Which dressing room has he gone into?
Well, maybe last season because it felt so easy for them.
We maybe didn't see performances like that.
You mentioned the atmosphere in the crowd.
But in terms of actually if City go on to win the title and they come from behind and it goes to the wire, it may actually feel better than winning it last season.
It almost felt done at this time.
But I echo what Gary mentioned there, the midfield.
That was where it was won and lost, the difference in quality there also.
And I think Pep Guardiola called it on.
in the you know after after the last game so we have to win you don't normally see a manager say that and put that pressure sort of onto his players where he felt like a draw would be a defeat and then they got the required performance it felt like it was a it was a cup final for city and that's not saying liverpool didn't give everything but there was just something extra about city tonight where it felt like they were all out had to be a win and you could just see that in the desire and the quality of the football
It is, and he's right to mention, you know, listen, I said a few weeks ago, I think it was probably six to eight weeks ago, Liverpool drew away at Arsenal, and it felt like a defeat, listening to Liverpool's support, because I think that maybe put City two points clear, and the feeling was if you let City get away from you, you're never going to catch them.
And you think, away at Arsenal, you know, a draw is a good result, not a bad result.
Now, a defeat anyway is never a good result, so losing here...
Going into this game, the talk was Liverpool can go 10 points.
A lot of the talk was Liverpool, Liverpool.
A lot of the talk over the next few days in the press will be Man City.
Man City are back in the race and they now have favourites to win the league.
Liverpool need to just take the medicine, just relax, calm down, play the FA Cup game or whatever happens, whatever team he picks.
But then get to, I think it's Brighton, Liverpool play next.
Four points clear.
