He offers nothing defensively, has zero physicality and Bournemouth will be full on pace wise

Accident waiting to happen if he starts

Surely you’ve seen enough to figure out he’s nowhere near the level for a game of this stature ?

No more difficult a game than going to St James Park for Cup 5th round where he was arguably MotM

Savinho made a really good measured run and pass to Haaland for his assist to Marmoush for the 3rd against palace. Dont be too harsh on the lad. Its fine margins between goodness & greatness.

I’ll be as harsh as I like thanks

Simply nowhere near good enough. Never mind fine margins ffs

Game was over when he found Haaland the other night

Really pity him earning a wedge for failing to deliver , just hope I don’t hurt his feelings ‍♂️
 
The press will be difficult to play around. Have the balls to go long. Hit it into the channels. They will pounce on our slow play.

So that makes him immortal?

I don’t know any professional footballer who would let the ball hit him a yard out

My money says he froze and got ever so lucky

Newcastle aren’t exactly terrifying are they?

Respect your opinion, but we have better options
 
They played a ridiculous high line at the Etihad and Haaland had his fill.

They'll probably play the same way sine it's their last game of the season at home.
 
These will deffo go for it. Two wins for them and a dippers draw with Brentford and they get into the champions league?

We do - and in a totally fresh squad he doesn't start. But this is our 3rd game in 6 days and 3 days after a tough cup final

I'd rather play doku after a night on the guiness than start savinho. He's an impact sub and that's it

That’s the spirit, perhaps Pep could get you to do a team talk to get the lads properly up for it! I think it will be a good game, us with a chance of the league, then with a chance of Europe, even champions league, both on great runs. I shall be there as always giving it my all from my severely restricted seat (how did Bournemouth know I had shit eyesight?). Let’s say arse (cunts) win 4 0 tonight, and we win by a goal tomorrow, then IF (and I know it’s a big IF) arse we’re to draw at palace, then by my reckoning a two goal win v Villa (cunts) would do it for us? #BELIEVE

Rodri looked absolutely goosed at Wembley. Rest him for Villa.

I think Rodders was taken off after an hour on Saturday to ensure he is fit for at least 70 mins in Tuesday on a smaller pitch. He will be vital in front of our back 4, protecting and recycling possession, in my opinion
 
I’m Billy no mates on Tuesday (or to be accurate even more Billy no mates than usual) due to how few tickets we get for Bournemouth, where’s the best place for a pre match booze are Vitality?
 
For the record Bournemouth have failed to win 11/18 of their home games this season (tbf only 2 of them were losses) which means they aren’t exactly incredible at home and that given they are playing one of the top teams in the league we go there with a hell of a lot more than a punchers chance

They are the team with the most draws in the Premier League, and no doubt a few of those will be amongst the home games they haven't won ..... considering we could be a bit weary, and they've had a good rest, this could be game to try to nick a quick goal and then strengthen our defensive tactics and formation in the the hope of holding out !

For those saying it's a smaller pitch at Bournemouth, Google tells me it's 105 x 68 metres compared to ours at err 105 x 68 metres.

I think what it is, is the stands are on top of the pitch down there which makes it seem smaller.

Yep, that's exactly what it is ...... small packed stands that are right on top of play, and good home vocal support, despite there being only an 11,307 capacity .... it's gonna be a pressurised situation for us down there tomorrow night though, if Arsenal fail in their quest to beat Burnley tonight.

I can't really see them failing though.
