jellydog Posted December 11, 2019 Share Posted December 11, 2019 (edited) Jesus curls in his second. He has certainly taken advantage of Aguero's absence. And three, with a karate chop. Edited December 11, 2019 by jellydog Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bredbury Blue Posted December 11, 2019 Share Posted December 11, 2019 Enjoyed that (apart from Mobdro going down for 10mins). Four excellent goals. We seem to always go behind at the moment but good comeback. Jesus bagged those 3 goals really well. Pleasing to see 3 academy players playing including 2 local lads. Foden looking lively in all his recent outings and making things happen. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As Spanish Dave's reported heir apparent there is every reason to give him more time. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kadilo Posted December 11, 2019 Share Posted December 11, 2019 Another excellent performance by Jesus. He is going to be a highly sought after young man in the not too distant future. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bredbury Blue Posted December 16, 2019 Share Posted December 16, 2019 (edited) Brilliant team performance and made Arsenal look so poor. All over by HT and the score flatters Arsenal. I've been criticising KdBs performances for weeks as he's been off the pace but this was a 2017/18 vintage performance. Keep playing him in that free role, not Merlin. KdB was simply everywhere and his shooting was as good as ive ever seen from him, left or right foot. Welcome back Kevin, missed you. Foden yet another excellent performance after his MOM midweek. Now we know he can play left midfield AND wide right or left - he was way better in this game on the right cutting in. Used to think he was competing with Merlin, but now he's more in form than Bernardo and Mahrez who should be worried. Just love watching him driving forwards at defenders. Another excellent game from Rodri, with Gundogen not far behind. It's nice to have some players back to their best at last. Buzzing, even on less than 3 hours sleep. And U23s beat Spurs 2v0 Bwahahahahaha. Edited December 16, 2019 by Bredbury Blue Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mrbojangles Posted December 16, 2019 Share Posted December 16, 2019 Not much to add to that Bred. Don't know if it was because we were so good or Arsenal were that bad. Either way, I'll take it. Now, do we let Leicester win next week ???? 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RickG16 Posted December 16, 2019 Share Posted December 16, 2019 Looks like it is curtains for this Pep team. It's coming to the end, without ever having won the CL and PL in the same season. IMO you can't be considered a 'great team' unless you win both in close proximity. If Liverpool do it, that is the English team which will be remembered from this era in years to come. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I can see how this taps straight into your inferiority complex. Complete denial of what you need to do in order to become an elite club and build a winning legacy. Champions League should be as important to you as the PL is to Liverpool.

I'm sure Melbourne City will tear up the A League.... 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
