sherlyegg Posted August 13, 2019 Share Posted August 13, 2019 Think we will trounce em mesen, 3 or 4 - 0. They don't like fast direct sides....though if we go jos-esque and play with no strikers and a 3-4-3 line up, we should still scrape a draw Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ChapSmurf Posted August 14, 2019 Share Posted August 14, 2019 Why is everyone mentioning MIllwalls "physical presensce"? They have no more, and no less, physical presence than any other team. I think people are getting confused with their fans from the 70s and 80s. Of course they will make it difficult for us, they are hardly going to roll over, home or away, for another team. Nor are we, or any other team. They are well organised, like any other team at this level should be, so that's no shock. They will be physical, like we will, as the game allows. They will try and hit us on the counter when they can, but they will also take the game to us, being at home. We've done our homework on them, as they will have us. So the difference is quality, and on paper we have that one over on them. It will be a tough game; they always are at this level, but there is no reason why we cannot come back with 3 points. Let's play our game, disrupt theirs, and see what happens. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was just about to agree (I still do) but thought I'd have a quick look at Norwich from last year. Clearly, we aren't getting through the season unbeaten so as with Norwich the key is also to bounce back from disappointment quickly and stringing runs together. We've just won two on the bounce and have started strong, we need to turn that into a run if at all possible and capitalise on the confidence it breeds. I actually think Millwall will be our trickiest game so far but the stats suggest we should get something and we look more than capable. It'd be great to see that belief grow amongst the players if we can continue to play in the same manner, performing consistently and getting positive results along the way.

Good points there, I also had a look at the final championship tables for the last 4 seasons, at least one of the top 2 teams lost 9 or 10 games, which is incredible really, thats almost a quarter of games. Its the draws that are key, they kill you. And not to mention the blunts lost their first 2 games, so were 6pts better off already at this stage. Early days... but were finally looking a prospect. 1-1 win Saturday. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mozzy85 Posted August 14, 2019 Share Posted August 14, 2019 hoping for a 2-0 win really. We should have enough to do them as long as everyone is on it. Keep a clean sheet to give confidence to the keeper and defence and increase that GD more. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
