duke313 Posted January 29 Share Posted January 29 Will be a tough game, but we should be winning this at home. We've created enough chances in last few games, we just aren't taking them. If we start being more clinical in front of goal, we should win this. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Fun Factory Posted January 29 Share Posted January 29 Quarter past eight? In old mid-week games that would be halftime. Just a reminder that its another train strike week, so check on the trains before you go. And also its a over time ban so they can just randomly cancel services.

Vive_La_Villa Posted January 29 Share Posted January 29 (edited) I’m confident we’ll win this. They need to win this too so doubt they’ll be sitting back. Edited January 29 by Vive_La_Villa Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GlobalVillan Posted January 29 Share Posted January 29 (edited) We seem to have a habit of giving each other a bit of a pasting in this fixture, whoever is at home. That said, their record at VP is better than ours up at SJP, (then again, it couldn't be worse really.) Thankfully, we are very strong at home and they are at a bit of a crossroads in their season. If ever there was a time for revenge. It's now. 6-1. Ollie hat trick. (Or a scrappy 1-0) Edited January 29 by GlobalVillan Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Herman22 Posted January 29 Share Posted January 29 So Pau, Digne and Duran all out. JJ likely out but closer than the others. I think we are a significantly poorer team when we don’t have Pau. He’s so much better on the ball than Lenglet and he passing range is a different level too. Newcastle will play a high press game not dissimilar to Chelsea last Friday night. We need to play around/ through that press if want to get the 3 points here. Both their full backs are poor when opponents run at them. No point in crossing the ball when Watkins will be up against Botman and Schaar. My real concern is set pieces. Newcastle have a big physical team. Burn, Botman, Schaar, Isak, etc and in Tripper they have a guy who can deliver from dead balls. Hopefully we will get the holy grail of more clean sheets with a good attacking performance and a 2-3 nil win. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
supermon Posted January 29 Share Posted January 29 Newcastle know how to break our high line, they did in pre season and the return fixture, going to be a tough game. I'd take a shitty 1-0 to get us back on track 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

foreveryoung Posted January 29 Share Posted January 29 If we can keep it 0-0 to half time with the intensity they play at, they will tire in the second half, then we should be able to turn it on and see emm off. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wedge Posted January 29 Share Posted January 29 (edited) I really hope I'm wrong (and I was about Chelsea beating us on Friday in the cup), but I really think we could be in for a struggle tomorrow night, it's vital the fans (like the vociferous away end did for 90 minutes at Stamford Bridge) do their bit to help the boys over the line like they did against Man City and Arsenal this season.

wedge Posted January 29 Share Posted January 29 (edited) I'd go with: Martinez Cash Konsa Lenglet Moreno Kamara Luiz McGinn Tielemans Bailey Watkins Edited January 29 by wedge Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GingerCollins29 Posted January 29 Share Posted January 29 No Pau so we will struggle with their high press. Not confident Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tomaszk Posted January 30 Share Posted January 30 (edited) We've nearly won every game at home but one for a year. Newcastle have beaten one team away this season. Sheffield Utd. We have to win this. Edited January 30 by Tomaszk 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rugeley Villa Posted January 30 Share Posted January 30 Need to be winning this . Fail to do so and I can see us losing top 4 very soon . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
It's Your Round Posted January 30 Share Posted January 30 I think we’ll win it. We weren’t terrible against Chelsea and actually created some good chances. I think we’ll create plenty tonight and Watkins will get back to scoring ways. Should be a good atmosphere at home and under the lights, and the taste of revenge in the air.
