TRon Posted August 28, 2023 Share Posted August 28, 2023 37 minutes ago, Andy said: Agree with this. Isak was very quiet yesterday, but that's often when players like him are at their most dangerous, especially as the game goes into the later stages and legs start to tire. It's for that reason I often wonder if it wouldn't be better starting Wilson then subbing on Isak, because he's lightning quick and could do what Darwin Nunez did to us yesterday against tiring legs. But I realise he's our best striker so you can't really put him on the bench. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'd have said 5 points from the first 4 would be fine. To have 6 and to have more points than we did from these fixtures last season would be very nice. 3 straight defeats before the break would be grim though.

Skeletor Posted August 28, 2023 Share Posted August 28, 2023 I expect to see a much better effort and performance in this game. What the result will be is anyone's guess as they are a good team who's results can never really be predicted. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Geordie Boyo Posted August 28, 2023 Share Posted August 28, 2023 (edited) Would everyone stop saying draw. I have 0-6 written on the bairns tablet. Next door neighbour’s hedge told me. I do expect…or hope..to see Murphy for Miggy. ‘I would like’ to see Anderson get a start to support Wilson in attack, which would mean one of the 3 amigos being dropped….not likely to happen. Bottom line is we win 0-6. I would definitely like to see Hall involved or Target to start. Again it does feel that it’s not likely to happen with Burn at left-back. Faith in Eddie either way. Let’s turn this around and more forward. Edited August 28, 2023 by Geordie Boyo Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Decky Posted August 29, 2023 Share Posted August 29, 2023 Going away this weekend and won’t see this, which I’m kinda happy about because my nerves would be shot to shit. Anything other than a defeat would be good, 3 defeats in a row would be really shit like. Could see a score draw. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Oregon_Geordie Posted August 29, 2023 Share Posted August 29, 2023 (edited) Reet! Pope Tripps Schar Botman / Burn Hall Tonali Big Joe Bruno Isak (left) Wilson Gordon (right) Let's get some crosses in the box from Hall, Gordon and Tripps and have a fucking go.

Karjala Posted August 29, 2023 Share Posted August 29, 2023 is Eddie willing to go with Barnes and Gordon both starting? or is he hell bent on it being one or the other? would prefer either of those on the right to Miggy or Murphy. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
RS Posted August 29, 2023 Share Posted August 29, 2023 Can’t see us getting anything here either. Technically competent side who will have trained to nullify our threat. Ed has his work cut out this week. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cronky Posted August 29, 2023 Share Posted August 29, 2023 To be honest, I'm not so bothered that this game is away from home. After Sunday's disappointment, the home crowd is going to be a bit on edge. A decent result (ie anything but a defeat) would calm things down.

BonesJones Posted August 29, 2023 Share Posted August 29, 2023 (edited) Their midfield looks significantly weaker this season without Caicedo and Mac Allister. Tonali to dominate. 0 - 4 Edited August 29, 2023 by BonesJones Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
