You seem to have done mate. The evidence for the other two though is that they are very much still in Diva mode
They didn't score any legitimate goals. Both were offside and the first was from a free-kick that wasn't. Massively turned the game in the run-up to half-time, then Kane should've had a penalty early on in the second half. We played ****, but that's just ridiculous.
wtf, bayern are likes 7s. Thats ridiculous considering how much they've struggled. If i had to go for a dark horse, i actually reckon Chelsea have a chance. Mr Conte has a chip on his shoulder reckon we'll go far as he's deffo prioritising that trophy. Surprised you guys played Alli and Kane tonight. Considering they werent fully fit at the weekend and as PNP said, they didn't look right tonight, with you guys qualified surely that meant you should have been resting them?
Didn't see Kanes one and haven't seen a close up of it but if you're talking about when he falls onto the floor with Kolasinac, i'd say thats very very marginal. What about Vertoghens dive? Or Sanchez on Sanchez? As for the offside, when its that close (it's still not clear) then the benefit goes to the attacker. Anyway done to death. Well done on topping the group of death
They’re both pretty fit. We needed a result tonight to ensure winning the group. And in Kane’s case it was lack of match fitness. But his goal will have pumped him up again. Chelsea? I think your defense will get found out in the latter stages. And you don’t have City’s immense firepower going forward,
I’ll take that as a “no,” then. If you change your mind, pop along to my Mouser Watch thread. It might cheer you up a bit.
I suspect Pochettino wanted to get the job done with a fragile Dortmund + the APOEL game as a last resort if needed. So now for particular players, tis PL games only between now and the KO stages (barring FA Cup draws against certain PL clubs) .
okay. I thought its because of injuries and knocks (hamstring from a few weeks back and the palace player on him). I see the reason for playing match fitness but not if he was injured so fair enough
If he was still really injured I don’t think MP would play him. He’s far too important to us to take a silly risk with. A striker like Kane needs every bit of his match sharpness. It’s the difference between scoring and not.
I wouldn't put it past Poch to play him if he wasn't seriously injured. It's not the first time poch has played players who have been injured (although not in a dead rubber). - Maybe he's given up on the PL (11 points behind City) and wants to lay down a marker in the CL hence the first team - perhaps Kane isn't seriously injured - Maybe Kane said he was fine (you know what players are like, we have flogged Luiz from the looks of it). Anyway, he's in my FF team so he better bag a few against west brom
He played him in the Arsenal game with heavy strapping on his thigh. Must have interfered with the Sat Nav pooch had on the bench, because nobody could find Kane all afternoon
