    i'm sure Mancini's post match assessment will be a gem.. 190 million pounds on the pitch for City and they're brought to their knees by a player they discarded as excess, now that's poetic.. Beller's is turning in one world class performance after another

  • Not sure just how low down our nose we can look at City given the masterclass Ngog gave us on Saturday, but poetic nonetheless!

  • Suarez from the car park...

    don't forget we had bellars before !!!

  • jpr

    Yellow boots with lightning pace. Always a good choice to lead the line. There's never a good answer for lightning pace.

  • Baldrick

    Did anyone else notice the ref do a very convincing impression of an outraged ape right in front of Micah Richards after Stevie stuck his dong of a pen away? Luis Suarez got eight matches in the sin bin for less! Outrageous behaviour!!!

  • brother jon

    I'd like to dedicate this victory to the bartenders: jessica and marissa. WE DID IT!!

  • Lis

    Very pretty names. You're going to have to watch every LFC game at the same bar with them from now on.

  • Suarez from the car park...

    It was actually Jason and Mike at the start of the evening!

  • boogerso

    say this about adam... when stevie plays holding mid, adam looks a lot better. trying to put stevie in attack and let adam tackle looks like crap. oh and BELLARS!

  • Suarez from the car park...

    still a liability.  dzeko should have had a pen off him and his dumb ass tackles from behind.

  • candaon

    What a game. Hats off to all the boys but Bellers needs to be singled out for his work rate and the crisp finish. Kenny got it right with the formation too. We seemed to have an extra man for the passing lane. Absolutely brilliant!!

  • Ryan

    I'm here!!!!! I'm here!!!!!

    ok what'd I miss?

  • fastrail

    Dude, seriously? Where have you been? We was fucking awesome, and though I hate to say this, Hart was awesome as well and I hate him today.

  • Ryan

    Oh, I know I'm a dick. Heh. I've been twisting knobs. Er, a dayjob. 

    Can we buy sale transfer moneh him and haf him for centre forward plz?

    But really, I'm stoked. Pissed I had to miss the game though. Can't wait for highlights. 

    Wembley bear, my sweet snuggly Wembley bear! Oh how I love to squuuuueeze you.  

  • fastrail

    I had to wait for the highlights as well. Stream stopped for 5 minutes, and in that 5 minutes come the 2nd goal. Fuck, that was way more depressing than missing the whole match.

  • Luis Suarez dentist

    Dirk Kuyt and Bellers were excellent today ran themselves into the ground. Next it's the scum. Come on LIVERPOOL

  • Suarez from the car park...

    WWEEEMMMMMBBBBBBBBBEEEEEEERRRRRRRR fuckin LLLEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE

  • Lis

    I fucking adore Craig Bellamy, the devilish, magnificent Welshman.

  • ejbauer11

    About f-cking time we showed some heart and fight-back. Great fucking game. 

  • purify_the_body

  • ejbauer11

  • jpr

    Just call John Henry.

  • Luis Suarez dentist

    Shit, knew I should have kept him on speed dial!!!!

  • Lis

    I bet you had him on speed dial before because you were the one who recommended we buy Downing. "Oh, he'll have 15 goals and 17 assists a season, easily".

  • jpr

    Nailed your ass, LSD. Fess up now.

  • ChrisLFC

  • purify_the_body

    We need a bit of possession now.

  • purify_the_body

    This is getting intense!!

  • Lis

    Bellamy on the ground. Oh please no. Nothing's more terrifying.

  • purify_the_body

    Dammit, not Bellamy...

  • Latortillablanca

    Craig Bellamy compensates for his lack of knees with a ginormously massive set of stones.  WELL MUTHAFUCKIN IN!!!!!!

  • jpr

    Richards gives Bellers a leetle headache.

  • purify_the_body

    He's just so good it's fucking amazing.

  • RedDownUnda

    Belllllaaaaaarrrrmmmmyyyyyyyyyyyyy!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  • purify_the_body

    Someone needs to tell our players to get in the box. We are in a losing position and need some coaching, come on...

  • Luis Suarez dentist

    Fuck it!

  • fastrail

    This is cruel to us. We deserve a lot better than this.

  • ejbauer11

    On their fucking second opportunity of the half...

  • Stream knocked out, comes back in time to see City celebrating in slow motion. Fuckkkk me.

  • Ed

    And fuck everything.

  • GoFigure

    shit...

  • Lis

    just fuck offf. all those chances we had and now this. typical.

  • purify_the_body

    That's exactly how it's done. Goddammit!!

  • GoFigure

    oh.. that was tense

  • purify_the_body

    We had that big push and didn't get a goal -- now we look a bit tired. Hope we get our second wind soon.

  • brother jon

    ...inspired even. I'm stunned over here. Keep it up...thru may.

  • Kev00

    Joe Hart is playing out of his fucking mind

  • Kev00

    and to think.. Robert Green was first choice keeper for England a year and a half ago

  • ejbauer11

    Joe hart. Seriously. I have nothing to say.

  • Lis

    Joe Hart is forbidden from playing against us ever again.

  • Jesus Christ. Joe Hart is fucking insanely good

  • Lis

    Just stop, Joe Hart.

  • ChrisLFC

    UNREAL stuff from Joe Hart!

  • Ed

    JUST STOP IT ALREADY JOE HART GODDAMMIT

  • purify_the_body

    Damn!!

  • Ed

    Jordan Henderson's first-time ball through to Bellamy was a good thing that happened. 

    Good god.

  • brother jon

    Errrrm, maybe it has been all about application. The lads look proper motivated.

  • ChrisLFC

    Are we really standing around, watching the ball?  Come on, Charlie!

  • Lis

    Aguero on for Savic. Shit just got real.

  • Suarez from the car park...

    Well, lucky goal for citeh, we played well and got the equaliser.  

    moans about the pen but he's got both hands fully outstretched and it hits both of them, it gets to the point where you're just playing goalie and hoping you don't get called for it.  No more lucky than the citeh goal.

    itchy bum time as a draw now suits them at the end of extra time. No penalty decider  in this tie.  
    We need to match their scoring....

    oh no, Aguero coming on.  perhaps a 3 man back for citeh.

  • Luis Suarez dentist

    Ok if it was a penalty how on earth did Richards not get sent off for denying a goalscoring opportunity?

  • ejbauer11

    What the f-ck were the FSC announcers talking about when saying that shouldn't be a PK b/c it bounced off his foot first. He clearly was holding his arms out to maximize possibility of blocking it. You don't usually lunge w/ your arms AND legs forward at the same time.

  • Luis Suarez dentist

    It's that old ord intent again! But Richards should be off. If it's a penalty it's a redcard.

  • purify_the_body

    Yeah, you can't do a goalkeeper save with both arms totally extended and then claim it wasn't handball just because the guy shot it into your foot first.

  • purify_the_body

    Agger was not fouled.

  • Luis Suarez dentist

    nah but it was almost the same as a handball on the line!
