Tactics against Man City

[HughieG]

Man City away next (in the league).

Personally I think we should go all-out attacking, **** it if we lose 9-0 - we're good enough to take them on and get three or four goals, I reckon Joselu 2, Rondon 1 and Shelvey 1 from the middle of the pitch.

At the end of the day, it's 11 against 11, they can't possibly go on winning. Anyway, if our side plays the way I know they can then we're a threat to all teams as long as we have an attacking mindset.

Hope Rafa stop playing negative footy; he doesn't even have to with the quality we've got! Is this the year we finish in the Top 4?

Come on the Toon.

You're a super duper optimist Hughie but I love it.

Top 4? We are going to win the league, then champions league next season, we get called deluded fans with high expectations so why not say we are going to win the league....

Signing kane, mbappe and de bruyne in January too.

I sense a *****y weensy bit of sarcasm.

If we lose by less than four goals (defending like last season against City), I'll be happy, the gap in class is that great.

But we could have won that on Sunday had we taken them on. Just like we did last season. Three points lost, three more at the weekend and another three if we play like this again against Arsenal.
