Horrible game this. 5.30pm kick off kinda makes it worse. Grealish False 9 today I reckon

Hope not. He isn't suited to that role and it isn't really giving him much of a chance to succeed here.

Klopp resting key players with a 2 goal advantage over a much weaker side in the UCL, we’ll probably do the same. KDB and others need the rest because the game in Madrid could easily last 120 minutes

 

[Tangled up in blue.]

It's the business end of the season. We've been here many times before. We'll create at least 10 chances, convert 3 of them, and it's 3 points. Anyone watching the 12.20 K.O?

Am I fuck

Will be delighted if it's still in our hands at 7.30pm.

Guys come on. We all love the excitement that goes with a battle for the top. It’s better than winning it or be out of it by now. It’s just that one can handle it a little bit better than others.
It’s great battling for the championship and with a CL semi in between. There’s a whole footie world that envies us.
Look at the fixtures today for the scouslot and us. Newcastle away is far from pretty. Leeds away is not the one you look foreward to if you are Man. City. Big chance of someone dropping points. Maybe both. Doubtfull I know as them and us simply have great players, play great football and have great managers. By far the best teams in the PL. So just sit and enjoy. You might even wanna watch the others.

As for me? I’m not gonna watch and just stand in a corner wetting and shitting meself. No matter what 11 Pep brings out. I will ask any God why I was poisoned with supporting City for 90 minutes without knowing any score. Might even watch the results on Monday. Fck hate this …

I'm thinking of having a media blackout till 7:30 PM then just look at the league table

I might if the Barcodes are 3-0 up in added-on time.

Isn’t 3 days rest long enough for players then, for me they start get a lead and take em off on 60 mins.

Footage of city on Football Focus shows all the weights in sky blue with our badge on. I don’t really push weights anymore but when I did I would have wanted some!

You need to consider the possibility of the game lasting 120 minutes and who is a priority for resting. Like I said, if Klopp is doing it in much more favorable conditions, so will we. It’s more about who’s better off playing only 30 minutes in the second half today if needed. KdB has to be top of the list. Laporte has been playing non-stop as well.

Leeds have one of the worst defences in the league underlined by Meslier having made the most saves of any keepers this season
We should be aiming to up our goal difference vs them
No letting up once ahead as we have done repeatedly earlier in the season

Please let it be one of those types of games.
