Here are our tweets from today’s game at Eastlands as the reds and Man City played out a goalless draw.

Liverpool team to face Man City: Reina, Carragher, Skrtel, Agger, Insua, Kuyt, Lucas, Mascherano, Maxi, Gerrard, Babel. ^KL

Subs: Cavalieri, Torres, Benayoun, Aquilani, Riera, Aurelio, Kelly. ^KL

Almost kick off time. Big game in the race for 4th.

00:01 Here we go. Come on red men! ^JD

06:00 Bright start from the reds. Agger and Skrtel could be a set piece threat.

07:45 Gerrard looking good. Two fantastic crosses that just lacked the final touch

RT @bobanddan: LFC must get a draw. A win would be wonderous, but at least a draw. Huge fixture this morning.

12:40 This is a very positive start from Liverpool. Even Insua creating space.

22:00 Come on Ryan, we’re playing in red 😉 Still 0-0

39:00 Liverpool gone off the boil a little bit. Mascherano on a yellow now.

40:28 Nando warming up on the touchline. Great reception from the reds inside the ground. It’s been too long Fernando..

43:30 Decent corner from Gerrard, Skrtel rises, but puts the ball wide.

45:00 Gerrard also picks up a yellow card in trying to hunt down the ball.

HT: 0-0. Started well, ended a bit messy. What’s your half time thoughts?

RT @cannizzaro: @Liverpool_FC We were poor with our passing and control. Big improvement needed in 2nd half. ^JD

RT @princesscouser: @liverpool_fc brightest part of our first half was Nando warming up on touchline! – Probably right there. ^JD

45:01 Here we go. Second half underway at Eastlands ^JD

48:17 Good corner from Man City, Adebayor lurking but a good clean catch from Reina.

53:00 Babel down on the ground. Taken a ball in the face. One of his best headers actually.

62:43 Liverpool sub. Yossi returns after 7 weeks out, replacing Rodriguez.

66:56 Ex red Bellamy on for Wright-Phillips.

75:01 Babel Off… Torres ON.

79:12 Fantastic tackle from Skrtel. Adebayor looked clean through after Skrtel initially made a mistake.

86:10 Aquilani on for Kuyt….

90:01 5 minutes injury time coming up. Still 0-0 if you’re just joining.

92:00 Ref just given Torres the reds 6th yellow card. For a shoulder barge. Absolute joke of a ref.

FT: 0-0. Man City and Liverpool both poor and lacking in invention. Surprised Man City as the home side opted for one up front.

What the fans said on Twitter

colinmercer: @Liverpool_FC Poor, no ideas on how to break down the Man City back line…

nickolarse: @Liverpool_FC giving the ball away to easily, to many nervous moments lacking anybody with quality. Shi**ing myself.

princesscouser: @liverpool_fc brightest part of our first half was Nando warming up on touchline!

BrianHugh: @Liverpool_FC Schoolboy football!!! Too many errors…. Gerrard looking like the incredible Sulk again….. Release the Torres!!!

fionndavenport: @Liverpool_FC Maxi just not up to speed. All well & good building from back but Gerrard looks forlorn and lonely.

matt4dsaviour: @Liverpool_fc Some players look shaky and we are giving away possession cheaply

jim_pennington: @Liverpool_FC Reina is the lord…..rejoice and be glad!

jim_pennington: @Liverpool_FC Yossi AND Nando…..just how it’s supposed to be.

CAuggoYaDig: @Liverpool_FC zero people on the team could pass today. Mascherano I think was the only who completed a pass longer than right next 2 him

samhines: @Liverpool_FC I’m happy with the point, and having Torres and Benayoun is big. Skrtel was brilliant as well.

lobby_bo: @Liverpool_FC boring game… I’m so disappointed -.-
