The head says surely we are due a good game. The head also says - there is no rational reason for backing us away against Watford given our starts to the season and the players available. I also think we will want to give Spurs a good go on Wednesday. That might be the day our season starts.

Would rather the other way around to be honest. We need to get performances going in the league because the last few have stunk.

A good result against Watford sets us up nicely.

Late returning internationals forces Robins into changing the line up and he once again stumbles upon a winning formula.
First win in a ten game unbeaten league run.

Got 0-0 written all over this.

Another club that plays with a low block and tries to counter (even at home).

With City only conceding two shots on target in their 2 defeats can see this being a borefest.

Be a good point though.

They seem to be happy to give Cleverley a bit of time to stamp his authority on them this time around which is very unlike Watford, probs a wise move

To be fair should be an interesting game, robins spoke about a lot of new information and trying new things on the training ground.

Hoping to see Raphael involved from the bench if fit.

Curious without Haji and Saka if we go to a three at the back and use wingbacks to provide the width, could play the box with Mason/Norman and Jack in the ten roles.

Is anyone just all abit over it?

We won’t go up again, we aren’t good enough

We’ll watch Hamer and O’Hare storm the league

we’ll have the same problems as every other year in terms of depth and get some heavy defeats again, with the same spiel shared by Robins after each game

We are miles from being good enough, and it’s not going to be our season again after two close fails.

Watford will probably smash us today and it will be an even bigger meltdown from all on here with increasing pressure on Robins. I can see it now

Ask me in ten games time.

Still too early to tell I think. Watford have had a decent start but at least a couple of the teams that have started well will have their wheels come off by ten games in.

Can’t really call this one. Think if Wright isn’t available at all we may struggle a bit; he’s looked our biggest threat in most of the games. Would happily take a scrappy 1-0 win with an excellent defensive display and a disjointed attacking one!

Think I’d try Norman in the 10 role but outside of that, wouldn’t mind this.

Only 3 league clean sheets for us in 2024. It would take a seriously boring side not to score at least one.

Does that mean we’re going to not see our strongest side, or does it mean we’re already at game number 10 and I didn’t realise?

Norman is like Vardy, he is wants to play off the shoulder, he's no number 10.

Taking Saddles 'ITK' at face value, I'd guess at something like this today then...

Dovin
MVE Thomas Binks Dasilva
Eccles Lats
EMC Rudoni Norman
Simms

Not what I want necessarily, but having a little guess.

I think…

Eccles Torp
EMC Rudoni BTA
Simms (or maybe The Hound, not sure)

Lati obviously been away with Jamaica recently so likely left out?

Well, I think that's what the hint is to he honest.

Latibeaudiere has been away, so arrogant Robbings is finally forced into actually playing his best defenders for once.

Milan Thomas Binks Bidwell
Eccles Allen
EMC Rudoni Dasilva
BTA
