2-2 again.
Only around 12/1 in the bookies though.

His speed would be a good asset to help whichever fullback he ends up next to dealing with either Silva or Sane as well
One of Sissoko's only other decent performances for us was against City in Pep's first season so he might get the start. We will need athleticism in this game, it was striking how much fitter they were than us last season. We couldn't really get close to them.
Sissoko is better away from home where the onus is not on us.
We need 2 defensive midfielders, plus Winks and then 2 plus Kane up top.
1-4-2-Winks-2+Kane.
I wouldn't mind a very defensive setup and performance, try to nick it on the break. City will smash us atm if we play the open game.
I wouldn't start Winks, prefer Sissoko much stronger, better performances and direct. In fact Sergio and Sissoko on the right would shut that channel. No idea where Wanyama is. Son out of form on the bench. Too early for Dele but sub to come on later. Lloris to start reluctantly.
Reaction is needed.
"Captain"
Serge Tobby Sanchez Davies
Sissoko Dembele Dier Eriksen
Kane Lucas
Poch is loyal and would start Son, Sissoko on the bench. It shouldn't matter as mancity too strong unless off day.
2-2 last minute Kane pen equaliser (or winner)

Or someone that tries to take enjoyment from the wonderful game that is football, rather than use it to wallow in misery. It is supposed to be a bit of fun after all.
That was his debut for us and he was really good that day. One of our best team performances under Pochettino that. Didn't let them breathe for a second. Do that on Monday and we can cause them problems - I haven't seen a performance like that from us in a long long time though.
Don't be a cunt
I fucking hope this is true, amazing news if so! Will wait for the club to announce it before getting too excited though....
Our club has decisively conveyed to the footballing wod its complete absence of ambition. We are a laughing stock. There can be no doubt. There is no way back for us. We chose to break the trajectory, and our support is complicit with its limp reaction...but why?

Does being an optimist make the team win more games ?
Poch " Manchester city is on another level"
Aaannnd........?
Well it wasn’t an entirely serious reply, so no, obviously not, but predicting losses every week doesn’t either.
I believe that keeping a positive outlook on life is a healthier and more admirable state of mind than wallowing in despair and self-pity. This is an opinion - not an instruction. You have to do your own thing.
