Salah hits the bar

Hope Palace can grab a goal, could do with Liverpool dropping some points 

4-0

Long evening for Bournemouth 

Billing with an awful pass, gives it to Foden who makes it 3-0

If you said to them they’d be promoted but we’d win the cup a huge chunk of them would reject it.

100%

I've asked that question of Mackems before and they didn't even hesitate

Not a great set of results for them today, and not one draw in the 11 fixtures.

 

WBA, Norwich, Luton, Millwall and Blackburn winning was bad, obviously Coventry as well, as those were all within a few points (either side) of them before kick off.

 

Midtable Reading and Preston both beat sides near the bottom to move within range of them, so that's 8 poor results out of the 11 fixtures.

 

Burnley vs Huddersfield was pretty irrelevant as neither are anywhere near them at the respective ends of the table, and likewise there was only one point between Bristol C and Hull, so no obvious favourable result there.

 

Sheff Utd beating Watford was the only result that they would have been happy with.

 

 

 

 

But there is only one result they really care about and that is the one tomorrow 

They'd accept relegation if it was guaranteed we would lose 

4 points off a play off spot, bit of a drop off considering they were working out what was needed to catch Shefd Utd in 2nd place

They get one back, great finish from Diallo

They still have time to shout at the Jimmy Hill statue, so might not be a completely wasted trip 

Marracelona are hit with a counter and are now losing 2-0

Ref has been very generous to Sunderland, ball clearly goes out but no throw in given to Coventry

Wonder how long until some bitter mackem storms Angel Mound and restores historical order by reclaiming part of Gateshead. 

They'll need volunteers to do that and we know when it comes to the Mackems they always want someone else to do it

From the mackems?

Nah, the Ecuadorian Kendry Paez 

It's quite ironic he's made those comments the day after his team was wasting time as they were beating Barca

Sensible deal, it's about the right length of time. Hopefully we can add another player in the summer so he can provide competition to him.

It's becoming a bit of a trend that they start slow and grow into the game.

Aye

It's important we start fast and take any chances that come our way 

Only 5 mins?

And Fernandes there with a blatant dive but gets the foul

I think Haaland hates it too.

 

I spent a lot of the game just watching him when they have the ball. The number of fantastic runs that guy makes into space off the ball while his team mates are looking right at him and they just turn and pass it backwards!

 

He looked fed up of it at one point.

Yeah, I think there was one towards the end that particularly annoyed him

It's so strange they won't play him in at every possible opportunity 

And as I type that, they get their equaliser 

Leipzig causing City problems 

Mistake from Leipzig, Mahrez punishes them, deserved lead

Reckon the team will be this:

 

                     Karius

 

Trippier   Schar   Botman   Burn

 

  Longstaff   Bruno   Joelinton

 

Almiron                                ASM 

                        Isak

 

Bench:  Gillespie, Targett, Lascelles, Manquillo, Ritchie, Willock, Anderson, Murphy, Wilson 

I think he starts Wilson over Isak

Didn't even know they were playing. Even if they miss out on the play offs it's been a fantastic season for them. It'll be hard to replicate with loans going back and the loss of Stewart, so they might have to accept this as a tide Mark season until they get their own star players in. 

They were doing some maths to work out if they can catch Sheff Utd in 2nd place, no chance that they'll be satisfied with finishing outside the play offs

Wow, love Benzema

This delightful to watch 

What a game

They better not disallow this 

How easy was that? Lovely stuff
