What a performance by Chicharito. Could be a season changing result. I thoughr City were outstanding despite the scoreline looking like a dicking.

Apparently Dalglish has been put in charge of identifying January transfer targets; is this the beginning of the end for Roy?

That header was sublime. We looked very dangerous on the break in the first half but sat back way too much in the second half.

Second half was a poor display. We could not hold onto the ball in midfield. That is an area we need to strengthen for me. Replace Scholes with a Xavi like player (easier said than done).

not tooo dissapointed about ysterday tbh. The sending off was the correct descion we was alwaysgoing to struggle. We were better team until about the 60th minute IMO then we ran out of steam. Though Fabregas and Nasri were awesome for arsenal they deserved the win but im poud be a city fan after yesterday. Anybody who says the players are just in it for the mone should watch that game yesterday everyone of the players was good (well apart from barry) Yaya Toure is going to be immense when hes fully fit and Ballotelli showed touches of class when he came on. Silva s getting bette and better with every game too. Think Aresnal are deffo in the race now. All of the top 4 have got a chance at the title i think

Considering that Dalglish hasn't been involved in front line football for years then yes, if it's true, I would say the writing is on the wall for Roy. Dalglish was a sublime footballer and, as is often forgotten, won the league title with two different clubs. He's forgotten more about football than we'll ever know. However he's been out of the picture for ages. Whilst it would be sensible to gauge his views, if he is trusted more than Hodgson with respect to player recruitment, it's a massive indictment on the affable Liverpool manager.

And a massive indictment on the new board.

Maybe a sign that they will do things like American clubs do, and the coach is a coach not a manager.

I don't see how someone who has spent a large part of the last ten years trundling round golf courses can get Liverpool out of the mess they're in.

Think he has been out of the picture by choice, I think he thought he was done with management.
