Harsh. Maybe Pep has seen some progression in training or in other respects from him? You never know, certainly not till we see him in action for us again.

Perhaps him and Rico can create a good partnership this season on that right hand side …

We must be changing our way of playing completely! First a goalie who doesn’t play like Eddie & now Kalvin is back. This is the Plan B everyone has been screaming for - because our successful way of playing (which won 6 titles & the CL) has been sussed by every team in the league

So they say on here anyway
 
Been dreading this game pretty much since the Spurs defeat. It’s felt like on an almost nailed-on defeat for a while, but I’m starting to feel more confident as the game approaches. Dunno if it’s the return of Gvardiol and Foden, or the introduction of Donnarumma, but for some reason I fancy us tomorrow. Probably because United are even shitter than us.

If you live in Manchester you feel it. Like I said, my 25 years in the Army I met tons of Rags. However, when we lost I just laughed it off - that gallows humour stuff and the fact I could tell them to fuck off as they were absolutely 100% glory hunters. Being in Manchester it's different though. When you work next to proper Mancunian Rags it's different. They're as fucking arrogant and insufferable as out of towners, but being Mancs it's worse. Cunts.

I find asking them how many times they've seen the team they claim to support play live.
They answer and I tell them how many times I've seen their beloved rags in derbies, adding "and I hate the cunts".
I reckon tomorrow is my 97th derby (not including reserves or testimonials) and that's a lot more viewings of the lower life forms than many of the rags I've worked with.
 
We’ve got the most lethal striker in world football ( when fed right) we’ve just signed possibly the worlds best keeper, we’ve got the ballon do’r winning best midfielder in the world, life’s not as bad as being made out, now if only we had a right back….. anyway positive thinking only… we’ll smash the shit rag cunts tomorrow…CITY CITY CITY

Same for me. The odd one is decent but they are mostly Charlie big spuds concerning anything.

After we lost to Chelsea in the CL final in 2021 we played the same " immovable object" in September 2021 at Stamford Bridge . But Pep changed tactics completely after losing that final to counter their extreme low block - Tuchel was their manager at the time. We pressed them all over the field but also defended deeply when needed especially after Jesus scored. At times in that game Chelsea found it very difficult to defend in the final third as the press was too good. All in all It was a masterclass from Pep. I'd love something similar tomorrow because Amorim will be set up to defend low block style , spoil and not to lose which will have the "feeling of a win". Then just capitalise on some mistakes.

Fair enough. Good post.
 
so here we go again. my most hated game since being a kid growing up near maine road, at 72 that is some time ago i am afraid, this is a must win game, lose this and get beaten 3 or 4 at arsenal and i really think pep will walk, hope i am wrong but i can see it happening sadly, win and maybe the title is too much but a good season still possible, lose and i have to hide at work and hope for top 6 finish, better sleep now to be ready for whatever happens tomorrow,
