Pep finding out the fourth year is not for him.

Letā€™s not get ahead of ourselves Magnus! IF we win against Sheffield and West Ham (who look like they will be a tough game) AND we then beat shiteh then Iā€™d be more comfortable. But really we have to get through until January without any injuries at CB - that will keep me (at least) on edge regardless.

True, true. But I just wanted to shake off some despair and inject some positivity. The table does not currently look bad for us despite 2 games out of 5 not getting us 3 points

I am going onto Bluemoon for a 5 min. Will report back.

I half hearted watched the game from about the 10th minute. Citeh had loads of chances and really could have scored another couple. West Ham had little of the ball but when they got it and went forward it looked very easy for them - Iā€™d say that they had opportunities to create a chance but ultimately without Antonio they didnā€™t really look like scoring. Yarmolenko mucked up some opportunities to create something late on but it was really in the middle of the park and transition that citeh looked most poor. Gundogan, aside from his special no-yellow-card fouls, really doesnā€™t suit citeh anymore and such a ā€˜geniusā€™ as Pep should have realised by now that playing Rodri and another clogger together puts too much pressure on the third midfielder. Why they donā€™t play Foden in there instead Iā€™m not sure - he and de Bruyne are really the difference between that citeh team and stone cold mediocrity.

What the fuck. Just saw the interview with Pep. Pep smiled and answered short, but the journalist was unable to ask good questions, just mumbling and it was very awkward to listen to.

Bluemoon is full of silly comments. I canā€™t be bothered to post them here. A lot of drama though.

No one would suggest that we wonā€™t miss Virg, but on this evidence perhaps the title race is still more open than the bookies would like to think.

I think we wonā€™t know who is in the real race before Christmas/January.
Very fascinating start of the season though.

I guess I am hoping for a Fulham win, just to make the table even stranger.

The way things are going 70-75 points might end up being enough for the title. Anyone can beat anyone hasnā€™t been more apt than it is this season.

I still suggest that we get 100.

Just in case.

I think more than that is needed. Perhaps 90-95, but maybe indeed less. I think the corona situation may have wrecked a lot of team preparations and that the results perhaps show that so far. But I do think most teams will get more solid after 8-10 games. Hard to say though, maybe you are right. My crystal ball doesnā€™t work that well with such long term forecasts :wink:

Yeah, it will take 12-13 games to get bearing of things.

Considering itā€™s us, thatā€™s the level of safety margin weā€™ll need. Never sure what new nonsense might come up to ā€˜null and voidā€™ the season when we are ahead.
