A very good performance from start to finish. Could have easily been 6 or 7 had we been a bit more ruthless and or if VAR gave subjective overturns to teams outside Manchester.
They should void both UEFA competitions tbh.
He's part of the reason but we're the complete package. In games like today in particular, when we're going to dominate the game, it's so difficult for sides to attack us. We pin sides back (thanks to Fabinho and our midfield in general) and sides often have to resort to going long and VVD will dominate pretty much every striker in the air and beat them in a foot race, and then you have Alisson willing to come 40 yards from goal to sweep up too.
That's when Opta started recording those stats, yes. Obviously we'll never know but I suspect it dates back a lot longer than 12 years. It's mental to think that across 95 minutes Palace didn't have a single touch in our area. Not even a deflection, a flicked header from a long ball or cross. Nothing.well, first time since 2008.
Is that when records began?
It's not that strong. Wait until you hear Curtis Jones speak.
They've still got a bang average defence and a **** goalkeeper.
I hope this is as accurate as your shout that Utd would be champions this year rob
They were all socially distanced rob, don't worry!So it looks like we’re definitely going to be able to add Liverpool title celebrations to the beaches and the protests for the second wave causes
It might seem odd but I'm kind of glad we won it while we weren't playing. It would have been strange to watch the players celebrate in an empty stadium, where as it's not uncommon for teams to win titles when they weren't playing. It turns out that the squad met up at a hotel to watch the game together so at least they're going to have the chance to celebrate together still.
