Winks is the business...Skipp is nowhere near ready to start league games...It's not even comparable.Better to play Skipp there than Dele

We don't NEED to win, as in if we don't win, we won't qualify for the CL next year. That is horseshit. A draw would be ok. So calm your tits, love.
It was a response to the people saying they didn't give a fuck. And a win would almost 100% get us top 4 so we.might not need to win but it would take pressure of us going into games like West Ham and Everton so it would be really fucking nice
Their players won't recover until next week, draw or Spurs win
Our last 4 are not easy. Brighton fighting for their lives, Bournemouth are an excellent side and they're at home, west ham always turn up for us, Everton just beat Woolwich recently (also drew with Liverpool and Chelsea) and are going for the last European spot. None of those are incredibly favourable, especially with CL semi final ties, and half a team fit. We need to play our strongest side. Having said that, city will be out for revenge and we will be cooked after this morning, so I think they'll probably hammer us unfortunatelyCouldn’t give a toss for this game if we lose 10-0 I will still walk out with a big smug grin - win our last 4 after this and we will be assured cl next season
But they have a much stronger squad and we have a huge injury problem, so they are still in the much better position physically speaking. Mentally, they will be fired up to get revenge and also to make sure they don't fuck up the league since it's now their only big prize for the season. I think this will be an even tougher challenge for us on paper than last night was. I don't even know what kind of midfield we are sending out there, Skipp and Foyth...?I don't think our players will either.
Yesterday was draining for us. Imagine what it was like for them!
The thing is City will go to Utd needing to win - I think both City and Liverpool could well win every game left so they will need every point. United will almost certainly lose points (Chelsea and City to play) and Chelsea likewise with Utd to play, and Leicester away last game. Woolwich are the only team to really threaten our top 4 position and they have Wolves, Leicester and Burnley away (their away form is shite). So whatever result on Saturday, I see top 4 still a real probability for us.Bizarre this game. Bear with me.
A win is obviously the best result for us but if not then we need to lose but by a small margin.
We need City to go into the United match with the title still in their hands amd giving their all so taking a point from City is fine but I am not 100% sure it is exactly the best for us in the long term..
Will be very interesting what team Pochettino puts out because we have Brighton on Tuesday, which is the game we would expect to win.
76 points is the target I have in my head to get us into the top 4 via the PL.

Not for meWinks is the business...Skipp is nowhere near ready to start league games...It's not even comparable.
Dele over Skipp in CM any day of the week.
Mauricio could play himself and Toni, we could have a record loss, and no one would care. After today, it’s all gravy.We're gonna get battered. But does anyone care?
This game is a freebie. Battered by injury. Inevitable hangover and a City looking for revenge.
Players like Skipp and KWP should play to give them experience and whilst I don't write off a result, it's unlikely. So let's treat it as such and play with freedom and peace of mind that it's our other PL games that will help us secure top 4. Maybe said freedom will help us.
Brighton on Tuesday and West Ham next week are much bigger games where we have to get results.

If we scramble a draw, I'll be happy but expect a 3-1 loss. At least it'll fuck the Dippers I suppose.
