Liverpool Fans Aim Brutal Dig at Man City With Savage Anfield Chant
Liverpool supporters took aim at Manchester City with a brutal chant at Anfield, referencing the club’s controversial 115-charge case.
City faced a hostile atmosphere during their visit to Liverpool, with home supporters eager to remind Pep Guardiola’s side of the recent verdict concerning alleged breaches of Premier League financial rules.
One chant quickly caught attention online, with Liverpool fans singing: “You haven’t won a trophy since 1976.”
The taunt refers to the possibility that Manchester City could lose recognition for trophies won during the period covered by the charges if the relevant titles were affected by any eventual sanctions.
Liverpool supporters have long been frustrated by the case, particularly because the two clubs battled closely for the Premier League title during Jürgen Klopp’s time at Anfield. Liverpool finished second behind City in both the 2018–19 and 2021–22 seasons.
The Anfield crowd also greeted City with loud boos, while some supporters sang “Going down, going down” in reference to the potential consequences the Manchester club could face.
What punishment could Manchester City face?
Manchester City continue to maintain their innocence and are pursuing an appeal against the verdict described in the report. The final outcome and any potential sanctions remain subject to the legal process.
Possible punishments discussed in connection with the case include substantial fines, points deductions, transfer restrictions and, in the most serious scenarios, relegation or expulsion from the Premier League.
For now, the football world awaits further developments, while Liverpool fans have made their feelings about their rivals unmistakably clear.
