We can then let the kids have a couple of games and maybe even little Emi gets a few minutes run out. Lovely. Will Mrs Martinez agree to this public display of her husbands manhood in public?

Popular Post WakefieldVillan Posted May 8 Popular Post Share Posted May 8 I think it's pretty obvious that the ones that are saying we "might" not get another point, their reasoning is purely down to how fatigued we have looked recently and how much the squad is stretched right now. Oh to be fielding a team to face the Reds with a fully fit Kamara (biggest loss), Ramsey, Tielemans, Buendia, Moreno, Mings....ETC. I know some of these haven't played all season, but it's over the past few weeks where the injuries have shown a lot more. Some of the lads are clearly running on empty. That's why I can't get angry with them, I wasn't angry against Olympiakos (frustrated, maybe) nor at Brighton - How can you you be, they have put so much into the season. I just hope they can muster one, two, three, preferably four more big performances and finish the season on an ultimate high. I thought putting some money on Spurs would ease my worries of failure, a softening blow, but to be honest, it hasn't done a damn thing, I'm still nervous as hell. Spurs are capable of drawing / losing to Burnley but they are also capable of beating Man City (riding their luck in the process you would imagine) - but the sooner they fail or we produce the goods (IE Liverpool) the better. Last day drama not for me.. please. 9 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't do panicking pal..... We look absolutely knackered - Spurs have a decent record vs City when playing at home and Burnley and Blades are dogshit. Not saying it will happen, nor do I want it to obviously, however stranger things have happened...... Edited May 8 by Dillon66 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ben1505 Posted May 8 Share Posted May 8 I know it's not all about me but from a purely selfish point of view, it's been difficult to watch the premier league games that have been moved to a Sunday to accommodate the conference league fixtures. I'm based in NZ so they've been on a Monday morning 3am. Champion's League fixtures will probably mean that the premier league games can still be on a Saturday so early Sunday morning out time.... much more palatable.... like I said, it's selfish..

ben1505 Posted May 9 Share Posted May 9 (edited) Whatever result happens at Old Stratford between Manure and the Arse, City will want to go full tilt against Spurs... there's been talk of them being happy with a draw if Arse draw/lose at Old Stratford but I don't see it myself... there's no merit in drawing v Spurs.. they can win the league at Spurs then rotate players in their final home game before the FA cup game.

That's right you never know.... It applies both ways though, We could, despite being heavily fatigued, get enough points that Spurs can't catch us.... You never know... Spurs could not get the two nailed on victories and massive GD gain on us from their easy fixtures... You never know... None of us know what is actually going to happen.. What I do know is I would rather be the team on 67 points after 36 matches, than 60 points after 35 matches.... Oh and our form has been better than theirs quite convincingly, despite all the fatigue, suspensions and injuries that seems to have so many stressed that we are going fail...

True….it’s all hypothetical. I say enjoy enjoy the ride. Percentages and probabilities are in our favour so I’m trying to stress less and enjoy tomorrow then Monday, whilst probably also be on the each of my seat come Tuesday if results haven’t fallen our way. Hahahaha Tbh I think we’ll get through tonight, my prediction is again via penalties, well that’s what I hope have a lazy $250 on penalties, both teams to score, Ollie for a goal and Bailey for an assist. Fingers crossed. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's how games are lost Yeah I'd like to know which of the Man C115y players said that. I'm sure their manager would like to know too, so he could drop them from the squad. In all seriousness though, why would anything fans say have any relevance on how professional footballers perform? Who cares if a few of their fans have said they would take a draw? It has absolutely zero impact on the game. People do like to chat some utter bullshit at times. Edited May 9 by GlobalVillan Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I said something a few pages back that I hope they don’t rest on their laurels if Manure beat Arsenal then City beating Fulham knowing they’d win the title at home on the final day. I was talking in hypotheticals and expect people to blow a pooper valve over it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
