Are you sure about us playing with a keeper?
We haven't in many of our previous games.
I'll settle for that Steve.

Bravo is injured. So our chances of not conceding the first shot on target we face have significantly improved this week.

I don't want the ball going anywhere near our goalie unless its to take goal kicks, don't trust any of them, or our back line as well unless komps is in

It's hard to second guess him. I just hope we play with some urgency. We have failed to score more home goals than Hull this season. It's time to stop podding about with it!

We got 1.9375 points per game at home and 1.9444 away so far this season. All the other top 7 are on over 2 points per home game except United who are at 1.7222. So very poor from us but we could get above 2.1 with wins in the last three home games
starting today.

That's too sensible for Pep (even if I think Otamendi and Kolarov shouldn't be starting).
Pep has to throw a curveball in every game. My guess is Zab in centre mid and Navas at left back. Just because...

You'd rather play Clichy than Kolarov mate?

I used to think I preferred Clichy over Kolorov just because he had a bit of pace and I thought he could get himself out of a bit of trouble.
Proved to myself I know fuck all about the game. I'd prefer Kolorov over Clichy any day!

This season especially. Clichy has dramatically gone down hill. He was never amazing but he could do a job. Now he backs off the attacker until the attacker is in the box. He gets beat every time. He's terrible at going forward and always passes back.

Clichy gets in some great crossing positions yet I can't remember the last time he crossed the ball in to the box. He puts his foot on it, stops and passes it back to the centre midfielder or centre half and all the momentum has gone.

He's a horrible crosser. HORRIBLE. As you said previously, he used to have pace which made him better defensively than Kolarov but now it's a toss up about who's the biggest liability defensively.
