Does anyone think this season is a rerun of last season? Started of well winning 5 out of 5 then drift away in the league and struggling to make top four plus bomb out of most of the cups but then make the semi final in one cup only to go out with a whimper. Last seasons demise was but down to manager leaving and just treading water till Pep arrived. This seasons excuse players treading water until they are out of contract this summer!! Mind you we actually won the league cup last year could we fluke the FA Cup?
Many as usual wouldn't admit it. But this clearly proves the majority who blamed Pellars and argued we'd have won the league with a decent manager were wrong.

1. We have a more than decent manager now.
2. We have even better tent than we did last year, yet we are pretty much about where we were last year.

Perhaps it wasn't just Pellars after all :-)
 
I'm not sure....in both Monaco and Arsenal theu didn't do what Pep wanted them to do.

So they must have reservations or lack the confidence to do that, and from my point of view that means they can't be 100% bought in, because if you're genuinely 100% behind someone you do what they say even if you're worried or nervous about it backfiring.

I think some of the players who know they are leaving aren't fully committed.

Arsenal and Monaco was about elevating key components in the side, we dont have that on the field at present... we know our shortfalls and my expectations of those players hasn't changed with pep coming in, however, the players letting us down are doing so through lack of leadership!
 
No mate the better team are top. We are good going forward but we lack presence in midfield and defence. They are a more complete team
I know where you're coming from but put it this way, both teams play 100%, who wins?
 
Chelsea are clearly going to be up for it after their loss, and I wouldn't be surprised to see them score early. Everything rests on if our defense. If they can keep Chelsea under 2 goals then I think we'll take it, otherwise we're going to have problems.

My prediction: 2-2
Sane and Aguero to score.
