But even before that, we looked leggy against Brentford.

You're going out on a limb there.

I want to see us give this lot a good hiding.

Still livid about that final.

Can’t wait for this. Really put our stamp on the title defence here.
Ederson
Walker Dias Laporte Cancelo
Rodri Gundogan
Jesus KDB Foden
Bernardo

The early kick off will help us for a change.

Quick turnaround for them.

Should be able to rip them down the sides.

It was a knee jerk reaction on my part

Holding defensive midfielder might be worth thinking about.

6 th post in surprised you were the first with that ;-)

Ilbow down to your experience there

Don't usually like players being targeted — don't hold with it, at all — but I hope somebody's informally taken out a contract on Rudiger. It's not just the CL final. He is a deeply dirty player.
For a team that's had oodles of talent over the years, they certainly like to have their resident hit man. Think of Costa.

Lets be fair not many liked having to face NDJ and the great Gaz Baz. Apart from Dinho we don't have that in our style to be fare, so lets just smash the chavs :-)

Fern does niggly, tactical fouls, and he’s very good at it. Never seen him smash someone in the face, or whack his elbow into the back of someone’s head. Gazbaz, fairly comparable. NDJ, different case entirely. He was a bruiser, who could really mix it. His foul on Iniesta was, possibly, the worst I’ve seen in a major World Cup game. He should definitely have walked. i think Webb didn’t want to be the first referee ever to show a red in a WC final.
