I think that's exactly how we should look to play them. We are a decent counter attacking side, but not to clever at home when a team sits back and invites us on as Brighton and Newcastle have proved.Crouchend_Hammer wrote:We can't just sit back and try and counter attack in this one
We need to show a little bit more craft and creativity
Hopefully Hernandez will come in for Kouyate, but I won't hold me breath
Should go see a doctor for that, sounds very uncomfortable...szola wrote:
Tight at the back, fluid down the flanks.

I don't believe their defence is at all good and if we can disrupt their possession enough to prevent Fraser etc getting the ball then we should see this out with a win. I'd be happy with 1-0 but anticipate more.
One thing about them is they are stubborn to put down. Will have to be a 90 min performance.
Are we actually blaming Wilson for that goal?Iron George wrote:
Preferably a penalty given against that snake Callum Wilson and Nobes can whisper 'now that's magic son' in his ear after he has converted it.
Any (and EVERY) referee can make a mistake. But it takes a special kind of c*** to (a) put the ball in with his arm and then (b) protest to the officials "if you're thinking of giving that as offside against me, I didn't touch it...honest!" [before (c) taking credit for the 'touch' in the post match].mushy wrote:

It sounds like I am defending the guy(am not) but is the above what actually happened or is it a bit of poetic licence?Bramwell wrote:

I am taking the missus to the game tomorrow and - if she doesn't boo his every touch - I shall be looking for an uncontested divorce.
