Liverpool has dropped 3 huge points at home to Crystal Palace. City are 2 points ahead having played an extra game than us. We win today and we go back to the top. We win today and we go three crucial points ahead of Liverpool with only 6 games to go. Every game is a cup final now for the boys and Mikel.

Strange decision to start Zinchenko ahead of Kiwior, because Kiwior has been doing better than Zinni and one bad game doesn’t mean we are going to hamper his confidence. If it’s purely for rotational purpose, I can live with it. Gabriel Jesus makes his way into the starting XI with Rice anchoring the midfield alone with Havertz playing the more forward role today. Trossard starts today ahead of Martinelli whom I think will come-in at some point to give Saka some rest.
Frankly, I had hated the concept of playing Havertz as CF but he has been doing better up top than he does in midfield. Gabriel Jesus does the dirty work but is not as clinical in front as you would expect your CF to be. Trossard gives me some hope though.
Liverpool is suffering the way we did last season. One loss and everything has gone bonkers for them. They were unbeaten at home from god knows when, and suddenly Atlanta wins 3-0 and they can’t even keep Crystal Palace to a draw. City, on the other hand, have gone full beast mode.
We need to win today. At any cost. First, because Pep is not going to drop any points now and the only way we win the league is by winning all our games. Second, I hate Aston Villa.
Right, a very short one today. See you during the game.
MB, fair to say Trvl has an issue to prevent ‘weasels’ as he cals them.
I think that means anyone who sensibly thinks his opinions are mostly, mostly, irrational.
If we’re going to indulge his LG PTSD then we won’t get much in the way of sensible discussion.
I’ve kept my counsel since I saw I was in the greys, didn’t even bother but it looks like Trv is now working through Aitcho PTSD too. I hadn’t changed anything about my email, id or otherwise.
We’ve all seen every type of crank online but I have to question the sense of proportion from a poster calling someone a ‘cunt’ (apologies) because they take the view Havertz is a decent striker and Arteta is a good manager.
Time to enjoy the new post, enjoy the celebrations.
Depends how recent you mean Trvl. The last two seasons we’ve been challenging. That’s not shit management. That’s the body of work. It’s not complicated.
You just sound like you’re holding grudges. LG, Serge, Arteta, Aitcho. Like a disenchanted wife. You’re so hurt you want Pedro to be wrong rather than us be good. Like those pricks who wanted Arsenal to lose just to see Wenger go.
You can think Pedro is a dick and accept when we’re doing well at the same time. We wouldn’t disagree much. Don’t let your sensitivity guide you, watch the football.
Sorry, I’ll add Positive Pete to your PTSD list.
Don’t mention my name if you’re too sensitive to have an adult discussion. I don’t bring up yours randomly because they would be petty.
Off you trot. Cheers
Ambarish–like I said, the word salad master couldn’t leave well enough alone…he even had to go so far as to pull the old “run to mummy” ploy, with talk of obscene language and such…sorry you had to endure a series of truly embarassing posts by someone who actually refers to themselves in the 3rd person…Cheers
Let it go Trvl
It’s a football blog and your football opinions are generally rubbish. This is your basic issue and why you got ripped on LG, not some conspiracy you loon.
Go run to MB, in truth, he knows you’re a bit unhinged too. People ganging up on you indeed. It’s not you, okay bit you, it’s your lack of football insight and blowhardiness to go with it.
Chill. Cheers.
