Doubt we'll be playing it around the back quite as much without Ederson.

I don’t have any real reason for thinking this but I think Bernardo is gonna get on the scoresheet tomorrow. 3-0 city

Presuming that's what he means, it was posted on the 1st day of 2021 after all.

That'd be lovely ... but so far in the big games against the usual top 6 we haven't fared well. Throw in the Leicester at home and it doesn't look good.

BUT, let this be the turning point in the season and finally get going ...

With the possible exception of Wolves away on our opening day, we’ve not beaten a properly decent team all season so long overdue for that to change. If we want to be champions then sooner or later well have to start playing like champions, and tomorrow would be the perfect time to make a statement

Southampton was a decent team

Would love to see a recreation of the 1-0 a couple of years ago with that kdb rocket. We were imperious that day and it was a clear marker to everyone else that the league was ours that season.

Let's have lightning strike twice.

Got a really good feeling that this is the season we beat both Chelsea and Liverpool away.

Our record at Stamford Bridge isn't that bad in recent years, We won their under Mancini, Pellegrini and Pep.

We haven't won at Anfield since Keegan.

Was just about to post the same. That was a one nil battering that day

KDB masterclass that day, a sublime performance

Hope you’re right but can’t see Pep changing the way we play. Would prefer to be more cautious and not put Stefen under too much pressure
