Man City are the best club side in the world. They didn't play their strongest 11... neither did we.

In the space of two weeks when we were down in the dumps: 3 wins 4 clean sheets Beat the best side in the world Draw at the San Siro in the CL Smashed our away scoring record Have a number of our better players bang in form Both strikers scoring goals Not been a bad little turn around.

I remember when Isak first joined and he didn't look like one of the lads, now he's front and centre. Tonali will get there.

If he can perform like he did in the second half, every game, that would be a good starting point. That would be my message. If he can do that, I've no doubt his character will grow with the team.

The class lads will be back. Don't you worry.

I'm sorry, you must have made a mistake, it's say 3pm Saturday?

Man United will be more annoyed at the tie than us.

Genuinely not bothered. Bring them on. Need full strength at their place like.

I'll go: Pope 7 Livramento 10 Lascelles 8 Dummett 8 Targett 8 Tonali 6.5 Bruno 9 Joelinton 9 Murphy 7 Isak 8 Gordon 8 Hall and Miley 6

He was bad that first half like but he's new. Second half he could gallop about a bit, which I think suits him.

When we play our best attacking football he comes alive. When we aren't, he gets lost a bit.... where as Wilson often still has some hustle to his game. Both our strikers scoring goals again. Good stuff.

That second half might be a mini turning point.

He's fucking unreal. Lush we can now trust him to give Trippier at rest.

PMd my address.

Called this around 60 minute mark.

Not often you see this lot rattled.

Livramento MOM IMO.

This game as turned into loads of positives, regardless of which way the result goes. The return of Joelinton. Tonalis second half improvement. Livramentos performance.

Aye Isak was fine. He would have went down the tunnel.

That will be Murphy who's done nowt in 5 years.

Well done Tonali. Much better.

We've honestly been ok. Tonali poor but apart from that...

Just to reiterate... Anyone talking in absolutes about Tonali are morons. I only said he's having a bad game. Which I believe is true.

I'd 100% have Miggy and Gordon on.

Just to be absolutely clear... Tonali may be having a honking performance but I still believe in him. He has to play and has to improve. He's a mile off right now. Needs time.
