I think it needs to be either El Ghazi or Tresequet and Vassilev. We need some kind of outlet up the other end of the pitch.

Agreed we need someone working their arse off pressing their defence.

Trezeguet. He is non stop. I like him. I am not entirely sure why, because I sometimes think he is fucking abysmal, but I just have a feeling that he could end up some sort of cult hero here. And not in a Salifou type way.

I'd take a cheeky 0-0 and run around Hove wearing a claret & blue Dick Turpin Mask. That said, I'm fearing the worst & preparing to endure a load of patronising bantz in my local tomorrow - via a few smug neo-BHA 'supporters'. Meh.  ::)

3-0 defeat c/w plenty rubbish post-match comment from DS.

Triffick.

He looked lively when he came on against Man City.

First time I've dared to look at this forum after last Sunday.

Win. Pretty. Pretty. Please.

Draw at best, I suspect. :'(

I'm sure you'll be fine - although I would heartily recommend going bonkers in the unlikely event of Villa going one up. You'll no doubt have a few folk around you tutting; followed by a few pissed-up heroes (several rows back) screaming for a steward. Admittedly you'll be cheerfully escorted off the premises, but you can get an early train back into town & enjoy a well-earned pint or 3: whilst recognising you made a timely & glorious escape before witnessing an inevitable Albion goal-fest.

You know it makes sense!   ;)

Plan works brilliantly other than I have 3 children with me, if we get a last minute winner though, I'm on the pitch !

Anything that doesnt increase the gap between 17th & ourselves will do here.

A loss and Bournemouth getting a draw at Norwich would put us down to 19th today.

Oh I see. Well in that case, let's hope your young 'uns don't suffer at the hands of our hapless lot this arvo; and you get to fulfill your highly unlikely one-man pitch invasion ambition.    :D

He did, didn't he. He was pretty much the only one that.

I hope he starts today. Composure is what he needs more of.

Me too, I fear I'll be given away by my constant sobbing.

Anything changed?

No. Emphatic loss.
