I think we are playing them at the worst  time. It really is make or break for them tonight. Lose and they are out. I expect them to come at us from the off.

I'd say that's quite good though? It's where teams sit back that we tend to struggle. Attack, and we'll through ball them to death. Pew pew!

Getting excited now.

Although we all want to get through in the top 8 (Presumably as you are then seeded to play a lower ranked team) - i would imagine the marketing department would be more than happy to take another couple of games and charge top dollar - i assume we get some cut of the away leg as well?

It’s worth more to win and qualify in the top 8.

Forest picked up that Grealish-a-like from Portugal in the summer for Ł7m, absolute buttons these days.

It’s a right pantomime mate

Sounds like Watkins and Duran up front.

Apologies if this was posted earlier, came straight to the last page.

ITK or just a hunch?

Not sure this is the game to try something new even if their manager has said that we are predictable.

I imagine he's read Emery's comments yesterday where he says "The next challenge I have is to play with both. We are trying and I will try again to play with both. We have to keep the balance, tactically, playing with both. The team is always first."

Yes, that’s what I heard. Some of the podcasters are quoting that and seem convinced. Not sure it will work but then again he might be kidding us on.

Carlos v Openda ( round 2 ) could get tasty if he starts.

Remember it's on Amazon for anyone looking for it on TNT.

I’m watching Liverpool on TNT now (well, it’s on while I’m reading my phone). Will I have to turn over then?
