    Bournemouth normally allow teams to play so expect us to win at home & with the games running out that is all we need to do to make top 4.

    Hendo will be back and I presume he will replace Milner who has played 3 games in 6 days. Well played sir.

    he has really worked his bollocks off whilst also playing well - particularly in the home tie against City.

    Milner's been quality, led by example as captain too

    One pundit said Hendo is the best presser of the game. As for me, I don't know, what about you?.

    Lallana was the best before injury. Firmino is also up there.

    Heard that, at least somebody is appreciating Hendo's finer attributes. Its one of the strongest parts of his game

    That’s bollocks. Hendo is really poor defensively.

    Firmino is by far the best.

    its just first of losers

    in the end we have a unique opportunity here and we have to try our best for it.

    I believe our best is keeping going and being ourselves.

    I would only rest between the two legs. that game is i think stoke.

    I'm more interested in him getting to 33 league goals personally.

    I think winning Champions League is a bigger deal and more prestigious than winning domestic title... But I want domestic title more because haven't had it in a long time.

    Obviously domestic is out of our reach until next year (next year is our year)... Champions League is still unlikely... But we have better odds there than PL.

    fair enough too. thats another record

    i like the 48 goals personally. one is almost linked to the other

    eg.

    39 goals now
    29 in league
    8 in europe
    1 in European qualifier
    1 in cup


    5 league games
    2 CL games (ahem min)

    needs 9 goals total in 7 games for 48.

    So a goal a game in prem = 5.

    29+5 = 34. so yours is met automatically

    So if he gets a hatrick this weekend plus 4 more (goal a game) = 7 in 5.

    that leaves him needed just 2 goals in CL Sf (ahem or final) to get 48.

    I want to see a mo mo hat trick this weekend!

    Harry Kane is going to have mental break down if Salah wins the golden boot.

    we all want one go at that one.

    CL is over 6 group matches with 3 wins usually enough. 2 last 16, 2 qf, 2 sf, 1 final = 13 games. YOu don't even need win half of them. you can draw away and win at home and walk the comp if you are good enough.

    Prem or La liga is a week in week out 38 game grind where you can only afford to drop 2 points per block of 4. (matchs is every 4 games get 10 points = 95 points at end) ok so it can very form 85 to 95 points but thats what you need to do 9 or 10 points every 4 games. thats more wins and more effort

    Hope we perform in this one. In the past we have been guilty of a great result followed by losing to a team we should beat comfortably. Fingers crossed.

    I dont care if we play like complete dogs*** as long as we grind out a win. Yesterday's game took a lot of effort.

    so 'appy 'arry kane, the new spiv of london, has been award a goal for a ball breezing past him this robbing is own team mate.

    it's very clear who the fa want to win it's awards now.

    so mo salah will need at least 10 more league goals as the fake pens and forgotten offside are going to start flowing big time in favour of the English hope.

    good job personal glory isn't important though.

    Milner & Robbo are pretty good at it too. All three are ahead of Hendo, Mane too imo. Depending on if he can find his pre-injury form, Lallana as well.

    Actually, I was being harsh on Hendo. As the number 6, his job isn’t to press. It’s to screen.

    However, when he was a box to box mid in his prime, he was good at it.
