I have often asked myself what team I wouldn't mind winning the league if City didn't. Dippers no, tarquins no, rags...obviously not. Villa? That's a no too! So we are just going to have to win it!

Knew that would be tough but that is an absolutely huge win for us!!! Kept at it and a much better second half. Cherki is just sublime. Great to see the squad showing that fight and hunger to take the 3pts and we saw the game out well.

Need to get a grip of this game and be a bit more patient in possession. The switch of play is on, going to be a tough afternoon as expected. But get the first goal and things will open up.

Great to see Rodri on the bench and also lovely to see so many academy products on it too (even if a couple were bought recently). Would be lovely to get a few goals up and see what Heskey and McAidoo can do at this level. Think it might be tougher than that though.

Park bus and counter from them. Quieten the crowd and then put them to the sword.

He had issues with Nunes for the same reasons but time in the side and training with the team has seen him develop and now he is even trusted in the middle of the park. Got to give him time to adjust to the league, he came in midway through last season when we were shite and brought a lot of...

You forgot whether he can be a full back!

Wow, is that a bit of joy and positivity in your post! Merry fucking Christmas! I do like your general "don't need" or "wait until the summer" or "x player is good enough for now" posts, as if you are running a nice small family business and dont need the hassle of showing a bit more ambition...

Haha! We've all done it. We are unlikely to see it this season purely because he's been so good at left back and Ait-Nouri hasn't been around to rotate him.

I think you can safely assume it's better simply because of the money flushing around in the PL and the ability for sides throughout the league to offer more money to players across Europe. We can attract very good players throughout the league because of it. I don't think you can necessarily...

I hope Stokes stays on and we don't start planning for the next Ashes in Australia now. We've always been obsessed with that series down under and usually get battered. It's much better to plan for each test as it comes, try to win it and become the best side we can be. Then we go to Australia...

He so is mate!!! Perhaps not as a 6 as he'd have to turn off that instinct he has for driving forwards but he'd be fantastic as an 8. I had the same opinion as you initially but he's developed so much in the LB role. His composure is unbelievable. When we were under the cosh late on against Real...

I'd agree. The transfer fee is so low, any replacement will cost them a similar amount and be worse. They stand to make more from keeping him, finishing higher up the table and possibly qualifying for Europe again next season than cashing in. Plus they'll lose Glasner, if only mentally -...

We had a core of starters but we also had rotation, with Akanji at RB or the LB changing. Bernie sometimes wide right instead of Mahrez, or Foden used there. We had a consistent spine generally and a consistent formation but subtle changes in players depending on the opposition. We were...

Under Pep we've never really had a first 11. We've had a small squad and picked the right people to beat the opposition. That's where we want to get to again. We used to be able to rotate the team even quite dramatically at times and see no drop off in our dominance and results. To get back...
