The secret to winning is clearly to put a shit side out With three front line defenders I had little choice. I thought bolox to it, no defenders, let's go all out attack. 433 A and because they went behind early they turned their C to an A and it was a really open free flowing game. 9 goals so the fans were treated to a bit of a classic.
A very welcome win going into the DPT semi where we still have two of our best players out so we will be up against it. But we do welcome back Lenglet at least.

Leicester City 1-1 Barnsley

We thought Neil would change from P, but we didn't expect a C. We went down (of course) but a tactic change helped us get back into it. Then inexplicably we went back to P to get countered for the majority of the rest of the game. We will take the draw, which doesn't bring us closer to Leicester but brings us closer to Sheffield United who we must defeat shortly.... GG Neil. All the best.

Manchester City 2 - 0 Aston Villa

We tried playing Manchester City on the Counter attack for more than half of this game and to be honest barely laid a glove on them, in fact our overall performance on the day was very disappointing. We can and must perform better than what we have done today even against the top teams. I can only apologise to our dedicated supporters after todays events.

No complaints from me, as were well beaten here.A lazy sheet from me, and duly punished by an in form Burnley side.Well played.

West Ham 2 - 1 Stoke City

A few players out and a few coming in Friday meant we had to switch up the starting 11. We were looking solid despite being on the back foot until I changed to a tactic that gave the home side TA and with them using A all game meant we took too many shots against to keep them out.

We did pull one back but it was too much for a full come back. Most of the teams around us dropped points too so not too bad of a result. We need to get back to winning ways Thursday though.

Good game Todd.

Leicester 1-1 Barnsley

Oooh, a point a last. Though disappointed we didn't do better.
As Tony said, we thought we needed to change things up, and things looked hopeful for a while, but same old, same old
It was a fairly even game mind, so gg Tony
Some decent abs had, must be due a win soon!

Tottenham 1-1 MANCHESTER UNITED

Boring game, again we couldn't keep hold of a lead.... again.

Not much to go on with this one, another feeble performance but we're fully fit for our biggest game of the season so there's a positive in there somewhere.

We knew this run of games would be tough and it's proven that.

Arsenal 3 - 1 Blackburn Rovers

Well I think its fair to say we got lucky with this three points as we were far from at our best in this game. With Blackburn struggling this season, Im sure Ryan will be frustrated that his side never got the win that their performance deserved because were not at the races but dug deep to get a vital win that now sees us just one point behind Spurs which is good going because the gap was eight points not so long ago.

All about keeping the pressure on the sides above us now, next up is the second leg of the Champions League which we have no chances of progressing through after a poor first leg so it will be a chance to keep players away from suspension ahead of the Villa game in round 32.

Played Ryan, you deserved a lot more than that mate.
