Burnley (A) - Sat 2nd April, 15:00 | Pre-Match Thread

I would go with Jack, Phil and Riyad. We need people who can work openings with the ball at their feet, as Burnley will have worked all week at holding the line and defending the cross.

Have Gundo deep with Rodri and have Raheem also up top and interchanging with the wide lads.

It's a tough match after everyone has been away but we don't need Kev or Bernie today from the start.

Don’t know if it’s that 12 year old Dalwhinnie still in my system from last night, but I sense Watford pulling off an upset today.

Then we batter Burnley.

I reckon you could be right

It’s almost definitely the 12 year old Dalwhinnie

Just seen Burnley have quite a few out injured and one suspended. If we don’t win this we deserve nothing.

Will this be on any radio stations? I will be on the road, driving for the 2nd half.

It's on 5live.

Pep will pick his side with the next fixtures in mind-hence Ake, Fern, Raz and Jesus will all start.

 

[Damanino]

Hopefully everyone in the team is fully aware that there are no room for mistakes and dropped points.
Liverpool will kill Watford in the early game meaning they go 2 points clear on top.

We simply have to win this one to get back the 1 point lead we have now.

Perhaps we’ll all look back on this month as when we showed our true superiority. Beat Burnley today, beat Liverpool in the cup semi then again in the league game and beat Atletico in the CL and end the season on another unbeaten run.

Let's start a crucial month by getting 3 points this afternoon. Cornet can be dangerous so let's keep him quiet.

The 1738 from Burnley to Victoria has been cancelled, just in case any one was planning on getting this home. First train we can get back is the 1838.
