Title: I think we can beat City today.................
Post by: Tooting legend on December 21, 2013, 09:56:31 AM
I think we can beat city today I am going for 2-1....Yes they are scoring for fun at home but they haven't been great on the road.

Then our next 4 games after, Norwich, Hull, West Ham and Sunderland I am looking at 12 points from these games.

Many may think I am being optimistic but we will see........

The club should, and i'm sure, do, expect to get points from all their games, and in my experience the points don't always come where you expect them, but often from where you don't expect them.

I think we can , as in are capable, of winning today, even though it seems unlikely on paper.

2-2 draw. We go down 2-0 and pull back 2 goals.

I just hope we play with wingers. So we can exploit the weak right back position they are in. Also they have a back four who haven't played that much together, so I am expecting a few mistakes. On paper they should win, but I do think it will not be as easy as the media are projecting. COYW

It's about time this 'fulhamish' thing I keep reading/hearing about kicked in.

why not, we are playing well. should be a good game.
we do need to start scoring a bit from free play and if we do that we will beat city.

I hope im wrong, but this will be our toughest home game this season and we rolled over (albeit playing some what better) to a very poor spurs side

I don't think we'll get spanked but do think we'll lose. I'll be very happy if we can somehow scrape a point. Just a shame they're on top form.

Perhaps the foul weather will be a leveller?

I think we were unlucky, and didn't roll over against Spurs - who are a top side.

But preferably if we score in the last minute as opposed to conceding in the last minute.

I'll be there....Sky is predicting a spanking.
I'm hoping against hope we come good.
Every week I rise to optimism and hope.
Lets hope this one is better than those of the past.
The messy weather should help us.

I don't see us doing better than 1-3, perhaps even 1-4. Yes, we're playing better under Rene than we did under Jol, but City are in top form and we are still weak in several key areas. I think the best we can hope for is a close, well-played loss by a single goal and with no injuries on the FFC side.

If the match had ended a bit early, you'd have got it right on the nose!
