I thought...hang on, he means the Yaya of 5 years ago.

Then I came to my senses. You are correct. Yaya at 5 would still have destroyed the Ragamuffins.

funny thing i said the other day is we have missed a captain or leader on the pitch and in tight games ?? somebody that gets hold of the game by himself and wins it and yaya did that and kompany on his day did that, its the one thing missing for me and its great having youth to the team but having somebody to lead them what makes them great

KDB is turning into that player and in the couple of games we have seen him this season he shown drive and ordering the team around and demanding more so maybe next season will see KDB as club captain and given the role with my blessing
 
Shit or bust there is no in-between to glory or to hell which we'll have to deal with if the dippers win the league.

I could have written that.

However, you did.

So, thank you! ;)

A draw would mean we need Liverpool to at least draw a game themselves with us winning all 3 remaining fixtures.

Could you handle this?

We draw tonight and Liverpool draw to Wolves!

Truth is, if we’re drawing late on tonight we have to throw absolutely everything at it.

Liverpool arnt throwing any points away now, we simply have to win. These fuckers are there for the taking.

1-3

the draw/losing tonight kills any chance of retaining the title and will be over with now the FA cup final being used to highlight picking and resting players and giving a couple more of the youth players a chance to shine, maybe we can get KDB fit for the FA cup final and then go full strength vs watford

I'd rather go down trying to outscore them than waiting for bad luck to intervene.

What I will say about United, they created enough early chances this month at Wolves before losing.

No Herrera in the squad which is a surprise, so expecting McTominay, Lingard and Pogba in the middle.

Yeah, I was surprised that Herrera seemingly isn't in the squad. I guess they've just decided to exclude him and plan for the future now that he's leaving. Either that, or he not fully fit. Either way, I think their team would be stronger tonight with him in it.

forget what team united are putting out we must respect them and play 2 holding and keep the wing backs deep ?? we must go out tonight and play no lose football and forget all guns blazing and try to out score them ?? we have it in us to play our own game but must earn the right first with a goal or 2 and then settle and make them change up and open things up

pep will not change much other than injury to KDB so both silva's will play and sterling on one of the wings aguero up top on his own, the back line is the puzzle and does kompany demand a start and laporte looked off his game in the spurs game so anybody to partner the skipper for me

We only know one way of playing. We will play that way tonight and utd will be the ones to adapt.

Have you taken your medication, sunny? Liverpool will more likely hit six past Huddersfield and close the goal difference gap. We simply have to win all of our remaining games of which Burnley (A) and Leicester (H) are trickier than anything the Dippers face. We can still make it but it will need excellence in all aspects of our game.

Of course that is the likely outcome but they are due a game everything goes against them.
