Expert diver, one of the finest I've ever seen, and I saw Robert Pires in the flesh.

I just think hes a good competitor, gets stuck in, doesn't go hiding, but yeah he does go down like a big girl.

I wonder whether the games this weekend will go ahead now with coronavirus... Hopefully it does and United draw with Spurs, we have an opportunity to gain daylight above the chasing pack

I wanted to punch his face in the last time we played them. But I got to hand it to him, he's looked really good this season if you watch him, I actually think he would be a lot better playing for a better side, I think he's one of the biggest chance creators in the league. I thought he was overrated as f**k a good 3-4 years back when he was still a teenager, but he's come a long way. 

I would sign him but not at the price they'll ask for, English transfers are always inflated as f**k. 

This being Chelsea as soon as you start thinking "this one's in the bag", the wheels come off again. An early goal like with Everton would work wonders though.

Spurs are terrible, they have no hope against United.

It's the default setting on most French beaches and I was getting some sun on some parts.  Ask @moi

Their only hope is that the game is postponed till Kane and son return from injury..

There’s only one Obi round these parts...

With the thursday training cancelled due to coronavirus concerns I reckon tomorrow meeting could see this game postponed.

The squad in isolation now after CHO tested positive, so no game for sure.

The FA now pushed into a corner that they'll have to stop all games for a while and possibly the remaining season.

Our players will all get tested if no one else is infected no chance they call the game off, this is the money making business, if it pops up in more players then yea they will have to

But they haven't trained the past 2 days. What's the point playing

Dare say this game won't happen tomorrow, if it will ever happen this season. I reckon it's extremely unprofessional to allow players to get on the field after they could have been infected

No way this game is played.

PL suspended until 3rd of April, so I guess I won't be travelling tomorrow to Birmingham... Now, will we get the money back?

f**k me 

That FA cup game will be as well. No football until at least April 3rd.

Thank f**k one those two games on the 21st at the same time is postponed. Having the players in two places at once was looking like a right ball ache!

Correct decision, it's impossible to play football in that way.

It's very sad, but it's needed, health is more important than any game.

Yeah our City game would have been postponed anyway because of the FA Cup, so as it stands we're not as bad off as some teams. If games do resume in April we'll only have missed one scheduled Premier League match.

f**king hell @coco you’ve screwed up the date massively on this one!
