Absolutely it is far from over
But also it’s absolutely still in our hands. Unless you believe the dippers will win every remaining game. And to be honest, if they do that then hats off to them.
There will be many twists and turns along the way, you can be sure of that

Take a point, especially after the second half. And in the scheme of things it isn’t a bad result in terms of the title race. Of course a win would have been better, but too many players weren’t on top form, which they need to be to get a win here. And I include Pep in his team tactics and management of the game.
But we are still favourites for the league and it’s onwards to the next game

You said what I was going to, Amazed Doku got the benefit of doubt.

Not happy with the second half, which probably stemmed from the Ake Ederson fuck up
But I'll take a point and the fact we are all so angry shows how far we've come

Shit ourselves and let them dominate as soon as they equalise. Kick and rush football just gradually knocked us back. We didn't give Haaland any service and Pep drags off our provider KDB. Walker cant hold is place Imo, too many errors, wrong decisions and inconsistent service. I'd have taken a draw beforehand but they aint all that

The difficulty for Kevin is that he tries ambitious passes and when they come off he’s great. On the other hand if his radar’s a bit off he can look poor.

So the real Derby is a few weeks away on a Sunday over at whisky nose's gaff. A draw will do fine . gives the rags hope and us a chance to stay on top.

We really did miss him today, he is exceptional in these tough away matches were not losing the ball is crucial. Alvarez and doku not a patch on him in these games
derby day the scores were level,
then the goat was fed by neville,
silly boy should know for sure,
feed the goat and he will score!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I think the rags are going to stop them.
But annoying Kevin is an absolute collasal fuck up. Poor man management today. Bench one leader and take off the other.
Piss poor.

Piss poor.
His failure to see the diabolical display from Alvarez in the first half is a bigger worry, arguably. Subbing KDB was crazy. Kovacic for Alvarez was a no-brainer at half-time, surely?
After the ball was centred, after the whistle blew...

My concern, not this game, Tottenham away especially Son.
Forest away will be tricky. I'm hoping the vermins will gas out at the final hurdle. Arsenal, they'll bottle it eventually.

Kevin played poorly He could have taken off Bernardo and stuck Foden on the Right I suppose. He obviously felt Kevin wasn’t going to produce anything magical and he needed to shore up midfield. We improved after the substitutions tbh.

I was a bit shocked how well they played. Some credit is due and to our people, the ones who didn't fuck up.
Special mention for Ortega
If Dokus shot, or the one that hit Foden on the head, had gone in - different result

Apparently Kevin completed 64 per cent of his passes today. He tries ambitious passes of course but that’s a low number.

He saw that Alvarez was playing badly and took him off. You might question why it took so long. However Alvarez has come up with some great goals from free kicks etc . Perhaps that was the reason .
More worrying is why he placed him on the left when he is not a left winger.
