Rico back in the starting lineup.

Depends if this is all CL or bust. If that’s what this season is about I’m all aboard.

I'd be with the fa cup tbh, we have not got it in us to win the champions league.

I’d normally agree with you, but sides have won it against the odds. We would need Stonesy and Dias to have any chance of winning it.

 

[Father Paul]

Rico back in the starting lineup.

I agree. The main thing is we get a reaction to today's result. I think the disgraceful decision by the officials will galvanise our boys. We have not been great too true but this group have performed more than one miricle over recent years. We need to get behind them and help them turn the corner and move forward into the spring.

Yes true tbh, the 2 times Chelsea won it they had shocking domestic seasons

Wish this game was tomorrow feel like we need a game quickly to put today behind us

Hoping that today stings the players for the next few days, and they come out flying against Spurs

Will be a tough game as always but could also be the start of a good run if we can get a good 3 points

Hope so as this ‘good run’ as been touted for a while.

Oh dear there is some really debbie downers isnt there on in here in run up to the game.

Come on guys yes today didnt get the result we wanted but it doesnt mean were down and out. were second in league, through in fa cup and champions league without playing out best. While arsenal and united are playing their best were still on the coat tails. Remember last season how far we were ahead of the dippers around this time and what happened. weve still to play arsenal twice in league. and arsenal next two league fixtures are spurs and united.

Hopefully kane gets a booking tommorow. And spurs get a result (which i think they will)

I think peps comments today with regards to not winning stuff is his way of creating a siege mentality amongst us all so lets get behind the boys.

Weve got level to go up yet.

Get behind the boys on thursday, make the etihad rock. I know spurs are usually our bogie team but we can do this.


my team would be ederson walker dias (if fit) stones (if fit laporte if not) cancelo, rodri bernie kev (would go gundo but feel like he cancelo and jack operate in same space) grealish mahrez and haaland.

 

[Fordyboy46]

The inevitable seasonal loss against these twats who know how to play us. City 0 Spurs 2, with zero reaction again

 

[Tony - MCFC]

We were unlucky today, completely done over by the officials.

We can be much better still and have to believe we’ll improve . Dias and Stones back shortly is good.

We’ll win this one.

 

[Manchester_lalala]

I’m getting bored of saying we owe these cunts a battering every season.

 

[Stiff Little Wingers]

Then we are in with a shot, right?

Yes, we usually have one a game these days

 

[Brad mcfc]

We've dropped enough points against dog shit teams this season, 3 points is a must.

 

[Millwallawayveteran1988]

The match day prices for this game are scandalous.

What’s not to like about £68 for adults and £45 a child at the top of SS3. We are completely taking the piss pricing wise at the moment. My sister asked about getting 2 adult and 2 child tickets for Arsenal in the cup and it was over £130 for a Friday night TV cup game. Lot of dough that in January.

 

[kippaxchris]

Oh goody! Cant wait for spurs to do the exact same as the rags today and hit us on the break for 2 goals Whilst we complete 879 passes in the middle third.

were desperate for stones or dias back.

we need a change of formation.

Middle 3rd? Generous that

I agree mate. The cup games in particular. It was never this expensive for a 4th round cup game. It used to be one of the only ways people on lower incomes could go as well.

The Chelsea game was just about ok at £35. Even that’s too much in my opinion

 

[bondsman]

These twats are our bogey side. Expect Son to finish like Messi us to have 98% possession and lose.

It is. Problem is, you target the Director of “matchday revenue” to achieve X amount of growth on last year and this is what happens. The club slap itself on the back when they release their accounts with matchday revenue increasing by 15% whilst the family who live 5 miles away are debating whether to bite the bullet and pay it or give up going completely. I was in 231for the Chelsea game and it was day trippers all over with bags full of merchandise. Just what the club wants.

It’s a joke mate. Long term I think the club will massively regret it. I think this an issue across football. Younger fans aren’t going to football games anymore. Its mainly people in their 50s and above at most grounds.

Give it 15 years and there will be a big gap in our support when our mainly older support stops going.

In a way I hope the bubble bursts one day.

That's why it's so shit going to the match nowadays mate
