Always thought he should have dominated more games. Compared to Maradona or Messi, for example.

 

I couldn't really say. I was only 12 or so when he scored that volley in the final, 8 when he scored those 2 headers v Brazil at the WC. We didn't have sky sports so was limited to watching tid bits of him on itv or BBC in champions league or international tournaments. Just remember being in awe of him. Obviously, I know Messi and Ronaldo are way ahead of him and me saying he's the greatest of all time is largely down to sentiment from when I was growing up.

Glasner had even said Munoz had an injury yet he was still the one whose name got wrongly bandied about. 

 

Absolutely shocking that, especially for those people that had him in their Fantasy Team and were looking at ways to take him out that didn't cost -4 points

I've seen the importance of the derby vs our other fixtures discussed on Social Media. Interested to know how you would rank our next 4 games? Leverkusen CL, Sunderland PL, Fulham LC QF and Chelsea PL

 

For me its 

 

Fulham LC QF (Most important)

Leverkusen CL

Sunderland PL

Chelsea PL

Ignoring the rest, you would take a win over Chelsea in the league over getting into another Semi Final?

Yep, we will be playing need to beat two of Arsenal, Chelsea or City to win the thing. We did it last year but we will be under dogs in all of those games and probably a 10% chance of winning the entire thing. Beat Chelsea we take points off a CL rival and our hardest remaining home game which puts us in a great spot to get CL again.

Fulham

Mackems

Leverkusen 

Chelsea

 

We're only a few games away from the Carabao final again so that has to be priority.

 

Not losing the derby is important IMO.

 

We can lose at Leverkusen and still qualify for at least a play-off spot in the CL if we win either PSV or PSG. Two draws might even do it.

 

Chelsea will be the hardest game anyway and out of the two league games, I'd rather avoid defeat against the mackems.

The opportunity that Leverkusen presents in terms of top 8 prospects is too great to rotate too heavily, but it's easily the least important of those four games imo. We could win or lose and still finish between 9th and 16th.

 

We can't be letting the mackems get one over us and the league campaign is just too crucial for us to not prioritise, and beating Fulham puts us in a terrific chance to retain a trophy for the first time since the 50s.
