And that's down to you, the manager.

And to just forget about that, I'm sorry.

And then to forget about the last 15 minutes as well, because at the end of the day, Alisson has brought this all on Liverpool in terms of the second goal.

So...

Yeah, I think he's been a little over-positive.

Forget the last 15 and let's forget the first 45.

But for 30 minutes, we were great.

You're looking at a set-side that were bossed by Tottenham in the second half.

who were in a similar scenario as Liverpool, not as bad, but had played poorly, very poorly.

And then, as Stevie said earlier, it can only really get better.

And we know how poor City have been.

Listen, most teams have given City a game in the second half, particularly in the last couple of months.

We talked about that on Friday's show.

Even Wolves at the Etihad, when City were 2-0 up.

Liverpool's fight for the Champions League might be saved by the fifth spot.

because that's where they are United are above them now Chelsea have been getting wins under their new manager and they had 30-35 minutes of really good football but still lost the game so and when he talked about I think he was getting caught up a little bit with the language but when he called City the best team then he corrected himself because they're far from the City of old had that been the City of old which I know it's not it's hypothetical but had that been City at the pump

that Liverpool team today would have been absolutely taken apart.

It would have been over at half-time, wouldn't it?

Because City are not killing teams off in the first half of games when they're bossing it.

And that's what's been coming back to bite them on the backside.
