We do not need two defensive minded midfielders for this game it worked against Spuds in a diffciult away game but we are playing an out of form mid table team at home , i would play Doku instead of Kovacic and lets take the game by the scruff of the neck.
Play with two wide men Bernardo and Doku , Phil & KDB pulling the strings and Rodders playing the enforcer , not forgetting Haaland needs a hat-trick to reach over 30 goals agains , he's 11/2 to do it, stealing money ;)
Rodri and Kova, it's a no brainer.

They are hardly DM's either, both very accomplished footballers.

Kova is lovely to watch, the consumate Pep player for me.

Doku starting is not the same as Doku off the bench either.

No fucking about with formation and go with what has worked!
 
Just plucked this off the BBC website:

Chelsea wrapped up a sensational fifth successive Women's Super League title by thrashing Manchester United at Old Trafford in Emma Hayes' final game in charge.

If we have a similar result tomorrow that lands a fifth title would we get a similar paragraph?

Zero chance, we'd find ourselves behind Flopp as the main story, I'll guarantee that

Sutton BBC Website…

”Like most people, I am sick of them winning but you have to admire them because they are an absolute machine”
We're not a MACHINE though, are we? We're a collection of human beings who have doubts and fears, pressure and injuries to deal with alongside tactics that aren't working. We've played so many games in recent years that the players have to endure both physical and psychological tiredness that was obvious recently in the games against Chelsea and Forest. We're a collection of human beings who deal with all these things and win through.

Sutton is a dull-witted turd.
 
I can already vision the scenario tomorrow.
Arsenal take the lead. Table shown.
West Ham score. Table shown.
Everybody is giddy as fck.
And after the final whistle City celebrates winning the title. Because I do believe we will won it one way or the other.

Could do without the drama, but we seem to do it the ‘boring’ way as in excite everyone to sent them home disillusioned.
 
Wife's birthday tomorrow, managed to coerce her into thinking instead of going out for tea a BBQ and cocktails in the back garden would be the perfect day (and she thinks it was her idea).... Currently manoeuvring the TV to the patio doors

Come on you blue boys!!!!

Tbf to Sutton, that's a compliment. Everything he says is with a dry wit and sarcasm.

Nonsense.

They aren't both defensive minded for a start. With kova on the pitch rodri can get forward (he's contributed almost 20 goals/assists this season). With rodri on the pitch kova can dribble and drive at them, break the lines which he has been awesome at for the last month.

Both have to start.

Wide reinforcements around the hour mark when the irons begin to "tyre"

I'm not sure you've really watched recent games if you think kovacic is a purely defensive minded midfielder. He's one of the best progressive passers in the side, he's always looking to pass forward and between the lines first.

He gets us playing, the ball moves quickly and incisively with kovacic which is what allows the players infront of him to find themselves in space in dangerous positions with the ball. It's no coincidence we've looked much more fluid as well as more solid with kovacic in the side. Pep would have to be insane to consider dropping him right now.
 
Nerves have kicked in. Trying to distract myself with anything I can find. One minute I am confident, the next I can't stop thinking how hard it can be to win a football match.

Hoping for a comfortable win. The lads have been here before and we have an almost fully fit squad to pick from so got to trust they'll put in a better performance than Villa, CL first half and Tuesday first half and get the job done nicely for us all.
 
Anyone travelling from north Wales (Bangor/ Conwy area)with room for two more? Happy to pay petrol costs
