Not this defence it doesn;t.
Lewis, Akanji, Ake and some no mark keeper are hardly their mainstays.
The problem is they always fix the draw for revenue purposes so we get them in the two-legged semi.
Soft cnut Rodri trying to look hard.
City players kicking and shoving players with no punishment.
Football is back.
Football is back.
As much as I’d rather City won, how did Rodri get away with kicking out AND raising his hands on a player?!
kdb is so efficient. should have been a goal.
e- and again!
e- and again!
KDB is the best crosser of the ball I’ve seen since Beckham
Can't wait for him to sign for us when we get more money than City.
Milner sent to an early retirement by Palmer.
Keeper diving to the side when the ball was at his feet and trying to make it look like he saved a worldie 
Nat Phillips when Ramsey is on the bench?
Mahrez has become such an ordinary player
Darwin
Nunez No offside to save him this time
No offside to save him this timeAbout Rodri's kick - do people think VAR would ask the ref to take a look? Or ignore it?
Also, would he have done it with VAR watching?

KDB will put up numbers cause his delivery is so good but he's miles off it mentally since before the world cup
But it’s just a continuation. Doesn’t seem to matter who they bring in it’s the same
Darwin is going to have a very impressive compilation of misses this season. I can't decide which one is my favourite so far.
The downgrade from Mane to Nunez is really stark.
Nunez is quite bad isn’t he. Think we dodged a bullet with that one.
Imo I noticed City getting a bit lazy with it. Your play became one dimensional with KDB constantly getting into the inside wide position and constantly spamming balls to Haaland. It’s an understandable habit to fall into
Agree, we haven't been on it really since the derby, its all ponderous, slow and then try a ballfor Haaland, very one dimensional.
But KDB is very I dunno whingey even by his own standards, giving out about passes 2 yards away from him etc..
The more time Nunez is given on the ball the higher the chance of making bad decisions.
Nunez again
Andy Carrol level's of performances so far from Nunez
Is it just me or does anyone else absolutely despise KDB? Throwing up his hands at every given moment. Whiney cnut!
Nunez is still a donkey, the WC didn't magically change that.
KdB is very pink already, he's going to be dangerous.

Love the chaos Nunez brings
Maaan Nunez is gash.
He'll be kicking himself at half time but will most probably miss.

fecksake, third time he's done that, does he think the corner flag's the goal or something. Scores these chances in friendlies against fecking AC Milan and whoever in games I never get chance to see, and then does these things in the next. Boy needs to fix up.
They conceded 0.68 goals per game in the Premier League last season, and have conceded 1 per game this season. They got 2.45 points per game last season, and have 2.29 this season.
Haaland may score a lot, but they look like a significantly weaker and more vulnerable team with him.
Nunez is frustrating. But I'm enjoying him toying with City's back line. He's definitely causing chaos in there and Elliot is taking up advantageous positions from that chaos.
One thing you can say loudly about Nunez is he misses a feck load of chances. The other thing you also have to say, quietly on Redcafe obviously, is that he does score goals. Usually meaningful ones.
From the little bits I’ve seen it’s been a good cup tie. Both sides carrying a threat.
If Nunez could improve his finishing he’d be one of the best goal scorers around. Always in good positions but he struggles when he’s got more time on the ball.

Nunez is one of those players always right place at the right time but shanks more than he hits clean. Reminds me of Cavani when he had the same reputation, used to make all those amazing runs and then fluff his lines but still rack up a decent number. Prime Cavani, Nunez and Sterling would just about drive a fan insane, seasonal xg would be about 200 but actual goals would be about 60.
Liverpool are jammy gits. Never seen a team escape so many big chances against them.
I think he misses a lot more than scores though. If he scores some of the chances he’s had then he’ll be on double figures.
Wouldn’t anybody who improved their finishing be one of the best goal scorers around? It’s not as if Nunez is a level down from elite, there is so much distance between he and the best goal scorers a round it’s not even funny
He’s an absolute donkey mate. So chuffed they signed him.
