We all know football is unpredictable and that Wagner doesn't like to do what people expect. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bouncing Owl Posted May 9, 2017 Share Posted May 9, 2017 They will line up like this; Coleman Smith Hefele Schindler Lowe Hogg Mooy Kachunga Brown Van La Parra Wells I suggest we close their defenders down and don't allow them to play from the back and get Mooy on the ball resulting in them playing long balls which we should mop up easily. They have had an excellent season but I have a suspicion that they may be feeling the effects of a high octane pressing game in a 46 game championship. We should be fresher. Key players to watch - Smith, Mooy and Brown Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
i used to be sc_owl Posted May 9, 2017 Share Posted May 9, 2017 I think their focus will be to tighten defensively. They will really want to avoid conceding in their home leg as we will score at Hillsborough. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
offalyowl Posted May 9, 2017 Share Posted May 9, 2017 I'd like us to win but most importantly is that we get at least 1 away goal to bring back to Hillsboro Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JackSWFC Posted May 9, 2017 Share Posted May 9, 2017 I think they will try and play their normal style, then revert to hoofing it up to their center backs in our box for the last 10 minutes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sherlyegg Posted May 9, 2017 Share Posted May 9, 2017 Think they will go Billy Whizz for it at theirs. My only concern is a lucky 1-0 to them, then at ours we hit the bar 4 times, cleared off the line 4 times, 16 corners, 2 cert pens and a dodgy one all turned down. Ref booed off...It does happen, only chance they have imho Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Orlando_Trustful Posted May 9, 2017 Share Posted May 9, 2017 They have to go for it at some point during the home leg, that is when I think we will pick them off. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The only way is S6 Posted May 9, 2017 Share Posted May 9, 2017 I think they'll shiit themselves & freeze. Strange ko time, home crowd very expectant in the first leg & their bogey side in town. Also, an inexperienced keeper, behind a first team that hasn't played together for over 3 weeks. One mistake & their backsides will go imo. Grab 'em like an owls talons around a terrier's throat.

Adem Poric Posted May 9, 2017 Share Posted May 9, 2017 I wouldn't be surprised if we came out of the first leg with a deficit. Everyone on here seems incredibly confident that we'll roll them over. We won't. I'll take a draw now. There's no doubting we have more quality and more depth but they are a good team. Carlos will have us set up pretty cagily I think.

Greenhgate Owl Posted May 9, 2017 Share Posted May 9, 2017 they'll need a 2 goal lead going in to the second leg to have a chance of getting through to the final.im 100%certain we'll win at Hillsborough. top of head we only loss away once by 2 goals (burton 3-1) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BIG D Posted May 9, 2017 Share Posted May 9, 2017 Their full back was on Sky today saying how momentum is key and how they had just beaten us and them and Reading were the form teams He did have trouble talking in a straight line though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
