i reckon with the fact we have full squad and various options this could be an easy win - i don’t care how we get 3 points 1 nil will do - that will leave us 8 wins from Prem - exciting ain’t it

Id like to see us and Middlesborough go up in the autos and would be nice if the likes of Millwall or Preston won the playoffs instead of the parachute clubs like Ipswich

Means we have more chance of staying up next season lol

I would be, EMC has been our best attacker for a while now. He starts and comes off on 60 imo.

He’s played more minutes than any other forward tho. And has often come on off the bench in midweek games.

I think we will win this 2-0, 0-0 at HT.

Won't be as easy as it was at the Den, but I think we'll have enough to get us over the line in the second half. Having options off the bench now is exciting.

I do hope we're a bit better at the back, though. Leicester could have had 2 or 3 before HT if chances had gone their way

I'd make a 3 changes for tomorrow. Woolf for Lati (for his physical prescence) Sakamoto for Esse, and Eccles for Torp. Although the fact EMC played the full 90 on Saturday, suggests Frank might start YMH tomorrow

Millwall are in very good form and JDS will have a real challenge trying to keep Azeez quiet. IMO Both our fullbacks will need more support from our wingers than they experienced in the first half yesterday, if we are to win.

He’ll have his hands full next week too. Norwich have signed a Canadian winger that looks like he’s never finished a bowl of cornflakes but he’s strong fast and tricky.

Agreed I think Saka comes in for Esse and EMC starts but comes off earlier than usual for a decent rest.

Rotation will surely be the key now we have a few more options in the attack. It's really hard to decide who should play. Rudoni seems to be nailed on for every game. BTA will have longer I expect, he looked ready to go. I think wright may start this one, he looked very up for it on Saturday, likewise Sakamoto. All five attacking subs in the second half. I reckon we'll probably beat them . They get a lot of good results but we seem to have their number recently.

Esse will be up for it being his old club, think he may well start!

It's lovely to be able to bring lots of fresh attacking options on with, say, half an hour to go.

Wolf maybe coming in for Lati due to the physical battle that could ensue.

I can sense a winning streak brewing again.
The win against Leicester will blow away any small doubts that were maybe creeping into the camp

I certainly wouldn’t be bringing wolf in for Lati
Minny may get minutes
Wright may start after his sub appearance on Saturday

Millwall have been a consistently hard team to beat in recent seasons. I think they are stronger this season and more of a threat. The previous win against them is meaningless.

It will be a tough game but one we can come through. The Rock is starting to roll again....keep pushing lads.

Surprised so many would drop Esse. Looked exciting in both games, needs minutes and playing against his old club you’d think he would put a bit more in. Add that Saka, as much as I love and rate him, was average for ages before his excellent cameo off the bench on Saturday. Esse for 60/70 mins.

There’s going to be squad rotation as we’ve played only a few days ago.

It’s nice to be really looking forward to games.

It doesn’t feel that many years ago I was only going out of routine / it was always something I’d done with my Dad - and the match itself was an afterthought, and often something to try and forget.

Albeit I’m away with work and relying on trains to get back in time and not get cancelled - which I’m not overly confident about.

Also random slightly panicked thought; I am going to have my work bag with a laptop in. Am I going to be allowed to bring that in?!

Anyone tried before?

Their lot seem to be up for this one & a similar start to Leicester …… straight at us , so we’ve got to be better & get into them .
With their physical approach & height , a return of Wolfie could pay dividends ?

According to their forum theyve only sold 600 tickets. Piss poor but could be our lowest attendance for a while

Can't wait to get up there. Few empty seats or not I think it'll be bouncing tonight everyone I speak to is on such a high from Saturday. Ipswich home to Bristol who I thought were a good side, and Boro away to Stoke. Do our job and it could all look very nice this week! Cmon city

I reckon there are around 500-700 left in home areas (which tbf is damn good going). So it'll probably be 29K. So far QPR has been the lowest - 29,015.
