Possibly the biggest game over the last few seasons tonight.

You could argue that this could decide the title.

Man United vs Man City.

Who do you think will win? if you were a united fan, would you take the loss to avoid Liverpool winning the league?

The closest comparison for us would be if Villa and Wolves were top 2 and we had a game against one of them.

City all the way for me.

Cannot stand Klopp and I hope it all crashes and burns for him.

I like watchng City play and I admire Pep Guardiola, he seems like a really nice chap, particularly when you compare him to that idiot at Anfield.

I think that's what's swaying it for me too. Granted Liverpool have played some good stuff this year, and they are grinding out results at the moment (something you have to do to win the league). But at times this season City have been on a different level.

I think the two factors for me not wanting Liverpool to win the league are: Klopp and the fans.

I detest Klopp. He's arrogant and such a sore loser. Plus I don't get the love in for Salah, if it was any other player with the amount of 'dives' that have happened this year - they would be getting slated in the press.

I'd go for Liverpool myself, proper football club not some oil-rich geezers plaything

Not sure if it's been mentioned elsewhere but Shane Long scoring past Ben Foster after 7.6 seconds last night. That's 2 seconds quicker than the previous record (Ledley King of all people)....now this record could take a bit of beating.

edit.... This is why I don't like passing the ball backwards, because it invites the opposition to come forward and attack.

I usually support the underdog (being an Albion fan I have plenty of practice!) but I am backing Man City to win the title simply because I hate that bad loser Klopp. It would be a nightmare to see his teethy grin if Liverpool pull it off.

Man City 1-0 up.

De Gea is such a poor keeper for what's written and said about him.

Adder · « **Reply #8116 on:** April 24, 2019, 10:00:06 PM »

Such a gulf in midfield quality and cohesion and that's without de Bruyne.

What I OGS record since getting the job permanently ?

100% on the nail. Becker, Lloris are no better and Iâ€™m struggling to think of one of the top six teams whose keeper is worthy of the billing â€œWorld Classâ€ and there isnâ€™t one, imo.

Absolutely the right result last night. Would have loved to have seen Klippety Klopps face when Silva scored the first......

Pogba was poor, strolling around like some 'billy big boots'...... men against boys

Manuel Neuer has been the best goalkeeper in the world for about the last ten years. You rarely hear about him because he doesn't play in the Premier League.

Top finish from Rondon...2-2...

gavinrussell · « **Reply #8124 on:** May 04, 2019, 09:53:54 PM »

The dive from Fabhinio...definitely a 9.5...
