Massive game against Palace on Sat - would be really great to still be in the mix going into the World Cup break after the turbulent start to the season. Reset, new pre-season for the next 6 weeks to get the squad gelling more.
(also a win on Sat means we pass Derby's record lowest premier league points tally so they're still the worst team in history
It's not the end of days if we don't win on Sat and we'll still have 6 more points than Newcastle did in December last year so, anything is still possible after the WC, but would be great to go into the loooong break on a positive note.
I loved my time in Austria (despite my politics preferences and despite me being a foreigner) but they did have some strange hobbies to be fair so who knows
I remember when Derby then did so badly, our fans were saying things along the lines of "it's a blessing in disguise as that would have been us" whereas we went on to win the league the next season. However we also got spanked back down again the following year so it just delayed the inevitable
Their first goal came against the run of play, but in the 2nd half we didn't really turn up. By the time he brought on the two Gabi's, Zinchenko and Xhaka it was too late.
Hein had a nightmare. Felt sorry for him as his head went after giving away the pen. Some of the balls he tried to play out from the back just put our players under pressure.
Vieira went missing.
Saliba was a different class. He's ridiculously cool under pressure.
I can't help about the shape I'm in, I can't sing I ain't pretty and my legs are thin
But don't ask me what I think of you, I might not give the answer that you want me to
Yes Saliba is class, he looks so assured and a top quality centre back, glad we are giving him a stint in the team, looks like he never went away.
Pleased Ben White is in, he's been outstanding this season playing out of position at RB. He can cover in different positions which will be a bonus. Also Maddison, he's been in good form this season. I don't think Sterling should be in there, he's been rubbish at Chelsea this season.
Rashford has found a bit of form.. unlike Sterling, Maguire, Phillips, etc..
is it crazy how saying sentences backwards creates backwards sentences saying how crazy it is?
Would be good to see you lot make a bit of a climb up the table in the league (not just because it could potentially be at Wolves' expense)
I like Rashford when he is on form decent selection, I thought Toney would have done enough to be a reserve striker not really noticed Willson this season.
Interesting to see if Maddison gets a game, must be ahead of Mount surely. I like Phillips assuming he is fit enough to be at his best.
Gives Cooper a real dilemma for Saturday - I think if he starts the same squad (or variation of, as Mangala has a 1 match ban for crocking Richarlison (worth it
the 6 week break will do us the world of good too, I think. We only have 5 players going to Qatar (3 of which are welsh, and 2 are starters in our team), so it's a good chance of a proper pre-season now we have the squad in place, get some minutes in some friendlies and try some combinations to see what does and doesn't work. We've also got Niakhate to come back from injury (our best CB) as well as Omar Richards, who *should* be our starting LB.
Biggest surprise of the season so far is Serge Aurier - not yet once lost his head and seems to have matured since being at Spurs. Bloke is an absolute baller.
Maguire - I just don't get it? This is where loyalty goes too far. It's like the days of old when we took an injured player. If you aren't playing well you shouldn't be there.
Kalvin Phillips is more mind boggling. Literally not played more than about 20 minutes all season, but somehow still got picked.
