Arteta seems to like a target man up there to hold the ball up at times, so I think it far more likely that a taller, older player will play there.

My guess is Merino as he’s scored a few headers for Spain and is a physical presence.

When no physical presence needed, it’ll be Trossard or Martinelli.

Proof he thinks Peps a fraud compared to Moyesy….

Eh. Not sure I've made any excuses. Dippers are the best team this season and BTW with their current points projection of 94 points on current pacing they'd have won the league each season for the last 4 seasons and 5 seasons ago they won it with 99 points. So they're better than us but they're also better points wise than you've been for the last 5 seasons too. This Liverpool side is therefore better than any City side since the Centurions from a League perspective so it's not as if we'd kept up our level from last season that we'd have won it.

You need a team to push you to keep getting a high points tally, that’s not happened the last 4 seasons ;)

That’s really not how it works. You can judge that at the end of the season. I remember people claiming Haaland was on for 60+ league goals in his first season at one point.

As a note, we also finished with 98 points the year after 100 points.

Good prediction. Should have put some money on him scoring.

Havertz out for rest of season with torn hamstring. Sterling and Trossard up front coming to a shitshow near you soon.

Sad news for Kai. 15 goals in what 33 games is a good tally for someone who by far is not a proper striker.

As for the club deciding not to get a striker in during the January window. You fucking bunch of absolute grade A morons.

That was a strange decision.. Kane or Benzamar would have been great for you..or even Billy Sharpe! Havertz.. despite knobbling Rodri first min! Has been great tbf.. has a lot in his locker.. a bit more composure in front of sticks.. you have a great all rounder wjo can go up up top when your main striker is out.. just need a main striker of course

Why was that red rescinded ? Wolves lad full pelt on a break..Selly tries to kick him ..of course the lad with the ball would try and evade possible contact and injury.. joke decision to reverse the red. Also Gabriel..... jesus..... get him at least in the book m, the bully. That lad is a proper knob...needs a ball thrown at his bonce...

Looks like either Feyenoord or PSV in the next round of the CL.

Im more excited about the Liverpool drop points result. This week cmon City, we didn't throw missiles at your team bus, we didn't throw coins into the City end from our away section.

You cant honestly want Liverpool to win the league over Arsenal.
