Great photos by Pyschadelic Casual...........As a kid in the 1950's born under the shadow of the Platt Lane End my Grandad used to sing a song " Roll along good old City Roll along to the Top of the League where you belong ,(then it gets a bit foggy) United may be good " ..........cannot remember the end but I'm pretty sure it didn't finish but they are fuckin shite.
 
No, why?
I see it as a cherry on the cake.
Retaining the PL title alone is immense. You need to have an extraordinary group of personalities to achieve that after a centurian season
and an outstanding leader to handle such a bunch of warriors.

What if KDB and Mendy will have a fully fit season??

It's extremely difficult for any competitor to beat our mentality and Watford will need the match of their lives to achieve that.

Can't wait. Already fist pumping as a warm up ;-)
Great post, cheers Pauli

One of my dads first memories was of being in town with his mum and a big commotion going on outside the shop they were in. She took him outside and the team were going past with the cup. Maybe he embellished it a little over time but I love to think of him on the coverage of the parade somewhere

I am not in the slightest bit nervous about tomorrow and I am fully expecting us to cruise to a 3 or 4-0 win

Not sure if that is good or bad !!!
 
been so euphoric following the title win i've forgotten to be nervous for tomorrow's game. watford are no mugs with some very tricky players, cant take them lightly. But if we play like we know we can we should have too much for them.

To be fair Pep did such a good job rubbishing the questions and stressing our innocence we probably came out ahead.

Yes but he shouldn't have to, should he ? He is always being put on the defensive press conferences by journos stirring the shit, digging and chipping away at the club. The constant negative line of questioning. Even then they mis-report what he actually says. They are snidey bastards the lot of them. Klopp's pressers, by comparison, are like having your mates round for a few beers and a laugh. The atmosphere is totally different and almost jovial. Like others have said, our PR team need to get tough and get the press brought to heel. Pep should be free to ignore any questions off limits and journos warned for the future if they stray.
 
Can't wait to get back to the football tomorrow after all the rubbish in the press this week
