Liverpool v Arsenal next weekend too with us at home. I know Everton will be tough, but we really need to take advantage of that.

Yeah totally. Liverpool have looked rough today.
Everton will be tough, but don't think they'll be sitting in against us like Forest did. Need to get a win on Saturday.

You’re joking aren’t you? A Sean Dyche team, not sitting in? It’ll be a physical slog. With 11 men behind the ball.
Was watching United Liverpool game earlier and I was thinking there were not so many players out there I would take over our first team. None from United.
I think anything less than top 4 would now be considered a disappointment. That is how good a job Ange has done

I
Not if we get a relatively early goal.
Theyre in great form, and havent conceded in four, but some speed in our play and we could cut them to pieces

Like West Ham?
It’s going to be a really difficult game. Especially with our missing players.

I had a discussion with my partner's son earlier on about this very subject and said that the only United player I'd take is Garnacho - esentially because there is a bloody good player there that Ten Haag hasn't been able to mould properly, whereas I think Ange would.
Saying all of that I would pass on the remaining players in that shower of shite of a team.

Will be difficult, but Kulusevski is key.
He was on the right against West Ham, Johnson left....was at the game and they kept checking back most of the game....
If he's central here...with Johnson on the right (hopefully ok to start) we should offer more attacking edge and hopefully that will prove the difference.
Our balance just looks better.
We'll have to be on point at defending set pieces against them though, theyre an imposing side.
They will have a dip, haven’t they pretty much played the same starting 11 every game

And they'll do it very well. Expecting another West Ham type game, and we know how that ended...

They will also continue the 2023 tradition of kicking our players up in the air all game, with a first yellow on 65 minutes.

Cos the rules have changed for next season and beyond.
We’ll still get a 5th team in,

originally it was to stop it just being a status quo spot that will always go to the same leagues every single season. Not going to stay that way for long though is it.

They've also been really lucky with some of their away games, like us not capitalising on our chances and Brentford getting Mee sent off.

After at least two or three of our players have been booked for things that weren’t fouls when their players did the same.
