Keefaz Posted January 21 Share Posted January 21 Don't see why we can't destroy them. And they're away to Fenerbahce tomorrow evening. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Their game finishes around 22:45 local time and they're not due back into Birmingham until just before 2am Friday morning. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
SteV Posted January 22 Share Posted January 22 Feels like a big chance to do them, with their injuries and playing in Turkey. They’re relatively comfortable in the Europa, so wonder if he goes half-arsed tomorrow? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
ExiledGeordie Posted January 22 Share Posted January 22 (edited) They won’t be looking forward to play us I don’t think going off that PSV performance. We looked really solid last night and Wissa is looking much sharper like he’s going to start scoring more goals. Midfield looking really good with Tonali looking more like his old self (Botman too in defence). They’re still a very good outfit though, should be a great match and atmosphere, might try for a last minute resale ticket.

Optimistic Nut Posted January 22 Share Posted January 22 You'd think we'll have the extra day rest/training so should give us an advantage. Hope we twat them. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
SiLvOR Posted January 22 Share Posted January 22 Stop them shooting from 50 yards out and they've got fuck all in their locker. They'll probably fluke a goal like they do every week, but we absolutely have it within us to batter them. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Geogaddi Posted January 22 Share Posted January 22 They are a good side but we own these at home, especially since Eddie has been here. Expecting a win. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
SUPERTOON Posted January 22 Share Posted January 22 McGinn and Kamara out for them, hopefully we can build on last night. Something we haven’t really managed to do on the back of a good win this season. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Newcastle Fan Posted January 22 Share Posted January 22 Perfect time to play them to be honest, they got a very tough away game today and we get an extra day rest and home advantage, we just need to be up for it from the start. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
jack j Posted January 22 Share Posted January 22 (edited) Emery spat his dummy out (again) in his last interview after the everton game. Hopefully it rubs off on his players and they're feeling sorry for themselves Onana Kamara and the little cunt Mcginn being out would he a canny boost like Edited January 22 by jack j Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nucasol Posted January 22 Share Posted January 22 Long trip to Turkey and hopefully a couple of niggly injuries picked up by their players to keep them out for Sunday would be nice. Three of their primary midfielders being out and Malen going to Roma is a good start. Morgan Rogers pulling a hammy wouldn’t be a bad result for us.

Was thinking the same thing. They will also be starting to feel the season catch up with them, we should have a good shot at winning this at home. Will be interesting to see what side we put out though with a huge CL game a few days later. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lush Vlad Posted January 22 Share Posted January 22 Sounds like Onana will be back. But Kamara and McGinn are big players for them so I'm glad they'll be missing. Especially McGinn as he is infuriating to watch when your team is playing against him They like to play out from the back and are hardly going to sit in and defend. So the game setup should suit us again. We've often been good against them at SJP since Emery has been there, not bad away a couple of times, too despite the odd hammering. I'd like to see Miley back in at right back. Ramsey in the middle assuming Bruno is out. If Wissa is good to go again, then he should start. It's difficult for Howe with him coming back from injury and both Wissa and Woltemade costing so much. But I'm not sure rotating them too often is going to help either find form. I think Villa will score. But I reckon we can nick it 2-1. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
AyeDubbleYoo Posted January 22 Share Posted January 22 Those two CMs being out is massive, particularly McGinn who seems to enjoy battling against us. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Smal Posted January 22 Share Posted January 22 These guys play a really high line and don’t really press. We can thrash them if we don’t fuck about. Main thing we have to avoid is giving away counters. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ginola14 Posted January 22 Share Posted January 22 given that we've smashed them 5-1 and 3-0 on Emery's previous visits (he was also in the stands for 4-0 before taking over), I suspect he will try something different this time something to frustrate us and get a draw and he can use the injuries as an excuse 2-2 would be my prediction Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
