    Firpo is very misunderstood, especially by Emu

    Only hope I cling to is, as my boy says, it would be sooo Arsenal to beat Tottenham and Liverpool back-to-back and then lose to us.

    We've a punchers chance if we can not concede for the first half an hour or so.

    Sadly it’s not often that we never concede.

    On Gelhardt I will refer the knockers to the fact that the Leeds fans get revved up when it looks like he he’s coming on. That means the fans are exited and see something else.

    Is it possible that Firpo is Fat Kev in disguise? <whistle>

    EDIT: Btw, it's not Eire I'm referring to! :D

    Exactly.

    Arsenal are playing some great stuff at the moment but if we can ride our luck a bit, win a few individual battles, we can get at them. Arsenal are full of confidence and hopefully they are a bit over confident tomorrow and we can play off that.

    Of course it's perfectly plausible that they score early and then just pick us off as we press higher and higher trying to get back in the game.

    However, they had a fair old trek Thursday night and if we start well it might turn a little uncomfortable for them.

    I’ve a bad feeling we’ll lose to a last gasp goal

    Ohh I don't know really. Might push the boat and purchase Tesco Everday Value instant coffee granules - 47p.

    Hell the only chance we have got is if we don't concede for the first 90 min or so :grin:

    Is that a reflection of how good he is, or how poor the player coming off is?

    I know you rate Rodrigo Doc, me personally I’d play Gelhardt ahead of him in the main attacking role, the same as I would have done when James filled the slot.

    I think James and Rodrigo are better players than Gelhardt but not in that solo front role, so if Joffy came on for them, I’d be getting buzzed up. I still think it’s a poor choice that we rely on him as our main back up for Bamford and a position that’s been badly neglected

    Morning all and its a nice clear day here.Blue skies with a strong breeze making it feel cooler.
    How long will Bamford and Aaronson last today. At what point will Marsch use his subs bearing in mind the new subs rules.

    To sum up us right now. can we win? yes. will we lose? probably. will the opposition score? defiantly. Will Bamford or Rodrigo or both miss a game changing opportunity? most likely. If Firpo touches the grass, will he get booked? a god given. will Gelhardt,Summerville,Gnonto start? No fecking chance. Will we play like two different teams each half ? put your house on it. Do we know how to change a game when things are going wrong? Absolutely not.

    Other than that, things are going great lol.
    let's be positive It's about time we gave these a twatting. Hopefully today is that day.
    Mon the Whites!!!!!
