Their heads are completely gone, can only hope their players feel the same
Luke 0-9 Cov pleaseTheir heads are completely gone, can only hope their players feel the same
That draw against Notts was a tad fortunate alsoDidn’t we draw last 2 PO semis when we were at home 1st leg against NC and Boro?
Doesn't matter if you capitalize it or put it in a fancy font, it still isn't a "must win".Must win. With a capital MUST.
I’m discounting any historic h2h results or recent form between us and them. This is gloves off for both.

I think you know the answer to that one.If we lose will you finally accept the next one is must win?
We'll have far too much for them and will take at least a two goal lead up there. The tie's won; get ready for the Wembley "must-win" game.Can see 1st leg being another 0-0. Sunderland parking the bus and countering to avoid conceding, in the hope they can sneak it under their own lights in the 2nd leg.

There is a reason - we don't have to win the home leg to win the tie. I struggle to see why you refuse to acknowledge this simple fact.There’s absolutely no reason why this one isn’t must win. Fool. Shove your Americanisms too.
He just won't train as much, need his presence in both legs, a gap then until the finalThat he'd done really well to return from injury quickly but they would have to manage it.

It's not my Americanism.
You’d have us take a deficit up there.‘The tie is won’ is even more foolish.
Please point out in my reply to you where I predicted the result if the home leg.You’d have us take a deficit up there.‘The tie is won’ is even more foolish.
Please point out in my reply to you where I predicted the result if the home leg.
If you're unable to accept the possibility that we could draw or even lose the home leg and still win the tie, then there's no point continuing this exchange and you're beyond help.
"The tie is won" was my response to another poster. I'm optimistic.
Fine. There is no contradiction there.Nah. ‘It’s not must win’ and ‘the tie is won’. Think we’ll stick with those.
Styles make matches and theirs really suits ours. People did wonder if Carrick would adapt his side against us yesterday, he didn’t. It’s not straightforward to suddenly get your team familiar with very different tactics just for one game.
Fine. There is no contradiction there.
Bobby had ice packs on his calf straight after the game yesterdayThat he'd done really well to return from injury quickly but they would have to manage it.

They have some decent players but we have something they don't. A decent team. There's a good chance that this tie will be over after the first leg.Sunderland is who all we preferred in the PO’s let’s be honest.
They’ve got some good players and it won’t be easy, but got to make the most of this first leg at home. Take a lead up to Sunlun if we can.
Again, please quote where I said that. You're being remarkably obtuse. I made a statement of fact - we can lose the home leg and still win the tie. You refuse to acknowledge this. At no point did I say I'd be comfortable taking a loss to the SoL. I predicted that we will win the home leg and go on to win the tie. In response to your question, I'd agree that losing the home leg would leave us with perhaps too much to do.You’d be comfortable taking a loss up there with how bad we are away and from losing positions?
must win
Considering we lost 2 must win games on the bounce with just 3 games to go and still went up a place to 5th....If we lose will you finally accept the next one is must win?
Lampard didn't rule out EMC being fit again.Are they going to play the same CB pairing as the last game?
Is there an argument for playing BTA on the left and Wright through the middle as he terrorised them so much last time
Someone told me it was only a one match banIs JDS still suspended, and if not, would you bring him in for Bidwell?
He wants to be Bobby's girlWhat did he say about Bobby?
I think the same. Hard to change a winning XI.Someone told me it was only a one match ban
I dunno if you drop bidwell now though. Probably go with same 11 again
