You might laugh but I am not.

Ha, only messing but fuck me, you should re-evaluate your priorities.

No

I am not bothered about winning the league. Just beat them twice so they are below us. That is all.

Is it worth pointing out that if we win the league they'll definitely be below us, regardless of the derby results?

Good point. Forgot about that.

That's Varane and Lindelof injured. Not sure they've got enough personnel to even play 3-5-2 at this rate.

Lindelof didn't play because of a minor injury he will be fit for Saturday. From what I've seen of Varane too I genuinely couldn't be bothered if he started he's another player that is their to be got at ams prone to mistakes. He's definitely the best of a bad bunch though, Slabhead and Lindelof are shite.

and of course if VAR was about then, not a single decision would be overruled, just like now.

What about Youngs challenge on Sergio, 17-18 season waived away by the referee!, unbelievable !!

With our current shambolic form I just hope we can limit their scoring to under 5

sniff , sniff , you will get a few with that.

Thought i would catch the 2nd half as there was every chance the Rags would get beat by Atalanta , can anyone explain to me their tactics or system , there doesnt appear to be any structure to their football. They play ninety minutes waiting for a piece of individual skill to get them out of the shit , when you watch ourselves , Chelski , Dippers even teams like Brighton, Palace , you have a jist of their style of football , but the Rags just play off the cuff.
If we play to anywhere near our capabilites and allowing for the half a dozen guilt edged chances we will miss , just cannot see a poorly coached outfit like the Rags getting anything , if they do scrape a draw then we seriously have to re-evaluate or title ambitions , the Rags are a mid table team with a geriatric forward line occasionally bailing them out.

Pass the ball to ronaldo and cross your fingers.
That's the game plan.

If we can put away half as many chances as we constantly spunk away, we should batter them.
However, the buffoon will have seen how WHU & Palace set up against us. He will be overjoyed with a draw which will seem like a victory to them after getting humiliated by the dippers.
We cannot afford to lose this game. If we do, I fear it’s the start of a slide and we could be looking at a mini slide.
