Will Akanji be fit?
Who said this?

You did

 

[Goaters]

Pep said last night he was happy with the control and pacing of the game, but we just lacked that killer touch. There is no way we will change anything up, usually we go more control led against United even when we’re in top form.

Ederson
Walker
Akanji
Dias
Gvardiol
Gundo
Grealish
Kbd
Foden
Haaland
Nunes

we will try and break the game into a controlled defensive masterclass where we limit translations which is where they are best suited.

The problem we seem to have is in attack we have no players when the balls actually put in the box, while in defence we are usually outnumbered. Therefore most our players are gathered in their half trying to keep the ball without doing anything of note. Therefore not contributing to us scoring or not conceding.

I’m fairly numb to this run of form now though, but if we do lose to this dog awful united team Pep will come under huge pressure in the press.

I think we can’t blame injuries for 1 win in 10 as on paper we still have the better players than teams we are playing against. We lack players in there prime, apart from Dias, Foden and Haaland (who hasn’t stepped up like he should), bring on the rebuild.

If Kovacic is fit enough for 70 mins then he has to start. Our midfield is dire.

 

[Dunne's own goal]

it's gonna be a massacre. I can easily see this being worse than the spurs result

High line...............what could possibly go wrong???

Absolutely, even an 80% fit Kovacic will be better than the current pile of crap we have for a midfield

There is distinct possibility that we will not win another match until the 3rd round of the FA Cup, and even that is no longer a certainty.

Bring the noise, passion and intensity.....its the filthy vermin rags !!

The best game possible in our current predicament, everyone should be bang up for it.

Give em hell !!

Most helpful when we need backbone not backdown !!
