I'd be surprised if we can win both of those games. Arsenal seem to have found a bit of life in themselves now Sanchez has gone (I'm basing this off one game, mind), and United are ruddy tough to break down, as we saw earlier this season (albeit without Kane)
Agree but all are beatable. If we have our A Game then all is possible.

They have but I do think people are overlooking/forgetting the reason why Sanchez became so difficult to play with. He wasn't happy with how his team continuously shot themselves in the face and how they seemingly had this loser attitude 'remember Giroud's celebration in the 3-3' because the guys a winner and doesn't settle for second best, whereas a lot of their players do. As stated, if we are on our A game I expect us to bully them again.

The irony of this is the main thing I'm worried about is that they now have Sanchez. So you know it's written in the stars that he'll score the winner or some bullshit like that.
Though in typing that out loud... how often has he fully turned up/caused us issues?

2 goals 0 assists in 6 league games. The 2-2 in 15/16 and the 2-0 this season.

Does it? What CM’s we looking at?
No idea but I think it's in relation to the 'big time' player JJ and Herc referred to. Reading between the lines of what was said by the ITKs I suggested in one of the threads that perhaps the attacking player is a player we have been linked to (Malcom, Moura) whereas the 'big time' player was a CM or similar and it got winnered by someone who's in the know,

Next time people moan about "Spurs always follow a great win with a daft loss", remember today. It happens to everyone.

I expect the frequency will increase for the rest of the season as well when you take into account that 12 clubs are still in relegation danger !

so Man City bid £50m for mahrez because they have sane out for 5. to 6 weeks.I say wow and what is the point of football now why don't the uber rich sit down and play poker for all there billions the winner takes all the rest can f..k off
Dear me what is the point I see no ending except Man City .;psg;chelsea;man unt ;real and Barca with no one else able to compete why don't they clear off and make their own little super league and let the rest of us get on with playing reasonably competitive football even teams like arsenal spurs Bayern Monaco Liverpool and suchlike will not be playing on anything like a reasonable playing field cash wise .
when city win all four competitions this year my attitude will be "so what".
if they offer the likes of us to join there little cartel it will only be to make their group of 5 clubs bigger so as to appear there is areal competitive league taking place.i would so no thanks as the viewing public would soon get fed up with the same 5 clubs playing against each other.
Football in a short time would thrive without this five clubs but they would be losing European cup;uefa cup ;there own proper league plus there own proper cups.
please you 5 clubs piss off and let the rest get on with a proper competition

Best will in the world I can’t see Huddersfield getting anything tonight. Just can’t see them scoring even against the Liverpool defence

It looks like Keanan Bennetts has signed for Huddersfield and is playing in their no. 8 shirt tonight.

It "looks like", you horrible nasty post-raters, you.
