I honestly can’t get my head around Liverpool fans wanting that last minute winner to have stood. That would have been Giggs 99 all over again. They’d just have so much belief and adrenaline from that I could see them winning the quadruple whereas now they know they’ve failed at what they’ve been talking about for months. Spurs deserved it over the two legs particularly considering the injuries and squad depth. And why would anyone want to face City in the final, should we get there? I can take losing to Spurs, they’re a good club, good fans and they haven’t cheated to get where they are. If they win it fair fucks to them, good manager, players and club. Fuck City. Fuck Corrupt Money and financial doping.
And furthermore Spurs will be desperate to win or take a point today as they need it for Top 4 but lets not be throwing around ridiculous assertions that if they rest some players it would be a disgrace, because only a hypocrite would say that. We did it in 2005, we did it last year FFS. They are three games away from winning the biggest cup in European competition, with a number of winnable games left to secure top 4, and a squad decimated with injuries, and what, you want them to rush people back from injuries? All put their bodies on the line for a game that they’re already up against it in?
They’re a professional team and will do their best, we’ll all be supporting them today but lets not start criticising them for something’s we would do and have done.
But Spurs will go into this game full of confidence and on a high. City, meanwhile know they have to win and are facing the team who just crushed all their hopes despite being down to bare bones.
We should all be grateful to Spurs for showing other teams the way - get at City and you have a chance, turn up defeated and you’re fucked.
And people saying City won the game are talking out of their arse. They knew they had to win by 2. Spurs knew they could lose by 1. That’s not City winning the game. That’s them failing at their objective and Spurs succeeding.
