Do Sky give pro rated refunds??

Make some half arsed excuse about your app not working but your broadband being fine. Always worked for me

No changes, surprise surprise.

Let’s wait until the inevitable 80th minute Arsenal goal to bother changing anything.

God forbid trying to win the game.

Well, I was fully expecting us to employ the same approach as at Man City but we just haven't.

Very odd formation and way of playing. I guess 0-0 at half time is a good result considering.

Justin and Fuchs on the left worries me no end though.

You couldn’t see that from the selection before the game?

 

[Graz]

I think our first change (assuming we don't want to bring Vardy on early) will be Ünder for Praet or Maddison

Praet hasn't been as good today as recently and it would give us more pace to break with.

Yellow for Fofana

Tielemans and Praet have been so bad tonight..

 

[Blue Maniac]

What time’s kick off?

This is absolute ****ing garbage.

Like watching a promoted team trying not to lose

Comple shit

 

[TornadoShaunUK]

Arsenal do seem to be getting a bit frustrated now..

 

[City Fan]

Three shots for us so far tonight:

Maddison from 30 yards
Maddison from 35 yards
Maddison from 40 yards

 

[Jeff]

Vardy's replaced Praet

 

[City Fan]

Bored

 

[Jeff]

Yellow for Maddison

 

[Graz]

Glad we've got Vardy on.

Wonder if we will go for it in final 15/20 mins or just keep at this?

Don’t be silly.

Garbage.

Brain dead tactics. System is an abomination

Away to the 'big six' last season:

Chelsea 1-1 D
Man Utd 1-0 L
Liverpool 2-1 L
Man City 3-1 L
Arsenal 1-1 D
Spurs 3-0 L

BR has clearly looked at those results and decided that we have to play these matches differently. So far, we have 3 points from the first of these games, so we're already ahead of the total from last season.

I'm critical when it is the right thing to do but today our approach is better than trying to go 'toe to toe' as we did last season and usually failed.

 

[Graz]

Don’t be silly.

If we do and win, it's Tactical genius from Rodgers

 

[homer]

Bringing on Under but taking off Barnes ???

Insane

 

[popillius]

And it is performances like that which make it easy for me to keep saying that Praet isn't all that. He was hopeless again today.

Tidy, neat but rarely brilliant.
