I’m hoping our lads will be lifted and not overwhelmed. They won’t be used to playing in front of a full house either.
For raw talent, they are far superior to shrews, but they could get bullied a bit from hardened old pro journeymen.
Gonna be tough, and shrews will no doubt be full on for first 15-20 to tryget a lead to defend. If we can prevent that, as time goes on, I think the lads have the ability to play through them.
I’ve gone for our lads to win 2-1 but depends on the first quarter of the game.
On another note, all the bleating about shrews losing £s due to reduced prices etc. If they were that confident, they’d be looking ahead to a big payday at Chelsea!
Clearly not then 😁
They deffo would have taken an embarrassing beasting if we put the first 11 out.
Like I used to say to the boys I coached over the years.
Fast Feet- Calm Head. Make sure you’ve always got two passes ahead planned, and that gives you an option.
