Morrisons not to.

We just need to put the ball in the netto

 

[ChicagoBlue]

If we can just concentrate on having the creative players on the ball with a “Carrefour-ward” mentality instead of sideways and backwards passes, we’d do better!

Aldi fans know we should win if we put in a Lidl effort!

I don’t think they are rubbish. I think they’re just in a terrible run of form.

They finished 20 points above relegation last season. They’ve got a good fast and hardworking midfield who’s are dangerous the break (see their goal v Newcastle below, exactly the kind of goals we’ve been conceding this season), signed a decent striker and are no worse a side than, say, Forest:

At home to Newcastle that^ was their team, they also have Hwang who I rate and Guedes (although Kilman was a huge loss). They were the better side for 70 minutes in that game, played some decent stuff and should have gone 2-0 up on a few occasions. But their confidence is shot, Newcastle upped their game and they scored two great goals.

I’m still expecting a tough game against a team who’ll be desperate and who I think will be well clear of relegation come the end of the season. This is exactly the sort of game we’ve dropped points in under Pep over the years. But it has to be said their confidence and form is terrible at the moment.

I think we need to think on who we play in midfield, we need players who’ll be able to keep up with theirs.

Their games have been Liverpool arsenal chelsea Newcastle Brentford forest villa, not the easiest first 7 tbf

Supermarket puns regarding a team that spoke out against us in court you say? Aldi Morrisons Lidl City Asda win

 

[johnny crossan]

Beating us last season has kept their rat-faced manager in a job - he knows he's on borrowed time - their Chinese owners are not that inscrutable.

Unless I've missed something, we seem to have escaped an international break without injuries.
