Yes 3 pts ahead of the rags

That means very little to be honest

He is having a party in Brazil today and arrives tonite or tomorrow,he won't be playing for a while

cheers....sooner the better

2-1 win.

We can't keep clean sheet. We'll miss plenty of chances, will have probably over 70% possession but the most yellow cards.

 

[The-Dogs-Pollocks]

Just need to get the three points. Scrap it out like the watford match. Keep in the top 4 till Jesus arrives and starts performing his miracles!

 

[Marvin]

Early goal and we'll destroy Burnley.

Early goal and we'll destroy Burnley.

was just thinking to myself, when was the last time we completely destroyed a team? west brom away?

Think we will win on ridiculous theory that burnley had their good day yesterday and therefore by law of averages, we cant be that bad again & they cant be that good..

I know its too early for Jesus and hes probably pissed up right now at his leaving bash, but I would like this kind of team for the rest of the season
Ignoring ridiculous injury records and going against people reputation on here, I just want a team with energy, passion and excitement that I can get behind and call my team again

Any Goalkeeper (I dont rate a single one in the squad, so just put me out my misery and presume its probably Claudio)
Sagna (would have been ideally maffeo)
Kompany
Stones
Kolarov/New Left back please dear god

Fernandinho
Delph (he has been useless and un-usable simply down to his injury record, but he WAS given minutes at the start of the year and the guy runs. He is no worse than Can/WIjnaldum etc and I genuinely believe he has a future if he takes his chance now when fit in a midfield 3)
De Bruyne

Sane
Sterling
Gabriel Jesus

Go out, please run
Please dont be timid. Please show us what we were promised at the start of the year, and the only thing we have ever wanted and expect for the rest of the year; soul
I dont care if we make mistakes and I dont care if we finish 4-6th if we are better for it in the long run. Trust in the raw youth we have (which we have spend 150M on by the way, so there should not be many excuses), and we have a serious load of potential. The crowd has a job to do though, and I have less faith in our support and fanbase right now than the sorry lot on the pitch. We wont ever have a manager with this track record, and he is making mistakes, like any other, but support him and he will get it right

Burnleys away form 0-1-7 out of 8 games played 2 goals for 18 against,really if we don't put in a convincing display and really we should win then we deserve everything thrown at us and that includes pep as well,but just get the feeling this could end in a scrappy uninspiring 2.1 win which for some will be three points at the end of the day..

Early goal and we'll destroy Burnley.

I get what you're saying but we're turning into flat track bullies again. We'll struggle tomorrow I'm telling you. Although we have nice possession stats and most passes it's the score that counts and a win at any cost is all I want. This second half of the season I just want wins. Shit wins, stuffy wins, ugly wins, lucky wins, sack playing tippy tappy shite in the middle of the pitch, get the ball into the final third and test the keeper.

I think we need to go 442 as they will come to defend
