Morning all.
I had a dream last night about a goalkeeper with no arms. I’m guessing it’s got something to do with how Vicario will play tonight in the game I just can’t bring myself to watch. I don’t know what I’ll do, but I can’t endure it whatever happens. If City win as easily as I think they will, that’s not worth sitting through. And if by some miracle Sp*rs get themselves in a position to take something from the game, the stress will be too much.
There is still something to play for after Aston Villa’s highly chaotic and entertaining 3-3 draw with Liverpool last night. My favourite bit was when John McGinn, who routinely clatters around the pitch like some kind of giant-arsed Angus bull on PCP, took exception to the fact someone gave him a bit back in one challenge. Moaning and bleating at the ref until he was told to shut up. Sure, he might have a cracked rib, but it was a great example of a lad who loves to dish it out but can’t take it.
It looked like Liverpool were going to win quite easily, but one silly mistake swung the momentum back in Villa’s favour and they scored a couple of late goals to take a point. I watched Unai Emery on the sideline, and while I can acknowledge he is doing a very good job at Villa, I just cannot take him seriously at all. He’s clearly a good coach who is getting a lot out of these players, but I think I’m still too traumatised by his time at Arsenal – which wasn’t all his fault I should add – to do anything but look on in a kind of weirded-out wonder. Maybe that’s just me.
Anyway, that result means that it is still possible for Sp*rs to finish ahead of Villa, if results go their way – starting with tonight. Except for many of their fans, a win is anathema to them if it helps Arsenal win the title. People say ‘What if the situation was the other way around, how would you feel?’, and there’s probably something to that – but it would mean that Sp*rs are challenging for the title on…
