Let alone how the players feel This for me! It's fucking great! The players must be loving it though. It just shows that when you're a team in lots of competitions and you can progress in them, the whole squad really do get game time. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

STM Posted September 28, 2023 Share Posted September 28, 2023 In the space of two weeks when we were down in the dumps: 3 wins 4 clean sheets Beat the best side in the world Draw at the San Siro in the CL Smashed our away scoring record Have a number of our better players bang in form Both strikers scoring goals Not been a bad little turn around.

We’re black and whites by name and nature! One extreme to another seems to be the norm. I wonder if it’ll get boring if we’re, relatively speaking, ever great all of the time? Hope we get a chance to find out. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

SUPERTOON Posted September 28, 2023 Share Posted September 28, 2023 Interesting to see how Burnley set up, their normal style of play should suit us down to the ground. They like to play it around and pass it out from the back, if we press like we did against City in the second half we should get some joy. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's a good point. We played a fully rotated backline including a player who hadn't played in a year and pulled off a clean sheet against a very good City backup squad who are better than some EPL teams starters.

buzz Posted September 28, 2023 Share Posted September 28, 2023 Gordon against Roberts should be fun. They're very physically weak in the middle. Should be absolutely turning them over there Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mazzy Posted September 28, 2023 Share Posted September 28, 2023 I think of all the newly promoted teams, Burnley are perhaps the one who I would expect to come to us play a bit more openly. They definitely went for it against Man U and Spurs. They'd have the worse defensive record so far had we not just scored 8 against Sheff Utd.

STM Posted September 28, 2023 Share Posted September 28, 2023 Don't feel any worry about this. Kompany is too arrogant to change his tactics. His players aren't good enough to play through us AND keep us out. They might score but if they do, we will score more. 4-1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vaj Posted September 29, 2023 Share Posted September 29, 2023 They played some good stuff against Man Utd but never looked like scoring. The young winger they have got looks dangerous, other than that we should have far too much for them. 3-0 to us - Botman, Wilson and Gordon Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Especially if Mbappe starts. If the Milan game proved anything it's how important Trippier is going to be in our UCL games. He should be starting every single one of them if he is fit and able to. It doesn't matter if he's against Mbappe or not, he kept a clean sheet against Leao and Hernandez, two of the quickest players in Europe. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
