I’ve got Haaland as triple captain, so getting mauled and having 5 goals from that man will soften the blow
I've gone down the route of deciding that's it's only a game, so I need to look at the bigger picture, and put this in the context of the entire duration of the universe, starting with the Big Bang. No, it still matters...
I expect us to lose, so I will be watching it to see if we put up a fight. Plus, if the big man scores another hat trick we are part of another Premier League record.
I'm finishing off a shed I've been building so won't watch the match. I'll be hoping Man City don't score more than 10 and I'm not expecting us to cross the halfway line much.
So if that's the score at HT when we play, then success! We're at least in European company so to speak
They are insane. So, so, sooooo much quality all over the pitch and the big Nordic Android up front. God help us
I've just realised that our match with City is only three days before they have to play Copenhagen in their return Champions League fixture. This will almost certainly mean that they won't risk their first team players against little old Saints, prior to a far more important European match. As such, Man City will field an entire second XI against us on Saturday. It still won't affect the score, it'll just mean that we don't recognise their scorers/midfield/defence/goalkeeper, when we come a close second. Close to being third in a two-horse contest.
You can get 22-1 for us to win this game. More temptingly you can get 20-1 for Adams to be first goalscorer, and 22-1 for Adarma.
Ralph's pre-match press conference should be er......interesting. Feel for him TBH given the inevitable barrage of questions that will come his way shortly.
Isn't it a region within of The Netherlands, and sometimes used as an alternative name for The Netherlands? Alternatively, Haaland is a goal-scoring cyborg, sent from the future to wreak havoc with defences
