Genuinely intrigued as to your thought process about where to take off caps lock

Depends on who we get drawn after if we beat Barcelona. It’s europa league so I suspect there are still a few obscure cannon fodder teams in the competition.

We don’t have the depth to fight on 4 trophies. One of them will have to take the hit . Maybe even two. Right now you prioritise the league and carabao cup seeing as we are in the final.

If we beat Barcelona we have reprioritise a bit and play the second string in the FA cup.

ETH isn’t one to play a weakened side however. The last time we did this, ole got the players to the semi and finals and they looked shattered. Need to be careful. Hopefully the likes of Eriksen and martial come back within the next 2-3 weeks.

Can’t remember how long Eriksen is out for. We may get away with playing the likes of slab and lindelof/malacia in the fa cup

Need to dump at least one. But… Erik implying we’re hardy training and reckons we learn more from actual games + have a chance of progress. His pos attitude and nous have been outstanding so far. Hard not to trust.

Nathan Jones binned. Deffo going to be gone too long.

Amazed he lasted another week tbh.

Southampton have sacked that bridge troll they hired.

One of the worse appointments in PL history.

The likes of slab and lindelof need to do their bit. It’s a shame they’re £#%&!. Maguire can defend a bit but with ETHs tactics of playing with the ball and pressing , his weaknesses will show.

Against West Ham maybe The Scottish Player comes back. Start Sancho, and garnacho.

I know the likes of The Scottish Player , Slab , lindelof aren’t ideal, but at some point we have to utilise the rubbish because come the end of the season in those tough semi final and final games . The likes of rashford will be shattered.

Like pure said, not bothered if we get kicked out europa. I want them the beat Barcelona , I hope we smash them, we should aim to win every game, however if we don’t, there is a bit more of a silver lining than usual. One europa league loss won’t hurt when you see the bigger picture of new owners , ETH and what he is building . Especially when you see the club has no reliable strikers and CM already on their last legs .

Weird guy.
