Ffs could I remember Ben Haim,got the rest no problem ..

11/12 , couldnt remember the easily forgotten Scott Sinclair

 

[Tangled up in blue.]

Looking like Laporte is one of the new cases

What makes you say that

 

[domalino]

MOTM and POTM both bagged today. What could possibly go wrong tomorrow ?

Guardiola has a 90% win rate in the months after he wins the award.

6/10 times we've won every single game (including December 2021 after he won MOTM for November)

 

[BringBackSwales]

Absolutely. That was thankfully a bit before my time, but you're right, that was shameful time in the history of our fambase. Apart from pockets of knuckleheads, which all fanbases have these days, I don't think we're any different than City or other clubs.

Stop telling us that City fans are no different to chelsea fans, we are a very different fan base to you

12/12

Missed Phelan (before my time in fairness) and Sinclair (made a conscious effort to forget he ever played for us at some point)

Well we've established that I obviously disagree with that. No fanbase is exactly the same, the culture and traditions is different in each one, but the knuckleheads levels is the same.

10 years from now we will still have the same handful of posters making the exact same points about Peps supposedly overthinking of the CL whenever we’re about to face Chelsea.
Surely you must be bored to tears repeating yourselves so often?

Everyone has a different form of entertainment. They are just enjoying themselves.

Eddy-Steffen
Dias-Bernardo
Bernardo-Cancelo
Bernardo-Dias
İlkay-Bernardo

Worst covid combinations.

Lukaku vs Ake doesn't fill me with confidence. Hopefully he's up for it if Laporte is indeed out.

Meh, Laporte has a tendency to get bullied by a strong centre forward who puts themselves about. Ake might not be as bad as you expect. That said, if Stones is back he’d be my choice.

Same mate

I have a feeling Lukaku doesn't start this game. He started both the Chesterfield and Spurs games in the last 7 days.

 

[Bazzmand Show]

Forgive me if I'm being dens, is Stones out?

Surely he starts ahead of Ake...

You do know their is a Laporte thread. :)

 

[Hayley Croppers chopper]

Idiot, no thanks! Grow up

Absolute horsespunk: keep it up Vialli, its good humour.

 

[LucahArchie10]

I was hoping Rudiger smashed one of ours in the first few minutes and got sent off. No more than he deserves.

I get what your saying & he gets away with it but is also clever with it, he's an animal & would love him & Dias together nobody would get fucking near

Free agent I wonder????

I never knew that Phelan played for Chelsea.

I never knew that Phelan played for Chelsea.

Neither did I but his name popped into my head ..

Tuchel will select Havertz tomorrow imo.
