Ritchie says nufc have a plan. I fear it is a baldrick cunning plan from blackadder

[ALF]

At least Perez isn't starting.

[Blue & Maroon]

Well this will be a disaster

[Bodacious Benny]

Leicester always beat us

[ALF]

Didn't realise just how bad our recent home record against Leicester was.

[Colback's Orange Tufts]

At least Perez isn't starting.

Sub goal i suspect

[Captain Obvious]

Sean Longstaff's passing is painful

[UlversToon]

Well the optimism I had following the Liverpool result has all but evaporated now.

[overseasTOON]

What is plan B? Score more than the opposition?

[Blue & Maroon]

A shot on target.. yaay

[Colback's Orange Tufts]

Remember when we wanted 15m for sean longstaff. He hasnt completed 15 passes in a game since. Completely Bruced.

[Bodacious Benny]

37% possession is good for us

[originallad]

Bruce could and should have put Hendrick in the middle for the first time but instead starts Sean who's been gash.

[Captain Obvious]

I think we need that throw in coach

[Bodacious Benny]

Never seen the ball hit the ref so many times in one match, that’s 3 already.

[Captain Obvious]

Bruce could and should have put Hendrick in the middle for the first time but instead starts Sean who's been gash.

Careful. Don't you dare criticize a local lad on here.

(Has been woeful though)

Hendrick does nothing. Is that better than sean losing the ball hahha
