They do.

Only certain teams get to score offside goals though, and only certain handball are called.

It is what it is though, well played to Spurs.

:mjlol: Breh you're a parody now

Tell that to Swansea. Tell that to Arsenal

Funny when VAR is used on the same night Mane is actually awarded a goal that was disallowed and Sterling's is ruled out


But but but we need VAR

How does VAR justice feel :mjlit:. . burns right

Thrre are too many Great scenarios
Barca possible winning another treble
Liverpool possible double
Young Ajax winning it after decades before they break up the squad
Tottenham the dark horse that nobody care

This wouldn't be terrible, but since we've seen it before it'd be uninteresting and somewhat predictable

Where is this "Sane should've started" shyt from? :gucci:
Have y'all watched him the past few games he's been featured in? Always trying to do too much with the ball and ends up losing it

City's best front 3 right now is what started yesterday

True, B Silva been awesome all season

I do like Sane though, so good and will improve

Mourinho stumped his development tbh, by first signing Ibra and then Lukaku, which shifted him out wide, where he ended playing FB half the time. Barring the pace, Rashford doesn't have the guile to be a wing forward like Martial is. His best asset is his movement, which has been evident since his debut and more noticeable when he plays upfront, oppose to being shifted out wide. I cannot remember who said it in here, but Rashford is at the Sterling pre Pep stage.

People won't admit it,but Sterling's movement has been A1 since his debut under Brodgers. But I guess Pep will get that credit from others, but if you watched Liverpool when they finished 2nd with Suarez and Sturridge, Sterling was always getting himself into wonderful positions. The Arsenal game at Anfield shows that.

One thing with Rashford is that he has time on his side, 21, but from next season needs to crack on IMO. Has great pace, movement and a great shot.

I am Sterling stan (he was born in my families area in Jamaica) but after that season with Suarez he fell off but that is excepted due to his age - he was like 18/19, but his finishing and movement were not that great and not consistent. Coupled with XP and Pep he massively improved.

Pep improves tons of players, so I wasn't surprised - Sterling having his best season of his career, between him and VVD for player of the year.

Virgil is first Ballon d'Or-quality Premier League centre-back we've seen since Vidić. Even if Liverpool don't win the league, I don't think there should be any debate.

:what: Have you seen Spurs FB's play? Pace on the wings is the best way to expose us get the CB's out of position as well. Even Adama Traore gives our fullbacks the shakes and dude is just certified sprinter masquerading as a footballer.

Sane should have started over Mahrez in the first leg. That's not debate. Starting over B. Silva, however, I don't think so, especially with how effective Bernardo has been on the RW. Perhaps swaps Bernardo for D. Silva in the center of the park.

Spurs FBs are suspect
