    With Costa PL 2014/15 Without Costa
    2.2 Avg. Goals For 1.7
    0.9 Avg. Goals Against 0.7
    2.3 Points/Game 2.3
    12.2 Shots/Game 9.7
    58 per cent Possession 51.7 per cent

    I think it will be our toughest game of the season even without Costa hope for a draw but a good performance and no drubbing will be acceptable

    I really fancy a draw - 2-2. Could be exciting, pre-seasons over, it's the real thing now. Monk will no doubt play it cautiously but we've got the quality to play on the counter.

    If it goes our way will depend on the ref !
    Odds on probably a loss against the champs on paper then a slow steady rise up the table for us by xmas IMO ?

    This is a good time or you to play us without doubt. I do fancy us to win but it won't be a rout. 1-0 or 2-1 I reckon. Anyway, have a safe journey and enjoy the game.

    Cheers Blueman. I think we'll all agree here that the performance is the key thing for us on Saturday. That said, if we turn up and we play to our best we can get a draw from this, possibly all three points. A lot of ifs and buts, but it's not impossible with the quality in our squad now.

    This is our biggest and strongest looking team we have ever had and should do very well but whether we can beat last seasons position and points total is up for debate as it will be very difficult i think, but as long as we reach the top half then it will be a great achievement........Oh and this is our most expensive in wages we have ever had....
