Bournemouth (away) pre-match thread

[Uncle Wally One Ball]

Draw

 

[Big Yaya Wilko 12]

Can't see us winning this one at all.

Draw or loss written all over it.

Personal pride , professionalism desire for Europe against the bigger better clubs than us again would or should ensure a level of performance and result against a Championship quality side ( with respect ) that would nail three points and springboard us to fight for the top three spots notwithstanding the top two positions are nailed on not to be us and third is most likely out of reach but take fourth with some degree of flair and intent.

Anything less and its certain that this club still has a long way to go before it can be considered a top football club.

Although we are having a poor league campaign , we will be a big scalp for Bournemouth , and their players will be up for this , where as our players and manager will have one eye on the champs league , looking at our current away form , would be surprised if we get anything here , we could be 6th in the table after the weekend . But i wouldnt be surprised if we went to PSG and got a result , i believe MP is sacrificing our league position to go as far as possible in the champs league ,he won't be here next season ,so why should he give a shit if we finish in the top 4 , he might get some perverse enjoyment if he ends managing a club like Shaktar in the champs league next season , and Pep is toiling in the Europa.

If that was the case he should have got the bullet long ago.

Winning from is good from , no reason why we can't win both , Bournemouth is by far the easier of the two games and good teams don't make sacrifices.

Compromising at least in the field of battle on a football field is a sign of weakness.

Pep disagrees

Shit - we change our clocks this weekend so it is a 2:00am kick-off - better be an entertaining game instead of the drab games of the past months.

We have been compromising for the majority of the season then , because i have not seen much of the battling qualities required , lets hope a couple of fresh players like Nasri and KDB can provide the impetus.

No Yaya, no hart, no Komps, no Sterling and having to rely on KDB and Nasri to bail us out of the shit.
Could this get any worse?
Well remember when Benjani was our main goal threat. In fact, remember when we brought David James on as a centre forward!
