Double figures please.

Bit raggish?

Going to be very warm looking at the forecast.
A rare 3pm kick off.

Can see Bournemouth flagging in last 20mins in the heat.

Its warmer down there they are used to it

2-0 again for me. They will pack the defence and just play on the break.
They know they will get caned going toe to toe, so might try right at the start, but will very quickly go 9-1 formation.
I would not blame them, it is probably their best chance of a result.

Not just a bit

My bad.

Dangerous team. Newly promoted away at the Champions. They'll be right up for it. They will give Haaland no space at all and their midfield will be all over de Bruyne. I'll take 1-1 right now.

I'd be surprised if we don't put 4 past them.

 

[Bazzmand Show]

It should happen. Anything over about 30c, it is dangerous to play. Heatstroke can do permanent damage. PL not very on the ball.

Tennis players play at the Oz open in 40 degrees in summer - the players at 30 degrees will be fine. They will just have extra drinks breaks etc.

 

[BerkshireBlue]

A good game for Phillips to get bedded in. We don't need to flog Rodri to death anymore.

Ederson
Walker Dias Ake Cancelo
Phillips
De Bruyne Silva
Mahrez Foden
Haaland

if (big if) we get 3-0 up get Wilson-Esbrand on.

 

[The Future’s Blue!]

This is a horrible thought but I think we’ll lose.

Okay, nine will do.
