Denzel Zanzibar 6,972 Posted February 6, 2016 Share Posted February 6, 2016 Think people need a sense of perspective here. We're not going to run away with the league. We were never going to run away with the league. But (and here's the important bit) NOBODY is going to run away with the league. Look at the table, just look at it. We're second on goal difference with a game in hand over Hull and two games in hand over Burnley in third. We're in a good position, but it's very tight up there. We've messed up, Hull have messed up, Burnley have messed up and Derby have really messed up. That's not going to change. As it stands, we have the advantage over all of the other teams. It's up to us to make that advantage count. Starting on Tuesday. 4-2-3-1 got us where we are, no need to panic. Link to post Share on other sites

ballyclover 213 Posted February 6, 2016 Share Posted February 6, 2016 Ak and i quote “We played well in the last 20 minutes because that was the time we looked like we wanted to win the game,” he said. “But the first 70 minutes we didn’t play with the intensity we needed to, especially after out last two defeats – I thought the reaction today was going to be better, but it was only the last 20 minutes when he had some chances.” Yes cos you made the change to a more attacking formation which you should have done in the first 70....im going before i get really angry.....wheres my wife Link to post Share on other sites

ManBearPig 1,853 Posted February 6, 2016 Share Posted February 6, 2016 I'll judge the team against everyone else when we have played the same amount of games. Yes, each game we don't win is dissapointing, but I'll be in a better position to judge us after those 2 games in hand. Although people saying that today isn't good enough are 100% correct. What worries me a bit is that even with our attacking flair we still look toothless and don't adapt. Link to post Share on other sites

We've been in this league long enough to know that anybody can beat anybody, and any team can go on a good/bad run at any point no matter how good their squad is. Link to post Share on other sites
smogsterking the Inspirati 2,490 Posted February 6, 2016 Share Posted February 6, 2016 I do feel Ramirez was planned today had it not been for Ayalas injury fingers crossed it was a knock rather than anything serious. I think Ramirez Stuani and Forshaw will play on Tuesday Link to post Share on other sites
GwenStuani 4 Posted February 6, 2016 Share Posted February 6, 2016 Wasn't at the game . How was nugents goal? Did he play well? Can we all stop pishing the bed that were rubbish if Rhodes doesn't step up? Link to post Share on other sites

Yeah, we dropped points against those 3 teams, but lets be honest, City are scrapping for their lives and were never going to be a walkover, Forest haven't lost in something like 15 games now and Blackburn had a point to prove after selling us Rhodes.

boro-unger 3,870 Posted February 6, 2016 Share Posted February 6, 2016 Karanka said that he left the new boys out for this game, but 'it will be different on tuesday', suggesting rhodes and or ramirez will be starting Think people need a sense of perspective here.

Hull have dropped daft points to Preston and leeds, and Burnley have had lots of draws that you would have thought would be winnable games Link to post Share on other sites
