TRon Posted February 17 Share Posted February 17 I reckon Wolt would love to play up front against these. I doubt he'll get roughed up the same as he does in the EPL, that should mean he could have more impact in the penalty area. There again you could probably say the same for Osula and Wissa as well. Half the problem has been even getting the supply into the penalty area, they would all probably fancy their chances more in a game like this rather than the PL.

John P Posted February 17 Share Posted February 17 Think people might be underestimating these slightly. We should still win, but they've had results in the CL this season against Chelsea, Frankfurt and Benfica, they aren't complete mugs Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kilcline Posted February 17 Share Posted February 17 Strongly fancy another win here, 2 or 3 nil, even if we were to get beat though I don't see next week being too much of a problem as if we lose it's unlikely to be a hammering Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Should be a different story at SJP though. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Away games to backwater nations are never as simple as they seem. Crazy dirt pitches, referees under real threat of being torn apart by a mob in the stadium, a lot of variables you don't see in the premier league.

Any match where a ref is in danger of being torn apart by frenzied mobs is likely to provide a spectacle. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
