Thinking on Utd, a few weeks back we were thinking if he would last past the summer.

Now with eight consecutive wins the better point might be, is he the new Zidane?

He barely faced anyone and scrapped tricky wins vs spuds and le arse (not gonna complain though haha) ... Now granted, manure actually play football. But I reckon it wont be enough against sihtty or dippers. Also, in the UCL, despite Neymar's injury, PSG might actually pull a mourinho on them with a focus on defending and using mbappé pace for deadly counters ... at least in the first leg. But who knows I guess ...

Actually, I feel more confident facing manure now than under mourinho ... They will space to attack but will press hard too ! But then, if we display what we did vs spuds in the LC semi (both legs actually) and that we don't get shafted by the refs (), I can fancy us winning and advancing. However, ferbruary will be heavy : 2 games vs sihtty, one in the PL and the LC final; the FA Cup 5th round vs manure; the UEL RO32 vs Malmö; the derby vs the spuds to finish ferbruary + 2 more games in the PL : Bournemouth away and Huddersfield town at home. 3 competitions at stake in ferbruary : the FA, the LC for the title and the UEL with a UCL spot at stake. Priorities will be key in this month. Imo, a rotated team should do the job vs Malmö and should guarantee a spot in the RO16 of the UEL. As for the rest, we will certainly need to field the best possible squad ! Also Sihtty will have one more day of rest than us before the LC final since they'll play UCL on Wednesday and us the following day.

I think it is a mixed bag against Utd now, offensively much better defensively largely untested. Like you say Liverpool, City or us might well give puncture their balloon yet we must wait and see.

Certainly agree February for us is massive.

Watching the Milan game vs Napoli. The f**k has happened to Bakayoko? He looks so much better. Also, that Piatek lad with two goals tonight. Maybe we did make the wrong choice lol

United losing at home to Burnley. I'm pretty certain they'll win 2-1 with a very late winner.

His goal was unreal, looks a great talent.

Well Cardiff did well while they could. Given the week they have had they are doing amazing against a good arsenal side.

Great turn around from Fulham. 2 nil down to Brighton and now they lead 3-2

Burnley hanging on for dear life....

City in danger of dropping points...FFS

Come on city Newcastle are rubbish. You are the only ones who can stop the worst outcome in premier league history...

The Rafa effect. He rolls over 4-0 for Liverpool but you can bet he'll get his team up for games against Chelsea and City.

Utd doing everything except score.....Burnley desperate defending....can they hang on

I think it was inevitable under the circumstances; at this end of the season you just can't rely on any help from anywhere else....its all down to us to stay in the top 4.

penalty for newcastle

City have conceded a pen

If City drop points and Liverpool win, then I think that's it. I can't see Liverpool dropping 6 more points than City from now until the end of the season.

Burnley winning away is so good, if these type of things could happen to Liverpool as well the world would be a better place.

Burnley Score!!!! 

Burnley 2-0!!

YES 2:0 away burnley!

United in shell shock mode .....

if Utd get one back in the next few minutes they will get two..
