  1. Oh well. No injuries. Unbeaten run continues. No issues from me. Onto the next one
  2. It's nice to be able to watch a Chelsea game chilled
  3. Wouldn't play any of them if we can get away with it. Especially any of our attack. Rest them all. Even havertz as he is a backup option for the wing. Pulisic giroud Werner Is a great front 3 but if pulli or Werner go down we have issues. Tbh I'd consider playing reece james at right wing if pulisic was to get injured. I reckon reece could play anywhere
  4. Mount was my motm kid bleeds for the badge. He was everywhere each minute. Reece was fantastic. Ngolo also. Zouma did well after the first goal although I think mendy made the wrong decision there but he can't be perfect. Overall this is a tough team and we dominated. Job done. Hope ziyech and Co isn't too bad of an injury. They can all have a rest vs krasnodar and they go again next week
  5. What has his miss got to do with him playing wide. He was an inch away from the line [emoji23] Werner played out wide for leipzig more than he played central. Him missing chances has nothing to do with position
  6. We're all over them gotta take these chances.
  7. United are just running hot. They win but play shit. We need to keep playing well and winning. That will catch up to them
  8. The slightly awkward part is the way Leeds play I think Werner at striker would be the better option as they do leave big gaps with their super high intensity attacking system. But, that being said if you play that well and score 4 goals and don't get picked to start the next game then what more could he do. So giroud has to start and then that gives Frank a lot of decisions to make for wide left with pulisic back. Usual 5 Kante Havertz mount Ziyech giroud Werner Pulisic off the bench after 60 (maybe). Good problems to have though
  9. For me this team just feels like a squad which has bought in and is going for it. Like tammy came down and was super happy for oli even though it will definitely hurt his minutes in the short term. A together team is even harder to beat. Leeds will be a tough game but I don't see any reason we can't get at them defensively.
  10. Just gotta keep the run going. Keep being hard to beat and we'll go far even if we get the occasional united/spurs game in there. And happy birthday
  11. Didn't you also say that both teams to score was a banker today with this defence... [emoji23]
  12. Same which is why I wasn't buying this narrative of were gonna be a shit defence with this backline many where saying. A good keeper breeds confidence in the team. And this team is very confident
  13. Very happy we didn't get the extra penalty. That would have been a ridiculous decision
  14. Been quite impressed with Emerson and the back line today. Remarkable how much better they all look with mendy behind them
  15. You can't say treat it like an fa cup game then say its our 4 best attackers. Our defence is noticeably worse. But as I've said all along you can't compare a back 4 in front of kepa to a back 4 in front of mendy. I think the back 4 is sufficient enough to get what we need vs a decent sevilla team
  16. Very happy with the team. Most have something to prove. So an opportunity for them to show it whilst we rest some of our key players. I like it. Besides pulisic giroud havertz CHO isn't a weak front 3
  17. I agree. I want us to keep this train rolling of not losing but I'm fine with a draw and happy risking it a bit more with rotation to keep players fresh for Leeds who will be a challenge with their energy. I fear one team which is bayern. Anyone else I can get behind the thought of us winning but bayern are just a different animal in recent years. Plus given the fact that it looks like United, pool and city will all top their groups that is 3 teams we can't get if we come second which gives us: 25 percent chance bayern. 25 percent chance dortmund (assuming they stay top) 25 percent chance barca 25 percent (probably real if they win their last game at home which they should) So we'd be favourites vs 1/4 of the teams there (even though I'd rate our chances of beating barca and real Madrid). Now should we top the group it opens us up to a lot more possibilites: Atletico Madrid Inter (probably) Porto Atalanta Lazio Juve Psg No lay ups there either but no one I'd fear. So in conclusion Win the group. Draw Porto. Win. Sorted.
