    TBH I'm the opposite. I'm expecting a scrappy game with not many goals.

    I think it will be 4-4. After 30 mins. It will then finish the half at 5-4 to Stoke and we'll win the second half 3-0 and the game 7-5.

    With at least one of our goals coming directly from a Bazunu long clearance, which bounces over the Stoke keeper's head on the way to the back of their net

    I think all 9 of our goals will be scored by Bazunu, 8 in the way you describe, and the 9th from him punching at a cross from a Stoke corner, which the wind carries all the way to the Stoke goal.

    Well done Russell. I was convinced you'd make changes but I'm very pleased to see you stick with the same team.

    Excellent, back to back same team for the first time this season.
    Hopefully another decent performance and result and the momentum keeps on going.

    Feels like it has been ages since we named an unchanged side! Although no way do we see this 11 start against Rotherham

    Good team! I wonder what’s happening with Charles and Adams though?

    Adams is off in January. He will not sign the contract they are offering him.

    Downes is preferred ahead of Charles, and If he performs like we know he can then it's the correct decision.

    So he’s basically refusing to play? By not performing and getting dropped?

    I'd day that RM is just preferring to play Alcaraz.

    Whilst we change the way we play kinda allowing the FBs to stay wider and Alcaraz drops deeper to keep the midfield compact.

    This has nothing to do with Adams refusing to play.
    Pretty obvious really Adams will go in January if I was a betting man.

    No way is Adams refusing to play - the fact he isnt playing is probably partly causing him not to sign the contract!

    I think a struggling prem team will gamble on him in January and we might even get £7m or £8m for him.

    Must admit I was happy when I just looked at the team sheet. So that's on the record. Thumbs up from me. Come on lads. I feel like this game is important to our season

    If we get 10Million in January we've done well, But that's easily doable by the sheer desperation of the teams down there.
