THE BORING BLUE SIDE OF SCOUSELAND. (A Match thread)

This has draw written all over it.

Nevergone have played Arsenal, Chelsea and Citeh in their last three matches and frustrated all 3. It's got low block-palooza written all over it.

i really hope that CHO gets his revenge in VAR Ref Bowl but alas I suspect that it will go the way of the dogs.

At least we aren't getting relegated (Yeah I said it Guru!) so let's enjoy and I would love it if we can get Pickford's face all smushed up with angst. The weird looking Shav.

0-0 or maybe a bit of excitement 1-1. Not looking forward to this game as a spectacle. Would love a cheap win. Would be ecstatic with a comprehensive win.

Anyway fcuk 'em.

Chicago: Trying to polish a turd.

It's screaming out 0-0
And I'm going.
Anyone else?

Not only 1-0, but one of the most depressing experiences of your lives. An own goal after calamitous defending brought on by ennui.

Two teams camped in their own halves, booting the ball back to the other in a desperate attempt to encourage them to attack. Sounds fun.

I expected the Spurs game to be a goal fest, so am assuming the football gods got confused and this is where it will happen. 4-2 to Forest.

And my tyre has just blown out, just outside Liverpool

I like this cut to the chase, proactive, get it over with pragmatism. Excellent work.

Cars are rubbish. You should have cycled or taken the train. Hope that helps.

3421? Gibbs-White and Elanga behind Wood?

Did think it was a bit worrying that CHO had an ice pack on his calf on Boxing Day.

Isn't it basically Brentford away with Dominguez in for Yates?
Edit - Yates was on the bench at Brentford wasn't he? It's Dominguez for CHO but in MGW's midfield role.

And Zach Abbott on the bench to ensure that the record continues.

If we’re picking people not on merit just to keep the record going, it loses some value, I’d say.

Murillo injured in the warm up. Looks like Zach Abbott might end up playing after all. Ramon Sosa on for him.

That’s going to change everything with Murillo and CHO out.

This is going to be an ugly game isnt it?

Chicago: Nervous.

Yates and Murillo out leaves us considerably shorter, aside from anything else.

I was telling someone yesterday that part of our success so far this season was down to the fact that we've been extremely lucky with injuries so far, but it wouldn't last.

Morato is quite a bit taller than Murillo.

Yeah, Dominguez for Yates is the significant one - I was assuming part of the reason for picking Morato was to make us collectively taller than we'd otherwise have been.
