A draw would be a horrific result.A draw wouldn't be the end of the world. Southampton are a decent side and have one of the leagues in form strikers. A draw is still a point gained on Leicester and Chelsea
Correct on all counts.I'd put Fred in for Matic...give the guy a full game rest.
Other than that keep it the same.,,I predict a 7-0 win tomorrow
Would sum up the Top 4 race.Imagine the state of this place of we don't win after the Leicester result today
Love the optimismI'd put Fred in for Matic...give the guy a full game rest.

There'll be many people losing their shit and trashing the team, even though we still have CL qualification in our own hands. That being said I will be questioning our collective mental toughness as this horseshit of finding ways to blow games that would take us into the CL spots needs to end. We're looking much better in every possible way since we returned, but we need to throw this monkey off our backs.Imagine the state of this place of we don't win after the Leicester result today
I'm not sure if you've watched Southampton over the last couple of weeks but if we're not at it, we'll get a kick up the arse.We should really be putting these in a spliff & smoking them. Put them to bed by half time & give our top players some rest.
Every team we've played since the restart has tried pressing us high up the pitch, especially early on in games. Just look what happens every time we have a goal kick.Had a quick look at the Saints forum and they seem pretty confident. They reckon if they avoid giving away a penalty they can walk away with 3 points, and we are not used to teams who press us high up the pitch and they can cause us problems.
I dont fecking like it when the opposition is confident. Makes me nervous
but we watched United. We will steamroll them by 4 or 5 goals tomorrowI'm not sure if you've watched Southampton over the last couple of weeks but if we're not at it, we'll get a kick up the arse.
We're been great. Let's hope we don't start believing the hype.but we watched United. We will steamroll them by 4 or 5 goals tomorrow
Not a disaster, but so deflating.After the results this weekend, that banana skin is starting to look awfully slippery.
Just need to keep doing what we've been doing.
At least, even if we don't win, it won't be a complete disaster.
And Leicester lost all of that form in about 45 minutes.Given they're dropping points today, which isn't too obvious. I wouldn't count on Bornemouth here, they are abysmal and Leicester seem to regain some form.
We are not used to play City? Sheffield United? Interesting... we will have to be proactive then, since some have a short memory of who we are as a team!Had a quick look at the Saints forum and they seem pretty confident.

Ole: What's error?One thing is for sure, since the restart, we've been a flat track bully against these teams.
Expecting more of the same. No errors, Ole! No errors!
You go into those games with a different mindset though, because you know they're better (in City's case at least). Its quite easy to be surprised and unsettled by teams that are weaker and press relentlessly.We are not used to play City? Sheffield United?

I've never been convinced by Fred as a DM. He's too tiny and weak to protect the ball properly. Fred and Pogba in midfield together seems like a bad idea. If Ole does rest Matic, I prefer he start McTominay, who's far from perfect but still less likely to get bullied off of the ball.I'd put Fred in for Matic...give the guy a full game rest.
