Strong lineup from City. Good news for us

CHO and Pulisic to battle it out I suppose

Or the myth that Kante was ever a 'holding midfielder'.

How are Barella and Pulisic's end product anyway? Higuain Pulisic--------------Pepe Barella---Kante Jorginho

How much would he be? We'll probably be still committed to Barella though.

Depends where the funds are going. Pepe and Isco + a striker should be utilised from Hazard's funds alone.

More like trying to save face if anything.

Zero. Zero excuses not to match their intensity Sunday. 7 Days off. Whilst they have a midweek game. Zero. We approach the game the same as Spurs and Arsenal away, flog all of them. Inexcusable and unforgivable.

David Luiz easily

So this is pretty much a done deal then? If he wanted to move in the summer vs January? Or he is smart enough to wait and see if we finish Top4 ?

If we use the funds to bring in Pepe and Isco, things won't look so gloomy. Maybe even add a striker on top of it.

Maybe to actual Londoners that live in the area. I couldn't give a fuck who wins the league if it guarantees us top 4. I can't stress how important it is for us to finish top 4, especially this season with all the rumors lurking about a transfer ban.

The notion of throwing away points for the sake of Liverpool not winning the league. How does Liverpool winning the league affect you more so than us not being in the top 4 for a straight consecutive season?

Honestly can't believe what I'm reading.

And then the gap was 3

Remember when Liverpool fans thought Keita would be a better version of Kante?

How at all could you be conflicted?

Both of them should be realistic targets, especially Aaron Bissa. We've had a good relationship with Palace the past few seasons.

If Sarabia and Pepe have end product, we will improve 10 fold even in the 4-3-3 Kovacic/Barkley +Willian/Pedro give us nothing.

He can play LCM if needed?

I'd rather Pepe

Are we even linked?

They played us off the park because Conte was a coward. In fact, that was the most cowardly display I have ever seen from a team, let alone Chelsea. We came to the game expecting a defeat, it was a matter of how many goals not to concede. We were the champions of fucking England and having that mindset was inexcusable. We do exactly what we did the first game. Stay organised and block the channels. Play out from the back and hit the space they will inevitably leave. They have a midweek game before our game on Sunday. Not matching their intensity, will be unforgivable at this point. I can take losing, but losing when the players don't give 100% I cannot.

So then why get all defensive when I disagreed that he isn't top class? The only issue I have with Sarri is his game management. Other than that, we need to be patient with him. Given what the club did to sign him, I can only assume they understand they cannot operate the way we have these past years. The market inflation won't allow us to do so. Stability will save this club. Now more than ever.

Liverpool. Spurs away (in the cup). Arsenal (at home) and even against City at home. We thrived given the space they gave us. Our attack failed to put away chances. Especially with City playing midweek, we should definitely play to our strengths on this one. Not matching City's intensity come Sunday, will be unforgivable in the highest measure.
