TFF chit chat 1st and 2nd January

[Quin]

Kane just twanged a hammy scoring a disallowed goal for Spurs. Walked straight off.

hmm Aguero not starting. Maybe Firmino or will this mean Aguero plays in the weekend

[murf]

Rashford?

[Quin]

yeah maybe..trying to decide

[Darbyand]

Just noticed Ederson is ill so Bravo starts. The former has been very poor value for money.

Wasn't worth ditching for 1 game. Still isn't. Had I known it was 2....

[Stargunner]

If only I knew which one of the following would be the best replacement for Kane?
Rashford
Aubameyang
Firmino

[Darbyand]

United least likely.to rotate for the Cup IMO.

[murf]

Son back for Cup.....
Don't expect to see Firmino (or Salah or Mane) starting in the Cup.

[Jamjack]

I’d guess that too. Also noticed Vardy has a “calf strain”. Mmm. Sounds like a sick note.

[Canaryfan]

Just come in to see the Man City line up - are they saving the big guns for the game against Port Vale?

[Canaryfan]

If only I knew which one of the following would be the best replacement for Kane?
Rashford
Aubameyang
Firmino

Rashford or TAA looks like my choice, hmmm.

[murf]

Jesus could be a good bet...

[murf]

My best team was only due to have 5 playing today.

Sterling, Vardy, Alli and Kane were 4 of them.

[Darbyand]

Man Utd XI: de Gea, Wan-Bissaka, Lindelöf, Maguire, Shaw, Fred, Matic, James, Lingard, Rashford, Martial.

Pogba "'injured" for a few weeks" according to OGS. My double quote marks.

Aguero v Port vale?

[LenH]

Good call. Burn was subbed off injured midway through the first half.

Phew!

Burn out for 6-8 weeks according to Sky.

Who to replace him with?

Any good/playing ultra cheapies or get (more) Sheff U?

Maybe that fella at Villa, what's his name...Guilbert is it?

/runs

[LenH]

Were there any 2nd kc's for the City goals (been out all day)?

[Spinynorman]

High: 32

Low: 31

Best team: 31

[murf]

Were there any 2nd kc's for the City goals (been out all day)?

2 goals, 4 (useless) KCs:
Mendy, Mahrez, Gundogan, Foden (not sure who got them when)

High: 25

Low: 18

Best team: 19 (despite having Jesus!)

[murf]

1 goal. 2 KCs.

Salah (Robertson, VVD)

[murf]

2-0 Mane (Salah)


Mane-Salah-Mane-save-Mane-goal

[reds363]

Is that a Salah KC these days? Bloody well should be, but a couple of years ago they stopped giving it in such cases where the scorer took two attempts

I could be wrong which is why I explained the sequence. Wouldn't have been if it was a defender.

[murf]

828 completed passes from Liverpool so far.

A Premier League record.

[Darbyand]

5 clean sheets in a row.

[happyhoppy]

5 clean sheets in a row.

The Liverpool blocks will be coming up strong now.

[Jamjack]

I think Liverpool have a half decent shot at the title this year.

[Canaryfan]

I think you may be right that it rules out the KC. Not long to wait to find out now.

[get_on_my_cocker]

No Salah kc

[Themonkey thatstolexmas]

Points in, I move up to 908th overall
