Kid Icarus

Odegaard as good as he is would frustrate the life out of me if he played for us, the amount of times he's on the ball and doesn't attempt a killer pass that is quite clearly there to be played is mad.

Instead of a ball it should be a skull

Salah has had one of the weirdest player of the year seasons I've seen as well. I don't think I've watched a match this season where he's been a massive threat every time he's had the ball, or dominated the opposition defence like we've seen him do in the past. He picks his moments to be clinical or pull something put of a hat and gets on the ball enough that eventually it'll happen. It hasn't been a Salah season that we'd expect yet his output has been crazy. I think his match against us at home summed up his season in a way. Pretty quiet, Hall dealt with him really well yet he scored 2 goals, got an assist and hit the bar.

I think it's pretty straightforward this year GK: Sels RB: Muñoz CB: Murillo CB: Burn LB: Kerkez CM: Caicedo CM: Rice CM: Mac Allister RW: Salah ST: Isak LW: Cunha

It's really noticeable when he's playing because the incisive pass is into midfield rather than by the midfield.

Other players have had peaks and troughs, the odd bad performance despite being brilliant overall, no one has been as consistent as Dan Burn, he's been absolutely fantastic this season.

2 games to go with 2nd in our hands is absolutely fucking mental

Thought he was really good today and not just in certain moments. Loved his ball carrying and line splitting in the first half.

He wasn't great, but after having Pawson last week he was very good by comparison.

I'm hearing reports that Merino misses the match vs us

You have a real blind spot with Miley like, it's bizarre. Were you working lates when PSG away was on?

I think Arsenal will make a point of beating us next match tbh

Hei, what a weekend of Premier League football!

Setting a rod for your own back is such a big part of football these days. Forest shouldn't be anywhere near where they are but the owner's still whinging.

That's absolutely shameful from Forest's fat owner

Leicester should be ahead like, Forest are nowhere near good enough for Champions League football.

In the context of nearly everyone else he wasn't great but I thought he had a very good first half.

No idea why the 2nd half went like that but thank fuck for that. Pope: 7.5 Murphy: 8 Schär: 7.5 Botman: 8 Burn: 10 Livramento: 7.5 Tonali: 8 Bruno: 7.5 Barnes: 6 Isak: 5.5 Gordon: 6

You bastard, I was going to post exactly this.

Think it's more about momentum tbh. A lucky draw or a loss in this would really give us the heebiejeebies for the other two imo, whereas a win would do the opposite and we'd go into the last two full of confidence

You're mental yee

Watching it again and wondering what the record is for the amount of times someone's watched it.

Touche. Think Man City were more complacent than Villa will be but let's hope they come unstuck.

Or hungover. Villa will have their eyes on the prize.

I would say it is personally, but let's hope it isn't.
