Hopefully nothing like the last home match against this lot. Surely the likes of Cresswell can't play as bad as they did last time.

First visit to new stadium for this game, it's going to be a cracker I'm sure! Where's best to go before hand and any tips for getting in and out of stadium?

I can only see a defeat based on our form against the better sides this season. I just hope it's respectable this time.

Before hand, try the Black Bull on Stratford Broadway. I'm not a great fan of The Carpenter's as there's no Real Ale. If you want to sample something different head to Hackney Wick for some craft beer.

Best way to the ground? The authorities make it a ball ache getting in and out. If you're in any of the pubs (and there are loads of them to choose from) just follow the crowds. From that perspective the Carpenter's and the Crate win hands down. Afterwards, it really depends where you're heading. Always worth having a beer and letting the worst of the crush to die down.

I think we will play relatively well but ultimately lose

As long as we keep up the intensity of the 2nd half against Palace, and really have go at them, I will go home happy regardless of the result. If we sit back and go all defensive that will piss me right off (esp if we go 5 at the back)

Win the next two after this, happy days

We'll be alright so long as he doesn't play in goal.

I've heard he's a handful - he's like three players in one.

Payet was poor. But Cresswell didn't make one tackle all night. To be honest...he doesn't make many at all.

City should be a far more consistently dominating side than they actually are so whilst I know they battered just recently I honestly think we can sneak this. 2-1 us.

We need AC and Antonio to just use some 'battering ram' action. We need to rough them up a bit and knock them out of their stride.

Matchday at last after the transfer window saga

Big match and on paper they should beat us as squad is around 5 times the cost of ours. However, on our day we can beat anyone and lose to anyone !

Need to start fast and hard against this lot. If we sit off they will play and play and beat us.
Need antonnio on beast mode and the midfield getting stuck in.
AC must not be isolated.

The crowd to be up for it as well need a cauldron of noise. Lets show everyone how committed we all are fans and players. A positive attitude will see us through.
