Is my guess, I'd like a full strength team but that's not feasible

That's the team I'm expecting to see as well

Very typical of Bluemoon that we're 7 games away from making history yet 70% of the discussion is about Kalvin fucking Phillips. Hahaha

All of those players we group into the above category, at least showed something during their first year.

Phillips has showed nothing in the extremely brief cameos this season, and I assume in training, so even warrant being trusted to come on and give a half decent level of performance, even at times when we've been 2 or 3 up.

He's just clearly not getting it at all.

I think him "not getting it" is the problem. I really think that he does not understand oursystem, our way of playing. He has come from a up and at em team, who move the ball quickly and take risks. We can't have that, especially in his position. Sometimes when he has got a few minutes on the pitch, he plays blind balls, even in our own half until that is coached out of him, he won't play.

Got to go as strong as possible today as we cannot afford to give Arsenal any incentive. It will be tough enough today without playing a lesser side.

BMers love to have a moan. Nip into the match thread later on if you don't believe me. Some of our fans don't deserve the team we have.

Whilst today will be tough, I think (and I’m sure Everton think) they have two more eminently winnable games after today. I’d be targeting the win at Wolves and Everton will definitely beat Bournemouth at home. Leicester and Leeds for me going down with Southampton.

I’ve only ever been on the match thread during a game once a few years ago and regretted it. Never again.

Mahrez starts, no ake as expected

You are obsessed with match threads, dont read it

A bit difficult to do as a mod, Kaz.
