Panache. Energy. Attitude. Know-how. Yer ma. Bravery. Liveliness. Intensity. Nerve. Dexterity. Expertise. Ruthlessness. Skill.

 

I don't ask for much.

 

Pep Lijnders said yesterday that intensity is our identity. We've looked less sharp and intense at times in recent weeks but our mentality has seen us getting the points. Need more of the same, allied to being solid and concentrated at the back as well as creative, mobile and clinical in attack. It's a chance to hit double figures for wins after only 11 games, and take us past the 30-point marker. We need to be of the mentality that we want to be the first to get past each 10-point marker, and if we can keep doing that, then we will see if we can match or better last season.

 

We got a great result at Villa the last time we were there. More of the same on Saturday please.

This is a classic trap game. A week before Man City, everyone's looking forward to that game. Away from home. 

 

I think they have a decent midfield. Nakamba, McGinn and Grealish is a nice trio. Mings is alright. But after that, the rest of the team stinks and I don't think they're especially well-managed like Sheffield and Norwich are.

For some reason, I was of the mind that Grealish is injured. Is that right?

 

Also, Klopp will play Fab and trust him not to get a yellow. I wouldn't risk it because we're guaranteed to get a cunt of a ref who books him for nothing, but I genuinely think they will both risk it.

Only a bruise due to a kick, manager has said he is very optimistic of him playing.

Need to aid fixture congestion? Just make Saturday's game count for the EFL Cup too!

 

Have a penalty shoot out at the end.

Difficult one with Fab. We look so much better with him in the team, but if Grealish plays then I can see Fab picking up a yellow. I'm sure Gini could do a job on Grealish.
