Strength there

Reminded me of John Dahl Tommasson stealing Inzaghis goals back in the Milan days when they were boss.

Good turn from DCL that. Keep it going blues.

 

[TheBigIguana]

May I suggest when a free kick is too narrow to cross and too deep to shoot we just don't do either

 

[LinekersLegs]

I know it probably won’t last but quite enjoying this atm

 

[PITA]

Cannot believe he's stolen that you know

If he hadn’t he would be accused of lacking a goalscorer’s instinct.

 

[blueblueday]

so you'll be happy for us to be in the bottom 3 tomorrow then ?

Nope but I sure don't like seeing that gap at the top widen either. Watching their lucky goal today made me nearly fetch up my lunch. My anxiety grows as it increasingly looks like the title is theirs already. If u don't feel that nausea then I envy you.

 

[Saint Domingo]

Why couldn’t we just do this against Sheffield United rather than handing the league to the kopites.

 

[Death]

people.saying DCL needed that more than Coleman. I beg to differ.

 

[JobForTheMoyes]

You give City a game by taking the game to them and disrupting their flow and don't let them get comfortable, high pressing, tough challenges and get people up the pitch to support any counter.

We've been waiting to concede since the first minute. Crowd seem flat as well.

You either go into a shell and counter, like Mourinho, or play powerful and direct, which seems more effective. Like when Heynkes’ Bayern destroyed them (before Pep came in and ruined that team!)

Don’t think we can do either well enough!

I’ve been sucked in. You’d think we’d know better

 

[DanB90]

DCL is actually suited to these games, due to his workmanlike graft upfront.

It’s against your lesser teams where his strikers instincts let him down.
(I understand the irony of this post given that he’s just scored).

 

[BirkenheadBlue]

Great chip from Coleman.

Got absolutely no problem with DCL making 100% sure. The lad gets pelters for not being ruthless enough - well that’s ruthlessness.
