As city are going to plough through spurs like a knife through butter, it really doesn't matter.Quote:

There's always Fulham. And Manchester United may even have a new manager by the time we visit :-\Quote:

incredible from both teams tbf
My concern is, surely they can't be that bad twice in a row. That said, spurs have done it 4x in a row.Quote:

My concern is just United. They hate us. It is easier for them to accept City winning another title than us winning it as they can sit there and label City as a bunch of cheats. Us winning it is a nightmare for them.Quote:

The nightmare scenario is City drop points at Fulham and then we don't win at Old Trafford. But **** it! We are still in it and that is an achievement.
But when we rock up that changes. :-(Quote:

So we need to be at our best :-)

How about this Olise chap?Quote:

Arteta would make sure we ended up with the good one. Or anyway, the acceptable one. Assuming he would even consider him.Quote:

I prefer Eze but would be happy with eitherQuote:

Arteta doesn't turn these guys into serious professionals. He kicks out the ones that aren't.Quote:

Excellent point!Quote:

Having studied YouTube for ninety seconds, I now know EVERYTHING about him. Probably spends a little too much time and money at Dave's International Hair Salon in Peckham, as I suspected.Quote:

You’re forgetting, Vieira though ?Quote:

Both points are true :-)Quote:

The lad needs to put on 20kg imoQuote:

You are kidding right, 7s? You honestly have not seen any talent in the lad? Have you not been watching? He is very talented but needs to add some weight and experience, basically to grow up a bit.Quote:

You really do love giving up on players early, 7s.
Can't underestimate Manchester United players though; one of them is even playing in a Champions League semi final tonight lol.Quote:
