Put your current thoughts on this thread and there will be some guaranteed bouncibilty after the game.

I think we'll have 27% possession and three shots on target, we'll lose 3-0

Sussex but not by the sea
I'm not going but I predict.....
Utter chaos at the new catering outlets, no students, at least a 20 minute wait for anything.
On the pitch we'll lose 3-1 (March) but overall do 'OK'.
I'm just praying for no injuries.

Game is the final turning up of the notch in the pre-season training, and a true test of readiness for Man City next week. Won't be reading too much into the score, or even the performance. Atletico Madrid are a class act and a planet above most of the run-of-the-mill donkeys we'll meet in the Prem. Not sure it'll teach us very much to be honest. The near-sellout crowd will be largely there to watch the near-GODS of the Albion's opposition, rather than the Albion. Much like half a dozen of the Prem games at the Amex this season really.

I think we'll draw one all, struggle to keep possession and be hanging on a bit at the end. I predict plenty of bed wetting and general moaning about catering, atmosphere etc. Hopefully no injuries.

Destroyed. 3-0. 30% possession.

Unless they don't really give a shit, in which case it will be 0-0.

We should be beating teams like Atletico Madrid.

They're just a bunch of glorified waiters, we are Premier League...

Zero goals for the Albion. AM are very defensive minded and do it brilliantly.

Unlike other Spanish clubs, they don't care about possession.

Albion to huff and puff, which might just allow Atletico's 8-1-1 to pick us off on the counter, with their rope-a-dope tactics.

Bus and train queues chocker by 75 minutes.

I think we will a good account of ourselves but can't see us scoring.

It's more of an exercise in getting up to the intensity levels needed for the following week and thereafter. A chance for the newbies to experience playing for new club and at the Amex.

Main thing is no cards or injuries
