Havertz. Sterling. Both laughable.

Rice - bit of a pratt but respect where it's due in how he's tried to grab the game by the scruff off the neck.

Slightly surprised at how Havertz thought he wasn’t going to look utterly ridiculous claiming the “goal” came off his chest.

Has the innovation of TV cameras completely bypassed him?
 
I’m expecting nothing out of tomorrow’s game. So something, anything, will be a bonus.
Don't be disheartened Billy, for it is written in the stars.
The spirit of our departed King is going to take over the mere mortal Rasmus Hojlund and transform him into a warrior like himself. With the game in the balance a pirouette in the six yard box and the onion bag at the Stretford bulges. One arm held up the other pulling his sleeve over his hand he acknowledges the celebration.
Or maybe not!
 
Important few hours in the title race that saw a 4 point swing.

Arsenal actually looked pretty good until going 2 up, then they switched off. Havertz is a disaster, even when he scores he still ends up costing them the game with his feeble attempt at a header for Watkins goal and then the handball.

Regarding the Top 5, I'll be boring and and for;

Liverpool
Arsenal
City
Chelsea
Newcastle


Would love Forest to do it, not so Bournemouth as they're a tinpot club that only exists at that level due to breaking numerous financial rules over many years and being bailed out by a sugar daddy.

Unless City go on a monumental run in the second half of the season, I cannot see them getting into the top four. Yes they have bought and bought well, but they still have to Gel as a team and not individuals.

I thought Pep was the greatest coach ever? He's got a lot of talent to work with, despite the one injury and Walker heading off ;)

Foden looks back to his best and will be key. I just can't see City being that bad going forward, Pep will get his head straight and focus on football. City still have the second best squad in the league for me even without any signings.
 
Forest will drop off imo, hope not but it’s a long old season.
Whilst I agree it’s a long season, pundits have been saying this since November and we’ve had a 6 game winning streak in that time. Only one team EVER that has 40 points at the halfway point has finished outside the top 4, so it would have to be a spectacular drop off.

Not saying it can’t happen, as it would be the most forest thing ever, but the odds are definitely with us.
 
Ollie Watkins thinks Villa got lucky with the disallowed goal, even having seen it replayed.

Really?
I didn't see the context of what he said. Was he not just meaning that the ball could just as easily have hit another part of his body and deflected in?

Perhaps a bit lucky Trossard didn't score at the death as well
