"Hard to for see anything but another defeat. 1-2" "I honestly can forecast this game already. Put money on us going behind coming back, then losing, Wilson to score at some point, massive boos at full time." "Are we comfortably better?? Based on what? We both concede a hatful, if they beat us (highly possible) they will only be a couple of wins behind us in the league. We are in no position to claim we are better than anyone right now. We have better players but nearly all of them are badly out of form or injured." "Well we need to score 2 to at least get a draw. " "0-3 loss" "Not going to be pretty is it" "This is going to be awful on the pitch and even worse in the stands. One sideways pass and it will kick off." Are we certain these aren't just quotes from us during the last few Bruce matches? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

What's wrong with them?.....even with the Howe improvement they could still probably put 3 or 4 past us with their reserves We won there last season, with Steve Bruce in charge. Any team can lose on a given day. If they are at their best we will lose, if they are not, we have a chance to win the match. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not even a shadow of a doubt in my mind. Nope, it's all about perspective. I've seen us rise, fall, rise again and then fall for a long time with just an anomaly season (Pardew 5th) to break up the despair. No matter what comes next I'll never lose sight of that. I was lucky enough to see SBR build that team that was ready to challenge the top 4 but there was also a few years where we were not so great before we got to that point. So to see that side become what they were felt extra special because there was context there. I was only really old enough to have seen one or two seasons of Andy Cole, and then after it was cherries on top type football for the next two seasons. Looking back, Kenny Dalgish is every much of a villain as Steve Bruce in my eyes, dismantling a title challenging team to give jobs to his geriatric Liverpool mates is something I'll never get my head around. If SBR hadn't come in to save us a few years after I don't even want to contemplate where we might be now. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not even a shadow of a doubt in my mind. To be fair, we’ve not known any success in the last 20 years really in terms of challenging at least so it’s hard to gauge how fans will react once we’ve had that again and then don’t suddenly have more success or bigger success. By and large NUFC stick with their team and club, I mean look at under Ashley, two relegations, no cup runs., shocking managers, Rafa leaving, Bruce etc. etc. We should know better than anyone, however, never to criticise other clubs’ fans for wanting more or better given we have been blasted by all and sundry as being deluded, over expectant, hounding managers out etc. I’d be pissed of if I was a Leicester fan and Rodgers does have form for it going tits up.

SiLvOR Posted December 10, 2021 Share Posted December 10, 2021 A team out of form, with a lot going against them, and they need a win. Of course, we'll gladly oblige. That would have been my view only months ago. However, under Howe, I actually think we could take advantage of the situation. Fully confident we can win this, and I don't doubt that the team feel the same way. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yorkie Posted December 10, 2021 Share Posted December 10, 2021 It'll be a score draw imo but no result would surprise me here. They're better than us and their form isn't even that bad; they beat Watford at the King Power a couple weeks back, so hardly a guaranteed banana skin. We'll have to put a lot in to get a positive result here and once again rely on our best players to really perform. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

HaydnNUFC Posted December 10, 2021 Share Posted December 10, 2021 We deservedly stuck 4 past them and should've probably scored more against the strongest side they could put out if they had no injuries last season. Not saying we will again but there's goals in it for us, no reason at all to me why we can't go there hopeful of beating them. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
