POWWWW HENDO!!!! CAPTAIN MY CAPTAIN

[mdmost 43004]

Ha and I bet Thiago was about to come on for him. 

[Jive Turkey 12608]

El Capitan!

[maninblack 7974]

Henderson's best goal since Chelsea 2016

Another Maldini on the pitch to lose to Liverpool in the CL. Sweet.

Odd not to sub in a CB

That's 3

[Cheeseweasel 26438]

We'll take it. And if Atleti / Porto finishes 0-0, it's a solid day

[mdmost 43004]

Defender getting a red for Porto will be nice as we play them next.

[Firemans4Horn 18076]

Never a doubt

[Bone3421 716]

Glad the lesser lineup and mo's missed pk didn't cost us.... atletico/Porto draw was nice also

If we can manage 3 pts against them in next two matches that just about wraps up 2nd in group

Today???

What? He hit it very slightly off middle which is the easiest place to save 

I watched the replay from behind Salah and you are correct. It was way closer to the keeper than it looked like from the side angle. 

[pied06 228]

I don't think it was a terrible take.  He hit 17 in a row, so that's good but you have to switch it up sometimes to change the book on you and going center works A LOT.  

It didn't work this time and clearly wasn't great, but wasn't horrible.

[Firemans4Horn 18076]

xGOT for that shot was .94,

So 19 out 20 times a penalty hit with that speed and location it would be a goal.

Some Jurgen highlights from this morning. Bobby will return to training some time next week. Nothing new on the Mo contract front. Resting VvD is a short term strategy.

Time to see what Konate has got. 

We're Cocking it up this morning, I guess.

Let’s goooooo

[mdmost 43004]

Nice clear out by Konate. 

[Cheeseweasel 26438]

That was almost a disaster 

[maninblack 7974]

Good cross

[Cheeseweasel 26438]

Our midfield should be Thiago/ Fabinho and whoever. Those two need to be slotted in. 

[That Guy 955]

Thiago applies the most fantastic touch on his passes. He’s also a pretty solid bet to pick up a yellow in every game. 

[Cheeseweasel 26438]

Tsimi is solid. 

[That Guy 955]

Wow. What a cross. Good on hendo for putting it on target 

[mdmost 43004]

Thiago aggressiveness is a good and bad thing. I think the most likely ongoing midfield alignment is Thiago + Fabinho + Hendo. Keita's never going to press for the full time role. That's what disappointed me in not getting a new option in the window. You need someone how can push for the role. Hendo might be diminishing but man he still has fantastic moments like the strike on Wednesday.

[Cheeseweasel 26438]

Jota having a rough match. 

[Cheeseweasel 26438]

Block. Block. Block. 

[mdmost 43004]

Yeah Jota is off today. That should've been buried. 

[Cheeseweasel 26438]

Oh Jota 

[That Guy 955]

Diogo…what in the world bro?

[Cheeseweasel 26438]

That could have easily been a pen. 

[mdmost 43004]

Mane!!!!

What a heads up ball into Salah from Tsimikas. A smart play.

Sa Sa Sadio!

Boom! What were they saying about mane’s scoring record against cp?

[Cheeseweasel 26438]

Well taken

[mdmost 43004]

There's the Thiago aggressiveness that can be a problem. Giving away a bad free kick in a dangerous area.
