There is seriously something going on behind the scenes at City. CL this am playing a small club like Feyeenord (probably wrong spelling) but they absolutely blew a 3-0 lead for them to equalise 3-3 haha.

There’s a reason why Rodri won the Ballon Dor.

This is hilarious


Everything about that was wonderful. Poor Micah fighting for his life. Jamie and Thierry just feeding it.

Massive game overnight for Liverpool against city. Need to maintain that points buffer, a win would be a big step.

Arsenal are really clicking into gear now, I fancy them to give it a real good shake this year. Just hope Liverpool have built up enough of a gap to withstand the inevitable comeback from arsenal / city

I have a mate who was at the Arsenal game with his 21 year old son. Both big Gunners fans. Texted me photos of the crowd, looked brilliant. I reckon they had a great time. Crazy game.

Bucket list stuff that! Can’t wait to get over to Anfield for a game one day, very high on my list of things to do

Wow, Branthwaite didn’t do his Old Trafford audition any good this morning ahead of a potential move. He had a shocker. Great to see Zirkzee get a double, he’s had a rough start to his Man United career, but he delivered this morning.

Mazraoui is signing of the season so far.

Only real negatives were Mainoo and Martinez getting their fifth yellow cards of the season ruling them out of the Arsenal game. I’d imagine Shaw will come into that LCB role and Ugarte was going to be rotated back into that midfield anyway.

Back into the top half of the table now, progress is progress I guess. 😂😂😂

Oh yeah, Amorim will be great for you guys. He’s top quality not just tactically but he also has the charisma you need at a top club. Ten Hag didn’t have either. I’m sure that Utd will be back challenging under him, which is good for the league. I would happily see City relegated and Arsenal, Liverpool, Utd battling it out every year.

Chelsea are progressing nicely as well but I don’t respect them as a club.

PL is starting to get exciting again

Australian referee Jarrod Gillett’s been handed the Arsenal v Man United fixture. Its great to see him start to get more and more of the bigger fixtures.

My Baggies are away to Bournemouth.

Our cautious manager will put out our second stringers and we’ll exit with little more than a whimper.

We are playing the NL derby a few days after, Spurs got Tamworth who aren't even an EFL level side, they can afford to rest their stars & give academy players debuts we won't be able to unless Arteta does it eitherway haha.

You’re going to have to beat the best sides to win the cup anyway. Liverpool have had their share of difficult FA cup draws over previous seasons

Oh yeah I know that, every team gets their share of tough games in the FA cup, probably good to get a tough team/s out of the way early anyway.
