It’s not what people want to hear but honestly I don’t think we’re even close to Liverpool, but that’s nothing to be ashamed of.
I actually think its the other way around. We too could have given Palace a whopping if Jose had allowed us to play more expansive. They were there for the taking.
In context, it's a must-not-lose. We can collect points against weaker teams to come. This is the last match of a demanding sequence of six fixtures where we have already banked two wins, two draws and a loss. If we can come out of that with a positive record, we can move on from there.
I see it as potentially season defining. Even more so now, after the Palace game. If we had won that, I feel like the Pool result was borderline irrelevant. So now, we bookend this six game maelstrom with the Foxes and for me, it is paramount for the squad’s confidence that we win. It also sends a signal to other teams. We gave Liverpool a game, that very easily could have flipped the other way. We beat Vardy and Co. I think it cements us as a force with staying power... and that does have a psychological impact on other teams. We lose, and that is 1 point out of 9. Blood in the water. We look vulnerable and ready for a full on wobble. We need teams to fear us. Losing this game will undue a lot of good work that we achieved so far. It also impacts the Stoke game too. We win on Sunday, I believe Tues will be a stroll. We lose, this looks like a banana skin.
good grief, Charlie Brown. Missed the snap again. Egats. Mea culpa.
I agree. Palace looked shaky under pressure and comfy on the attack. We looked increasingly fragmented under pressure but composed when attacking. So obviously we should have kept the pressure on.
Have you heard about Liverpool?
