Are you being sarcastic or not? If yes, have you never heard of the saying 'After the Lord Mayor's parade'? I completely stand by it. If they win tomorrow they'll be off guard against 'little old Hull'. If they lose tomorrow they'll have a point to prove at the weekend.
The Real game will help us anyway that's for sure as they are unlikely to all be at full pelt after that this weekend
We certainly have a huge problem if Jelly can't play. Hernandez is not a lone striker. So far I haven't seen any of this 'lightning pace' he was supposed to have and he appears to blow hot and cold. Has he completed 90 minutes yet? Diame has shown some exceptional class. Our blokes haven't got it together yet but I think they are close. We are not getting our fair share of the 'run-of-the-ball' either. Can't see us getting anything out of this and with the injuries to key players we are certainly up against it.
One decision for us doesn't mean we are getting our 'fair share' though. What about the penalty for QPR, or the throwing Stoke equalised from, to name two, 99 times out of 100 the ref gets those calls right as well.
Agreed i thought he was a speed merchant. I'd like to see him open his legs and show us all what he's got....
I'm not sure we do. Jella dropped out at the worst possible time on Saturday and we still drew 2-2 with Hernandez upfront on his own, this week we will be preparing all week for Jella not playing. I do agree he isn't a lone striker.
I quite like that set up, Hernandez is not a lone striker but he would just have to grin and bare it, but Rossy in to look after Sterling not a bad shout.
I'm sure when he does open his legs we'll witness him keeping one eye ahead in the hope of delivering a good battering to the cave of wonders.
I'm not boycotting games cos of the debt, where the f** did you get that from? I've never once said that. If I was boycotting cos of club debt I dont think I'd have attended any football game in the past 20 years nor attend another ever again. I've said it before and I'll say it again, there seems a really strange culture on here of people reading one thing and then drawing their own conclusion of something completely different.
If Alex Bruce starts we simply wont win, he's solely responsible for a goal every time he's on the pitch. He even maintained his woeful statistics on Saturday during his brief appearance by gifting them the winner with his moronic charge out leaving his man (Welbeck) completely unmarked.
Again, I feel that we have the pieces of the Jig-Saw ready to assemble except 3 pieces have gone missing. Hard call for Steve and his selectors to come up with a suitable team and tactics. Our team is still bonding so it's yet another setback for us. Geez we are hellishly light up front for a Premier League team. We are surely going to have to get a 'loan-in' Striker to fill the breach (are we allowed to?) as Hernandez doesn't appear to be anywhere near capable of doing this on his own.
There are no emergency loans in the Premier League, other than for keepers and only in exceptional circumstances.
I can gurantee that this will be the lineup on saturday without a doubt (bar injuries) anyone saying 442 and nonsense with ince starting is unrealistic.
Again why would we ever go 442 away from home against a 'bigger team' And start rosie at right back etc. It wont happen
