  1. This is totally normal behaviour sne it's the fish which upsets the pitchfork waving locals
  2. yeah good to see Ramsey and Moreno back. Nice for Zaniolo to get the goal he needed and so obviously wanted.
  3. 1 - 24 - Liverpool 2 - 20 - Man City 3 - 19 - Man Utd 4= 15 - Man City 4= 15 - Aston Villa 6= 14 - Newcastle 6= 14 - Tottenham Not just me then
  4. I'd like to see what Finney on the wing could do myself
  5. I got all excited for the Newcastle and Liverpool games. So I'll temper it a little bit for these next two. I think they're all the obvious competition for the top 4 so it would be nice to think we can mix it with the very top sides by taking at least a point from one of them. I think we can beat them both but I'm not sure we will. As others have said no Rodri and no Grealish, No DeBruyne it doesn't tip the scales in our favour but you'd rather it than not. I'll find somewhere with the match on later but I'm mentally prepared to lose the next two and still remain happy/upbeat about it all. Anything more is a real bonus. My Uncle took me to my first match at Maine Road so I've always had an affinity for City and it's my most watched fixture over the years. I always remember the banner wishing us luck that wound up my uncle the year we were pushing Manyoo for the title. They weren't always oil rich etc etc But I think the pressure is off us in the next two games. No one expects us to win either of them. Except Unai perhaps.
  6. Nothing mutually exclusive about it being true that there's a player in there who could yet still show us what a decent player he is while at the same time it's true that he's been underwhelming and that his performance in the first half against Bournemouth was dreadful.
  7. Duran hit the post, and Digne's marginal offside to disallow Carlos's redemption goal after the wayward pass that started the trouble suggest we weren't that far off taking all 3 points but in reality a great header from Watkins salvages a point. We really have to stop gifting chances with wayward passing around at the back. Not as bad as the one against Warsaw the other night but the same result. And this one arguably cost us the win. Ref was inconsistant. I didn't see the first yellow for either of them but Semenyo really should have walked before half time and Kluivert was lucky not to pick up a second yellow too I thought. Martinez made some great saves to keep us in it.
  8. No point rushing Ramsey or Moreno back so it will be interesting to see how any rotation pans out over the next 10 days as to whether they are back in full contention. No point resting the big names for the big games if we don't win the others. Not much bigger in the last few dacades than a game between the top two in the group to see who finishes top of the European group.
  9. Massive game, a win would be great especially with Man U playing Newcastle and Man City playing Spurs in the same gameweek. Would set up quite the week. Not a place with many happy memories though. A Rudy Gestede goal in 2015 the last time we've won there I believe.
  10. Made my first ever pumpkin pie, off to eat turkey with our American friend. Happy Thanksgiving to all our USVTers.
  11. I saw him in Newtown of all places last winter. Sounds like the same/similar show. He's great imo. Seen him a couple of times and both were really good nights out.
  12. It's pretty much everything but The Metal within earshot of MrsVM.
  13. in terms of getting elected and potentially stopping war or not stopping war then his advisers, lobbyists, security councils, secret services, people with higher security clearances than the president - take your pick. I think the idea of the elected man being all powerful in ways to reign in the industrial military complex is rather naive in this day and age. Especially when neither could be described as all about the peace in their respective terms in office. Whatever their electioneering said at the time.
