Sima Posted August 24, 2024 Share Posted August 24, 2024 Not confident on this one. It’s got routine home win with us not turning up written all over it. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you want us to be competing for the Champions League, or even Europe, then a draw away to Bournemouth would have to be a result you have to be disappointed with. If we are going to compete for the Champions league we are going to likely need a couple quality signings and a Gordon back in form. Getting Tonali back will also hopefully help massively. But as we stand right now I would be perfectly happy with a draw, think that is just being realistic based on our current circumstance.

The Prophet Posted August 24, 2024 Share Posted August 24, 2024 One of those where we should be aiming to win, but a point wouldn't be terrible. Both sides rely on the high press, but Bournemouth do look a bit short up top. Don't think there will be much in it at all, but I'll back us due to our superior firepower. 1-2 win.

Weezertron Posted August 24, 2024 Share Posted August 24, 2024 I just hope we can look fluid and atleast pass the ball a few times before losing it. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

BrickTop Posted August 24, 2024 Share Posted August 24, 2024 This will be tricky. Long way to travel and these have been a bit of a bogey team of late. Keep it tight and if we can get Gordon in the game I'm hoping we can nick it. We'll need Burn to follow up on last week with another good show and hopefully Joelinton bang up for an away day battle.

It's a very basic metric but win your home game and draw your away = 76 points. Which is enough to get you Champions League. While I wouldn't be ecstatic with a point, it wouldn't be a disaster. That said, we need to win this game, mainly as our away from was so poor last season that getting a good start would set a precedent. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
WilliamPS Posted August 24, 2024 Share Posted August 24, 2024 Think Isak will get a goal. 1-2 away win. The win and circumstances last week will hopefully sharpen the players up and raise the intensity. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Weezertron Posted August 24, 2024 Share Posted August 24, 2024 Eddie knows we need to improve our away form from last season. I wonder what practical steps you can take to do that, other than just being better/improved game plans. Would love to know what the coaching team have tried, if they've tried owt. Tomorrow's game will be a small but good indicator whether it'll continue to be an issue this season. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
