Is this what we’ve come to? Hoping for jet lag off a 20 minute flight on a private jet?

If you could show me where I mentioned jet lag that would be awesome.

And if you think they get a jet to travel between London and Manchester then you are a nut job.

Between travelling 800 miles or not travelling 800 miles I know which one I'd choose.

Every little helps.
 
Well, just seen the Salah goal. Just trying to decide if it's the keeper's fault for using the wrong hand to try and stop it, as was the debate when Pickford tried to stop a similar shot of the Belgian.
Or just a blindingly brilliant shot.

You said that the travel between London and Manchester would take it out of Spurs.

I’m suggesting that these players travel all over the globe for their national teams. Travelling alot is part of their job and unless they are playing City away in Bolivia, I can’t see it being a huge issue mate. And in any case, a 50 minute flight in 1st class is in no way taxing.

That’s assuming they travel and don’t simply stay in Manchester. They play late on Wednesday and play early Saturday so would likely have stayed over to Thursday and travelled up on Friday anyway.

I literally cannot believe the stress and toll of alleged travel arrangements is even being factored in to this discussion.

Clutching.

Spurs fans and players will be buzzing, it’s one of the biggest games in their history.

Erm you're still using words that I havent. Stress and toll? What are you on?

Its just a marginal gain that can only help city nd hinder spurs. Staying in Manchester? Where? Where would they train?

No you're getting excited. Just admit that, as usual, I'm right and that travelling to and from mamchester is negative for spurs and positive for city and we can get on with our day.

Furthermore they will be buzzing for the CL game, this is another plus point as they're likely to blow themselves out for the league game.

City have got this.
 
Watched 2nd half of City match and then turned on the golf, best decision i made all week.

They are gonna win the league folks I've accepted it, can't see City winning last 5. I won't watch another minute of them again this year.

I hope you’re right. I’m not misquoting you, the inference you made (and continue to make) is that the travel arrangements is a negative for Spurs. I’m saying it’s not even a factor. It won’t knock them even 0.1%. If they lose to City it’s because they are Spurs and City are City.

Not because they’ve had to do the same 1 hour flight or a 2 hour train ride from Manchester to London within 4 days.

I had to do it three times last week, I couldn’t use that as an excuse for s***e performance in work either.

They are Footballers mate. They get about a bit.
 
If City win all their remaining games they’ll have 14 wins in a row. How many times in the history of this League did that happen?

Sadly it’s done and dusted. Up to us to match them and fight the power.

Probably never happened before. This league is absolutely garbage though hence two teams are going to break the 90 point barrier and one might lose once all season and still not win the league. Its far from over though. Its going to the last weekend.
