I put my lucky Gross t-shirt on this morning.

We're as good as through to the next round, already.
 






I honestly don’t know how some people keep up the negativity, there’s enough negativity in the world at the moment without being relentlessly negative about the everything with the team you support as well, it’s quite impressive that people can be so relentlessly angry.

Perhaps it’s because our manager is Sami Hypia mark two?

Thinking about it, I wonder if we’re going to see a tactical switch at half time.

Contain in first half, than bring on Biss and Tau in second half, attacking switch to two up front against tired legs.

I reckon this is the tactic. I’m willing to give him the benefit of the doubt........... til half time. [emoji23][emoji23]

Well as disappointed as I am with the line up, I will judge at full time how successful it was.

A super big call by the manager, and he will deserve credit or criticism post match as appropriate (I’m sure NSC will not be shy either way).

Until then I’m looking forward to the game and quite excited, it should be an intriguing one. Two good footballing sides.

If our tactics are to stifle then I would have expected Bissouma to be first name on teamsheet.

Let's hope we're not 3 down at half time

I thought Biss wasn’t so great in the 2nd half vs Newport. Maybe giving him just a half is the idea. If Potter is giving him the chance to be the best player on the pitch for 45mins or so, it could be very entertaining.
 










I don’t like anything about our defensive system, the 3 at the back, the zonal marking, the lack of natural full backs meaning we are constantly makeshifting with guys out of position - but I’ve long ago become resigned to that never changing until Potter is gone

West Brom have defeated Wolves and are now only 3 points behind us. Both West Brom and Fulham are closing the gap on us.

I hope you're right. Problem is, the way Leeds play we could find ourselves 3 down at ht

Given Ben White's fine performance against Man City, perhaps Potter feels he doesn't need 2 DMs against Leeds and White deserves to keep his place.

What line up did you clowns want?

I’ve seen the same comments every time this season and the times people have been happy, like SU at home we were absolutely dire, perhaps we are targeting their set pieces weakness?
