It's matchday folks! And I feel like I'm going to be saying this a lot for the remainder of the season....but it absolutely IS a 'must win', because even though Brentford have a great home record, they held City to a 2-2 draw on Tuesday night, I suspect Liverpool might win this one. They've drawn [...]
Is it me, or does it feel like we’ve played tough game after tough game this season? I get it - “you have to play everyone twice” as well as “everyone plays each other twice”, but still, it’s really felt like this is week after week in which we’ve had some super tough fixtures. And [...]
Well now, that was much better than the Ipswich game, eh? In fairness, there is of course a lot to do with game state with all matches and the one on 27th at home was against a team absolutely battered in their previous match and therefore naturally not wanting to create a spiral of doom [...]
Howdy peeps, from an overcast Johannesburg, in which me n the Management are spending our Christmas with friends. The time zone is a couple of hours ahead of the UK which meant I was able to time the watching of the game with an early dinner, meaning no disruption to the most important activity of [...]
A home match day again see's us up against 15th-placed Everton and an opportunity to at least keep pace with runaway leaders Liverpool, who will absolutely beat Fulham today on their own turf, if last weekend's game is anything to go by. Let's face it, we did everything to win that game and it was [...]
Happy Champions League match day folks! I'm super excited for this one. Do you know why? Because I'm going tonight AND I used to play in defence for my Uni team, so I might get a place on the bench!! After all, with the amount of defenders we seemingly have on the treatment table right [...]
Yesterday I did a bit of a look at West Ham, but with Arteta and Lopetegui having their press conferences yesterday, we have a little more detail and I think I'll obviously focus a little more on us today. But before that, the West Ham team news, which Lopetegui talked about alongside handing our a [...]
Couldn't sleep in the early hours of the morning, so decided to get my arse out of bed and do a bit of pre game reading, see what's out there and whatnot. First things first on days like today I usually go to the traditional 'pundits previews'. You know, your Merse's, Sutton's, Jones Knows on [...]
Yesterday's City defeat has cast today's game in a slightly different light I think. I still believe that if Arsenal lose, we're probably out of the title race, but a draw puts us one point closer to them and although Liverpool will be nine points clear of us, that isn't unsurmountable. Liverpool won against Villa [...]
Big game today. VERY big game. Made even bigger, even tougher, by the fact we have a number of question marks over players. We know Odegaard and Saliba are 100% out, we can be pretty sure about Calafiori, but what about Saka? Timber? There are so many questions that we all want answered and all [...]
