Means Tripps would get to lift the FA Cup

As good as him! High praise from the troglodytes.

Not much spin on the articles, just reporting. Plus I like minesweeper and can usually do the crossword. Job’s a good un!

Canny paper; stupid name.

Chipped a bone in the joint if my big toe about three years ago. Still hurts at times and my performance, ball striking, definitely affected. Pretty sure I could hit top bins from 25 yards 9 times out of 10 before that (… last bit may not be strictly true )

Fair enough but looked really, really promising against Villa. Though still without really clicking/being on the same wavelength as Bruno; which takes game time and working on same side repeatedly in training. After that, non-verbals looked off and performance dipped. Personally I think it was because he knew what was coming. I watched some of his Milan and Italy snippets a few weeks ago, no doubting he’ll be one hell of an asset/upgrade when on form.

Nice phrase ? can only get it to make sense in my head if Speedway related!

By saying you’re going to lose something, then not taking it away, making you think you have been given something? (Twice)

Similar gait didn’t hamper this lad too much.

Aye, but can you get decent stotties?

Well this place is not much fun at the mo. Roll on Villa… no Fulham… err best make it February. Roll on February.

Maybe coming back to sell?

Here’s hoping for extra time and pens in their semi final 3 days before our game.

Did you not go through a ‘seemingly psychic’ phase in predicting transfers? Shame on you and your mind bending superpowers!

Awesome compilation. The team’s he has scored against man! ?

Very ‘crabby’ comment ?

Rabbits! You missed rabbits!

Is midseason league position the only relevant factor? How about the spectacular football we’ve seen? Having players like Isak, Bruno, Gordon, Botman, Trippier? How about witnessing the resurgence of multiple players from what looked like a relegation fodder squad? The absolutely remarkable second half of the season, year before last? Finishing 4th last year. A cup final. A Champions League adventure? Recently beating Man Utd twice, City once, Arsenal, Spurs, Villa, PSG and generally holding our own against top teams—including the two most recent Liverpool defeats? Even our biggest ever away victory might feature? We can then think where we may finish this season and what could still happen in the FA Cup? Given on our day we can beat anyone. Start to sound like a more reasonable return for the outlay to you? Plus, more than anything, the sense of having a team able to compete. An ethos, team culture and sense of camaraderie we can be proud of. I’m pretty happy with the return to be honest.

Recall people on here touring him as an option/rumour don’t know if there was anything in it, club wise, mind.

Marcelino as sleeve sponsor? ☝️

To be fair like, City are great at finding that space. I think it was Foden last time they beat us who kept popping up unmarked and they do it against others too.

Howay man, ‘Jim’! Get with the programme, I only remember your wondrous dribbles not the losses of possession!

?

Was that after the amazing double tackle in the box then getting clattered by Rodri? Can’t remember the time off the top of my head, but he was fantastic and that sequence of play deserves more love.

I watched their game yesterday, paying more attention than usual. This could be a really tough game even if, as it seems, we are on the up for wise. Whilst they seem a bit ponderous going forward at times, they are super organised and difficult to break down. I thought Palhinha and Willian (crafty as fuck…) played particularly well.
