Back in the saddle after the disappointing result on Saturday. This you would think is a must win.
We beat them fairly comfortably at their place not long ago and they are coming off the back of a home mauling at the hands of the dippers. So we will be massive favourites.
Couldn’t even begin to pick the team Pep will, but suffice to say it will have a few surprises in it no doubt.
We can’t be as poor in front of goal as on Saturday so think there will be goals and at both ends
4-2 Haaland (3) Bernado

Although I hate to say it, nearly ever game from now on in is a must win game. The dippers and arse look very like they will stay there all the way and we cant afford many more slip ups. Which worries me because our defending is not as good as it was 12 months ago, lets be honest Chelsea should have been 3 up at HT, game over. Have not looked up the stats but we must have very few clean sheets compared to this stage last season.
People saying we need to beat Arsenal at home and the dippers away, we need to do a lot more than that. Starting with a consistent solid defence and starting that tonight.
And can Pep and Co please do something about the corners, they are absolutely abysmal, embarrassingly bad actually.

Definitely a must-win game after dropping 2 points on Saturday. No Jack again so imagine we will see Doku over Bobb. I fear a massive over thinking from Pep - Akanji for Erling or somesuch. Seriously, if the back 4 is not walker stones ake and dias then i will be surprised

You need to quit with your high scoring predictions, they're like a bad omen.

Grealish and Gvardiol unfit everyone else available. Hopefully Stones starts. I’d give Bobb a start but I dare say he’ll go with Doku.

Walker deffo needs resting so that cunt Maupay cannot get him sent off.
Haaland still hasn't scored against this lot, that needs to change for sure.
Clean sheet is definetly required but unless Stones starts i somehwat doubt it will happen

I've a bad feeling that Saturday was the beginning of a bad patch.
We will drop points.

There is no way PeP can play Akanji tonight and I don't expect him to...He surely cannot ignore just how shit hes been lately!
Walker stones Dias and Ake has to be the back 4 ( I put walker in as I expect him to be much improved and, with Stones next to him, I reckon he will shine tonight)
THEY SAY SWEARING IS DUE TO A LIMITED VOCABULARY. I KNOW THOUSANDS OF WORDS, BUT I STILL PREFER "FUCK OFF" TO "GO AWAY"

Brentford will come park the bus and try to get the ball to Toney. It wont be easy but I expect a reaction and we win.

Last Saturday has left me feeling a bit concerned about this game, stating the obvious but we really need to be showing how clinical we can be when the chances are created. We will create the chances but will we convert? Think Bobb is worth a chance especially after the goal at Newcastle.

A nice, simple, straightforward 4 nil will do me. I'd like a night off from trauma and anxiety please. Even though we've won 12 and drawn 1 or whatever, each match seems hard work to me
