Any thoughts on this? Bluff or looking at their euro semi final and other winnable PL games

Doubt it is true , they need to have a go and anything is possible , we have dropped points to worse teams than them

I almost posted about this theory, it won’t change their approach but definitely affects their quality, it would be the smart move for them

Bullshit, they need 3 points as badly as us

I just think you need to make a calculated gamble here. Rodri looked like he was going to drop dead on the pitch vs Fulham. As arguably our most important player- we need him as fresh as possible for Madrid.

100% but in a double pivot wit Rodders.

Sub Rodders on 60m for Gundog if we are unsupassable.

Hmm they do but that’s all they need from 5 games - 3 points and will be safe. Don’t see 3 of the 5 below getting to 37 pts.

Slightly different quotes from Sky:

Nathan [Ake] trained with us yesterday which was good. Kevin [De Bruyne] didn't train with us yet but will train with us later today. Training is at 4pm but I think Nathan is good."

Started to move is what Pep said.
I guess a translation is: started to be fine in football terms.

Could make sense. They have a pile up of fixtures too and this is the perfect chance to give the ever presents a breather so they're ready for the run in and games they have a better chance of picking up points in.

If we weren't playing at home I'd be more reluctant but we'll still dominate the midfield with Bernie/Gundo/Phillips or whomever it may be.

Twin pivot with Rodders.

Sub Rodders orrf on 60m if we're unsurpassable.

Visa versa v BFS....time for Philips to do some heavy lifting !!

Relegation is two from four for me and that doesn’t include West Ham.

Philips nowhere near the team please.
