The majority are now expecting to win and only one of those posts refers to us beating Arsenal. There was also reference to our results/play against the top teams and they felt that it was more about the transition and not the actual player's ability. None mention 3 wins on the spin and the fact that Pep seems to have found a system that works. Since that loss against Leicester Pep has been pragmatic with his formation and with the inclusion of 2 of our best players, and with a resurgent Yaya, I've got a feeling we may just give them something to think about.
Expectations are high with us but fuck me, you'd think a few of them would have concerns about their defensive set-up, including keeper. None have mentioned our forward power and I'm not sure if it's because they have such faith in their pressing style, or they're not wanting to think about it because it will spoil their delusion.
Anyway, they're all cunts! Another one of those 'Its R year, laaaa'.

Stoke should have been home and dry after 30 mins and only a gift from an ex scamfield defender let them back in .
We are more than capable of beating this lot.

I recall Arsenal scoring against Bayern last season after a Neuer fuck up ( yes really ) from one of these set pieces where the defensive line was ridiculously high.
That said, we've conceded just once from a set piece this season I believe, stand to be corrected on that.

Crikey FIBD, if that's correct it's quite astonishing.
It's really strange how perceptions can colour your thinking, as it were. If anyone had mentioned it or asked me, I would have reckoned automatically that we were vulnerable to set pieces.
Mmmmm, most interesting indeed.
