Edgy about this one. It’s not even about the result for me at this point, it’s seeing the lads putting in the effort and showing the fire. I want to see them all working their bollocks off. If we lose, we lose, but ffs let’s give them a fight. CTID
 
Any player who faces our goal when recieving the ball and not facing towards ready to press the opposition goal shouldn't start.

too many have a poor starting position this year and end up on the back foot and passing back
 
My biggest concern in Sunday is how much our players want it
Because they are a good team. Not great just good
If they come to ours and batter us we’re fucked
We’re not fucked if we lose on Sunday mate, whatever the score, it’s only 3 points.

I know especially this season no match can be taken for granted, but have you seen our PL fixtures left from March onwards? After this game we’ve got Spurs away to come, which despite their recent form has often been a graveyard for us, but after that, loads of potentially winnable games to get that top 4/5 spot.
 
The worse thing Pep can do here is start any of Gundo, Kova and Bernardo together. One of them is fine, but we completely lose shape and running ability when there is more than that.

Ederson

Khusa - Dias - Ake - Gvardiol

Nico - Kova

Savinho - Foden - Marmoush

Haaland

I'd maybe even consider KDB over Foden for that final ball.
I agree with this.

Foden has to have a good game though, he was absolutely awful on Wednesday and couldn’t be arsed. If Kev starts over him I’d be fine with that, but if Foden starts and is ineffective I’d hope he switches it at half time rather than in 80 minutes.
 
Pep,
please,
fuck off the high line. Not another Madrid, standing near the mid line and struggle to run back
having slow defenders vs Mbappe - or now Salah.
Don't throw it away, again.

Dippers are under pressure to win, we are not!
Use that advantage, Pep.
Sit deeper, player over the top. Like Newcastle. Eddie, Marmoush.
It's not rocket science.

No high line, it's what dippers need to win.
If I'll see that again, Pep, you will have something to explain. Stop that.

He was really poor, no doubt, but what was any player supposed to do when receiving the ball only to see everybody else either statue-like or hiding away?
Can't wait to put Wednesday well behind us
 
i wonder what pep will do, he always plays ake at lb against liverpool
 
Listening to pep he once again reiterated the need for control and to minimise turnovers. So I foresee a very safe side.

Ederson

Khosa
Dias
Ake
Gvardiol

Nico
Bernardo
Kdb

Grealish
Marmoush
Foden

See it being 1 - 2 bad guys
 
gvardiol who has played centre back when exactly last?
Gvardiol always makes me nervous, whether at CB or LB. Simply doesn't have any defending instinct, or technique.
I'm convinced that he could be a world-beating attacking midfielder, though. He looks much happier upfield

Something I actually agree with you on lol. He's a classy player and chips in with a fair few goals but he has his Walker moments with misplaced passes, often under no.pressure. His defending isn't great either. It is hard to judge our defence this season though as we can never play a settled defence two games in a row due to injuries.
 
Really hope we can get a result on Sunday but if we don't the consolation for me is that I'd prefer Liverpool to win the title rather than Arsenal (just)

It's clear evidence of just how despicable Arsenal, and their fans have become that the majority of Blues would rather Liverpool won the league than them.

One of them will win it and both clubs, their players and fans are utter cunts. The only consolation if Liverpool win it is it pisses the rags off as they will equal their twenty titles record.
