The way we schooled them this season at the bridge is a big reason for that. Took the wind right out of their sales.

Agreed, they were offering far too much discount.

Cant wait for it next sat,were in a top moment,smash the shit out of em ,and send em packin,big day on the piss love it

We played Arsenal with an extra game in our legs so I am discounting that performance.

But even before that, we looked leggy against Brentford.

I'll play Gabby instead.

Don't usually like players being targeted — don't hold with it, at all — but I hope somebody's informally taken out a contract on Rudiger. It's not just the CL final. He is a deeply dirty player.
For a team that's had oodles of talent over the years, they certainly like to have their resident hit man. Think of Costa.

Rudiger is well overdue so pay back , not just his his assault on KDB but he has done plenty of other players , he's a dirty bastard , hope someone clatters him before he pisses off to Real Madrid for his £500k a week.

Hope Kev does that himself with a late, nasty tackle.

Looks very good

 

[chickaroon]

We have Fulham at home in the next round of the cup.

I'm hoping it's going to be a blowout..

You're going out on a limb there.

To be fair I thought his post was pretty armless

 

[Bazzmand Show]

I want to see us give this lot a good hiding.

Still livid about that final.

 

[Blu3m00n91]

Can’t wait for this. Really put our stamp on the title defence here.
Ederson
Walker Dias Laporte Cancelo
Rodri Gundogan
Jesus KDB Foden
Bernardo

 

[tolmie's hairdoo]

The early kick off will help us for a change.

Quick turnaround for them.

Should be able to rip them down the sides.

It was a knee jerk reaction on my part

 

[big gaz]

Holding defensive midfielder might be worth thinking about.

6 th post in surprised you were the first with that ;-)

Ilbow down to your experience there

Lets be fair not many liked having to face NDJ and the great Gaz Baz. Apart from Dinho we don't have that in our style to be fare, so lets just smash the chavs :-)

Fern does niggly, tactical fouls, and he’s very good at it. Never seen him smash someone in the face, or whack his elbow into the back of someone’s head. Gazbaz, fairly comparable. NDJ, different case entirely. He was a bruiser, who could really mix it. His foul on Iniesta was, possibly, the worst I’ve seen in a major World Cup game. He should definitely have walked. i think Webb didn’t want to be the first referee ever to show a red in a WC final.
