After Watford’s result tonight, it does now kind of feel like the end is nigh, even with their tough final few games. Lose this as I think we will and it piles so much pressure on the palace game, especially if Watford are 7 points ahead by then which they could be.

Or somehow the miracle performance we’ve all been waiting for, strong and disciplined at the back, tenacious in midfield and creative up top. It ain’t gonna happen but feck it 2-1 villa, with a late goal from McGinn.

We now have to produce the freak result vs United that Watford did vs Liverpool - we just to need to achieve it without a home support, in a game where managers get to give 4 team talks & in a game where 5 subs make it almost inevitable that the stronger squad prevails in the final 20 minutes when you reduce the variables.

Never thought there would be anything this season that would be worse than the awful implementation of VAR but Project Restart is utter garbage.  Changing rules mid season to purely favour the big clubs isn’t even subtilely corrupt...not that the football media would highlight it as they depend on games being played for their jobs.

In terms of Thursday Samatta for Davis, anyone for Trezeguet & the same other 9?

Would probably take a point :-) :-) :-)

Personally, I think Robin could be a weak link - I’d stick Batman in midfield instead of the Boy Wonder and give Swamp Thing a try in goal.

He could wear Maradona’s shirt whilst he is in goal

I'd be on Claude nine if we win with that line-up.
