The Football.....

Always on the cards. There's a spirit running through this club that makes it an unstoppable machine. If we lose one player, there's one determined to be better gnashing his teeth to take his place.

Given their injury list, further extended tonight by Keita, their current run of form is astonishing. They'd probably be well advised to go shopping in January, just in case…

Liverpool just need to keep Milner fit. The guy is unbelievable in his versatility and ability. I've admired him since I first saw him play for Newcastle. He just doesn't seem to age, and gets better and better.

An interesting fact.
Jota has now scored more goals at home, this season, than the whole ManU team.
Gives me no pleasure to say that of course

Agree with you 100%......he is a machine.

No shopping - just in case or anything. If it's not broke, don't fix it. He's got enough trouble keeping the players he has got motivated when they're spending months sat on the bench.

It is a very difficult balance I think.
I look at teams like City and their £gazillions sitting on the bench and wonder how they motivate them. I imagine most players, even on £100K a week want to play.

I'm not a fan of Mourinho but there's no denying that he knows what he's doing and has made Spurs, if not favourites, at least contenders, for the PL.

Saw this comment and it made me laugh. 😃😁

Liverpool were dreadful last night.
TBH, when I saw the lineup I said we will get beaten.
Too many changes in one go. The back four did their best but had no cohesion (WoW, my big word of the day)

i agree......for me neco williams was playing more as a winger than a RB and constantly gave the ball away. but the all round team performance was poor, but its the first game we lost since losing our 2 main CB's, so not half bad really

Our passing in general was awful.
IMO the only thing that kept us in the game for so long was the opposition's passing was also bad.

totally........and not a single shot on goal either, just poor all round really

The only good thing is, we must surely get better before Brighton H
