Watching City cut through Tottenham(and most teams to be fair) with almost every attack makes our performance against them at the Emirates that much more special.

    I appreciate our defensive efforts this season but to be fair, Spurs have almost half of the starting 11 out due to injuries. 3 of them being in the back. Like. You can’t expect the bench to hold up City.

    I agree, but it might be a bit different at the Etihad. Still they look pretty vulnerable in defense when they go full on attack, so I think we can beat them there.

    We went punch for punch (block for block technically) with City and came out on top. And it was the first time I felt our teams were even.

    But de Bruyne coming back will free City so we have to be ready to win every remaining game.

    Anything we do that’s good isn’t talked about enough. Take MoTD last night, all they talked about is what wolves did wrong vs our two outstanding goals

    City are the strongest home team on planet earth. Not fair to compare them at home vs away as they were vs us

    Safe to say Spurs are not going to win anything with this approach. Exciting to watch but way too porous at the back.

    Newcastle at St James too where every team including PSG has been battered so far. Their whole xG was created by their “goal”.

    Tbf the way they play and especially the players they got in CB today doesn’t help haha

    I’m still hoping they somehow someway steal a point or more today

    Edit: Ange is genuinely cooking can’t lie.

    With that team and those CBs playing like that? Scoring twice? Mad.

    Definitely lucky they didn’t concede more but they play silky stuff ngl.

    They’ll mess up as always ofc but hopefully they don’t lose in these last few minutes…

    Edit 2: lol Bissouma had a stinker tonight. “Better than Rice” my ass

    Edit 3: nicely done chickens. Nicely done.
