I just hope Dias plays. There will be passages of play where we are defending backs to the wall with the crowd up. I want him there more than any other centre half, albeit i suspect Lewis, Ake and Akanji will all come back in given he rested them
Just had a little spy on the Arsenal forum for a laugh
Strangely enough, they’re not quite as cocky and confident as they were a few weeks ago. Sounding worried now.
It's like previous seasons where Liverpool were widely reported as having the best LB, best RB, best CB, best CM, best Front Three and best manager, but still finished behind us in every season bar one.I mean, in their defence it’s based on player ratings - it’s hardly their pick. Just based on the emoji alone, it also looks like they’re sceptical themselves.
Off to the game tonight, I genuinely think you're going to be on the end of some really bad refereeing decisions. I can't see you getting much in terms of fouls or 50/50s honestly think the pressure we've put on PGMOL this week they'll want to ensure we are the beneficiaries of an "over favourable" performance.
We'll lose to you guys at the Etihad though, it just depends on what happens in between.
Good luck.
A draw won’t be so bad, don’t forget they still have to go to Newcastle, Anfield, over 16 games we could make up the 6 pts if they won there game in hand.This is it.
Win and it’s game on for PL title.
Draw or Lose and we’ll need more than little bit of help to have any chance of the title.
