He played him three in the league against Villa when resting Fabinho

My point exactly. I was being sarcastic. The media were portraying him as a disaster who had lost the dressing room.Frank will do well to reach two cup finals, winning one and finish top 4

How is Lampard deemed to be doing such a wonderful job. Yes they've lost Hazard but they've replaced him with Pulisic Abraham and Mount. He has brought a few young fellas through but they have averaged 2 points per game this year while they achieved 1.9 ppg in Sarri's disastrous reign last season. I've said it on here previously, he has inherited some squad. They genuinely have 2 top players for each position. And Murphy tonight on MOTD is the 1st to mention Jorginio playing in Kante's position while last season Sarri was a moron for doing it.

I'm not British so have no skin in the game but Rico you're an intelligent man. You know how taxation works. You wouldn't be giving the 20 quid a week to "they", you'd be giving it to "we". You see that housing, healthcare and all front line services in your country need investment. So why don't you want to pay £20 a week to help some people who say they need it to improve these things? Is it because you don't want to help or you don't like the people that want to help? Genuinely.

yep

So from their best eleven they are missing GK CB & LB (their worst player). A crisis. Fucking muppets

The thing is, even if he started Johnson, Gerrard, Henderson, Coutinho and Sterling instead of Manquillo, Lucas, Allen, Markovic and Borini, we still would probably have been well beaten. And the bench would have been utter shite. Our current best eleven only cost a Coutinho more than the list above. Isn't it great that we now buy good players. Amazing the difference it makes.

The Bournemouth central midfielders stayed behind the ball and sat just ahead of the back 4 so Utd's pacey front 3 had no space to run into. They are a one trick pony and if the opposition sit deep, they don't have the class to open teams up. They will need penalties or wonder free kicks to score. They were missing Shaw from their 1st eleven today, that's it. Olé is talking about top 4. The lowest top 4 point total in past 3 years is 71 (Spurs last year). To achieve that they will need to get 58 points from the remaining 27 games, averaging 2.2 ppg. They have 10 points from 10 games since the opening day win v Chelsea - 2 wins, 4 draws and 4 losses. Since the week Solskjaer was made permanent in early March, they have 5 wins, 6 draws and 9 losses. That's 21 points from 20 games. They won't make top 4. They're shit, pure shit.

Forget about the lines. How on earth can his armpit be ahead of his left knee. His knee is ahead of his body and it's impossible to get his armpit that far in front of his body.

Could play Milner RB and Larouchi LB if fit.

Caballero James Christensen Rudiger Emerson Loftus-Cheek Kante Barkley Pedro Batshuayi Hudson-Odoi This eleven didn't start today. Neither did world cup winning no.9 Giroud. The "poor Frank couldn't buy any players" agenda is slightly exaggerated

It made us all miss it I think. What are you on about?

If Kopp thought that he would have played him there in the Barca away instead of playing him at 8 and Gini as the 9. He was starting in the big games after Christmas last year so the manager likew what he sees. There is a very good player there, just need to see it more consistently

Just checked wiki. He played not one minute in the 00/01 season and called Ged a wanker on tv a few years ago for indicating that he shouldn't and Robbie/Sami should.

If City turn their form around and return to last seasons form they will finish with 91 points. We would have to get less than 67 points from our next 30 games for them to pass us. I have no interest in jinxing it but that looks positive. If we return to our form prior to our 17 wins in a row we will end up with 96. Even after the disastrous Spurs game in 17/18 we garnered 62 points from 29 games so we would be close to achieving 90 points if we go back to that form. Also I'd be surprised if City return to that kind of form without Laporte.
