They say football is unpredictable, I have predicted every result apart from the City result

Wow, the VAR shows his utter ineptitude again. Two Spurs players wrestle a Chelsea player to the ground at a corner in the penalty area and the foul is given the way of Spurs.

Tyler and Ratboy are speechless

Agree with this hopefully they will all get a kick up the arse after yesterday or am I wrong to say that was it just one of them days when things didn't go right for us . But we must kick on from this and get well ahead of those horrible fucking dippers.


Foden definitely needs a talking to.
Sterling misses chances, that is just him.
Grealish I thought had a good game.

In a game like yesterdays , Grealish was bought to win those games .
Him wearing the number 10 shirt is a piss take .

I disagree, for 100mil player I think Grealish is average at best and offers very little and to state that Sterling

I disagree, for 100mil player I think Grealish is average at best and offers very little, always looking for the short pass rather than taking a player on and to just dismiss Sterling’s misses as “that is just him” is not good enough. He is a senior player and should be an integral part of our team but comes up wanting far too many times when it really matters.

Sterling should have hammered that shot , take the goalie with it into the net . unforgiveable.

I’d go as far as to say he’s the worst player in all divisions for one on ones .

It was actually harder to not score .

The people saying Grealish should be taking players on…that’s not the Pep way. You think Grealish just stopped doing that because he thought it was fun? I know it’s impossible to blame our saviour, but taking players on isn’t Pep’s way and Grealish has been asked to change the way he plays. That’s not the players fault.

So what was he brought in for? I don’t really see what he does. He doesn’t seem to have any real pace, very rarely takes the ball to the byline to cross it. He just seems to play it back to where it came from. All I’m saying is that by now I want to see him create more when he gets the ball.

He’s literally created the second most key chances per 90 minutes in the Prem mate. Second behind Kev (who is only 0.1 ahead of him).

I hear what you’re saying, but he’s been told to play a certain way and that’s what he’s doing.

I know margins are fine at the top level, however if you are in receipt of mega money you have to take the flak if you fuck up like Sterling did yesterday

We’re not a million miles apart here Mase. When I say I want him to create more I don’t just mean setting people up. Kev does that but also creates far more chances for himself too. Grealish has got that in his locker definitely and that is what I would like to see more of.

Ah okay, I get you. We’re probably on the same page then to be fair.

They probably showed you total big chances created. Why would they show you something that bigs Grealish up, when they can run stories about how crap he is?

Geees we've had a blip, we'll bounce back.

Foden will sort himself out eventually
Grealish will come good
Sterling will be fine as long as he doesn't end up in 1v1 sitiation
Mahrez back in the fold
KDB getting better just at the right time
Ed best goalkeeper in the league
Defensively we're still solid

Someone needs to put a positive spin on a doom and gloom weekend

We'll beat Brentford 5-0

We just need Kolarov back to sort out the LB position and I think we’ll win the league by 20 points.

I don't believe it has been a doom and gloom weekend? Said in the match thread that we stole a point - very much a point won and a point nearer the title. We rarely lose and so don't let the media fool you into believing the scouse twats will catch us as there is fuck all chance of that. We will win the league by double figures points difference. Agree re Brentford, they could get a proper spanking. Chumps league also to start again and so our focus will come back

Nothing wrong with cock teasing vermins into believing they'll catch us. They're having a premature ejaculation.
