The corresponding fixtures list is useful to look at, but we've also conceded fewer and scored more in that time while converting chances at a lower % than last season. We've taken 16/18 points from the sides currently in the top 7 - the 3-0 at Watford and victory at Leicester look particularly...
It's difficult with Sanchez and Hazard, both. Aguero, too, if he could stay fit. I think my only decent argument is that Özil and Silva are more difficult to replace for their respective sides.
MESUT to the HANDSOMEST BASTARD YOU'LL EVER SEE!!!!
I'll live with your judgement so long as Özil continues creating and assisting more.
TBF, they're the best two players in the league in my opinion. Silva scores more, but Özil is quicker and a better dribbler. Tough to pick between them.
Lee Dixon on NBC saying that Pires, who still trains with the club, told him that Alexis was on track to be on the bench today but his hamstring still troubled him yesterday in training. Glad we didn't risk him.
Aye, I think that's a smart choice by Pellegrini. Our best chance to win this is if we storm the opening 20-30 like we did against Manchester United; Delph + Fernandinho makes this more difficult.
Having said that, Joel Campbell is going to score today. I think we're going to cede more...
