  1. But we do need a good start against Burnley. Early three points to give confidence fir the tough home games. Sent from my Pixel using Tapatalk
  2. Three of our first four home games are Liverpool, ManU and Chelsea. Tough, but I'd say it's the best time to play them. It's not unusual for one or more if the big teams to have a slow start before they get into their stride. Way better than late on when they're fighting for every point.

  3. I'm expecting the usual genuine-looking but in fact fake and utterly wrong "leak" and day now. In reality, I'd just like a winnable game for starters, that we actually win in style. Sent from my Pixel using Tapatalk
  4. You've picked one instance which is clearly all you've seen to form a view. On the whole he was creative and positive. Agreed, not a star, but a useful squad player. Sent from my Pixel using Tapatalk

  21. I agree with the OP. In a game like last night many refs would have been too influenced by the fallout of a red card. I think it was marginal whether Silva should have seen red, but I do believe that if the same situation has arisen with a Leicester player, the outcome might well have been different. Also the lunge for which Kompany was booked was as bad as plenty that have resulted in reds in other games. I also agree with the idea that many refs have a subconscious expectation that more lowly clubs will have to foul to counter the "top" team's greater skill. There is an expectation amongst these "top" clubs that they (and particularly star players) should be given special protection which they exploit by throwing themselves to the ground at the slightest contact. It was noticeable last night that Man City were doing that a lot in the first 20 mins and getting wound up because the ref, correctly, was not automatically giving fouls. It's not a level playing field. Sent from my Pixel using Tapatalk
