Obviously one eye on the cup final possibly be telling even if we do win what the line up for the palace game is

 

[Blue_eyes]

The best chance we have re the title is to win by 4 goals tonight(not easy I know).

That levels gd with us having scored more.

If arse drop points somewhere then we have the chance of better gd.

A long shot maybe, but lets keep the pressure on arse until its not possible to win it.

We need midfielded steel and our answer is Reijnders

He will out smile any one though !

 

[lasereyes]

Would of preferred stones to ake but aqua fresh in is quite a curve ball ....we really don't have a back up midfield regardless of how much money has been spunked

Ake has been very good whenever called upon

 

[super_city_si]

It's not just one poor game, he was poor when he came on against Burnley and worldie aside, poor against Southampton. He was absolutely shocking against Everton.

At least Reijnders can run.

Yes but no point running if youre just watching.

Yeah run away from tackles the fucking whimp.

If that’s what it is, think it is sensible.

 

[Goater=Legend]

Ake most likely playing as he's the best defender in the air.

 

[thyer64]

Nico G have 0 control in the 2nd half vs Everton no wonder he's dropped

The bigger concern is Reindeers is the replacement...midfield needs open heart surgery in summer. Anderson just replaces Bernardo, we need another CM

 

[Johnny Mars Bar]

unpopular opinion but i would start savinho on the right

If by that you mean the fast lane on the M6 down to Spurs, I agree.

 

[Bewar3them00n]

So, we’re going full on attack then it seems! loaded up with box crashers, & wingers

 

[Xhavenjoe]

Maybe Pep has a cunning plan

Baldy Rick

 

[Blue and true]

Well this is it. They all need to stand up, be counted, and be clinical this afternoon. What faint hope we have left is dependant on today being a 4 or 5 goal massacre of Brentford, because West Ham aren't beating Arsenal; the best we can hope for there is a draw.

Every pass needs to be a forward fucking pass this afternoon.

 

[Sky Blue]

Khusanov not even in the squad, is he injured?

Not fit.

 

[super_city_si]

Back to a slow as fuck back line with no midfield. Should be fun.

 

[bg1968]

We are on a 18 game unbeaten run in domestic games (won 14 , drew 4 last defeat Jan 26th) and have also beat some of the bigger clubs quite convincingly in that run and picked up a trophy secured Champs league football. So we have to be optimistic for the last five games this season starting with Brentford
It just shows the standards we aspire to , if we end up with 83pts it is not a vintage season but shows a steady improvement on the previous , really looking forward to Pep's last season , has he got any more records to break ?

 

[Revolver]

Whenever I see there’s no Rodri my heart sinks. A fit Rodri and I think we win the league comfortably.

Team looks light in midfield tonight but what do I know.

 

[super_city_si]

So, we’re going full on attack then it seems! loaded up with box crashers, & wingers

Think it’s going to be that way. Could be exciting as we can score but we’re wide open too.

 

[OntarioBlue]

o'reilly.

Could be, maybe we are going with 3 4 3

He was not poor vs Burnley at all. Best player when he came on albeit the best of a bad bunch.
