this.

Liverpool showed the blueprint on how to 'compete' and some times win against City. You need a fit fast front 3 that close the ball down and are willing to attack as soon as they get the ball. The dont win the ball back everytime and recycle like Peps Barca teams, but the Liverpool blokes created enough kaos at the front half of the pitch to make City look ordinary.

FFS they have John Stones back there hes almost slow enough to play for Chelsea.

Chelsea/Spurs/United with relatively stagnant traditional centre forwards dont match up well with City. A full strength Arsenal probably would.............right up until Sanchez left.


Its interesting hearing the Sanchez comments about his attitude. The dude from Dortmund youre trying to bring in is every bit the same diva isnt he?
