Bear in mind that Thomas came on fresh against some proper cloggers that had already played 80 minutes. He won't go past people like that normally.

He also won’t pass the ball.  I wasn’t impressed by his decision making at all.  All our wingers are greedy and poor choices.  

 

When Monga is flowing its effortless, we need that at the start of the game to try and get the EFL cloggers booked. 

 

To me, our wingers sadly look like they have hit a glass ceiling because of the lack of actual tactics.  Too much focus on trying to skin when the ball into space has cut out that need and put the on the front foot quicker.

Didn’t Vardy miss about 5 chances against these last time? One of the Easter games I think? 

Yes, one of which was the worst that I've ever seen him miss (and probably any other strikers that I can think of). Certainly much premature celebration in the away end when the ball breaks to him in front of a 2 thirds empty goal with keeper stranded on the other post. It was a shocking day out and one of the very worst of the Enzoball era.

We can win this.

 

They've been inconsistent for a while now. I think they'll end up finishing mid table.

[Muzzy_no7]

Lose this and the Derby win is almost meaningless. 
 

Need at least 4 pts from these next two.

You're right but Silko's ability is still unknown and game time reveals more. I love the way Fatawu plays the game, but all positions need to be fought for, it brings the best out of them.

His stats last season were poor and then he got injured and was out for the rest of it. He was older that season than when Fatawu ripped the Championship up in 23/24 so tough to just say "oh but he's young".

 

He must be great in training or have something most people are missing as he's show little so far. 

 

As always with our (sort of) youth lads I hope I'm wrong and he tears it up for us.

I always love the 'we lose this and that last win was meaningless' takes. Like, if we hadnt won the last game we would have three fewer points. I would rather lose this with those three points on the board than not!

[Happy Fox]

How many times have we won back to back games, I think it's only twice this season so far?

[Leicesterpool]

I think two draws from upcoming two games would be decent enough. Try and make us hard to beat. If somehow we can go into Christmas unbeaten and in touching distance off the play offs that would be good enough for me.

They attack quite aggressively leaving space in behind. Similar to Derby, which is why they’re fairly inconsistent. Play like we did against Derby and we should bag three points here. 
 

 

What am I doing, talking with optimism?

Lovely people here, I’ve just bought a hot-dog for only a quid off a couple of geezers set up with a barbecue on some waste ground. He offered 10 for a fiver, might go back for more

Looking forward to this game, felt we played very well against Derby… so hopefully I can enjoy this just as much.. I know, 2 nil to Bristol incoming after 25 mins  

[JimJams]

Get off to a good start.  Despite us essentially winning the Derby game in the first half, I thought they were edging it until we got that first goal.  Then we stepped up.

I’m going 1-2. Bobby and Evans with the winner.

We could be 3-0 up or 3-0 down by halftime, or somewhere in between.

 

Very difficult one to call given both teams in equal form and relatively inconsistent.

[lcfcfoz]

1-4

That must be the stall I've just been, I asked for onions and he added another 2 sausages instead.

 

Not sure what's going on.

Bold prediction.  You're really sticking your neck out there.

Guys - given I couldn't give a **** largely about us this season. Is it possible to watch this game via Sky Go? I know you couldn't before when we were last in the Milltown Championship
