    Improved that for you.

    People take football far too seriously.

    22 vastly overpaid pricks kick a pig's bladder around a field and we treat it as a matter of life and death.

    Apparently nothing wrong...she has been very busy. At least it keeps her away from the games...hence our 3 match unbeaten run (sounds good put like that, doesn't it ? :)).

    Think you'll find it's more important than that.

    Yes, strange I too seem rather positive & I just can't work out why!? It can't just be it's "lil" Burnley because that wasn't the case vs Watford or Hudders. I know there's a dynamic here but I think I'll go with, it's because of a full moon.

    Blogger that says Pellegrino needs to set out the team to suit the players he has....not the players he would like to have. I agree....our players are talented....has Tadic suddenly lost all his skill....of course not. If it carries on as it is, the team will lose heart as they did under Puel. I couldn't honestly point at any player and say that he was poor and shouldn't be wearing the shirt....unlike some fans who think we are Real Madrid and should have the players to match. We are hard to score against, but sadly, unless you can get a couple of goals routinely in most games, that may not be good enough as the opposition will still create chances. We will rarely get stomped on and most outsiders (unlike some fans) see us as a decent side, but this is now looking like a second OKish season....probably without the fun of getting to Wembley. I will accept this if it is temporary, but would like to see the board provide the players to enable MP2 to play the style he wants (and the one the board wants as well, since they employed him). What I don't want (and we don't need) is another managerial change where presumably we will go for the same type of manager and give him the wrong tools again. We have a good side, but we need to get the ball to the striker(s) where they want the ball....look at the difference the Mane, Pelle, Long axis made.

    End of sermon. Doesn't mean we won't win tomorrow....because we will. We are a better side than some fans think....sometimes you just need a moment...like Boufal's goal. Tomorrow is our day....follow me, brothers and sisters, over the barricades.

    I can't see any way that this doesn't end up with 3 points to us and a massive boost to our goal difference.
