I see that Richard Keys thought Jack was terrible.

I've made an appointment at Vision Express for Keys!!!






I use Specsavers so no way am I going to the same opticians as that stupid dill weed nincompoop. (I like that word dill weed!!! :-) )

20 degrees and sunny in London on Saturday, been a while since an afternoon game in the sun. Should be a good day for everyone going down, enjoy!

Rodri must be given a rest for Madrid. It may lead to a loss of points but we need to improvise. Not having a suitable backup does not warrant running this guy into the turf
The away game in Madrid is potentially the toughest game of the season we need our main asset properly rested. He must be fully rested or on the bench for the next two league games. It is beyond ridiculous that he is given the work load he has.

I think he'll be rested against Luton. I don't see us taking him out for an away game at a team that has had success against us on the counter attack.

Obviously going to get fuck all from Var with the cheat Attwell on it, but with Tierney you just dont know what mood he is in. Last 3 PL game he has booked 7,5 and 9 and the 3 before that just 1,2 and 1.
Been okay this season for us with the win at the Rags, Home draw v Palace and Cup win at Spurs but also had a extremely dodgy Dippers performance for them v Chelsea with a few dubious goals and 4 Chelsea players carded in the 1st half alone and of course his most recent Dippers Gift for their added time winner at Forest

Try and get this won early and get players off for Tuesday. Also hopefully get some minutes into stones nunes.

He got 20 mins last night and will get similar again at the weekend if we’re in a position to do so.

There was heavy rotation last night, with Pep highlighting the lack of recovery time, so the chances of the team being the same as last night are next to none.

I’s guess that Bernardo and Foden being rested, with maybe Grealish too, depending on how he came through the game last night. Haaland coming back in too.

This will be a severe smashing 5 or 6 nil
