Real smart

Utterly pointless putting him out today, what ball we get won't be clean and he would be forced to run like a dog.

 

[HalfTimeSayers]

I think we’ll be tight and patiently watch them pass the ball left to right not really getting anywhere. I watched them do this in person at Leicester, they have infinite patience, but looked pretty ineffective against a full team behind the ball. I do think we will be focused and committed.

They will eventually score some kind of screamer, possibly deflected, then the floodgates will open. Our only hope of anything, even a massively optimistic cheeky point, is to delay the aforementioned blammo, and not give away a stupid penalty or fee kicks around the box.

Good luck to all those attending. COYB

[GrandOldTeam]

If Calvert Lewin wasn't fit to be in the squad Vs Wolves after all that time off how's he starting Vs Man City? ?

I'd have thought introduce off bench Vs Man City and Man Utd to get him starting Vs Brighton.

Ev-er-tooooon.

Just sums up the club. Everyone has is panicking and the manager has lost the plot

There's no evidence he can start twice in 3 days. This game is a write off so why risk a player with enormous injury problems. We can beat Brighton at home with him.
