We're guaranteed to be still in Europe though. We can't now finish bottom of our group so at least a place in the Europa Conference Thingee knockout stage is now assured.
Happy days!
Our PL season is now 7 games in - what's going on?

3 days! Bloody hell, that feels far too long for a football match... Why have they changed it from 90 minutes?

Pretty sure they all feel like 3 days at the minute. I've taken to listening to audio books throughout games, just to help me through them.

It's fair to say that there is more excitement and action in this one minute video than our entire season so far.

Comment from BR on our slow starts:
“I think it’s something that goes back, that predates my time coming in,” Rodgers said. “That was something that was mentioned about the team.
“You go into a game and your idea and your principles are to create a plan that’s based around the clarity and idea of how you want to work, which we give the players.
“You’ve got to maintain that mentality to attack the game, and that’s something that we need to have a look at. Our way is to impose our style into the game and that’s something we have to be better at.
“It shouldn’t need a spark, either from the manager at half-time, or for something to happen in the game, in order to create that. That’s something we have to continually talk on, something we have done, but we have to continually repeat that message".
I think he's basically admitting that this is a problem that he's been unable to properly address in three years.

“This is a problem that existed before I got here and in 34 months I’ve done nothing to fix it.”
There, one sentence.
There, one sentence.
But I'm not even convinced that is true. I'm not sure this has been a chronic problem at the club.

No, I’m not either, it sounds made up. That’s what he seems to be saying though.
