer to make that final step up without Ferguson (Ferguson! Not Moyes, Not Van Gaal) opening the door in this way. https://www.11v11.com/league-tables/premier-league/18-april-2012/

The match started at 2:30am for me, but my half-asleep self thought we were out-thought and out-competed. Only one match, so move on, etc.

West Ham pretty neat with it and pressing high when they don't have it. Noble into the book.

Aye, it's not as if any of their players ever scored a hat-trick in a World Cup Final.

You'd expect to defend a loopy ball in that drops. With pace its more difficult, but that was hanging up there.
