Premier League Games 26/27 December

Beautiful outcome but no way he meant that haha

 

[jimharri]

Good strike that

A fluke, I'm guessing.

 

[Mancityus]

Just 5 points separating 2nd and 9th. If Liverpool can slow down, then we are looking at 9 teams capable of challenging.

Who will slow them down ? Spuds who thrashed our fearful manager also lost to them.

 

[Metalartin]

Only De Bruyne has enough credit in the bank, to have meant to have scored there.

 

[discopop]

Ha ha my spite Acca has worked a treat that’s the scum and Chelsea doomed on the altar of 2 quid throwaway

Could be anybody. That's the point. Teams are dropping unexpected points

Now you've offended the Dipper Sycophant Fraternity.

They dropped against Fulham and Brighton playing shit. Could be anyone

Great goal Saka, 100% meant it. Arsenal have looked decent last couple of games despite results. I lumped on them to win this but covered it with a draw.

BFS has had his bucket christmas gravy and will inspire a win tomorrow

 

[LongsightM13]

Surely even Arsenal couldn’t mess this up from here

I know Rodri isn't the most popular right now, but for me Jorginho is easily worse. We dodged a bullet on that one. Only professional athlete I've ever seen that I honestly believe I could beat in a foot race.

Probably slower as well, can take a pen tho.

 

[Bobby Heaton Moor]

Martinelli reminds me of a young Sanchez/Tevez. So tenacious and direct. I think he has a really bright future

I was hoping someone would have the confidence to say that we will thrash them when we next meet them but understandably all responses so far are just hopes that someone else might cause them to drop points and we will get closer to them.

Love Peo, but how anyone could think was was a good replacement for Fern is deluded in the extreme !

 

[oddfellows]

Gundo and Rodri again.

Kun on bench

For me there is plenty to like about Rodri and I think sooner or later, he will start to use his physical attributes to his advantage more effectively, in a very physical league. He's a big unit that should be winning most of his duels. He's just not Fernandinho though and I don't think he will ever be the type of player that can do two players jobs. We really dropped the ball by not challenging Chelsea for the Kante transfer, seems the closest player to him and we'd possibly have prolonged Fernandinho's career by doing so too.

Fabinho seems to have turned out alright but it did seem to take him ages to bed in, so who knows how it would have gone at City. Plus Liverpool had £400m in Couthinho bonds to spend, so we'd probably have been outbid.

They're 8 points ahead of us. We could win every single game left this season (including Anfield) and we'd still need them to drop points elsewhere

What does Kai Havertz actually do? What is his role?
