vs Spurs - Sunday 31st Aug 13:30 ko

[RedZeppelin III]

sterling looks bit like sturridge last yr when he missed the peno for his hattrick , trying bit too hard to make up for it now .

 

[Fabio]

Can't believe Mignolet caught that ball then. He should have volleyed it and scored

 

[Shadey]

You've been saving that one up since the start of the season haven't you?

I did it in the citeh game but got woooooshed

 

[refugee]

And we still have to unleash the Lallana.

He might struggle to break into the team. Unless he fancies a go at centre back

 

[ILD]

Loved Can's powerhouse run through the middle for Sterling's chance. #Batman

 

[Oncy]

Moreno has to get my Motm not only has he been fucking brilliant at the back

BUT DAT GOAL!!

 

[Judge Jules]

How long is there to go?

 

[Markeh]

look at us getting all tippy tappy

 

[Fox]

Please clean sheet. [emoji122]

 

[Markeh]

I would hate to have Townsend in our team

 

[ILD]

Moreno's goal was one of those 'OH FUCK, ring your friends and celebrate down the phone' type goals. cf Torres debut goal against Chelsea.

 

[DHSC]

Was Townsend called up for the latest England squad?

 

[Shadey]

How long is there to go?

35 games.

 

[Oncy]

Credit where its due, second half our defending has been pretty dogged.
Our 3 midfielders have done very well covering the gaps and filling in. Respect to all.

 

[doctor_mac]

Was Townsend called up for the latest England squad?

Yup.

 

[FoxForceFive]

Please clean sheet. [emoji122]

 

[ClassicGirl14]

I'm at my mom's for the holiday weekend, and she's convinced Pochettino looks like Gopher from The Love Boat.

 

[Oncy]

Yup.

Just got the call ahead of Tom Cleverley and myself.

 

[Judge Jules]

Yup.

In fairness it was picked by a drooling halfwit from a pretty poor pool of players.

 

[DHSC]

Rodgers doesn't like putting on the 3rd sub, does he

 

[Markeh]

Was Townsend called up for the latest England squad?

indeed he is... 😱

Yep, was just about to say how well we've pressed, despite our form last season we often stood off too much & didn't press that high, looks like we're trying to press slightly higher yet keep the quick breaking counter attack.

If we successfully combine the two skills we could be phenomenonal.

 

[Shadey]

This is an awesome come back from the citeh display

Yeah. I think Spurs have looked tired in the 2nd half (like us last year). They worked so hard chasing down our passes (and we did really well to move them about) that I think they are worn out. This performance is as good as some of our best victories from last season.

 

[Farkmaster]

Markovic and Manquillo have been really conservative in their play.

 

[Fox]

Danny deserves a goal. Brilliant today

 

[FoxForceFive]

I can't believe there's a two week international break now.

Fucking ridiculous.

 

[Fabio]

Emre looking decent today. More up to speed

 

[Fox]

I can't believe there's a two week international break now.

Fucking ridiculous.

Bet Stevie Is gutted [emoji1]

That's fair enough IMO. Putting them all on leaves you no options if an unexpected need arises.
