    Going back to Manchester United - their away form is pretty good. As for City, they might lose to Everton in the Cup, so leaves the way for a SFC v Everton semi.

    Interestingly I thought Fraser gave it a wallop upfield more often than we have been recently, against SU. Almost led to a couple of chances too. It may be agricultural and old fashioned, but I don't mind it now and again!

    and what about the time he came about 20m from his area to mop up? Loved that!

    Revenge for '84? Have we got an Adrian Heath?

    Richarlison is 9/1 to score first tonight, having a dabble on that.

    Shhhhhhhhhcant mention that name!!

    however, I did call it a little while back. Beat Everton on the semi: revenge for 84. Beat United in the final: revenge for 2017

    It’s happening.

    If we win all of our remaining matches and City loses all of theirs, we'll edge them out 66 points to 65!

    I thought our primary tactic on Sat was long ball, and it was very effective. I’ve got no problem using it, against the right opposition. Actually makes perfect sense against teams playing a high back line.

    Garth Crooks wants JWP to go to Liverpool, says there is no better replacement for Wijnaldum.

    Personally I don’t think he’s at that level. Smacks of the Schneiderlin to Man Utd affair.

    There must be a lot of managers drooling over JWP’s set pieces though.

    And JWP's set pieces are much less of a necessity for Liverpool than most, because TAA is a rather good striker of a dead ball in his own right.

    If a big(gish) club came in for him, I'd imagine that it'd be more like an Arsenal. They've been miserable from set pieces this season, and presumably at some point they'll stop throwing Xhaka out there.

    Oi, you’re as bad as Garth!

    Fair shout though, Prowsie would be a good signing for Arse. Just hope he realizes they wouldn’t offer much in return, save for the higher wages.

    Yeah, not trying to sell him, I just get annoyed when the writers who are trying to sell our players are too lazy to even consider it in depth. Flog them properly or not at all dammit!
