I'm booked in for mental health problems.

I've gone win but it's still at 90 for a win and 91 for summat else.

Everton tend to do well against Chelsea generally so they will put everything into getting a result today.

Basically I'm hoping they're too tired from today to beat us on Boxing day.

Like I said for a few weeks now, let's try something new. If Manu Akanji is not fit, let's play Bernardo at RB. He did well there vs Arsenal some time ago. Play this 11 and we will win. Our problems are serious, but not as bad as the results would indicate. We are making it worse with the team selection. We did beat Forrest 3-0, so Pep needs to ask himself how did we do that? What was the starting 11? I think my 11 here does the job.

No chance, losing to a shit rags team was a new low losing to a piss poor Everton would be lower than that, we simply have to win

I don't know bro, we are 1 win in 12 and somehow it's getting worse and worse.

 

[Shazza458]

It feels like a must win - without stating the obvious, we have to start to picking up points now.
Whether we do is another matter

God is that what it has come to with us now?

I think the only way we have a chance of winning this game at the moment is if De Bruyne plays. If he does then we have a good chance. If not then we don’t.

At least it’s at home.

Dias isn’t fit.

 

[City64!]

Any reason why players such as McAtee can’t play instead of passengers like Bernardo. He’s scored more for us than Savio this season.

Dias isn’t fit.
