Why the fuck are we playing on a Thursday ??? Thought that was exclusively reserved for rubbish teams who didn’t really deserve to be in Europe and played in various joke competitions
This is the CL opening week, spreading the games over three days to showcase more teams and games for armchair fans to watch. The two minor European competitions aren’t taking place this week, it’s just a CL week.

It happened last season and is going to happen every season now.

I hope Kev drops a stinker tonight, anything more and this place will be full of the 'I told you so' crowd that pop up everytime a former player does anything half decent. I'll always love the fella and be grateful for what he did for the club, but we have to move forward. So, lead boots tonight Kev lad ;)

Still would have kept Kev, not starting every game but what an option from the bench...

maybe that wasnt an option, he himself said that he felt that he could still play at a high level despite evidence to the contrary and if he wanted to starts then this was absolutely the right move for him as the italian league isnt as quick but he was never a 40 game high intensity player anymore.
 
Went into Cafe Napoli in Astley for and early snack. NICO the owner is going to watch his beloved Napoli. We are very friendly about it but we both want our own team to win.

I’ve given out to every rag I’ve seen in a shirt and all the rags I know.

Just ask them, “So who are you drawn against? Seem to have missed that.”
 
im not in denial of anything, im just not in the habit of overreacting to a couple of bad results either but each to their own.
It's not just the results - good or bad.

Even in our wins this season we have looked miles away from the dizzy heights we once stood.

We've dispatched 2 relegation candidates. We even allowed the worst United side in years nearly even out possesion against us.

Second half we allowed them 70 per cent possesion. That is poor by any standards.

I think that's exactly where we were clever. For once, we let the opposition have the ball. Apart from that magnificent save by Donnarumma, we not only completely contained them, we added a third goal just to settle it. They barely did anything with all their possession.

We may all be more similar than we like to admit...
 
Whatever anybody thinks of Napoli, they are as tough as Pot 3 teams get

Pot 3
Tottenham (ENG)
PSV Eindhoven (NED)
Ajax (NED)
Napoli (ITA)
Sporting CP (POR)
Olympiacos (GRE)
Slavia Praha (CZE)
Bodø/Glimt (NOR)
Marseille (FRA)

Not a kind draw

Im reacting to four titles in a row and a third place finish in one of our worst seasons in a decade, i would say thats a fairly big sample size compared to two bad results
