Didn't Dalot go off holding his hamstring & straight down the tunnel? Wouldn't expect to see him for a few weeks.
AWB hasn't been quite as catastrophic as before, so hopefully he can maintain that. Wouldn't expect anything more from him. Otherwise, let's hope Peps hilarious quips about implementing some ridiculous tactics has some merit & he shoots himself in the foot. Not feeling especially confident, regardless of our form - we've played a load of shite & City coming off the back of a defeat will likely be het up & mentally bang at it. Let's hope St Marcus continues his form |

They’ve not been great away tbf, far more pragmatic. Hopefully the crowd is absolutely fizzing and they struggle to shake off their recent malaise and we are at it from the kick off.
I think we have to be realistic and say we’re nowhere near their level, in personnel and familiarity with the manager’s style, but they’re beatable and we at home. |

Yep. Loads of reds I’ve spoken to think this will be an easy win
We’ve had a hugely impressive run but I still don’t think we’ve played that well that often. We will have to be at the very top of our game. If they play as well as they can then they should beat us. But the momentum feels like it’s with us. Bottom line, I’d be fine with a draw and anything better would be beautiful. 2-2 |

Our biggest game for years in the league imo. We're on a monster run, we look brilliant, we have Rashford firing them in for fun at the moment... If Arsenal stumble at Spurs and we turn over City, then we end the weekend breathing down the necks of the bitters and hunting down Arsenal as the Leagues most inform team with major players settling back into the team after the World Cup, with half the season left to play.
I honestly see Arsenal dropping a lot more points in this second half of the season, and if they do drop points this weekend and we win, and we then beat them next Sunday, we'll only be 3-4 points behind with all the momentum. If we win this weekend it's well and truly on. |

But we our last four wins in the league were with Shaw moving into the left centre back spot while Martinez was unavailable, and resting/dropping other players that would normally start, and we still won all four without conceding a goal. And Shaw ended up being class in that position. We're a complete different animal this season. Honestly think if we beat City and Arsenal next week we'll win the league. |

Not expecting a win but won't be surprised if we do. Cass to take out De Bruyne in the first five minutes will do. |

I think there are 2 switch options apart from Dalot if he is not fit. Fred for Erickson and Garnacho for Martial. All the rest is pretty much certain I think |
