Three P’s, there’s always going to be those ilk of fans as you rightly point out. Let them be. A lot of this is fuelled by Media Frenzy. They need something to chew on to fill up their ‘column inches’ etc. Things are obviously going well, so they just want something do dig into.
I just hope this doesn’t venture into a full-blown disruption and I don’t think it will as these guys are professionals and fully-focused.

Does Bruno return?

3rd January 2025 at 6:31 pm #217109Usually you are banned for two matches if it’s your 2nd red card of the season but his first was overturned on appeal so only a one match ban. So yes he returns.

3rd January 2025 at 7:57 pm #217112I cannot remember the last time Bruno turned up against Liverpool in a league game.
My prediction is 4 nil to Liverpool.

4th January 2025 at 8:17 am #217114That’s the thing cm, everyone is predicting a liverpool hammering like they did 3 times last season and we won none of them
On paper and form we should win all day but last season was the same.
Im expecting a tight difficult game.

4th January 2025 at 9:35 am #2171153 points will do me; We already have a good goal difference and I don’t really personally care about bragging rights. We have Forest and Brentford away which I would deem as tough games and I take 4 points now if offered out of those 2.
Gunners can trim our lead down tonight if they win at Brighton.

4th January 2025 at 10:57 am #217116Last seasons results are irrelevant. We are miles ahead tactically than last season, both going forward and defending. It was very easy for a team like Utd to shut up shop against us.
More relevant is this seasons game at OT which Liverpool won very easily. Utd have changed manager since and whilst he might go on to be a success the early signs are they are worse off.
I think a 3 at the back can be easily got at using Slots tactics and Szoboszlai may be a key player.
I’m not going to say we will thrash Utd as anything can happen in football but I can’t remember being this confident before the match.

4th January 2025 at 11:37 am #217117Sorry should have put the results and performance last season are irrelevant, but can see your point Sean about the expectations. I think most of those last season where from pundits that couldn’t see our inadequacies going forward however. I wasn’t surprised last season but would be if the same happens again.

4th January 2025 at 12:22 pm #217118That March stains a little bit in the back of our minds. It comes with the territory but I don’t like us being hyped up by the Media. Some people just jump on the bandwagon and aren’t real football fans. They see it as a platform to milk relevance and cash. They think Top Flight Football never existed beyond 1992.
Liverpool are none to F’ it up as well as being England’s most successful. When I say we have tough games, it’s what I believe them to be. We need to show up EVERY game. Van Dijk has a mistake in him and we need Konate back.
Zobo a key component for us to break into their defence. He and Macca cover so much green grass. We can’t rely just on the flanks. Hope for an Electric Atmosphere. Let’s take it as it comes.

4th January 2025 at 8:10 pm #217123Sean, not fully sure on that mate. Lol will have to see properly tomorrow morning etc. Looked suspiciously ‘manufactured’.

4th January 2025 at 8:13 pm #217124Couple of my mates on our group chat have called it. Lol, I’m certainly not calling it. 5 points only. Those 2 games in hand don’t mean too much. We will drop points in the next sequence of our games. Our test is how we bounce back from adversity and Slot I must say Phenomenal given that he’s never managed the Prem.
Caution Tread Tread Tread 🙂 🙂

4th January 2025 at 8:15 pm #217125We’re pretty good this evening in the midlands, but forecast otherwise states of Snow heading north. The game may even be called off; Wow! We shall see.

4th January 2025 at 9:47 pm #217127Sean, didn’t know it was potentially that bad; Wowzers, 2 of our matches against our Enemies called off due to bad weather etc.
Wow, just dunno.

4th January 2025 at 10:04 pm #217128Circumstances rightly can’t be helped but equally, we don’t want to be in a place where our fixtures are piled on. Organizers/Whoever will just try and shoe-horn it conveniently.
What if we would have injuries? Players tiring; suspensions.
Ok, would Love to Embrace and just take it all as it lands, but our ‘Company’ should then seek to signing Top Class New Players; 2? 3? Reinforcements that kind of thing.
Preparation Ultimately and Ready for what ‘Life’ throws at us.
