Next league game

Just the derby then.
Hopefully todays result has knocked their confidence a bit. Ours aint sky high after Burnley, for sure.
Looks like their African contingent will all be available.
Got a good feeling about this one. We win and go above them in the table for the first time this season.

All depends which NUFC turn up.

Our best is way, way above their best, never mind how well they've done this season.

But we all know that football doesn't work like that. Plus, none of us know from one game to the next whether we're going to see the high intensity, high press that was our hallmark...or the dithering, uncertain sloppiness that has characterised our away performances of late.

We're actually capable of producing both in the same game.

It?s gonna be a feisty one in think and we are gonna need our players to keep their heads.

Unfortunately we have Burn, Schar, JL, Bruno and Gordon who are likely to start 😆

They are going to be fearless against us - this may be the game for Elanga to shine as we can use pace to our advantage.

Gordon - Wissa - Elanga to start for me
Our real full backs in the starting 11
And
BDB ONLY at centre back

Leverkusen first mid week. The focus will be on Germany.

However, there is a stink eye on those trampy scumbag down the road for sure.

Someone's getting sent off for sure. I'm just hoping it's not one of our lads.

It'll be Newcastle United win at the Stade de merde!

They'll be aggressive and play on the front foot at home, full of confidence boarding on arrogance as they are at the moment.

That will suit us to sit on the counter and hit them on the break Elanga, Gordon running in behind. Wissa will get more minutes towards the end against tired legs.

The full-back fitness is going to be a challenge. I'm getting tired of hearing (from other channels not so much here, everyone is pretty level headed on their assessment of BDB at L the insane hatred and vicious comments about BDB at LB and towards EH for putting Burn in the LB position.

At this moment there isn't another option. Hall has be managed. Losing him again for a longer period of time this season would mean Dan Burn is nailed on at LB for those matches.

Some fan channels and a group or two I'm in with one foot out of due to the tidal wave of negativity from the vast number of plastic fans insanity are so crazy about the LB situation.

What is the alternative right now? There isn't one.

No one wants BDB at LB but needs must. The lad needs wor support.

Back on subject. The Derby is the match we need right now. A solid performance in Germany and a battling win against those muddy puddle drinking toothless doley scum of Wearside, going into the Christmas fixtures we'll have the wind in our sails.

Tino at LB with Thiaw RB and Burn with Schar/Botman in the middle would be an option when Hall and Trippier aren?t available?
