Can’t believe Casper is straight back in again. Frustrating.

Big Erl loves this fixture, I can see him bagging at least three tonight ..!

Dortmund have got a fucking drum in, in SSL0. How have they managed that? I thought we didn’t let them in anymore.

Must have skinned the steward's.

 

[pudge]

Because every team we face has different tactics and different qualities, and we have squad full of players with different qualities who are each differently suited to combat the oppositions’ tactics differently from week-to-week.

Didn't hurt us in the treble season to stick with the one team to be fair

The management of Rodri has been piss poor, borderline disgusting

It can take two full years to recover from an ACL rupture and surgery.

Along the way many injuries are common, including a full re-rupture of the ligamentising tendon, pain and discomfort in the recovering knee, rupturing the ACL in the other leg, or muscle injuries around the lower body due to changes in anatomy from atrophy and limping etc.

We are 14 months in at the moment.

Joleon channeling his winter desires there with his gloves. It’s warm as fuck.

 

[Zenmanc]

A lineup with Liverpool in mind.

Pep knows if Arsenal win again at weekend and Liverpool beat us at the Etihad it's curtains for the title.

"Curtains?"

There are 84 points still to be had.

More than 9 points have been overcome before.

It's fucking November 5th.

It's fucking Arsenal.

This team is far from the treble team.

 

[i8rags]

Lol

Yeah funny

 

[i8rags]

Bad management according to @i8rags

Correct

 

[Blue Til Death]

This team is far from the treble team.

Quadruple I’d say .

 

[i8rags]

How come ?

Coz I said

 

[Mancini’s Pastilles]

How anyone could watch Doku this season and think he’s not good enough is truly baffling unless you’re a wum.

Not wumming. Dont think hes good enough to be starting these games, hes an option from bench to run at tired legs is all imo. And savinho less said the better. Should be Cherki Foden Marmoush behind Haaland

 

[Colin Bells Boots]

Probably but building as we progress.

too many willing to criticise atm.

Let's judge further into the season as only a quarter way through

 

[hilts]

I assume that Cherki is being rested for the liverpool match, as is Bernardo and Dias.

:-)

The Blues are now unbeaten in our last 22 home matches played in the group/league phase of the UEFA Champions League.

Was thinking the same tbh. Just hope we aren’t in Paul Lake territory.

Hope it's says Fuck UEFA...

Sav is very young and the jury is still out but yes he needs to improve but Doku has been one of our top 5 performers this season. He’s had a few poor games but that’s the life of a tricky winger, sometimes it won’t be your day

 

[madloaf]

A deep sadness has washed over me that cherki isn't playing.
