    Good win against Leeds and now time for yet another windy Tuesday night up at Stoke. Apparently all their home games take place on Tuesdays?

    Anyway, hopefully no changes. Let’s get into them early and get this run going!

    All Tuesday night games on sky.

    I have never seen so many of our matches.

    Back to back wins from 2 tricky games would be fantastic

    Feel much better after Leeds.
    Now I'm not going to fall into the trap of thinking we will now beat Stoke and Rotherham.
    But that's what I keep thinking. Oh no

    Going up to this. Something weirdly attractive about ticking off a Tuesday night at Stoke from the football bucket list

    Buzzing.

    I like Edozie and the threat he has when he gets the ball.

    Sulemana however showed his class on Saturday with those 2 perfect assists.

    If Edozie can watch and learn from him, he will be quite a player.

    Same starting line up from Leeds for me with Edozie pace from the bench early 2nd half.

    I’d like to see Edozie in this. I’m not enamoured w Ryan Fraser. To quote my son when he saw him getting subbed the other day ‘is that someone’s dad coming on??’

    Ryan Fraser, Adam Armstrong, and Ryan Manning look like the 20 year reunion version of that 90's boy band you never even knew existed in the first place.

    Tbf I was sceptical about that sub at the time as I thought removing our main attacking threat just after they scored was asking for trouble and made it clear we were going to sit back for the remaining 30 mins, but Fraser did well helping out the useless Manning.

    Hopefully against teams not as talented as Leeds Manning won’t need additional help but he’s not shown anything defensively from what I’ve seen so far.

    Hopefully we start with the same team as v Leeds and adopt the same ta tics. I’m still stunned at how we played first half If that’s Russball I’m all for it :1980_boogie_down:

    Just had a look at the last 3 games between Stoke and Swansea, under Martin, and Stoke have 2 wins and a draw, scoring 3 goals twice.
    I don’t know if that means anything and if it infers that Stoke know how to play against Martin, but my fingers will be crossed that Martin understands why he had those results and will set us up to prevent another poor result.
