No, we must win our home games and beat the other 'top' sides

Draw is a banker I think. Unfortunately that will be 2 from 6 and not quite hitting the ground running. Maybe for once I'm being pessimistic.
I don't think Utd offer much in attack tbh. First home game we must come out with no fear and sod it with all guns blazing. We must just go for wins in this league.
Southampton did it at Man City. They didn't sit back and get slaughtered did they? If they keep playing like that they will stay up for sure. We need to do the same!

Hmm, i would settle for draw. It is early days so keep unbeaten and start to gel. Victory's will come in time. Be nice to win but i think avoiding defeat must be priority. Saying that do not want us sitting back and hoping for it. just play the game and see where it takes us.

If we are going to be serious about this league, this is a 6 pointer. Just because it's early in the season doesn't make it less important.
Being the home team we need to win or give them the advantage.
I don't feel like we are performing to the level expected however. While a draw shouldn't be considered good enough, right now I'd probably take it.
We will get a good indication of where we are tomorrow anyway.

Too early to call it a six pointer?I would definately take a draw and be over the moon with a win!

Wouldn't mind a draw. Would just like to see us have more than 35% possession.

A draw with a good performance would be okay but we really need to get the wins at home as I think away we are still going to be more miss than hit.
Interesting to see what changes are made with Fleck defo out now and the defence looking very vulnerable on Saturday I thought.

One of our main title rivals. I am sorry but a win is a minimum. If Thorn and the team are serious about promotion then anything less than win is a poor result.

These players are better than theirs and we someone who can make himself chances from nothing in Cody. The finishes were poor on Saturday but he has and will get goals. Never too early for a must win. They have lost some great players. All down to how we're setup I fear

Cody got into great positions against Yeovil.
The guy is warming up. Put a £10 on him scoring 2 goals against the blades tomorrow.
We have better players than all the teams. It's just the time factor we have to get this new team to gel.
For me Baker is in for Fleck tomorrow. Mcsheffrey looks out of it right now.

Hold on, if a win is the minimum, what's the maximum?!

They've also lost three of their best players in Evans, Lowton and Williamson since then.

A defeat would make Saturday very interesting.

A draw would be ok objectively speaking when you consider the opposition, but balls to that. Show me we mean business for once, City.
I'm getting almost excited that we've got a proper game, even if it is against a team that's too familiar for all the new faces we get to see this season.

I just can't understand the mentality of "being happy with a draw"? It's ONE point! I expect to see the City go for it every game and win! If they only get a draw I'm always downhearted - it's two points lost as far as I can see. And a loss - well, that's just devastating, especially at home! I want OUT of this league and back to where I've watched the City for most of my supporting life - in the top tier! So sod wanting a bloody draw!

A lot of their points were accumulated when Ched Evans was there, they really struggled when they lost him.
I think we will win one nil Cody.

Massively overrated?
They finished just short of automatic promotion on the very last day last season, only lost 10 games all season, amassed 90 pts, scored 92 goals and had a + goal difference of 41.
Didnt ched evans score about 75% of their goals and isnt he in prison mow?

Correct. They've also lost a guy that scored about 15, so thats 99% of their goals left
