      Can see everything clicking this weekend; score early and the game will open up. Can see Fab or Hendo starting after the last display.
      We should be giving Virgil the armband now.

      we know we will do well in the big games City and Spurs etc
      Do we?  We didn't do particularly well last season, only winning 2/10 against the top 6 in the league.

      You'll have a ball.  Get there early to soak up the atmosphere and enjoy the entertainment around the ground.  Which stand are you in?

      i put 3-0 win. That is what I will put for every game, eventually I will be right.
      Think it will be difficult for 30 mins as they'll be buzzing after stuffing Utd.  Once we get the first, reckon we'll get 3 and keep a clean sheet, making us both right!

      As many defeats as draws; won 2, drew 4, lost 4. 

      Need a big improvement this season to be in the mix and I'm confident we'll get that.

      Like most of you have said the only change I'd make is Henderson for Milner.

      That's how I see it.

      I'd also like to see Henderson actually replace Milner position wise, and play on the right/centre a bit further up.
      He's actually a very good crosser and gets really good whip and curl on them.

      No changes for me, two wins on the bounce those who played are deserving of another game, can't sea the seagulls shitting on us so its down to how many we can batter them by ?


      I'm saying 4-0 but could be 5,6, or 7, anyhoo enough to take us top and let city chase us for a while.

      Yeah I imagine that might be the only change but I would prefer it if Henderson didn’t try his inside out cross.
      We don’t really have anybody who is going to challenge the big Brighton CB’s in the air.

      I would prefer to see him pressing up high to regain possession and play in Salah or Mane running in behind.

      For a while at the start of last season, we saw players taking their foot off the gas a bit when we had a comfortable lead, but as the season progressed, we saw more and more that they kept the pressure on, piling up the goals.

      When man u were dominant, they always kept the pressure on, and city did the same last season.

      Like you, I've gone for 4-0, but if we have 4 after 60 mins, I want us to keep going, bring on a couple of hungry players, and keep hitting them.

      I still can't believe he was converted into a deeper midfielder. He could have been an exceptional/world class box-boxer , but instead, he is a good #6.

      Yeah get them crosses in for the big man up front  :D

      There doesn't need to be a big man if the cross is good enough.

      We put plenty of crosses into the box, both along the floor and in the air.

      Think Shaq and Studge will start!



      Why ?

      Why change anything, unless there is something underlying we don't know about i can't see Jürgen just changing for the hell of it, same X1 that done the bubble blowers & the Crystal tips, only this time i can see us running riot and expanding the goals for column.

      Right, Mo, Sadio and Bobby can all score w their head. None are particularly tall.

      Looks like a good bit of technical work done in training this week. Hopefully.some touches improved from Monday and should be the biggest difference made to reach that bigger scoreline. Third clean sheet in a row would be excellent
