2-1 to the lads. I think this will be a cagey game with little in it, there will be times when we will be under pressure and will need to be compact and solid, that said some of our best work is on the quick transition and I expect that will be the best opportunity to score against a good team like these. I'll go 2-1 with a classic Paddy Roberts cut inside and a low grasscutter shot into the near post, the keeper just stands and watches it go in, it might even take a deflection. The second a lovely through ball by Enzo for his old mate Wilson to convert.
Cant concentrate at work what with transfers and tonights game. In the bigger scheme of things a defeat tonight wont define our season and there are loads of games to go before the end of the season, but the dull part of my brain is nagging me that if we can beat these tonight, our season will really take off and be the springboard to a fantastic end to the season. Essentially I want us to absolutely batter them
Friday nights with all eyes watching are the nights all players live for. This team is ready to step up to the next level with Enzo Le Fee that little bit of magic dust sprinkled to get us over the line. Big future stars like Rigg Bellingham Cirkin & Neil are all fit, well rested and ready to explode into the big time similar to how we prepared AMAD. We know what we have & we should all be confident going into tonight's game. Our only weakness is aerial duels but thankfully this is not a part of the game Burnley dominate either. Ill take our team playing football on the deck against against any championship team. We have very little to lose tonight so should play our natural attacking game. The playoffs are almost guaranteed and this team will be even better come May so tonight is an opportunity to step into the top 2 safe in the knowledge we have a strong squad with hopefully another striker to add. Enzo will hopefully add a bit of magic with set pieces thus completing another part of the jigsaw. Enjoy tonight and regardless of result the future is bright. HaWay The Lads!
I don't fully know what to expect from him but I'm picturing something along the lines of Pritchard if he was world class. I think we've been close to cracking it attacking wise all season but haven't quite made it yet, someone of his quality playing centrally will be a game changer. As you've said elsewhere he'll be a godsend for Isidor who just needs quality service and could well get Roberts firing similar to how Amad did. Exciting times.
Game day now. Transfers can wait. Lets get these buggers turned over again and enjoy looking at the table.
I predicted Sheff Utd beat us and we won. And I think Burnley will beat us tonight as well. 1-0. close game. read into that what you will. I just hope if that happens we don't have a mass meltdown saying we need a striker yesterday etc etc etc
Somewhere in between the two probably, I think he's handier defensively than Pritchard was. Find out tonight hopefully.
My main hope is that if we do lose people don't go overboard. Burnley are undefeated at home. Our result tonight won't define our promotion race negatively. Its what we do against the teams we SHOULD be beating that matters.
Thought we would be in the home strip tonight due to it's the least likely to clash. Might also be a hint that Enzo starts!
Doesn't strike me as a deep finker tbh ... ... he was so bored he bored me and I only lasted a few minutes.
