He should be loving this - representing his hometown against the mackems in his first league start. He should also be full of confidence after last week.
Thoroughly enjoyed Shearer's last game where even Luque and Chopra scored. Play well and I think we could see a similar score tomorrow and why not - we have better players, a massive point to prove after last season and they are abject!
I don't believe in tempting fate so I'll say it, this should be the easiest derby for years.
Have the same feeling. Quite relaxed about tomorrow when I am usually a bag of nerves by now.
