Their supporters will be building up for this one, big derby for them, personally behind blues, baggies and Coventry on my local derby radar, just another match I want us to win. Them lot have spent more time going on about how much better they are than us over the last few years, rather than enjoying the moment.
Saying all that, they have a really top manager & have had a very good team for three years or so. Losing Himinez after selling Jota is a blow for them. They still have a good midfield that we’ll have to get to grips with and Smith will have to come up with a better plan than last year for Traore, not sure who will support Targett down the left as it doesn’t seem a role suited to Jack (doubling up on Traore).
Should hopefully be a good time to play them, 1-2 (Grealish, Watkins).
