The College Dropout Posted September 29, 2025 Share Posted September 29, 2025 Dan Burn has started every match of significance he's been fit for. I don't think that's going to change. A lot of games for Botman, he'll get benched imo. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ginola14 Posted September 29, 2025 Share Posted September 29, 2025 think we'll get punished if we underestimate them really hope our lot can put yesterday's painful defeat behind them and play like a top PL team would be nice to see Hall back assuming he's not actually injured?

sushimonster85 Posted September 29, 2025 Share Posted September 29, 2025 Really hope people aren't underestimating this lot. Champions of Belgium and it's not exactly a farmers league anymore. Strength wise it's pretty much level with Dutch league these days. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I watched their game against PSV and they were very, very good. They're already well clear at the top of the Belgian league as well. Hopefully we can start on the front foot for a change, put them under a bit of pressure and see what they're made of. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lucky Posted September 29, 2025 Share Posted September 29, 2025 Hard to feel confident going into most of our games now given how disjointed the play in the final third is. Hooefully Wissa will give us an edge when he returns but that’s still a way off. Would happily take a point against this lot. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Optimistic Nut Posted September 30, 2025 Share Posted September 30, 2025 I mean they won't be a rabble, but you have to go there thinking you'll win given the squads and budgets. Can see another 0-0 though. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sibierski Posted September 30, 2025 Share Posted September 30, 2025 These lot are like a Brighton lite. If we’re not at 100%, we’ll be embarrassed. Do think Ramsdale starting would help us build up more and retain possession away: Ramsdale: Trippier, Thaiw, Botman, Hall: Tonali, Bruno, Miley: Gordon, Woltemade, Elanga We have to get Hall and Gordon together at all times, but I suspect it will be Barnes as Gordon started last two.

Optimistic Nut Posted September 30, 2025 Share Posted September 30, 2025 I don't mind 3CBs at all from starting as it's more about intent. It's when you switch from a 4 to a 5 to try and hold a lead where it can sometimes get caught out. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

At the end of the day if only Woltemade and Tonali can be deemed a positive it doesn't really matter what the system is. The rest of the midfield/wingers have to turn up, the rest will take care of itself. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
The College Dropout Posted September 30, 2025 Share Posted September 30, 2025 If we are to qualify for any next stage we need to beat these & Marseille away. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Prophet Posted September 30, 2025 Share Posted September 30, 2025 (edited) I think it was circa 11 points to qualify for the play offs and 16 points to qualify automatically last time around. If we write off PSG, we need 3-4 wins from USG, Bilbao, Benfica, Marseille, Leverkusen and PSV to progress.
