Buy her a spa treat for today and go pick up a case of beers

If she's going to a Spar ask if she could pick you up some beers. & some crisps while she's there?

This will be a tight game , Saints might have lost three on the bounce but as usual they will rasie their game for their cup final wouldnt be surprised if it went to penalties.
Not sure what Pep will do with the forthcoming international break there isnt a requirement to rest players but i suspect a few fringe players will get the nod

STEFFEN
WALKER , STONES , AKE , ZINCHENKO
KDB , DINHO , GUNDOGAN
STERLING , JESUS , GREALISH

Just to let the BBC know that is a £430m team , so they can continually mention it in the build up , the Dippers team starting against Forest will be around the same value, which will go unnoticed because the Dippers players were all life long family season ticket holders and play for free and for the love of the club.

Surely pep goes full strength for this bar probably steffen in goals?

 

[paulchapo]

It's time we beat these game raising fuckers I'm sick of them playing out of their skins against us.

Four up by half time

Just read the BBC preview of the game and they couldnt help themsleves , they had to mention "City's expensively assembled squad" they have never done that for the Rags even when Middlesbro tipped them out of the cup.
Even the Dippers £500m squad didnt get a mention whilst playing a ten bob Forest team , and they failed to mention the best centre back in the world is paid more per week then the entire Forest team.

They used the same line in an article about all 4 ties. Chelsea were referred to as the Champions league winners, we were the league leaders (no mention of being champions) and the totally unnecessary mention of money.

Great to see that a rag/dipper in the BBC’s employ is so bitter, insecure and hurting sufficiently that they’re resorting to that sort of shite.

Drink it in!

The same boring bullshit written about us by the bbc ,whilst turning a blind eye to liverpoo's spending .

Big performances needed from G Jesus and Sterling today assuming they play, time to show what they are capable of ready for the run in.

No I don't think Southampton will start that well. Maybe 2-0 before City fight back.

 

[jimharri]

That Spurs/West Ham game looks promising. I might watch that instead.

 

[Saddleworth2]

Is Steffen fit for today? Anyone know?

Yes he is

The City game will be almost over before the Spurs game starts.

 

[ftg89]

Anyone who has arrived… where’s best to park please?

As has been commented on here several times now; unsuitable username..)

 

[Zin 'messiah' Zimmer]

We need this, we all want to see us hitting form at the right time and this game is a perfect springboard

1-3, sterling back in the goals

 

[kaz7]

Come on blueboys , lovely sunny day on the south coast , lets get the win !

 

[Millwallawayveteran1988]

In the away game a couple of months ago, were dire for the first 25 mins so hopefully will start much quicker today and put them on the back foot from the off.

 

[deano ou812]

Can see this going to extra time but not pens ..maybe after this game with the international break next it will give some players a sort of break,just to get away and recharge in a different environmen,then hopefully come back for an all out assault on league and cups ..
