  1. The stats don't favour Mendy but he's the best keeper by a mile at the club, in his prime, big reach and if he's worked on his pen saving - his coach was talking about how he has been at it - especially the Aguero one was all about standing still and diving late - I'd still say Mendy for the shootout.
  2. To be fair - English channels are biased towards English clubs. I still remember the commentator saying 'Get in there' when Ivanovic scored the winner against Napoli.
  3. Mendy clearly the man even for the shootout. Bigger reach - calmer head - Aguero the other day for example
  4. Matt Critchley reporting it will be Blue v Blue. God I hope this is true - otherwise its the Palace 3rd kit
  5. After Moscow 08 and the 09 semifinal - every game is cake.
  6. Good news on injuries. Tuchel says N'golo will train on Wednesday, he's hopeful Mendy will train on Wednesday too - "made huge improvement on managing the pain"
  7. https://twitter.com/hazardeden10/status/207194788620017664?s=20
  8. Any word on Mendy ? Hope it was precautionary removing him at HT
  9. Any explanation for Apzi at wing-back lately? Loss of pace and directness down the flank - not sure what TT is playing at here. Reece is perfectly good in that role
  10. The shape itself is a bit pragmatic. It has 5 central players as part of a defensive wall off-the ball and with full backs dropping deep too. I think we will see Tuchel switching to a 4-2-4 type attacking formation. I will be surprised if this isn't the case.
  11. Convinced he will do a decent job until the end of next season and we can manage his gametime by splitting it with Christensen and getting him ready to take over full time when Silva eventually leaves.
  12. Dont expect much from this Burnley game
  13. As unlikable as Leicester have been the last few days, still want Liverpool to be knocked out of top 4
  14. Are Liverpool even bothered? They win their two and they are in top 4
  15. Yep, this. He's going to Manchester
  16. Draw is not enough. Have to go for the goals and the win. CHO and Chilwell at wing back - lost their pace in the cup final with Alonso and Azpi playing here.
  17. i dont know with this Liverpool side tbh
  18. the refereeing in last season's final was shambles and it was Arsenal I even stuck around to watch the presentation and see Leicester celebrate this time
  19. Strangely, I am not too fussed about this final loss. Onto the league game, CL final
  20. Azpi at wingback for so long too. Callum is a good shout to start on Tuesday
  21. Deserve this. Alonso had no business being in a cup final team
  22. We aren't gonna score here. But fucking hell Rudiger we're definitely not gonna score like that
