Whilst it is early days Iraola is really impressing me at Liverpool. It was no clinic vs Chelsea last night but, getting a tough win midweek after making 7 changes to the side is a real statement. I was amazed at just how poor Chelsea were, they looked devoid of tactics in the first half, if Gakpo didn't mess his touch on the counter up about 5-6 times I think that game would have easily been settled in the 90minutes.

On a wider point that's now 5 "wins" in a row for Liverpool (wouldn't really say last night counted), with 9 wins, 3 draws and a loss in the first 13 games. This is also whilst watching a team bed in to a completely new managerial style, with plenty of injury issues and a squad that, sadly, isn't complete owing to a shameful summer window where the glaring issues were not addressed.

The difference this year appears to be mentality, a cohesive squad and the desire and willingness to dig in and fight (in no small part to Aruajo who is excellent). It is a breath of fresh air and it is nowhere near the finished article either, as Iraola stressed in his press conference last night. I have genuine optimism for this side, they fight for each other, work hard and Iraola, unlike Slot, is willing to trust his fringe players allowing for effective rotation.

We still have Leoni, Bradley, Frimpong, Szoboszlai, Ekitike and Munoz to be added to the squad from last night too. I think come the January window an additional tenacious midfielder would really help out this current group and raise the level even further.

Considering the league I think a top 3 finish is very realistic, hopefully a good run in the UCL and a Cup win to add to that also. Arsenal on Sunday will be the biggest test yet, let's see how we fare against the current champions. If we win, then maybe it is time to get excited?

29 Oct 2026 09:08:52
Nice summary.
In my opinion, we need another left-back and two central midfielders, and then we have a really excellent team. The players look MUCH fitter, like they actually give a damn again, and the three 100m signings are showing signs of real potency.
Also, aside from the improved tactics and effort, Iraola certainly comes across as a man players can trust and would fight for.

Agree6

29 Oct 2026 09:15:54
We definitely need 2 new full backs and a centre mid. Can't see all 3 happening in January, though hope we can get Camara in.

Just to say, fair play to MK Scouser for his take on Nyoni before the start of the season. I couldn't see much in the player, but it looks like MK called it right. I've not seen him on here for a while, so hope he's alright.

Agree9

29 Oct 2026 09:49:28
I echo those sentiments Rome! Hope you're doing well MK scouser šŸ™.

CFC is what happens when a bunch of mercenaries are put together.
The human qualities of players are as important as their physical capabilities.

Agree0

29 Oct 2026 12:00:19
The great thing is we can all see where this team needs upgrades. I just hope the directors do too.

We just don't have the midfielders or technical level at fullback to establish control of games. That will have to be addressed in the market.

Tactically, still some work to do to improve the coordination and consistency of the first press from the forwards.

Most importantly, the squad seems happy and the connection with fans is growing. Collecting moments like last night will help everyone no end.

Agree0

29 Oct 2026 12:35:50
You were amazed by how poor Chelsea were but you were impressed by our performance even though we only managed a 1-1 draw in 90 mins and won on penalties. I find it difficult to understand that. I like the rest of the post though, very much agree.

Agree0

29 Oct 2026 08:17:59
It's a hard one with Grav. McAllister was awful last season, but I would argue our best midfielder this season. It's always a balance about how much time we as fans give players to turn things around. My major concern in the squad is left back.

Tsimikas was AWFUL last night and has been for far too long. It means Kerkez has no pressure on him. As stated above I want to give him time but it's painful watching him try to do anything in the oppo's half.

29 Oct 2026 08:48:49
In fairness most of the squad were awful during signifcant patches last season. Not sure Macca can carry the can for the season.

Agree2

29 Oct 2026 08:50:01
Gravenberch was well off it again last night. You knew when he stepped up for that pen he was missing it as well. Not sure what's happening with this lad.

Agree5

29 Oct 2026 08:55:11
Tsimikas might not be the best footballer, but even if he plays 1/3rd of Kerkez's minutes, he will still have may more assists and proper chances created than him. His crossing is genuinely very good most of the time, while Kerkez is remarkably poor. In his 15 months, I genuinely can't remember more than two good crosses from him.

Agree4

29 Oct 2026 09:54:40
Kerkez is not a Liverpool full back. He's been sub standard but his delivery and final balls have been awful. If the club get a top LB in Kerkez is destined for the bench.

He's escaped soo much criticism because of his effort but the lad is a weak link in the back line and in no world does he look like he should be the permant lb for us for years to come.

Agree3

29 Oct 2026 12:21:35
These players are thankful for your support..You'll Always Walk Alone..

Agree0

29 Oct 2026 08:00:43
Get Ajaujo signed asap, I literally cannot believe how brilliant he is, he looks like he's loving life here as well, sometimes it just works and this is one of those times.

29 Oct 2026 09:35:31
He gives us fight and aggression, which I think passes through the team.

Agree3

29 Oct 2026 12:38:48
100%, he's exactly the type of player we've been missing, if we could get one more of him to play DM we would be formidable.

Agree2

Matchday 8 - Quick Round Up

29 Oct 2026 07:39:01
{Ed's Note - Ed001 has posted a new article entitled, Matchday 8 - Quick Round Up

29 Oct 2026 07:49:11
Thanks Ed great round up. Really enjoy reading these.

Agree3

{Ed001's Note - cheers Tim!

29 Oct 2026 11:22:49
Nice read, Ed. Regarding Palmer, it was an absolute disgrace that he did not get sent off the first time after banging his thigh into Fernandez's head why still on the ground and got the yellow instead.

As for our result, I thought we took the fight to them from the off and Brighton wasn't ready for it. We were on the front foot, aggressive in transition and got the ball forward quickly every time we got. This is because Brighton committed 6/7 bodies forward, which left them short at the back which made them vulnerable when they lost the ball.

We played well, were dogged out of possession and BHA couldn't break us down. We let them have the ball while at the same time controlling the game as in, dictating where Brighton would pass it into areas which wouldn't hurt us. It was possession for nothing, really for Brighton.

Geat perf. and hats off to the players and Iraola, esp.

Agree1

{Ed001's Note - thanks Oli.}

28 Oct 2026 22:59:13
A win is a win. Next round at home to Bournemouth will be tough as they are in real form, but its a great chance to go to the semifinals. Man City home to Bradford, of course they are, was going to be them of Fleetwood. Mind you with a bit of luck that will be a league game for them next season.

29 Oct 2026 00:38:08
Very entertaining again, a shoot out and Joey scores the winner and we move on to a cup QF. I await the usual update on who had a bad game, why they had a bad game and how soon they should be sold.

In the meantime, I enjoyed another entertain match with the penalty shot out a great piece of drama and it's . Bring on Arsenal.

Agree11

29 Oct 2026 06:19:43
I thought it was a decent performance that was a really competitive game both teams just lacked that but of quality in the final third.
I love Araujo and Nyoni looked a baller, the kid has class.

Agree4

29 Oct 2026 06:44:26
I haven't been so excited by a penalty shootout in a long time. Since the last time (which was against Chelsea too), in fact. People were asking why Tsimikas took the 5th penalty? The only thing i can think of, was that he was 5th in the last shootout too and won it for us.

The game was bleh. I could comment on Iraola's team selection but I'd rather keep quiet and let him do his thing. He knows best. And we won.

Agree5

29 Oct 2026 07:35:17
Tsimikas Was captin a few games ago so he has obviously stepped up to be counted. He's not the best player in the world but he clearly love the club.

Agree7

29 Oct 2026 08:53:08
Chelsea keeper was trying to play mind games by delaying the kicks and i actually loved Tsimikas cockiness by juggling the ball, unfortunately he then skied the pen. Bigger and betetr players have missed pens well before him.

I'm more concerned over his performances to date this season rather than a missed pen in a shoot out. If he had scored it then i'd still be concerned.

He clearly loves the club but i fully see him, Endo and Chiesa moving on sooner rather than later to create more non homegrown spaces.

Agree6

28 Oct 2026 19:21:20
Endo and Chiesa can't even get a start in the Carabao Cup. This is why you can't just take a punt on a player no matter how cheap they might be. If it doesn't work out you can be stuck with them for years.

28 Oct 2026 19:33:24
In fairness to Endo he's started 44 games in his time at the club and is on significantly lower wages to Chiesa who has managed 9 starts.

Chiesa has 51 appearances though and 1, 185 mins so the equivalent of 13 games and Endo has 87 appearances and 4, 079 minutes so the equivalent of 45 games.

Agree7

28 Oct 2026 21:56:36
They must be so far off the pace in training to be overlooked tonight.

Agree4

28 Oct 2026 22:29:26
It's a competition we have a rich history in, against a premier team who don't have Europe to worry about, so was always going to be a difficult tie. Stop fretting about squad players, I'm sure they'll be fine.

Agree3

28 Oct 2026 23:18:41
If Camara and Minteh were to come in the winter transfer window for example, endo and chiesa could be replaced from the non home grown limit of 17 players? for the two new winter transfer signings, two out, two in? Two signings in the January Transfer Window could make all the difference, together with Hugo, what a statement that would send out?

Strange tonight that Chelsea only had enough players for 7 substitutes on the bench, while LFC had the full quota of 9 players on the bench?

YNWA Andoni.

Agree2

29 Oct 2026 00:39:47
Some of the extended Chelsea squad couldn't make it as it's a school day tomorrow.

Agree6

29 Oct 2026 06:52:19
It's half term, WDW šŸ˜‚.

Agree4

29 Oct 2026 07:50:47
Ah, not where I am at @Rigsby. My mistake šŸ™‚.

Agree2

28 Oct 2026 19:19:53
Good line up but I want to see Araujo at CB. I want to see how he fares in his natural position.

28 Oct 2026 19:27:33
BBC Sport think he is. They have Araujo at CB with Virg and JoGo at RB, so you may get your wish!

Agree3

28 Oct 2026 19:27:54
You are aware he played CB in the champs league? Andoni subbed him and other CB off and we started conceding goals.

Agree2

28 Oct 2026 19:42:19
Hopefully zed because it may show us whether he will be worth the fee or now. I think we need to see him play CB domestically a good few times to see what we really have on our hands.
Full metal. I'm aware.

Agree0

28 Oct 2026 20:05:49
To be fair, we have paid £30m and £45m on full backs in the last 2 windows. Paying £47m (or lower as Ed0666 is confident we will negotiate a lower fee) on a RB who is proven in our team and is also a top level CB wouldn't put me off.

Agree4

28 Oct 2026 20:57:10
Zeddicus and have they been good enough?
Frimpong will be moved on and Kerkez needs serious competition.

Agree1

29 Oct 2026 04:56:04
Endo made a very important contribution and as well worth signing. Granted he wasn't first choice and wasn't exactly a spring chicken when we bought him, but we'd have been in a much worse position if we didn't sign him. He's been good

Chiesa hasn't worked out. But he had a good song and it was fun for a bit

Spent 25 mill on the 2 of them combined. We will live.

Agree0

29 Oct 2026 13:07:52
Ron, my point was we have spent this money on full backs (and don't even start on how much Cheaty spent a few years back on multiple full backs all at higher prices) that either haven't worked out (like Frimpong) and where the jury is still out (Kerkez - he's got every opportunity to improve as he's now working with the manager who turned him into a £45-£50m full back).

So spending up to £47m on a player who has really impressed as a RB (even if he could't play as a top level CB as well, thus flexibility) isn't an issue for me. It's kinda the market rate these days, unless you want to take a bit of a gamble and/or have space for special case Work Permit.

Agree0

28 Oct 2026 11:05:29
There is so much praise on the site about Araujo and well deserved. However I still think the best signing for us has to be Jeremy Jacquet. He has the potential to be a superstar and take over the mantle of VVD.

28 Oct 2026 11:19:17
Jacquet's performances have been of a very high level.

Pesonally i don't think all of Araujo's performances have been good but his effort levels and how he wears his heart on his sleeve deserves all the praise he is getting.

Agree14

28 Oct 2026 11:31:07
There's no doubt about Jacquet's quality he's been superb.
There will be tougher times ahead. At some point a weakness will be targeted and he will have to deal with that and overcome it.
I'm sure he can, but he will have tougher times and we must not get down on him, he will need support.

Agree8

28 Oct 2026 11:45:41
I was advocating to sign him over Guehi in January but I had no idea he was this good. He's so mature for his age and his awareness of danger is a breath of fresh air. The way he's telling his team mates where to be, how he reads the forward's presses and the intention he puts on his forward passes. Brilliant so far!

If Leoni and Ndukwe can follow Jacquet's example, we are so spoiled at CB.

Agree15

28 Oct 2026 12:02:04
Jaquet has been more impressive for me. He is more in control. Araujo gets the crowd up with his tackles but if one is even slightly mistimed he's a walking red.

Agree6

28 Oct 2026 12:13:54
Araujo, Jacquet, Leoni (assuming he fully recovers from his injury) and Ndukwe all look like absolutely brilliant signings (plus we signed other very highly rated youngsters) and the latter 3 could all play for us for the next decade! I'm starting to get excited about the potential rather than fearing the worst about what will happen post VVD.

Agree6

28 Oct 2026 12:55:46
I think we should all write to the club and request that they do all that they can to get Richard Hughes back.

Agree8

28 Oct 2026 13:14:03
Both have impressed me massively. Extremely happy with both.

I was worried about Araujo when he signed because his form had dipped and he was very injury prone.

I pray the injuries stay away. Still a worry for me.

But on the form side, he has bounced right back to his best in our system. I did not expect such an immediate bounce. He just seems to be a character that feeds off love and fans. We give him that, I think he would be willing to die out there for us. He is without doubt an emotional trigger in the team. Amazing start and looking like an absolute bargain.

Agree4

28 Oct 2026 13:32:50
Jacquet is absolute class, he is almost always in the right place every single time, and even when he gets beat he has the pace to recover and get goalside to intervene. He is always looking to play the ball forward, and has the skill to fizz one to feet, he is great in the air, plus he can carry the ball if you need him to.

The guy is always in control, he always looks like he knows exactly what he is doing.

Agree5

28 Oct 2026 14:25:25
Can you imagine if we got a world class LB and number 6 😱 we'd be set for years.

Agree3

28 Oct 2026 14:32:01
We should do one of our polls. Put up his list of signings(16 names I seen the other day)and posters can yay or nay on each name and we get a percentage like Rotten Tomatoes. I think it would be a surprisingly high percentage.

Agree1

{Ed033's Note - For a poll, i need a question and the possible voting options.

28 Oct 2026 16:07:45
FM, I am not sure ranking/rating the signings made would tell the whole Richard Hughes story which also includes priority positions being ignored, player profiles not matching the coach's tactics and fluffing a few deals due dithering.

Agree1

28 Oct 2026 16:18:03
Well this summer we got a CB, a CB that can play RB. Speedy hardworking wingers as well. MF was the one balls up but then plenty of fans were happy with our options. Guehi was unlucky for me and we should have got Semenyo if we could. But no club gets everything perfect.

I'd imagine as far as signings go if we did a poll with a list of the 16 players and told people to erase the names they were not happy with a lot of people would still have double figures left. Thats not too bad surely.

Agree1

28 Oct 2026 16:31:00
Also proves I-Boo Konate was conning the LFC supporters for a whole season and even worse getting selected every week also for nothing of defensive merit.

He even took an LFC defensive record with him when his good riddance arrived, last season was the worst defensive record for goals conceded in a "Premier League" season at 53 goals for LFC.

YNWA Andoni.

Agree2

28 Oct 2026 16:32:07
I post a lot of stuff just to agitate. However, in the case of Hughes, a lot of the stick he got was over the top and unjustified. Some of it was valid. Some of it was because there are a few on here who are like sheep and like to follow the flock.

Agree3

{Ed666's Note - in my eyes he failed because he didn’t build a squad he accumulated players. There’s a distinction.

28 Oct 2026 16:33:45
Just think we nearly bought Yoro.

Agree2

{Ed666's Note - Bullet dodged.

28 Oct 2026 16:42:56
I actually think if Yoro had come to us it would have been different for him. Was doing ok for United until his"captain"threw him under the bus vs City last season. Still very young, I think there's a player there.

Agree0

{Ed666's Note - I think JJ is twice the player. So glad we didn’t get him.

28 Oct 2026 16:51:09
I think Yoro's a decent player.

Agree0

28 Oct 2026 17:02:30
I think Yoro is a good player too. He was badly advised and now has to stick it out in that s-hole of a club.

In case anyone is in doubt, Hughes was throwing random bids in for Ismaila Sarr at the end of the window. :)

Agree4

28 Oct 2026 17:10:55
JJ is definitely better. But then JJ looks like he could end up another Saliba so far. So your talking the top top end of CB's. Yoro is indeed a bit below maybe but think he will still end up having a fine career.

Agree0

28 Oct 2026 17:33:13
Ed0666, he didn't address areas where we are weak, that is for sure. However, in the case of Jacquet, Munoz and Araujo he needs commending. In the case of Wirtz, only time will tell. In the case of Barcola and Isak, I think we're slowly getting there.

No Sporting Director gets it right all the time.

Agree0

{Ed666's Note - Mate he spent 700 million British pounds and we’re still short of a midfielder, right winger and a right back. For me that’s criminal and unforgivable.

28 Oct 2026 18:39:47
I'm playing devil's advocate here, Ed. Could it have been that in the case of centre mid, Iraola wanted to look at what we had? In the case of RB we've got Bradley, Frimpong, Gomez and Araujo. In the case of right winger we've got Barcola, Gakpo, Munoz and Rio, who Iraola likes to interchange. Therefore, we don't need a specific right winger.

I don't necessarily agree with what I'm saying, but I'm putting forward a case for why we started the season with what we've got.

Agree1

{Ed666's Note - we tried signing Minteh so we did go in for a right winger. I think Rio doing a job on the right has been luck rather than design..As long as we get a midfielder in Jan and I think we’ll get Camara I’ll be happy. Then we can renovate in the summer. We don’t need that much for us to be a squad to challenge on all fronts next season.

28 Oct 2026 18:56:57
I enjoy these debates, Ed.

I'd love us to get Camara in January, as well.

Agree3

{Ed666's Note - I love you to buttercup

28 Oct 2026 19:05:03
..xx.

Agree2

28 Oct 2026 19:00:43
We should do a poll on our first boyhood crushes. Mine were Pamela Anderson and Carmen Electra. That way you could vote for Slot and Richard Hughes mate.

Agree3

28 Oct 2026 19:15:40
Jaclyn Smith (Charlies Angels) and Jenny Hanley (Magpie).

My right wrist as always been twice the size of my left, ever since.

Agree2

28 Oct 2026 20:54:49
Now now JK. Certain people forbid the use of the name Slot. You'll get a telling off.

Agree1

29 Oct 2026 00:45:23
@666, perhaps AI saw the potential for Rio having an impact on the right? AI's job title is a bit of a giveaway. Seems a bit more plausible that a new coach arrives and Rio's starting taking steps in fulfilling the potential he had / has or maybe it was a lucky coincidence šŸ˜‰.

Agree0

{Ed666's Note - A bit of both maybe?

29 Oct 2026 07:54:14
First crush poll would have to include Trent.

Agree0

28 Oct 2026 10:30:53
Starting lineup predictions for tonight?

I think it'll be

Marma
Araujo Gomez Jacquet Tsimikas
Nyoni McConnell
Rio Mac Munoz
Koumas

Maybe Endo could potentially play at CB or RB?

Would like to see Araujo get a rest tbh.

28 Oct 2026 10:59:23
I'd put out a strong team, win the game. Sub tired players off during the game. We don't play again until Sunday.
• next round is the QF.
• next opponents from:

- Bradford
- Fleetwood
- 114 City or Brighton
- Bournemouth or Villa
- Fulham or Palace
- Sunderland or Brentford
- Everton or Newcastle

A win here, a favourable QF draw and suddenly you're in a 2 legged SF.

Agree8

28 Oct 2026 11:00:20
Is Szob fit?
He might use Gomez at rb and Endo at cb.
I would be tempted to give both Jacquet and Araujo a half at cb each, I think they both need a rest.
Will Munoz be fit to play?

Agree0

28 Oct 2026 11:11:24
Munoz will not be in the squad at all. I expect Gakpo to start up front in place of Isak.

Agree3

28 Oct 2026 11:25:05
Chelsea aren't in Europe so won't be going weak and despite suggestions they are having an awful season are only 1 place and 2 points off Liverpool who aren't having an awful season.

Too many changes and not taking this seriously will likely result in Chelsea being in the QF draw sadly.

Personally i hope AI boxes clever with this and goes quite strong (sorry Taurus mate but stronger than what you suggest) because Sunday is also a massive game.

Agree3

28 Oct 2026 11:38:15
Agree with Ron

Get into the last 8 and a favourable draw could open things up for us?

Agree2

28 Oct 2026 12:04:24
I'd love to go as strong as possible. Win tonight and we have a great chance in this Competition.

Agree3

{Ed666's Note - I hope we go as weak as possible

28 Oct 2026 12:17:08
Mama
Gomez, Araujo, Jacquet, Tsimi
Nyoni, Macca, Grav
Rio, Koumas, Gakpo.

Agree3

28 Oct 2026 12:51:14
I would like a strong team but I think the schedule has been so packed lately that some players need a rest to prevent injury being risked.

The main ones being Jacquet and Araujo. Maybe Macca too.

Agree1

{Ed666's Note - rest em all and play the kids

28 Oct 2026 12:58:26
We've absolutely got to have the mindset of winning every competition we enter. There can be no other way. But, and it's a big but, player management is a crucial aspect of it, as everyone knows. Somehow find the right balance and player selections from the squad of 25.

Chelsea is not going to let us walk over them. So Iraola should choose his players accordingly.

Agree1

28 Oct 2026 13:01:55
don't think I've read anywhere that Chelsea are having an awful season? , they are just hit and miss which was expected.

Agree1

28 Oct 2026 13:17:39
Id go

Marma
Araujo. JJ. VVD. Tsimikas.
Nyoni. Macca
Rio. Wirtz Barcola.
Gakpo.

Id hold Isak back. Still worried on the injury front and overloading him.

I think we need to go strong.

Agree3

28 Oct 2026 13:40:16
Iraola could be damned if he does and damned if he doesn't.

Imagine if he goes strong and Jaquet or Araujo gets injured? Or both. He'd be criticised for playing them in a nothing competition and jeopardising our league form.

Then if he plays the kids and loses (like Slot did last season) he'll be criticised for disrespecting the fans who have made the effort to go to the stadium.

That's the problem when you get a tough draw at this stage of the competition. You can't go too weak because you'll get hammered but you don't want to risk losing key players to injury.

I think he'll do a bit of both and be guided by the sports science people as to who needs a rest. I'd much rather start strong and make subs than start weak and bring big hitters on later but then the ideal scenario is to rest them and end up not needing them at all.

It's a tough balancing act tonight.

Agree3

28 Oct 2026 16:50:10
No Palmer (Suspension) Martinez the first choice goal keeper had an operation for a fractured jaw on the 18 October so he's out, Pedro centre forward has a thigh injury and is also out for a couple of weeks, alonso said in his press conference yesterday. Three big players missing? a halfy/halfy strong team for LFC, big hitters on the bench if reqd for a cameo?

Little known wily old fox Sir Bill Shankly used to watch the players of opposing teams get off the team coach at anfield, to see who had not travelled on the official team bus? Sir Bill was using AI (common sense) circa 70 years ago, where have you all been! The warming up sessions on the pitch was also an indicator, now they don't warm up on the pitch before the official team sheets are both with the referee.

YNWA Andoni

YNWA Andoni.

Agree0

28 Oct 2026 13:06:58
Why weak as possible Ed? I'd understand the decision to rest Virg or give Jaquet/Araujo 45mins each. Maybe take Macca and Isak outa the starting lineup but apart from that go strong as possible. Get through this game and Sunday then make wholesale changes, the whole 11 for all I care in Europe next week.

{Ed666's Note - because I think we have a real chance of challenging for the title and Sunday is a must win game. I don’t want to risk any of our big game players being injured or lethargic because of it. If we put out a severely weakened team against Chelsea and we lost I wouldn’t lose any sleep. But if we played a strong team today and as a result any of our players were injured and our starting 11 was weak on Sunday I’d be livid.

How you doing Ed666?

Any chance of an Allez Allez Allez pod sometime soon?

{Ed666's Note - Hey mate all good how are you? Yes we’re doing a pod after the Arsenal game on Sunday. Don’t expect an award winning podcast tho because I’ll be out the night before so my apologies in advance for the quality or lack of 🤣

That's fair enough. Just think with the teams that would be out if we beat Chelsea we'd have a great chance at Andoni's first silverware. Imagine we get hammered with a shell side out and City go out to Brighton. we'd be kicking ourselves.

{Ed666's Note - I’d rather win the title than the PG Tips cup or whatever it’s called now

Thing is though, a weakened team could get gubbed by Chelsea and that will hit confidence for the weekend.

I'm always in the "win the next game" boat, whatever happens in the one after is unpredictable.
Some players get injured or more fatigued by extra training.
Win this game then worry about Arsenal.

Totally appreciate Ed666's point, I just feel differently.

{Ed666's Note - I think this is one where we’ll have to agree to disagree mate.

Five wins in the last five games, perhaps we should have a bit of faith in the coach and squad and let the opposition worry about us? We are progressing nicely. We are far from where we'll be in 12 or 18 months and (as ever) the current squad needs some work, RB, CM and RW but not, perhaps, quite as urgently as some would have us believe.

All good here Ed666 cheers. Getting ready to freeze my tits off for the next 6 months but could be worse.

Looking forward to the pod!

{Ed666's Note - Talking about tits Ed’s 001 has the finest set I’ve ever seen..He’d make Katie Price feel inadequate!!

He better give us a flash on the video for the next pod 666 ;)

{Ed666's Note - His bountiful mamaries are for my eyes only. Get your own Humpty Dumpty mate!!!
