Keep your reactions to that cracker coming in, we'll have the managers for you soon.
A few contentious decisions to be discussed, no doubt.

I'm so happy with the way City are playing under Pep. They create acres of space giving them so many chances to score, but they've just not been clinical enough. Jesus looked deadly when he arrived so I'm looking forward to getting him back.
Gareth in Fareham
Who is the happier after today's results then?
Manchester United climb to fifth, Tottenham get some breathing space in second, but it's still Chelsea sitting pretty at the top.

Yullaw: Looks like Man United & Arsenal are going to be 3rd & 4th while City & Liverpool will drop out of the Top4
Liz Tray: Can't believe some complaining! Power, pace, energy, chances, entertainment; not perfect quality but a great advert for the PL

Liverpool
Liverpool goal scorer James Milner on Sky Sports: “Both teams went for it. I am sure it was good for the neutrals to watch. We are disappointed that when we have been up we have not got three points. A draw was fair in the end.
“They are such a good team. They’ve got runners everywhere, they’re all sharp. It is not the easiest of days coming here. We can’t be too disappointed with a point."
Asked about his first half-challenge on Raheem Sterling, Milner said: “It was 50-50. It is one of those where you have seen them given. Lucky for me it wasn’t.”

This definitely feels like a loss... Can see Aguero returning to Spain this summer. He just isn't a Pep type of striker. Only woke up in the last 20 mins! Stones best defender today
Steve, Manchester.

It was like two boxers looking for the knockout.
John Stones was very good for Manchester City.
Manchester City 1-1 Liverpool
That was brilliant. Plenty of chances, plenty of controversy.
Thirteen shots each, but just three on target for Manchester City and four for Liverpool.

JButler: Very poor quality game, terrible advert for the top end of English football. No wonder our teams are useless in Europe.
Peter Campbell: As frustrated as I am that Liverpool didn't win, a draw was fair in an extremely intense match.
David Thackeray: It's when you see games like this that you realise how low MU and Arsenal have sunk.

What a game we have seen. It could have been 5-5.
It has been brilliant.
Both teams showed attacking flair with pace, power and intensity.
Lallana and Aguero both should have won it. 1-1 - fair result.
Manchester City 1-1 Liverpool
That's it. Catch your breath, go and have a lie down, but make sure you're up for Match of the Day to watch it all over again.
Exhilarating. But only a point apiece.
Manchester City 1-1 Liverpool
There are a lot of exhausted bodies out there, a few passes going astray.
The crowd are screaming for Manchester City to get forward, but Liverpool are defending resolutely at the death.
Bacary Sagna does manage to dig out a cross, but the visitors scramble it clear.

It should have been 2-1. What a chance.
Out of anyone on the park you would have wanted it to fall to Aguero.
