Forest are 3rd and PSG are at worst the second best team in Europe atm. Villa are real deal. -

Need them out the race before their last 2 games. Those are banker wins. Got us then City, then Fulham, then Bournemouth. If they get 7 points from those they will probably be in the running. If we get to 68 points none of that will matter. -
It was a nice goal tbf.
-
Did they celebrate this goal?
-
They’ve looked awful in every game I’ve seen bar this second half. Had Bowen in FPL for awhile - they were pap. I think managers need to start well and get results. To get the belief of the players, owners and fans.
-
Potter is such an uninspiring hire. Dull football manager.
-
They are shit.
-
A draw is fantastic. Massive games for us now.
-
He’s going to Saudi or similar. MLS maybe.
-
I said when we signed him the stats suggest he gives the ball away a fair amount. And he does for us. It’s fine no player is perfect. Isak is one footed and has stamina issues. Bruno G is slow. They are still tip top players

People in the know said when Tonali joined that he wasn’t a traditional registrar that was metronomic with his passing. He gave it away a lot. and we see that now. He’s an extremely high action player. He moves the ball very quickly. Sometimes that leads to sloppy passing where a little patience is better. It’s the one thing preventing him from being truly top tier. The best central midfielders usually know when to slow it down and when to speed it up. Tonali is nearly always going quick. That suits our style but doesn’t help with some of our possession issues.
-
Agreed. Annoyingly Everton will be live opponents in our final game. Let’s end it all before then. They are a bad fit for us if we need 3 points. Thankfully I think the last game at Goodison will be so emotional they won’t have much left to give.
-
Yep. This is why I wanted Villa to lose last week. They are quality and have depth. They just have too many games to get 66+ points imo. But they neee to dropping points and get out the race asap.
-
Southampton are too shit.
-
Best defender suspended. Called it a massive miss last week when it happened. He’s back for us.

We need some space from Villa
