Oh heck, I’ve not worn my new boots in yet. They’re still giving me blisters. Do you think they’ll be ok by Wednesday?
Plus do you think Forest might notice I’m an imposter? Good job you’ve said you hope I get an evening off….but you know Pep he likes to be contrary.




Ohhhh just realised I can’t play Wednesday, I’ll have to get a sick note from the doctor as I’m having my Diabetic Eye screening test and the drops affect your vision. Seeing two balls and blurry ones at that could be bad for me scoring!! Sorry @jimharri but I’ll have to leave it to the professionals! :-) :-) :-)

EB = "Expensive Bony"!

Phewww, you had me worried there. I can relax now. :-)

Give ball to Viking.
Viking score.

As Cloughie said, it's a simple game.

I hope they give our front 3 as much room and give the ball away as much as they’re doing at the moment on Wednesday

WE all know they won't. They'll play out of their skins, score a couple of worldies, defend like demons and kick lumps out of us.

I thought Forest were great yesterday. They played good attractive football but had no real goal threat to finish it off. If we're not on our game on Wednesday we could come unstuck.

Also was pleasantly surprised to notice they’ve played on the front foot against teams so far. Not saying they will Wednesday but if they do Haaland will probably bag another hatrick as the gaps for Spurs were insane yesterday. Kane didn’t have the pace a few times and still should have had a hatrick. Different story if that’s the big man.

Just seen Cooper on MOTD2 whining about City's extra day of recovery

Disappointing I thought he was less of a moaner than most bosses

Ha, he hardly moaned about it. He commented on it (as it’s a fact, we do have an extra day) and then almost laughed it off.

Seen much more moaning than that tbh.

Haaland wont be happy not starting, when you’re after the golden boot you don’t want benching against Forest at home

 

[Gumzy97]

If Forest play like they did yesterday with that space in behind, Haaland gets 4 especially if Gundogan plays.

Trust me he has a doppelganger who I used to work with
