Spoony Posted February 7, 2013 Share Posted February 7, 2013 We wont play any of the sensible line ups and formations above. We will play the same shit with a leaky 3/5 man defence, whatever the **** it's supposed to be. 3-1 Spam Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Spoony Posted February 7, 2013 Share Posted February 7, 2013 If Carroll is on form it's going to be another embarrassment Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rjw63 Posted February 7, 2013 Share Posted February 7, 2013 Oh look - another "must win" game. Our last three home games have been "must win". We didn't. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dont_do_it_doug. Posted February 7, 2013 Share Posted February 7, 2013 Hoping that some of the top sides we're facing in the coming weeks have had their fates decided already i.e. Man City losing their next game so that they can't possible catch up to utd. Like last season you mean? Oh wait... Anyway, think we'll win this one. Delph in please. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CI Posted February 7, 2013 Share Posted February 7, 2013 We've actually played well overall the last 3 hours of football Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kevos Posted February 7, 2013 Share Posted February 7, 2013 There has been just a hint in our last two matches that we may be waking up to the desperate situation we are in. This could well be our first three points for a hell of a long time...here's hoping. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KHV Posted February 8, 2013 Share Posted February 8, 2013 I remember when west ham at home was a guaranteed three points. wasn't that long ago. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
coda Posted February 8, 2013 Share Posted February 8, 2013 There's quite a bit of optimism in this thread. This worries me. I can see us getting bullied by a typical Allardyce team. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mottaloo Posted February 8, 2013 Share Posted February 8, 2013 Keep Nolan quiet..especially at corners...never mind about Carroll so much. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
roonst83 Posted February 8, 2013 Share Posted February 8, 2013 Keep Nolan quiet..especially at corners...never mind about Carroll so much. Yep Nolan's biggest strength is (one of) our biggest weaknesses - i.e. winning the second ball. We continually lose the second ball, be it from throw-ins, free kicks, goal kicks etc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
avfcdave Posted February 8, 2013 Share Posted February 8, 2013 Same team I'd have gone with at Everton. I fear Bennett would be the easy target for the Allardyce long diagonal which Carroll would win every time. Delph/KEA for Sylla if he shows no signs of calming down from the raving mad man he was at Goodison. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Morpheus Posted February 8, 2013 Share Posted February 8, 2013 (edited) im going to back us to win this, i think we are turning a corner i have a feeling we will win this 2-0 'Big Sam' will know all about our weaknesses at set plays and has the players to expose that. He will also have noted how easily Clark is pushed off the ball and will make sure Nolan and Carroll know about that. We can however get at their defence, but i just don't see us keeping a clean sheet. Edited February 8, 2013 by Morpheus Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He has been awful all season long Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We need to be johnny on the spot and clear up any droppings this Sunday. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jimzk5 Posted February 8, 2013 Share Posted February 8, 2013 (edited) i had a feeling we would lose at home to wigan, had a feeling we would lose as home to southampton, knew that we would lose to newcastle, but have a feeling this is where we turn the corner. 2-0 win.
