Midlands Yellow 4,083 Posted August 10, 2023 (edited) Head says 1.1 so I’m going for a 4.1 win. Would be a massive confidence booster and install real belief that this season could be special. Edited August 10, 2023 by Midlands Yellow Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

TheGunnShow 6,019 Posted August 10, 2023 Can't see us getting much out of this one but maybe we're fitter than they are and can cause trouble that way. Otherwise I think it'll be one of those game rearguard actions where we look like we compete well in spells, but they just consistently have the edge in their favour. 2-1 to Southampton.

Indeed, not a happy hunting ground for us, and despite standing in The Milton Road End a few times as a casual fan. I'll say spawn 1-2 win for Norwich.

I actually think Bazunu, the keeper, could be the weak link (think he was the weakest keeper in expected goals/saves in the Premier last season) so shoot on sight might not be a bad idea. They had a heck of a lot of possession against Sheffield Wednesday though - nearer 80% than not. No matter how fit a team is, it's much harder without the ball. That's one lesson that should be obvious after having had Farke as our manager. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I'm going for 3-2 to us, we score first, make a silly mistake just before half time then race out of the blocks to 3-1 in the 2nd before conceding a classy goal in the 82nd and a nervous last 20 minutes (cos of stoppage time)...

splutcho 176 Posted August 10, 2023 Interesting one. Good test of where we're at. We really struggled with a Russell Martin side playing how he wanted them to in the second half of last season. I'd be very happy with a point. 1-1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
The Raptor 1,238 Posted August 10, 2023 Get to the lego shop at 12. Get that set I want. Go back to the hotel. Open a beer 'Just build one bag... ' Get distracted and ignore the frantic 'where the f**** are you' texts. At 4.20(and 2 more cans) finish the lego. Check my phone and remember. ****! I missed the game. They're winning 3-1. Get in!

CardiffCanary 131 Posted August 10, 2023 What’s the latest on ward prowse? Could really do with him not being there also … I can imagine in two months Russ will have that team passing everyone into submission.

The Ward-Prowse and Lavia situations are surely unwanted distractions, especially the former, so it's a good time to play them.

Duncan Edwards 2,271 Posted August 10, 2023 4-0 Southampton The Hull result to look as lucky as it was, Sara to sign for Cambridge United at half-time and Attanasio invading the pitch to screw up and throw his share certificate at Wagner in the 54th minute.
