I thought those days ended when AC left. It is weakening. Sterling seems to be allergic to playing football. I wouldn't be surprised if we went back to a back four with James out.

exiledblue Posted March 10, 2023 Share Posted March 10, 2023 Starts tomorrow, anything but a convincing win means the last 2 games were merely a blip. Win tomorrow and we can dream of a european position of some kind 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Also if he has a run of a few decent games, the club might even get a few extra coins for him in the summer. Madueke got 8 years to prove his worth.

There is a bigger picture though. It’s worth noting that the last time we won the league we had no European football to weigh us down. Im not saying we stand a chance of winning the league next season but we stand a better chance of competing without Thursday night football in some dark and distant land. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

One game a week in the mid term gets us top 4, maybe more. Win the ECL and it's the most meh thing ever. It's way below us. No kudos, just "Thursday" jokes.

exiledblue Posted March 11, 2023 Share Posted March 11, 2023 Problem is that to avoid Europe and finish best runner up to Europe would mean we would have to lose the majority of our remaining matches, something I am sick of doing 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
exiledblue Posted March 11, 2023 Share Posted March 11, 2023 MOTD without presenters. Actually I am quite looking forward to that. I think it may be a format I prefer as I wont have to get angry with them when their bias shows through, they fail to look at our VAR reviews not done etc. Cant stand Lineker anyway. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
My Blood Is Blue Posted March 11, 2023 Share Posted March 11, 2023 Personally I’d go all out for a Europa spot. I know it’s not the Champions League, but you still get some great European nights, it gets our young players and manager (if he’s still here) more experience in European competition and it helps to generate revenue. Europa Conference or whatever it is, I completely agree with wanting to avoid, it’s a joke of a tournament and if we did end up in it, I would hope the majority of first team players would be rested for those matches. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sleeping Dave Posted March 11, 2023 Share Posted March 11, 2023 I suppose James and Sterling are out so… Woukd want to play Badiashile ahead of Cucurella but harsh after his last performance. But with James out I’m drafting in RLC at RWB which requires more defensive solidity. So Badiashile gets the nod from me. Kepa Fofana Koulibaly Badiashile RLC Enzo Kovacic Chilwell Felix Mudryk Havertz An alternative is 433; Kepa Fofana Koulibaly Badiashile Chilwell Enzo Kovacic Mount Felix Havertz Mudryk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Apparently Lineker is off to watch the game today so we will be pulled into the circus anyway. FFS. I'm all for free speech and all that but I take enormous exception to FA Cup Ears comparing it to 1930's Germany. He clearly has zero knowledge of modern history.
