Scousers drop points. We need to stop doing the same. Scousers have all the big sides to play away.
Still got to play Chavs, Cheaty, Villa, Bournemouth, Brentford, Brighton?, Everton all away. They will keep dropping points. We just need to not be fucking shit and we could still be in with a chance.

Linighans there!!

Can't win if you can't score

I'd file that under the "not be shit" category. Still plenty of time to get that Rashford deal over the line...

A very good night for us as it happens. A pity Bournemouth couldn't have held on to beat the Chavs but a draw is still good.

Now let's hope that we can take advantage for once.

Just watched the Shammers v Fulham, ESR was completely anonymous, against a shite W Ham.

Can't say that whenever I've watched Fulham this season I've seen anything to convince me that we should have kept him

And the usual subbed off at 68 minutes.

He scored a couple of goals early on after moving there and everyone lost their minds but he hasn’t kicked a ball since.

With Chelsea, City and Liverpool all dropping points, what would a true title contender do tonight, you know....playing at home against a team who have only won twice at their ground in 32 years and with their entire first choice backline including goalkeeper missing?

Ahhh like the good old days when the late Welbz winner against Leicester put us in the driving seat for the title, then we rocked up to old trafford and lost to Loius Van Gaal's laughing stock united team and followed it up by losing to Swansea reserves at home.

What a time to be alive :barscarf:

Just catching the Brentford - City highlights, both side seemed to want to get the ball in the box as early as they could without passing it backwards and sideways for large parts of the game. They also seemed to have men in the middle of the box only too will to attack the ball and the resulted in...you'll never guess...thats right....actual goals from open play.

By all accounts fast passing and early crossing to aggressive runners results in goals....i wonder if anyone else has caught onto that???
