      Well, the only way back into the game for Spurs is through Chelsea. only if we lose our concentration and give away cheap balls.

          The only issue I have with that lineup is Alonso on the bench. I would have preferred him to be on the LWB as he does well every time he faces the Spuds. but I understand our scarcity at LWB. if we come out from this game unscathed, then we could prepare for our biggest game of the season. anything other than a defeat will be good.

            No problem Ed, it was inappropriate words, although it could have been made in the heat of the moment. I would still like to plead for leniency. A warning will do the trick.

              I won’t resort to abuse or any derogatory words. I think we have outclassed our noisy neighbours😊. And best of it, they have our former coach. Try copying us. That is very good. Next, think is a small matter of FA cup, then our biggest game of the season follows.

                Spurs players are all over the ref trying to influence a red card for a Chelsea player. Disgusting!

                  Between Brighton and Brighton, I know which one I would rather play. and if City has Arsenal, we have one of the best in the league in Liverpool. Without disrespecting Brentford and Arsenal, I think City has easier on both occasions.

                    The good news is that Kante is on the bench alongside Havertz. it seems that our injuries are easing now. with back-to-back games against our title rivals, we need a fully fit Kante and a firing Lukaku. Werner should be back in the coming days, the only short-term absenteeism we have now is T.Silva and Loftus Cheek. We all know that Chilwell misses the rest of the season. so I’m not counting him. I think the next few weeks will be crucial.

                      I have to say that is awful news to get only days after receiving positive news from him that he was making light training. We missed him very much, he was in the form of his life. Now we should consider someone with experience to replace.

                      My preferred choice is Lucas Digne from everton on a loan deal. He has PL experience, he is a cheaper option, and he has fallen out with Rafa. So why not grab him until the end of the season. With the option of buying him should things work.

                      Another option is Theo Hernendez from AC Milan, rumours says he will likely cost Β£54m to the club, very expensive IMO! we should think of making that kind of investment in the summer. I checked his stats, he has 6 goals in 33 apps in 2019/20, he had 7 goals in 33 Apps again in 2020/21, and he has 2 goals in 15 Apps this season. He is worth of a consideration.

                      The final man in the frame is Ajax left back NicolΓ‘s Tagliafico. Unlike Hernendez, he will be cheaper option, at 28 entering his prime, have CL experience, knows how to win. He thicks many boxes.

                      But at the moment my belief is, Lucas Digne is our best option in this mid season transfer, and he is out of favour at his current club. I was reading that Everton are interested to sign Barkley in January, why not use him as a bait? It’s Tuchel and Marina’ s call though.😊

                        Well, I have to say that was a huge goal for Lukaku and the result was huge for Chelsea. it was an impressive 45-minute display. he gave us a focal point in attack. against Pulisic, Villa was comfortable. but once Lukaku came on, we took our game a notch higher. also, CHO gave us the width and skill we have been lacking.

                          I was reading that Chilwell is back on light training in the gym and is targeting mid January return. That is the best news i have heard recently. We missed him more than any other player. Since we lost him, we haven’t kept a clean sheet. Also, i’m reading Kante and Chalobah are back. That will ease the load from Jorginho though. We will be stronger once again. But my only worry is Lukaku not firing all cylinders.

                                Chelsea cannot get PSG, instead, Chelsea could get drawn against Bayern or Real Madrid.

                                  I would take whoever we get drawn, if you want to win, you need to beat the best teams in the tournament. but this shows the level of influence that United has over Uefa.

                                      I think we are forgetting that we have 2-3 key players missing. Kante and Kovacic are both anupgrade to Loftus Cheek. Chilwell is an upgrade to Alonso. And we have a host of players who are out of form. Our dip in form is understandable. But am glad we have won. If we can win games, then the confidence will return. The only worry is have that we are not creating enough chances for Lukaku.

                                      The reason as to why our dedense is struggling is because they are getting zero protection from our midfield. Both Loftus Cheek and Jorginho are not as good defensively as Kante and Kovacic. I have also observed when Werner plays alongside Lukaku, he performs better. It’s high time that Pulisic also starts games. A front trio of Pulisic, Mount and Lukaku will be very good offensively.

                                        Nine,

                                        I’m glad that Azpi is back to the RCB role. Christensen has been struggling in that role in our last premeier league game. Azpi will support both James and Silva. Our best man for that role is Chalobah, since his injury we have suffered defensively.

                                          Now I’m disappointed with how we played tonight defensively, but i’m pleased that our two strikers have found the net. That will be good news for me, regardless of where we finish, if we want to win the biggest prize in Europe, we have to face the best. Now we can’t face, Liverpool, City, United, PSG and Juventus. That is 90% of the tough teams, we only have Bayern Munich and Real Madrid to worry. And who knows who may get. personally, I’m most delighted that Lukaku has taken the monkey off his back, who knows if he may go on a scoring spree now. and the way Timo Werner finished his second goal has also excited me. i hope this momentum continues.

                                            Not sure which formation we are playing tonight, 4-3-3? Or 3-4-2-1 and Saul as a LWB? If it’s back four, then that is interesting.
