De Bruyne's real value is against busses, his passing can break down any team even if they are playing a 10-0 formation. I would say there's definitely a good argument that of their midfield triumvirate of Silva/De Bruyne/Fernandinho that De Bruyne is the least valuable, but perhaps the best actual player if that makes sense.

so Raheem Sterling was again subject to despicable racism during the game yesterday. There's clear video evidence though and those sad old "fans" will surely be identified quickly and dealt with. What's interesting though is that Sterling today blamed the media for "fueling racism" with their journalism. And honestly, it's time that the likes of Sun and Mail are finally called out publicly by a player. Shame on them.

The Sun and the Daily Mail are pure cancer. And when you look at all the young black talent that England currently has you can imagine this only gets worse, so Sterling deserves a lot of credit for calling them out.

Yes! 3 points.

This is going to be an interesting weekend.

Liverpool have to beat United on Sunday to stay at the top of the League and keep pace over City who are likely to beat Everton, but I imagine theres going to be a large exhale from the Liverpool squad after managing to qualify for the CL Round of 16 by the skin of their teeth, the only real benefit is United (albeit a weak United) are coming off a less-than-stellar CL match of their own.

Looks like De Gea is staying at United, which is no surprise as Courtois took his dream job and that playing for Real Madrid is no longer all its cracked up to be at the moment. Also £400k/week is tough to turn down anywhere.

they seriously said "Raheem Sterling has answered his critics" during the broadcast today. Speechless.

Senator Clay Davis · 12-15-2018, 09:22 AM

Well it's good to know that after scoring a goal, Raheem was able to end racism.

Burnley was so frustrating to watch, but I did laugh when after 90 minutes of time wasting that Joe Hart was suddenly running to take a goal kick.

Robert Snodgrass has been a completely transformed player this season. It's been fun watching West Ham recently.

Senator Clay Davis · 12-16-2018, 09:08 AM

There's been more action and excitement in the first eight minutes of this one then the last two LFC-MUFC matches at Anfield combined.

devo22 · 12-16-2018, 09:27 AM

great goal, and well deserved.

Senator Clay Davis · 12-16-2018, 09:33 AM

Totally undeserved equalizer, but game on.

flamesfan6 · 12-16-2018, 09:33 AM

Ouch, Allison should of held on there
Man U lucky to be tied

devo22 · 12-16-2018, 09:35 AM

Alisson is easily the most overrated goalkeeper in world football. Bang average.

Senator Clay Davis · 12-16-2018, 09:39 AM

Alisson is good, but the suggestion he was better than De Gea because Milik kicked it right at him was laughable.

yeah, I expected a wonder save when I read about it and then had to laugh when I saw it.

Turning into a Mourinho dream match, nothing but corners.

Barnet Flame · 12-16-2018, 10:36 AM

Liverpool are 2-1 up and this is the front page of the BBC

flamesfan6 · 12-16-2018, 10:38 AM

3-1!!!

Senator Clay Davis · 12-16-2018, 10:40 AM

This was basically the same as the Man City-United game earlier this year, United got an undeserved goal but otherwise pretty much got battered. That midfield is beyond terrible.
