salah was kept shut and it was effective. would've been better sounding if it was 2-0 rather than -1

Maureenho did his job well again and Klopp made it easy for him by having Lovren in instead of Matip. We were too poor in the first half over the whole park.

True.  Young and Bailly did great jobs defensively.

The MLS has officially been Zlataned.  Couldn't have asked for a better debut for Zlatan and the LA derby.

Not happy that we let him go but at the same time this has been a great move for MLS and soccer/football in the states.  At the end of the day I'm happier to see him here than at Manchester still if I'm being honest…looking at the bigger picture and the benefit of the sport on a global level.  Let's just hope he can stay injury free.  Zlatan doesn't get injured, injuries get Zlataned.

wow, Liverpool up 2-0 already vs Citeh…I know it's still early in the clash but Liverpool does seem to have City's number this year.

[manufc10]

Annnnnd it's 3-0 lol.

[manufc10]

This is quite impressive how Liverpool have managed to shred Man City apart at home this year.

I bet over 2.5 first half goals, £165 better off 

[Dion]

Absolutely brilliant result for LFC!

Not a shit evening. Not done yet though.

It's going to be a tough game in the Citeh Stadium for sure. I find it remarkable that Klopp is the coach with the most wins against Pep: seven wins out of 13 meetings.

[neph93]

I think Pep said himself that City are the perfect team for Liverpool to play. 'Pool can punish them like no other team can. It'll be backs to the wall in six days time though.

[manufc10]

Yep…still not feeling entirely comfortable if I'm  Liverpool fan right now.  They needed more goals.  Thankfully they didn't allow City to get an away goal.

I’m much more comfortable than I thought I’d be after a first leg against City, given that it’s only the half way stage. If you’d offered me a 3-0 home win beforehand I’d have bitten your hand off. Fekk it, I’d have taken any win plus a clean sheet.

It’s a great start, that is all.

[manufc10]

Oh without a doubt, not trying to discredit it at all and honestly you couldn't have asked for a better first leg.  I'm just saying that it's Man City and they can score goals in their sleep so Liverpool just needs to keep this same mentality going into the second leg.  Don't let up…don't get too comfortable.  I'm pulling for them for sure.
