We'll have to be prepared for them.

They have no spine though, so keep pressure on them and stop them scoring early doors and I think they'll crumble.

Plus. . . Casemiro at CB against pace of Isaak and Gordon

We need to play on the counter attack. Let the red filth have the ball open up the space in behind, when we've done this of late we've battered teams. Also, sitting deep means the filth's wingers won't have space to exploit.

Against Brighton we tried to control the game and play possession. We aren't there as a team yet. Not with out the likes of Tonali on the pitch. We've always struggled with teams who park the bus under Howe.

With Joelinton back in the side, with more minutes in his legs we can control the game in a more dominant fashion. However, breaking down that low block is still a challenge. Bruno needs to be higher up the pitch to unlock the defences. Sadly he's rarely been in the right positions.

I'm sure with the reintroduction of Tonali, a fully fit J7 & a full pre-season training session we'll be more creative and offer more of a threat to teams who put 11 men in the penalty area.

If we sit a bit deeper and spring the trap to release Isak, Murphy/Barnes & Gordon we'll beat the filth at the swamp on Wednesday.

Hoping for another Howe master class.

If the filth sack Ten Pence before the match and Schhhhhteve is at the helm it would be all the sweeter.

A young boy can dream haha
