We missed another one.

Leicester have got real potential in that team and I think Rodgers can get a real tune out of them.

Vardy still got it, Maddison is getting better all the time, I really rate Demarai Gray and Ricardo and Chilwell are really top players.

Oh dear.

Man City paid £200 000 to Sanchos agent when he was 14 years old. FA investigating. 

The irony. All these investigations by FIFA and the FA, two of the dodgiest sporting organisations out there.

Atm Tielemans also look a good addition , only needs to build some power

Fuckin this totally cracks me up.

Just shows the difference in expectations of us and the likes of the 2 north London clubs.

Can you imagine the meltdown on here - and the media , if Sarri or any other of our managers had come out with the same shit Poch has about them not being able to be contenders to win the league for 5-10 years!!! Roman would be throwing fits! He would have the manager out by the next day!!

It shows our different attitudes.

We have a winning mentality. Even if the players forget it now and then. We have these hissy fits because we are not living up to the standards we have set ourselves.

Spuds and gooners dont have that problem. They don't put that pressure on themselves.

Joe Cole is dead right when he said this How would you want to play for a manager that says this?

 

'If my manager says we're five, 10 years away from winning a trophy, I'm on the phone to my agent': Joe Cole says Tottenham stars will be shocked by Mauricio Pochettino's title claims

Dirty Leeds 2-0 up.

We'll have some tasty fixtures with them again next season at this rate...

Won't have to worry about Bamford though he is out of his depth in the PL.

great, can just imagine us needing to win that one in order to secure top 4 knowing our luck. just the idea of Leicester doing the double over us this season makes me sick, even more now that Rodgers is in charge

i dont know mate, Rodgers might set them up to beat us because of what we did to him and Pool in 13/14, but i hope you are right.

its still all in our hands and if we do our job properly and secure top 4 early then that last game can be meaningless, but as you know we always make things difficult for ourselves mate. Its the kind of losses to Bournemouth, Leicester, Wolves, and those stupid draws, etc that make me livid, we shouldn't be in this position to begin with, lets see if we have really turned a corner with this win over Spurs. Cheers

I did feel a good atmosphere from our lot v Spuds. I know we dont want him - or most of us dont, but I didn't like the Alonso boos cause I think it puts all the players in the wrong mood. But the fans were all happy so it looks like they have turned a corner too.

Now we just need to fight and attack every game like its a cup final.
