Teddeer Posted 13 March, 2021 Share Posted 13 March, 2021 I'm sure every team in the Prem would be delighted to face the City side Pep has put out tonight. They have not clicked at all, look disjointed and totally ordinary. Brighton and Newcastle fans will be seething. Every chance Fulham could take 3 points here unless Pep makes some major changes for the second half. Parker can't believe his luck - last week a lethargic Liverpool and now a City team devoid of cohesion and ideas. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Teddeer Posted 13 March, 2021 Share Posted 13 March, 2021 Glad to see City reserves decided to break sweat in the second half - Pep must have had a word. Fulham were awful. Imagine how many the City team that we faced would have scored tonight - Mahrez, De Bruyne, Foden, Gundogan would have filled their boots. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But a win tomorrow would essentially seal the deal for us. 39 points will be enough and with the likes of Palace, Burnley and West Brom to come we'll pick up 3 points there no worries. Thats the players incentive tomorrow, win and we close the door on Brighton, Newcastle and Fulham - making it a three way fight if it wasnt already. We can then turn our focus to the FA Cup Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Absolutely batshit insane that people still think we need to win three games to stay up. Fulham, Brighton and Newcastle on a barnstorming surge to 42 points plus are they? Okay then. For Fulham to get to 42 requires top six form for the rest of the season. Fulham, who have 26 points and 22 goals from 29 games. Mental. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Saints did this so often during our proper relegation battles. The thing in our favour is not all 3 teams (Brighton, Newcastle and Fulham) will grind those results but I reckon two of them will. Watched Newcastle vs Leicester the other day and the players were smashing into tackles. Think them and Brighton will step it up another level for sure.

You think two from Brighton, Newcastle and Fulham will get to 42 points? Fair enough see you in May. And worth saying if you think one won't get there, then that team will be relegated right? So 42 not required after all. As I said. Edited 14 March, 2021 by CB Fry Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lighthouse Posted 14 March, 2021 Share Posted 14 March, 2021 Remember when Everton were a bottom half team and everyone thought they were in trouble when they had to sell Rooney?

Jimmy_D Posted 15 March, 2021 Share Posted 15 March, 2021 Rui Patricio just picked up what unfortunately looks to be a serious injury from his own defender. That'll open up yet another can of worms with VAR. Lino would have flagged offside (he did when play stopped) but play was allowed to continue and opened the opportunity for the injury to happen.

To be fair, it wouldn't have made any difference. The whistle was blown about 1 second after the collision, it wasn't the fault of VAR for allowing it to continue. But I'd agree the delay generally in other situations can lead to those situations. But I don't think VAR did anything wrong here, the collision would have happened had it been flagged off earlier anyway. But all academic anyway, Rui is fine. No issues. Probably a bad headache!
