Pope's a really good goalkeeper apart from his passing.

The game in the final bit was exactly the sort of game that Barnes isn't good at. Defensive, niggly, aggressive. Not attributes he really excels in. Thought he was good before that, I would probably have brought on Osula for him towards the end.

I was just looking at Spurs and Manchester really.

While you're right, that table is still very sexy.

It was a hard second half but I’m sure I was more nervous because the prize of winning was so big.

I didn’t think we were forcing attacks though, we just don’t have enough players who love to keep possession and Chelsea had 3 £100m DMs on the pitch. There are many instances where Pope chooses not to launch a quick counter, I guess that’s tactical.

Shout out to the alt announcer who pronounced Osula correctly but called Madueke ‘Mad-Juke’

Feel like I’ve logged into the wrong forum Nervy second half of course but shouldn’t we all be going mental that we’ve almost made the CL?

Don’t mind the lineup at all, nice to see all the attacking lads in and no Willock. Trips a blow.

Perfect

I'll never really like Barnes on the right.

I've thought a while that a win and 2 draws could do it, but obvs you ideally want the win against Chelsea to relax things.

We probably do have a margin for error TBH, the problem is you don’t know what it is until the end.

I’m sure we don’t need to win all our games. A win tomorrow will make things much clearer, hopefully.

They just want a Bruno.

If you look through the current PL badges, most are decent and most have been redesigned quite recently. The club have indicted a refresh rather than a total departure, so personally I’m optimistic.

I think this was just trendy at the time though, I’m pretty sure we won’t go for anything as extreme as that this time.

I’ve only been thinking about Forest and Chelsea for a while now. Man City are in, Villa were too far behind, it’s just those two we need to focus on. Villa have got slightly closer obviously but overall we would have had to really collapse to finish behind them.

They buy strikers who aren’t really strikers.

No.

Villa shouldn’t matter to us at the end of the season. Uncomfortable if they catch up temporarily but if they finish ahead then we’ve really, really messed it up.

Or Jacob Murphy.

Coventry and Sunderland did finish nearly 30 points each behind the leaders TBF.

I don’t disagree but I don’t think it’s going to break down like that. It’s more general.
