Ride out the first 15 minutes and build from there, make the most of counter attacks. Be aggressive but controlled with it.

I'd settle for wiping out trippier rather than letting him just fall over at the first breeze.

The diving, cheating and thuggery will be epic Monday night. Hooper will.induldge it all but only on their side.

Have to deal with it and keep our heads, they will be ripe for a red card.


Yes, and Slot needs to maintain discipline within our ranks. He can't let our team risk getting sent off by retaliating back against Newcastle.

We don't want a case where one of our players gets fouled nasty and the ref doesn't see it, and he fights back and the ref does see that and sends him off.

I think we are usually really well disciplined though... But there's some new guys in the ranks now.

More likely to be a foul.by konate on Gordon for a red card on tje break. This is a very high probability.

After that

gakpo v trippier is a card.
Macallister v Guimareas is a card.
Joelinton's elbows against whoever plays rb or gravenberch is another card for us.

There's plenty to throw themselves down as well.

Robertson is a liability at times but kerkez will get carded. The way he goes in is stupid so far.
Pause before commitment. He just piles in.

If we get out of there with no injuries I'll be happy.

A card or two can be resolved.

Konate red card would be my bet. We are wide open this year and Gordon on tje break like tje villa game is highly likely.

Gamble alisson will save it. Don't grab him. But konate will.

Trippier schaar burns Livarmento
Tonali guimaraes joelinton
Elanga Gordon barnes



Let's see, no hope Pope in goal, burns and not batman at the back. Trippier pushing livaramento to the wrong side and hall to the bench.

Midfield is strong

Forwards are capable of breaking fast but not winning any thing areially.

I wouldn't be pressing madly here. It'd be thick as pig ****. They will be set up to smash it long at the 3 fast lads so we need to keep 4 back at all times and keep the players together.

The cbs cannot afforded to be isolated with 40 yards between them.

So out midfield and right side will get dominated. We need to score one more than them. Should be high scoring game but without Macca, I fear the worst.
 
One of the most difficult away games of the season, toxicity mixed with extreme physicality and then there is the Jolinton effect, a failed striker who is now a born again hacker. A draw and no injuries please

Anything with no injuries.

It's the injuries thst you cannot recover from when someone is broken up
