Haaland misses a 1 on 1.

Keeper stands tall and makes a good stop, but it was right at him.

Darwin would’ve buried that.

Darwin would’ve also buried that 1 Kovacic blazed intow row Z.

I think he also scores the 1 which Delap made a meal out of earlier, boy could’ve had a hattrick today.

It was on OneFootball app for a while. Though they are still on a winter break.

I do think the change of CL format has pretty much ended them.

Anyhow always wondered the thought process of showing these ties at this time. At least Liverpool will try and beat themselves.

I know all teams have to have a certain amount of games on TV but you could shove this at the 2pm slot when people are doing stuff and the shops are open.

Football can be a funny game.

City’s steady return to stability IMO is in significant part from the role of Matheus Nunes in the hybrid RB position.

I still expect them to be our main challenge

Didn’t they throw a 2-0 lead against Brentford away last week?

Would say their return to stability or down to better results in this case was playing two of the bottom 3 and Westham.

The other results are the draw against Brentford, a draw against Everton and a loss to Man Utd.

Chelsea
Arsenal
Newcastle

Are the next three, Chelsea have hit a patch but if they win those 3 I’ll probably suggest they are back in form.

I’m not sure I’ve ever seen a top-flight team defend as badly as Ipswich in that half. Literally standing off the City players and allowing them to pick their spot.
If they do the same next week we should be good for 6 or 7 but of course they’ll put a shift in against us, bodies on the line and all that.
As for Forest their next 6 are fucking brutal and I’ll be amazed if they are still top 4 after it. Bournemouth, Newcastle and Fulham away, Brighton, City and Arsenal at home.

End of the day let’s just keep winning our games.

True the opposition has something to do with it, and their confidence at the back is still a little brittle.

However the key point here is the steady remergence of their game model

I like to think the frailties are there and Brentford showed that.

They are a decent side but at 2-0 I’m not sure I’d have expected them to come back. Like against us I felt if we scored we would probably see it out.

I was hoping it was before 91 mins but they all count as they say.

Anyhow we will see the next three are tough games. It seems Ipswich are already thinking about their roast dinner.

Some of the frailty is still there, but the confidence is also returning.
It’s not about the opposition per se, but how much their quality allows you to build back confidence.

In some ways similar to what happened to us at the beginning of the season

We agree to disagree.

If we can manage 9pts from our next four then I reckon it’s in the bag.
