7.30 KO tonight so may well be a few late after work. Nothing less than 3 points will do tonight. It really is that simple
Dread to think what the bench will be. And that is after seeing an Ake and Khus centre half pairing!
Foden and Haaland need to pull their weight as well. Both have been worse than dogshit last couple of games
Not confident at all. Can see a very nervy game
1-1 Doku saves a point

Don't see us winning tonight unless we are coming out guns blazing.

Is this secretly a Carabao Cup game?
One of the poorest teams in recent memory. And the bench? Holy shit

We need some fucking oomph, tackles and moving the ball quickly, if it’s the same tippy tappy side to side, then we’re fucked.
