‘66 World Cup replay should be good. Always wanted to see us win a World Cup final.

Mike Wedderburn does a pretty decent job of representing us though.

Good to get an hour in Kovacic’s legs and give Bobb more experience, although he faded with many others second half. He looks sharp and incisive. Interesting reflection - kovacic with Bobb stepping in for Palmer and 15m in the bank. Unless he played tonight, he still hasn’t played for Chelsea...

Not sure the commentary was really that biased. It’s their job to excite the neutral not us. I thought there was a decent amount of praise in the first 40. Not sure what praise they could give us second half, although perhaps over praise for them. It did come across like we were being beaten by...

I reckon this is the kind of signing we’d make in the 00’s. Giddy about exciting players post Pearce but little more than occasional glimpses and OTT commentator focus when there’s bollocks all talent on the pitch to talk about. Like you hear in play off matches and the same name is mentioned...

I think back to Anfield, the Fulham penalty he gave away, his diving, his sulking and dangled outside right leg to tackle and think ‘whatever, he’s out’. If they could sell him they would but there’s no takers. It’s why Chelsea could be bother with their 8 year contracts if players don’t...

Yeah, I’d probably mind by about mid September! But I reckon I’d still not begrudge the players and management after all they’ve given us. Get to January though and they could all go….. I just think we’re in a wonderful position looking backwards and forwards. And I’d never want to sound...

The best generations of teams re-shape at their peak. We made a right mess with ‘Sinclair summer’ because we didn’t improve. But it’s also about people moving on at the right time. A statue for Gundogan is a fair shout. But he’s gone on a high and there were signs pre World Cup that age and pace...

A few myths busted for rival fans ( and a few for the match day forum and pundits): * Cancelo wasn’t a problem and Pep was mad for not getting a new left back * We are a worse team/ overly dependent/ one dimensional with Haaland * Jack is a 100m flop * Pep has made us too slow in a year with a...

It’s still there now, just watched it before I saw this thread It’s so cynical. As Pep has said, who will go back and correct the feelings and accusations when, like CAS, we come out on the right side of decisions? That’s one thing but to do this, with absolutely nothing new and to use terms...

By the end of the season, my lad and I will have missed 4 home games - all bought via Citizen's membership as at the time, a ST wasn’t an option. Not missed a home cup game, went to Wembley. Not got a ticket today. Thought I was just unlucky but reading here, was it open sale rather than e.g...

We’d all love to see us go at it for 90 mins and score double figures. But surely this team and management have earned the right to second halves like today. Only Foden is out and that’s not an injury. Klopp has put 90000 miles into his team and they’re burnt out. Ten Haag the same and they will...

Definitely bought into the wall/two tier proposal but being next to the Bayern fans tonight shows what can be achieved on three tiers. Just as we’ve done countless times from Villa last year to even Hamburg under Hughes. Spurs away this year was a garbage atmosphere, despite the end many are...
