    Great thread @RTB. I have a feeling we are gonna make it back to back wins on the road

    United's defence is woeful and if the crowd turns it will help us

    No reason why we can't win this one, though an away point is always acceptable

    Lovely thread as usual @RTB I’m probably more confident about getting a result in this game than any other game this season and that feels weird to say that! Definitely feel we will get something from this fixture. Read a couple of earlier posts…..is Nordi a doubt??

    Cheers RTB great read as always.
    Regardless of how they are playing this is always going to be a difficult fixture
    However fancy us to get at least a point

    Not sure how RLB will set up but think Gertruida plays. Maybe even in midfield
    I really like this lad think he could be an important player for us this season
    This lad is a serious footballer

    I love the start we`ve had but I`d still take a guaranteed 17th if it`s on offer - I`m stuck between heart and head...the problem is I`m not entirely sure which is which...

    I just can`t see the current bottom few teams remaining as bad as they are at the minute. I think Wolves have it in them to improve significantly, likewise West Ham - I fear for Burnley (only 1 point from teams other than us) but I`m not sure who the other 2 teams are...

    Away from home we have looked really together, strong and determined against Palace and Forest and I hope that gives us a blueprint for all of our away games - they`ll all be difficult and we will lose a few

    But...we took a point away at Palace (3rd in the League; beat Liverpool); took all 3 vs Forest (playing in Europe and were seriously challenging for Champions League last year) and we have got Regis...

    At home we are unbeaten (but West Ham were dogshite; Brentford we only scraped home and scored the winner in the final knockings and Villa we dodged a billet given the red card but genuinely think we would have won with 11...)...

    I don`t know! It all feels very "not Sunderland"

    **** IT...I`ve given my head a shake and we all need to get passport ready! Especially after 3 points on Saturday

    They probably see us as best chance and last chance to not sack Amorim.

    Tough no doubt. Haway!

    Regardless of how poor they've been should be a real tough test, they've a handful of players who could be the biggest tests some of our lads have faced thus far.

    Hopefully a good game.
