Thought the thing with the photographer was a bit much/cringe myself, but they all love it when Klopp does his first pumping nonsense at the end of games. At least be consistent if you're going to keep coming with the celebration police schtick.

Have been away from this forum for a bit, but came here to celebrate the well-deserved and important win over our rivals, but I see the forum hasn't changed and we're not discussing the game but the celebration

Carragher said the win was bigger for City than Arsenal. Used to rate him but what an absolute clown comment.

 

[GLITCH]

I think you can only be this bothered about the way a team celebrates a vital win against a title rival when you wanted that team to lose. I don't recall such uproar from the media when Liverpool celebrated a draw against West Brom.

Clearly bitter but I can see what he means *assuming* City wins tonight puts them above us on GD and assuming they win their other game in hand they'll be above everyone. Also probably based on how City usually finish seasons. A lot of assumptions going on but I can see why he'd say this.

City dropping points tonight changes everything though.

I think our position at the moment is great. Allows us to take it game by game without all the headlines, while the pressure is on klopp/guardiola. Although the media will trash us whenever they get the chance

 

[MauveGunner]

The more we annoy pundits, the more afraid they are of us.

 

[Yousif Arsenal]

What we should do is go to winning if we want to win this title because city are back to their usual self and Liverpool will keep winning yesterday was only second L this season. Long way to go

 

[Dennis_Bergkamp_10]

Wonder if Jamie had an opinion on this. This exceptional result sent Liverpool to 9th place in the table at the time. ****ing tosser.

 

[Sapient Hawk]

Would the invincibles have given a second thought about what people thought about us celebrating a win against our rivals?

This man doesn’t seem to think so.

F*cking legend!! He'd have taken on the entire United team if it were up to him.

He'd be dead, but so would half of United by the time he's done the absolute nutter

It's not an Arsenal win if the Celebration Police aren't out in force!!

Also, whenever gobby Pool fans pipe up about us overcelebrating, I always have this delightful reminder for them

 

[Grandolph]

Raya could probably have done better at the goal, but overall very good. Excellent at collecting high crosses. The media will highlight every error he makes, while hailing their beloved allison who look like a 70 year old with the ball at his feet.

 

[BergMan]

We can discuss the game. I thought Havertz did much better than Jesus would have done. Konate couldn’t handle him, not physically nor his runs. Havertz was dragging their defence all over the place. Havertz was instrumental yesterday. Maybe there is something to playing Havertz up top in the big games.

 

[DJ_Markstar]

Considering what happened in previous seasons, Liverpool only taking 2 points off Arsenal out of a possible 12 in the last 2 seasons is most certainly celebration-worthy!

We used to get slapped around like @GDeep™'s misses by both Pool and City and in the last 9 points available against both we've taken 7, that's an enormous improvement.

Still remember that 0-2 at home a few seasons back when that ***** Jota celebrated the first goal, heart-wrenching stuff knowing how much better they were then.

We're been infiltrated by glory glory spudlings. The new narrative is that the league is **** anyway.

Nah man if we lost against Pool that's our season more or less over bar the CL, City would have been looking good regardless of the result. Even an eternal optimist like me couldn't see us catch Liverpool from 8 points out with just over a third of the season left, and we'd be miles back on City as well. Was a huge huge huge result for us and was convenient for City but nowhere near as important for them.

It gives City a clear path for going top tho provided they won their two games in hand. I think that's what he means

 

[lomekian]

He’s a prick fullstop. Should be on bein sports with that other hairy **** Richard Keys after spitting on that little girl.

We do over celebrate at times though. I’d just like us to be a bit more ice cold after these kind of wins. Show the football world that it’s just a normal day at the office for a massive club like ours. Save the party for the locker room.

Its a balance - the team needs some emotion otherwise we end up with the sterile vibe from earlier in the season. I think some of the prior criticism was valid as it showed it was a team of aspirants rather than winners (mind you, only Jorgi and Havertz have won anything significant before so don't know what people expect), but we just beat the team top of the league to keep our season alive, so perfectly merited in this situation.

Half of it is just anti-arteta jealousy because he's younger than all of them.

I know what he means and I understand you being charitable to it but when you actually look at what he said its Clownshow Carragher with a hot take I'm afraid, there's no way the result was more important for City than us.

Say Liverpool won yesterday and City win both their games in hand, City would be two points off with KDB back (not a disaster) and we'd be 8 off (complete disaster and 99% out of the title race). Even if they got a win and draw from those two you'd back City to make up 4 points on this overachieving Liverpool side.

 

[RunTheTrap]

I liked how we gave Liverpool their first proper loss of the season. No referee drama or flukes. We beat Liverpool fairly. I don’t count that corrupted Sp**s game as a loss.
