    A badly hit pen that just squeezes in because the keeper dives too soon.

    It will go in off the underside of the bar (One of the three in Shane's hat-trick). These happy pills are doing the business!:smiley-finger007:

    We're average a non-penalty goal every 219 minutes at home in 2017, by my math.

    Basically, the whole of our team is scoring at a rate that would be considered reasonable but unspectacular for a striker.

    Please, please, please try something different this game Mr Manager. We were so much more threatening with Boufal and Gabbiadini on the pitch last game. If he persists with starting Long up front with no other striker I expect nothing more than we've had the last 3 games. Hopefully he's had 2 weeks to review and had a thought or two.

    What only 10 men :)

    For me:

    ------------Forster
    Cedric Maya Hoedt Bertrand
    --------Romeu Lemina
    Tadic -------------------Boufal
    ----------Gabbiadini
    -------------Austin

    Torn about VVD, but Maya or Hoedt have done nothing wrong. Austin over Long as even though Austin looks immobile and slow compared to him, he has a real knack of scoring goals. Also need Austin on the pitch if Tadic is incase we get a penalty ;)

    Edited. Agree on VVD, but also because he's a nob.
    Went for long because without Redmond we need a bit of pace.

    To be honest I can't get excited when thinking of a forward line, can't see us scoring. Sorry to jump on the negative bandwagon.

    Wouldn't say it would be scraping a draw, just that if we persist with the same set up and personnel then we'll likely struggle to score again. As someone said they have the 3rd best defence in the league and have a top manager who excels in a well organised counter attacking set up.

    Again though, if we mix things up I can easily see us having too much for them and blowing them away.

    Yeah it's mental isn't it only 10 home goals in a calendar year? <yikes>

    I thought it was wrong at first so had to check but it is right... 9 came in just 3 matches too!

    <applause>

    Has this game been postponed?

    Seen some debate shows this week, looked at headlines on the sports pages and football stories on the tv and am only hearing about the Liverpool v Man utd game.

    Anyone know when the rest of this weekend fixtures have been moved to?

    That is so depressing. The next stat will probably be 65% were scored by CB's.

    I think our most dangerous attacker this season is Yoshida.

    You are probably right. Yoshi is getting chances every game. A better finisher he would have 4 goals this season.
