What time are people starting on the bevvies today?

 

[Mr Jack]

What time are people starting on the bevvies today?

Kick-off for me, I think.

 

[robfosters]

Kick-off for me, I think.

12:30 for me, so I’m getting going by kick off.

 

[timebomb26]

Would rather have Rashford starting over Sterling, but don’t know why people are losing their minds over it.

Rashford coming on for 30 minutes at the end against tired legs, if necessary, could be lethal.

 

[Lopéz]

he stands near the goal mouth and waits for someone else to beat their man successfully and pass to him, so he can stick a foot out and get a tap in. Such skills.

Worked out alright for Gary Lineker.

12:30 for me, so I’m getting going by kick off.

If I was still in Blighty, I'd have likely met up with friends for a pre-match pub lunch but not so much an option here.

 

[McBain]

Sterling... wow, just wow. How bad of a game does someone need to have to get dropped?

Will probably score a tap in like he does for City 95% of the time and Southgate will wax lyrical about how his decision is vindicated. **** off.

 

[chroniclard]

Not a huge sterling fan being a Liverpool supporter but then that's just sour grapes. However he seems to get criticised a hell of a lot and most of it is unjust. Has had a cracking season and deserves his chance.

 

[Purdy]

While Sterling was bad in the last game some of you are taking the **** with making out he isn’t a really good player.

Probably deserves dropped mind but it was only one game, which managers rarely drop someone over, especially a non defender

 

[Worthy]

Crazy isn't it. You can't even rely on him to have the confidence to finish those tap-ins most of the time.

If the kid could finish he'd be one of the top five players in the world...

 

[XeNoN89]

Sterling's movement is really good he just needs to improve his finishing.

 

[Combat Fighter]

What time are people starting on the bevvies today?

Started when I woke up this morning.

 

[Worthy]

Started when I woke up this morning.

This was my plan but I got woken up with a dramatic phone call from work. I'll finish in 10 mins or so and crack one open. I was hoping to be drunk by now.

 

[LOAM]

Can't believe Stirling is starting, hope the usual management favouritism isn't starting to creep in again, something that has held us back for years.

All that aside 5:0

 

[Robbo]

Feeling pretty confident, an early goal will help massively as it’ll stop them defending deep all game.

 

[Purdy]

Funny from Cesc lol

Looks like it is. I can't fathom the decision. He simply doesn't turn up when in an England shirt.

Looks like it is. I can't fathom the decision. He simply doesn't turn up when in an England shirt.

Alternatively, it's a chance for him to play himself into form, in a game we should win regardless. If he plays badly that's his world cup over, but if he plays well and gets a goal one of our most talented players is suddenly firing.

 

[Mr Jack]

Started when I woke up this morning.

I probably should have done. I just managed to slash my finger open making lunch. Oh well, at least I managed to avoid getting blood in the cheese...

 

[trigg_27]

I still don't see what Young adds to this team. Surely we have better options?
