lots of tired legs and all important matches coming up

We will be okay.Our fitness is spot on.We make teams do all the running.
Great game management today in the second half.
Phil drawing the two fouls to make it ten v ten the turning point.
Loads of players slipping tonight,my only worry after we went in front.

 

[Double R]

3 points!
Good performance!
Andy Hinchcliffe is a cockwomble!

All of this.

 

[David Silva]

Gundo, Mahrez, Bernardo, Rodri fantastic tonight. And then as for Foden, just unstoppable at times...

Well done to the players. A big win....a huge win!

What a star we have in Phil Foden.

Bernardo is a gem, he was outstanding today. 2 assists, making up for the extra man as well. Tirelessly running, never tired. Amazing work rate.

Job done but this hard slog after a sublime run is doing my head in... I’m eating BP tablets like M&M’s ffs..!

 

[Lancet Fluke]

Decent performance under the circumstances. Some real lapses of concentration from individuals at the back, not just stones but Walker had a couple and zinchenko had one too. Thank goodness we have Dias holding them together. Not just because of tonight but feel Dias and Laporte should be allowed to develop and should be first choice pairing for the big games. They’re the best two CBs at the club, genuinely world class partnership potentially.

Excellent result. Some of our football, especially in the first half, was sublime.

Three big points.


On another matter, Redknapp is such a fucking moron, how does he get this gig ?

 

[Sky Blue]

Good grief, what a turgid 2nd half and at times, torturous.
Dreadful start but we regained control and did so well to get in front then Stones rounds of a calamitous performance with an act of utter folly....1 minute after we get in front, just before HT. Tit...pure and simple...a chump....with a feckin title at stake.
Laporte will now be back as the partner for Dias.
2nd half was grim viewing but we controlled the ball well, don't think they had a chance 2nd half?
Gritty battling performance with so much control for so much of the game.
Phil superb. Bernado very good too and Zinny had a good 2nd half.
Feeling good again

Kinell....

Tremendous team performance with some wonderful individual efforts. Always nervous when only 1 up, but we never really seemed in danger second half. GTFI!!!
