Liverpool and ManU will be looking to snap out of their funk on Monday. Liverpool has a favorable matchup against the bottom of the league opponent. ManU faces a winless squad that is struggling with key missing pieces. Since they are playing each other one of them will be getting a favorable result!

I'd wager a Salah brace and 3-1 win for Liverpool.

Yeah, taking two points from two games against teams who will likely not finish in the top six was the perfect start to our rope-a-dope Man City plan.

You have lots of faith in ManU scoring.

If you say you hate the state of politics in this nation and you don't get involved in it, you obviously don't hate the state of politics in this nation.

Lately, LFC has been unbelievable great at dominating possession, pelting the opposing keeper with shots, yet somehow still being down 1-0 30' into the match.

You're just lulling them into complacency. The bigger question is how many reds does Nunez get because he gets angry at every little thing

I'm hoping for a tie on Monday. That would really rustle some feathers.

I'm a long term Leeds United fan.

My fandom goes all the way back to June of 2022.

4 points in 2 games, same as Chelsea and Tottenham.

Way better than Liverpool, and WAY better than Man U.

I'm not quite there with you but I'm getting close.

I'm not only intrigued by Leeds due to the Americans there, but I'm also very surprised by the high volume of comments from Leeds fans on social media where they are welcoming new US fans with open arms. I suppose when you're not Big 6 you might take what you can get, but they seem to have a fanbase that is both extremely rabid, yet don't act like exclusive *****s to newcomers. It's a rare thing, if true.

I'll have you know that Own Goal is a scoring machine. I expect him to strike on Monday once Liverpool have taken their 4-0 lead.

1. AC Milan
2. Newcastle

4. Atletico Madrid

That's a shot to E-2 and he hit and sunk a battleship. To Tuchel and the FA. Good for him.

By the way, the FA handed out the actual punishments.

Tuchel got a 35000 fine and a 1 game touchline ban. Conte got a 15000 fine and no ban. They are both appealing and the penalties are suspended pending the appeal.

They are getting off light.

Didn't conte get a red card? Why no ban at least before appeal?

It's not required for staff.

I would have given Tuchel a 3 game stadium ban and Conte a 1 game stadium ban. Tuchel should have seen a second yellow for running through the opposing technical area on the 2nd goal. And then the red for VC on the handshake. Conte a second yellow for his part.

Probably a fair ruling but anyone would lose their **** a little witnessing blatant cheating. Spuds gifted an undeserved point (again) and Chelsea lost two, and it's on the officials. Multiple of them should be looking for a new job.

Why is Aston Villa wearing a man city kit? How hard is it to stick to a teams colors.

Has been a fun game. Neither team has a midfield providing any defensive resistance

It's funny because City has a red and black kit this year.
