Also Kavanaugh had some laughers at the end there. Dude was holding Jesus' leg and a foul wasn't given

His off the ball work left arteta pissed at Villa

Lost Matty Cash in their goal. And let's be real, we aren't a team that just switches off at the back post

Also saw a stat that he's played more minutes this year (so far) than any other season. Think they are just managing him.

Imagine he might play some vs Pool and start vs Portsmouth

Ironically, this would have been a perfect game for him, Palace were a big transitions team, probably would have suited him well.

This team desperately needs Kai back to lead the press and win Aerial duels win we need to play over a press.

This is not a hate on Vik either, Jesus just isn't the same guy movement/athletically anymore. If you can have a rotation of Vik/Kai and throw Jesus in there on occasion, or on the wing, I think we're that much better.

I'm sure he'll feature sometime in the 8 other games we have this month, and I'm very much looking forward to it. I'm thinking for sure Portsmouth to get some minutes in him and probably a start against Kairat at the end of the month.

Then (god willing) you've got a mostly healthy team for the run in

We still have a lot of games coming. Haven’t even played an FA cup match yet. Not done with group stages of champions league and guaranteed 2 games against Chelsea plus the league games.

Eze and the others will play at some point.


Kepa has already started more than Neto did all of last season.

Chels pulled off the miracle. Drew in stoppage time.

6 pts up on City & Villa

Won't hear shite about city bottling tho.

I think it is this simple, get a result at City and we win the league this year.

Just keep playing hard baws. We are almost there

Just keep picking up 3 pts and nothing else matters

Fully prepared for City to spend another 200M+ this January. Especially with Gvardial going down with a thought to be serious injury.

Not going to be an easy run in.

Tough shite for City. Pep was talking all this shite about how he only needed a small squad this year 18 to 20. Tough shite now that half your team is hurt. Don't want to hear complaints because we got HAMMERED by the media last year for finishing in 2nd despite having the worst injury luck I've ever seen at the club

Nice to have a little breathing room but a lot of football to play.

Exactly. I won't get excited until we head into the last match day up by 4 pts over whomever is in 2nd place.

Ruben Dias out 6 weeks
Josko Gvardiol out possibly through the end of the season.


That is massive. Need City to keep dropping points before Dias comes back. Their run in the last 23months of the season is easy as frick with the exception of us at home and Chelsea away.

Their last 10 games of the season feel like 8 wins out of 10.

Need to be at least 8 or 9 points clear by March

I don't want to get ahead of myself, but looking at City's fit defenders, we have to win the league. It's actually a joke. If that was our squad no way id believe we could win the league.



It's Ake and Kushonov as far as cbs go. Ake was trying to leave since he's barley played for 18 months now.

Looking at the minutes, we actually haven't worked our players any more than city or Liverpool or Bayern. We haven't had a single player play in every game.


And Eze is 11th on total minutes, ahead of Odegaard and Trossard.
