NikkiCFC 8,324 Posted May 18, 2021 Share Posted May 18, 2021 I expect very easy game. But, still, no chance LC beat Spurs but we should do the job. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Either way must win v Villa regardless. Which we are more than capable of. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Whilst I'd rather Burnley do the job tomorrow and we don't have to suffer through at the weekend, I think having to continue playing full throttle with that edge until the very end of the season may benefit us come the final. City's last two games with Newcastle and Brighton are proof that they've relaxed a little and their standards have dropped a bit. That isn't always easy to just flick the switch and bring that edge and momentum back into your game. Tomo 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

OneMoSalah 8,886 Posted May 18, 2021 Share Posted May 18, 2021 (edited) hace 18 minutos, Mana dijo: No, it's not a "must win" if Burnley does the job. We are guaranteed CL football. Granted, that doesn't mean we should throw the game. Id still think just win it, get a convincing performance. Dont want to be losing a game prior to another cup final. Gather momentum and winning breeds confidence. Edited May 18, 2021 by OneMoSalah Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OneMoSalah 8,886 Posted May 18, 2021 Share Posted May 18, 2021 Justo ahora, Mana dijo: I'm not saying for us to throwaway the game, of course it'll be great if we win. A draw doesn't hurt either. But I just don't believe we should go "full throttle" when we have nothing to play for on that day (again IF Burnley beat Pool). Also I'm just throwing it out there, losing a game prior to the final doesn't mean you'll lose the final. Just like winning a game prior to the final doesn't mean you'll win it. Have a look at our last season's FA Cup final. Aye thats true valid points. Suppose we will see tomorrow. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cosmicway 1,333 Posted May 19, 2021 Share Posted May 19, 2021 Klop is through. Leicester will not find it easy against Spurs but if we don't win things become adventurous. We must win this and we can. It's more impotrant than the champions league final against City. It's a strange thing this but it is so. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

nyikolajevics 2,700 Posted May 19, 2021 Share Posted May 19, 2021 Wonder what scenario would be better for us: - Liverpool lose/draw today, so we can get Villa game easy and even rest some important players. - Liverpool win today, so we will have one more competitive game this weekend and our players stay sharp while City has been pretty much on Holiday since PSG game.

Considering our chances are minimal and the potential of going into that match from 5th place, the pressure will be off the charts want to avoid that for sure.

What's the point of being in the CL if we are just going to feck the final? Of course I want to win it but if I was asked if we should risk all the players against Villa or spare them for City I'd choose the former, getting CL is absolutely crucial if we want to build a team that will dominate for years to come. Also I have my doubts we can pull off a 3rd consecutive win against City in a matter of 2 months. Edited May 19, 2021 by R2D2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It is not like games are 3 days away. Almost full week. DDA 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
