Watched them play Millwall. They looked a bit shaky at the back on occasion in the first half but they’re so quick on the counter-attack. We tend to struggle against counter-attacking teams with pace and their front four against Millwall were very good. We need to be on our A-game on Wednesday because any lapses in concentration passing out from the back or if we lose the ball in the middle will be costly.

That being said, I didn’t think we’d get anything against Leicester as they’re very quick on the counter and I would say Leicester are a better team than Leeds so who knows.
 
Watch them today, quick on the wings, that new forward they got from Swansea very calm in front of goal so we won’t be able to prat about at the back. Need a top performance from the team and the fans. Think we will need to score more than one to win this one. Dislike is an understatement. Come on City, let’s get that MKM rocking. UTT
 
Watched them today, very pacey when they turn the ball over... Gnonto, Summerville, James...

Is this a game for Vinaigre, who's going to help Coyle...?.. IMO Morton has to start in the middle with Seri
