Farke is either on drugs or has to stop drinking moonshine.

I have a pretty strong feeling this will be Slot’s last game today.

Why?

 

[rurikbird]

We might not even lose… but no discernible improvement in performance will confirm that there is no turnaround on the horizon - so owners will have to take drastic steps to save our CL qualification.

Top 5 get CL. We could shit the bed til Feb and still do that. Look at Villa. They were in the relegation places at the start of the season.

Why?

I’ve gone for Leeds to beat us 3-0 on my super six score predictions. That never happens. That’s how I see the game playing out.

I’m less optimistic, given our form, who we have in charge and how tight the table is.

The last time we managed back-to-back league wins was in Sep — right before our first defeat, which officially marked the start of our poor run of results in all competitions.

Villa may have started the season slowly, but they were never really struggling — just 2 defeats in 17 matches across all competitions since Sep (W12 D3 L2).

If that happens it’ll be extremely tough to take.

It wasn’t just back to back though. It was 5 league wins in a row. Not a lot has to go right for us to go on a similar run imo.

Players are coming back from injury, new signings starting to settle. Salah has had a rest.

We are ready.

Yeah, not a lot has to happen to go on that sort of run again.

We just need to learn to defend, attack, progress the ball in transition, learn to press and win the ball back, sort out a decent tactic, a formation, come up with a discernible pattern of play, lift the confidence of the players, get the players trusting and believing in the manager, get underperforming players performing again, stop being retards, learn how to defend set pieces...

Maybe a few more. But, yeah. Easy.

Players are coming back from injury, new signings starting to settle. Salah has fucked off to AFCON for 6 weeks had a rest.

We are ready.

Amended to show an improvement to our chances of that actually happening.

Pretty much sums it up. Let's see at 5:30pm
