54 Posted August 31, 2023 Share Posted August 31, 2023 Only really just clicked how daunting the fixtures are going to be this season, in the three week period between the September and October international breaks we have 7 games Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Geordie Boyo Posted August 31, 2023 Share Posted August 31, 2023 We all clearly went professional at being miserable for having shit seasons on end, so it’s not the end of the world that we’ve got/had every possible difficult scenario/challenge that could happen so far. We’ll be better for it next season man! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yorkie Posted August 31, 2023 Share Posted August 31, 2023 Forgot they've got the Club World Cup to contend with as well this year. Doesn't really matter given their strength in depth but you'd imagine this competition will be low priority this year. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think they look a little short on depth this year, although granted most their reserves are probably wonderkids. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mattoon Posted August 31, 2023 Share Posted August 31, 2023 Looking on their forum it looks like the QF stage clashes with the Club World Cup and they've either sold or loaned out most of their kids so they'll struggle to field 2 teams. They could just throw this game in favour of the CWC. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

SiLvOR Posted August 31, 2023 Share Posted August 31, 2023 Southampton managed to beat these last year in the competition. We've done it before as well, so I don't think it's too unrealistic to say we can do it again. They're absolutely going to rotate, I'd be tempted to go full strength against them as we should have enough to cope with Burnley and Sheffield United either side of the fixture. Just think that pyshcologically, a win against City can do us a lot of good. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
