  1. If we end up with 11/15 from the Ev, Villa, city away, and wolves & Newcastle at home, without losing to any of them, in the space of 15 days or whatever it is, then that's one heck of an achievement supposedly during our 'mini slump'
  2. Our fitness has been outstanding. Couple of seasons ago our players seemed to bulk up, but no one looks to be carrying any excess bulk. They look lean and strong. Even Ali in nets looks a few kgs less bulky. It's definitely a directive from the new coaching team
  3. All good managers start out wanting to win playing the best footballers with a style and an ethos. Then it gets to business time and they all look to the lads who will battle for them no matter what... Get in endo lad
  4. Still more points (64) than united + Everton (61)
  5. That's as comfortable as away to city has been for a long long time
  6. Honestly I've barely raised a pulse. This has been very steady by us
  7. When you look at ali's physique it seems the rule across the board is leaner.. Trent is deffo less bulky and the days of beefing up seem to be over
  8. Been of the view for weeks now that 86 points wins it. One more defeat for arsenal and that's the most they can get. So that's 25 points from a possible 36 for us. Cmon lads.. Bring it home
  9. I'm claiming that one. Sat on the same spot from learning the score and didn't watch a second... You can all thank me later
  10. I'm doing my bit.. Have not moved, logged in or changed a thing If this one slips it's on you
  11. When I find myself in times of trouble I see united on tv Watching slow Maguire Is a treat And in my time of darkness, listen To amorim on 4-3-3 Saying they're the worst There's ever been Let it be, let it be Let it be, let it be Let this last forever Let it be
  12. It's a bold move cotton
  13. Not sure about this at all. Klopp tried with him but then pretty much sidelined him. There was a brief flurry when he was unplayable in the autumn of his second season, but apart from that he's not been trusted by either of them. This one ain't on Slot. It's on the recruitment of him in the first place. But recruitment will never be perfect. Just a shame that two big purchases, keita and Nunez, have underwhelmed, but to have only two that have seriously underwhelmed is a pretty high strike rate in the favour of our recruitment overall compared to most
  14. The guy just cannot be trusted to do what is right in situations that either experience or technique should have engrained within him the right thing to do. Any professional training day in day out should be able to score the open goal. Any forward training day in day out should have drawn the foul from Martinez so that he's red carded either chipping the ball over him or cutting inside and taking the clattering. The really gifted player would have squared to Salah, but at that speed to have the presence of mind to see and execute that would not have been the norm. The norm should have seen Martinez sent off. He may, from time to time, do something mercurial, but not frequently enough to be of consistent benefit. His most consistent attribute is helping to defend corners. His inconsistent ceiling is not high enough to accommodate his consistent floor. I'll be amazed if he's here next season. I'll also be amazed if Slot doesn't try and (over) rely on working with 4 forwards for 99% of the competitive minutes left in this season. All coaches, including klopp, grow more conservative and narrow the circle of trust as the season goes on. Elliott seems to have never been in it. Nunez will be out of it. Endo will play more minutes than both imo unless there are injuries
  15. He could easily have brought on chiesa or Elliott along with Diaz and reshaped the forward line that way. We really need Gakpo back
  16. Dalglish laid those on a plate to Rush for years. Rush did the decent thing and put it in the net. Kenny was the creator supreme and Rushie the deadly striker. Dom took the keeper completely out of the game and increased the likelihood of a goal from 60% to 99%. Darwin should have scored. The end.
  17. Still convinced that 86 pts wins this. We need 25 and 21 of those are available at home, including 3 against arsenal.
  18. I just want him gone now. It's not worked out. It ain't doing him any good and it's deffo not doing us any good
  19. What's worse. Arsenal playing without strikers or us playing with Nunez in this form
  20. We need to stop operation anfield exercise. The lads are playing every 3 days and have to do some training in between. Adding more work to the load is too much. Someone needs to have a word with George
  21. 60 points after 25 games (spurs win would mean still more points than Ev + MU)
  22. We look a tad shattered... Changes for villa perhaps Deffo think trent / Bradley continue to swap irrespective of who starts. Quansah might start. Tsimikas to start. Jones to come in, maybe for Mac? Think he starts the same first 3. Nunez not doing enough when he comes on to earn a place
