Big three games coming up. This is a very winnable game but it certainly won’t be easy. Need a massive bounce back game from everyone; manager on down to get something here. After the abomination that we saw against Man City I hope our confidence didn’t take too much of a kicking.
I reckon we might win.
2-1 AEG and CH. Maupay inevitability for them.
I dont know what to make of Brighton, Ive seen them play 5 times, they've dominated for long periods of each game playing some excellent football but haven't won any of the games.
If we see a repeat of Elmo and Taylor as wingbacks then we will lose again. Guilbert has to start, fuck knows were Targett is but I'd be a lot happier with him as left wing back.
Can't see us not conceeding atleast 2, fuck knows what we'll do up the other end.
I'll go for 2-2.
A masterclass of attacking football from our new strike force ......
I'll go 0-0
2-1 defeat I'm afraid. Brighton play a very fluent possession based game. They were very good at Villa Park, the sending off really helped Villa. Doubt we'll have a striker in to start the game.
I will be amazed if Maupay doesn’t score. It seems written.
1-1 draw
They are organised. We haven't settled on a formation and have no strikers*. Loss.
*despite having #2 in Hogan and Kodjia.
We need a win and we will.
1-2 Villa
Reserve judgement until team selection,
Beaten them twice this season. Hope the lads have the belief and the balls that they can do it again. 1-2 to us.😯
Two absolute crunch 6 pointers coming up, and its inexcuseable we haven't managed to bring in at least 1 new striker for these games.
Can see us forcing a draw if Kodjia plays but can see us taking a beating again if its a similiar horror show system as against Man City, and i really wouldn't put it past Smith to use it again.
3-1 to them, Maupay to get at least 1 of them.
Cue Smith mentioning not having any 1st choice strikers in his post match comments as a thinly veiled dig at Suso. Tis in the stars.
