Gallowgate Toon Posted August 20, 2022 Share Posted August 20, 2022 I think this is a decent thread. If Targett is fit then I agree with the starting lineup. Would have Botman in the middle to keep on Haaland though. I think we should focus on trying to keep possession in spells tomorrow, as a starting point, and a back 3 who are all comfortable might just be our best foundation for that.

mighty__mag Posted August 21, 2022 Share Posted August 21, 2022 Howe not even thinking about a draw. Good to hear he doesn't fear City. 💪🏼 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

teohgk Posted August 21, 2022 Share Posted August 21, 2022 I’d be happy if we able to score, there’s a huge gap of quality between us and them. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sean Posted August 21, 2022 Share Posted August 21, 2022 I wouldn't leave ASM out Can you imagine how badly he'll sulk for the next few weeks if he is left out. He'd be parking in Eddie's spot at the training ground for fun. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
gbandit Posted August 21, 2022 Share Posted August 21, 2022 This is the sort of game ASM could use to really show he’s buying in to playing in Howe’s system while still being an outlet for us Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cronky Posted August 21, 2022 Share Posted August 21, 2022 It looks to me like they've reached the top by cheating, so whenever they lose is a cause for celebration. If it's us that beats them, so much the better. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Yorkie Posted August 21, 2022 Share Posted August 21, 2022 Woke up absolutely buzzing for this. We know what's gonna happen realistically but feeling very optimistic we'll want to deliver a great performance at the very least. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dr Jinx Posted August 21, 2022 Share Posted August 21, 2022 I watched back the highlights of the 5-0, we were well below par and some shocking individual mistakes that day. Dubs made a howler, we had Lascelles at the back for the whole game. Trippier was totally lacking in fitness when he came on. Yet we still opened them up and should have scored.

Wilson Posted August 21, 2022 Share Posted August 21, 2022 Excited for this, first time sat in my new seat and expecting it to be absolutely electric atmosphere at kick off. Again, I'm not expecting anything but just hoping we don't let them walk over us. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

RS Posted August 21, 2022 Share Posted August 21, 2022 Keep their score down to less than 3. We’re playing in a different financial league to the PL’s fave 6. We’ll soon be banging on the door though. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Willow Posted August 21, 2022 Share Posted August 21, 2022 If we can manage a draw, I think that'd be a great result. It'll be a fascinating watch seeing our defence attempt to handle their forwards, plus Bruno and Joe Vs KDB n co. Also will we potentially see Miggy against Grealish? Flying scissor kick to the head getting Almiron sent off? I'll go with a 1-1, with Pope extending his good form and saving our bacon 🤞 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pilko Posted August 21, 2022 Share Posted August 21, 2022 (edited) I reckon a gutsy, battling performance with a few half chances created but ultimately two late sucker punches. They're too good. 0-2. Edited August 21, 2022 by Pilko Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

ExiledGeordie Posted August 21, 2022 Share Posted August 21, 2022 We’ll get chances just have to be clinical as I think our defence can keep us in it for a bit. Crowd and atmosphere will be a huge plus. Maxi needs a big game. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

gbandit Posted August 21, 2022 Share Posted August 21, 2022 It’s absolutely essential that Botman is on marking the alien today. He can’t match him for pace but his reading of the game and positioning is key to not letting him run rampant Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
