Hahaha ffs mate chill out. Obviously I'm delighted I'm wrong. I'm a city fan. Of course I'm nihilistic.

That’s true mate, but you said it, you have to own it. You’re are at a point where that applies aren’t you?

Alternative take: Cancelo's sudden departure will be a shot in the arm, everyone will be rested after over a week on the training ground and Haaland will be eyeing up a chance to not only break the record, but set a new one that only he is capable of ever topping. I think we'll win this one.

Seems every five minutes someone wants out, for a side who is chasing a title its unbelievable that morale 'appears so low' . They all moan about not playing but give walker 3 games in a row and he's so fked he gets injured for 4 months. So one eyed todays players.

Be interesting how we go about it tomorrow usually when our team sniff a chance to close the gap they take it by winning the game comfortably and dominating the game! It that happens we on it to win the league if not it’s going to be hard slog till the end to finish top!

Bit of realism needed at times ..and these are them times. Never want to be a southern happy clapper.. I mean listen to Arsenal fans

Agreed. We might win 0-1 with that team but add some pace and energy with Bernie and Phil and we might score a couple more.

Strange, all of a sudden I’m really concerned that we’re looking light on the bench for the rest of the season. Who else is there to call on apart from Alvarez Bernie, and Phil ? Maybe we got enough who knows, just seems a small squad to have to win every game from now on.

That midfield is our best one at the moment imo (it basically comes down to Bernardo or Gundogan becasue the other two are shoe-ins). Same with the front 3.

Could arguably bring Walker in for Rico for his recovery runs when needed

It will be interesting to see how we react to Arsenal’s defeat. In title winning seasons we’ve reacted to slips from rivals by forcing home the advantage with wins. Originally I’d fancy is tomorrow but our new White Hart Lane woes give me pause. We desperately need to get our first goal there and a good performance could really unsettle Arsenal.

Hopefully Haaland enjoys his first visit to north London.

And sometimes they lost then we lost like at Sunderland, at this stage of the season.

That’s it, all about momentum. If we drop points tomorrow it swings back in favour of Arsenal. I’d take any kind of win as long as we come away with 3 points

Our best sides have won games like tomorrow, time to step up and turn up the pressure on Arsenal.

Spurs need to win really re CL spots, might be more open than previous seasons.

Contes not there either.

Simply need to apply pressure to Lloris, chasing him down, shooting from outside the box
and surrounding him at corners.
