My thoughts exactly. Same for Dias.

We can hope.

 

[ufo]

there was some talk of dias being subbed off due to something, nobody mentioned stones tho. hope they’re ok. :(

i hope dias recovers from something asap and hope stone don’t have the same something problem

OOOhhhhh it's a good job you live at the back of beyond young sir, or you would really feel the glare of my best scary stare!!!!!!! ;-)

Remember your place young lady....

How long is the piece of string Guardiola is holding?

 

[Lovebitesandeveryfing]

Walker not been the best recently but look at how shite we are vs counters without him.

Walker's a less skilled footballer than Rico all round, there's no doubt about it in my mind, but he can overlap, put crosses over, and get back in time to catch up his winger and generally make himself a nuisance. Or at least he could, it remains to be seen if he still can. Rico has much more difficulty doing that. He just does not have the pace. Rico, on the other hand, is able to do much more in midfield (not difficult, because Kyle can do nothing in midfield, nor is he asked to).

Would take a point. These are a good side.

Has malg hacked youngbob's account?

Lots more players in the squad than I was expecting. Not sure how fit they are

Think Dias was struggling with something and was forced to play when akanji pulled out

possibly. some players allegedly played with pain injections on wednesday, i repeat, allegedly.

 

[Eccles Blue]

My thoughts exactly. Same for Dias.

I also wondered with an International break coming up. I know I am one of his biggest fans but I also do not like him playing in the IB as he always gets a niggly injury. So let's hope that is what it is. Fingers crossed.

jasko ?

 

[TinFoilHat]

Just long enough to be fit after the next round of meaningless internationals.

 

[TinFoilHat]

I wonder if Stones’s injury is tactical to stop him having to play two Nations League matches in a couple of weeks time?

I wouldn't trust Engerland to fuck him up. They have form.

Young lady can't be referring to me surely????? *rofl*

 

[vanchi]

pep did mention playing through the pain.

 

[denTTony]

Be interesting to see how fit or how long some of these who are/were injured can last today

 

[The Fat el Hombre]

Good options on the bench, pretty happy with the starting 11, hoping Gundo can get back to some sort of decent form

 

[vanchi]

jasko ?

i don’t know. they said some of them, bernie was the only one mentioned directly.

 

[Jonas.shaffer]

You have been itching for the next opportunity to say this hey

"story of his career" was harsh in retrospect, but it's undeniably been an issue over his career.

 

[vanchi]

little bit of a long time? gotta love pep’s word salad.

 

[Nour]

Every match we play there must be a player that comes out with an injury . Who is cursing us ?
