  1. Can't see any complacency. Generally speaking, we're good at dispatching teams towards the bottom of the league.
  2. Seems Bournemouth will get picked apart this summer, with Chelsea pushing for Huijsen and Liverpool for Kerkez.
  3. No doubt Villa's focus will switch to the FA Cup final if they win on Saturday too.
  4. The Tonali to Juve talk is very odd. There's seems to be an acknowledgement that we're not willing sellers, but Juve have initiated contact with the player's camp regardless.
  5. VAR absolutely can work: Check "clear and obvious" mistakes only i.e. clear hand balls or instances off the ball that the referee might have missed. Anything contentious or requiring a subjective view, we stick with the onfield call. Stop sending refs to the monitor. It adds another unnecessary layer to the process. Give a buffer or a margin for errors to eliminate immaterial offside calls. Better communication with the fans in the stadium. i.e. what is being checked and why? If it isn't going to be stripped back to serve its original purpose, bin it.
  6. Forest v Brentford could be an absolute eye sore. Brentford are a really awkward team to play against and won't provide too much space for the Forest counter attack.
  7. No doubt, but not sure he'd be down for being a rotation option at an English club.
  8. Asencio was a straight loan, Rashford had an option to buy iirc. Think it'd be a mistake to take up the latter though.
  9. City fans protesting ticket prices last night. £70 was the cheapest going allegedly, ridiculous.
  10. Didn't we score after about ten seconds at their place?
  11. If they lose this weekend they're down. Got a few injuries and suspensions too, which won't help their cause. We need to keep out wits about us, they've recently nicked points at Villa and Chelsea, but we're normally very good v teams towards the bottom of the league. If we go into this at full tilt, it should be a comfortable afternoon. 3-1
  12. I'm a big Cuhna fan, on paper he'd be a great pick up for Man United. With that lot, it doesn't always work out like that though.
  13. Christ, one defeat and it smells like a urinal that hadn't been cleaned for months in here.
  14. Chelsea is different because it's a six pointer.
  15. It wasn't too dissimilar to the City game in a lot of respects. When the man for man press works, it's brilliant, but when it doesn't, our paceless defence is dragged all over the show. You can see why we pursued Guehi, but it'd be nice to see a bit more tactical flexibility in these situations until we can buy a fix.
  16. I think Fab has since reported he's open to a move to Man United too.
  17. Hasn't changed too much. The Palace result gave us the breathing space for a weekend like this.
  18. It's all that matters. We just need to do our job.
  19. To be honest, if any player picks Man United over us at this minute in time, I'd rather not have them.
  20. Parker is also an incredibly smug cunt.
  21. No one really has any momentum at the moment. Tough to pick a winner.
