Wallsendmag Posted September 22, 2018 Share Posted September 22, 2018 waits for the must win brigade No game this season should be filed under "must win". Whichever league we are in is largely irrelevant under the current regime. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Decky Posted September 23, 2018 Share Posted September 23, 2018 Hard to call this one really. I don't think we'll win. Gonna have to wait until Brighton for our first 3 points. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Posted September 23, 2018 Share Posted September 23, 2018 It’s a game where in isolation over a full season a draw would be decent, but when you’ve not won all season it becomes more important. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Darth Crooks Posted September 23, 2018 Share Posted September 23, 2018 It’s not must win but we need a positivity boost. Pragmatic draws serve us only so far. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
cp40 Posted September 23, 2018 Share Posted September 23, 2018 Not feeling optimistic, be surprised by a win. but- not getting too worried yet- think 2-3 wins is just round the corner, just not sure it starts here. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Segun Oluwaniyi Posted September 23, 2018 Share Posted September 23, 2018 I'm worried about their midfield against ours, Ndidi, Mendy. Lot of legs. Pacey side as well. I think they are a better side in general, tbh. NUFC have a far better manager and Lascelles is better than any of their defenders, but that is it. I watched the match yesterday, and the combination of Vardy, Maddison, Iheanacho, and Gray were all very quick, and sharp and difficult to deal with, the opposite of NUFC's attack this season. Gray and Vardy were great value, but are both England internationals and Kelechi and Maddison are 21 years olds that cost fifty million pounds between them. There is a difference in quality going forward, at least. The key will be to take the chances presented, so Rondon, Joselu, Perez, etc. will need to step up. Their defence is very leaky and slow, and they are their to be countered, especially if you can bypass the two midfielders with balls down the side of the centrebacks, who cannot run. None of their fullbacks can defend at all. There will goals in this game, imo. 2-2. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I watch a good amount of Leicester for Ndidi and Iheanacho, and one can see why Maguire is rated highly, he has great physical presence and is very good with the ball at his feet, but I believe Lascelles is definitely better as a pure defender. Maguire is really quite slow, prone to make bad errors and out of position fairly often, imo. Maybe they have just not found a good partner for him, because Evans and Morgan accentuate his faults instead of covering them. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
