Not sure "funeral" is the best analogy for our win, but I can see him whispering it into the groom's ear as he comes out of the church with a stunning bride on his arm

Rurik just gave me the fear, damn him!
I fucking HATE the 12.30 Saturday slot after a European game too. It seems purposefully designed to bring about the upset- although at least we're at home.
However, I really don't think that this squad will have any sense of complacency. Now the squad tombola machine has been cranked up, I think we're seeing some healthy competition to get on the pitch, and we can expect some Origi, Millie and maybe Shaq again for this one. These squaddies are absolutely busting a gut to show what they can do. Of course, their players will be trying to prove a point to the new coach, but I'm very hopeful it's gonna be OK.

This team has a completely different mentality and belief to our teams of old. Even if Watford somehow miraculously nick an early goal, we will still score three or four. This is an exceptional team with a superb manager.
How much is the points difference between us and Watford? And we’re at home. I’d be staggered if we get anything less than a comfortable win.

If it was Weds night and Eastern Europe maybe but it was Tuesday and a short flight.
We’ll batter them as we have the last 2 years at home
Cannot take any game for granted. I see where Rurik's coming from. Has the potential to trip us up if our mentality is not right. I expect some rotation but hope not too much. And I expect the mentality to be good. But can't say I will be relaxed on Saturday.
If we can keep our run going through the end of January we will be looking very good for the league. Throwing points away against Watford would open a door which I would like to stay firmly shut.

Of course, but to be surprised if we win is a tad overstating it no?
Yep.
February.
The first legs will be played on 18/19/25/26 of February, with the second legs played on 10/11/17/18 of March.
City only lost to us and United 2 years ago. We only lost to City last year.
We don’t have to lose to anyone and there is a decent chance we won’t.
My example highlighted its highly improbable it will against Watford which is the only game we are talking about in this thread.
Do keep up.
17th May 2020, we probably register our second draw of the season on 9th May 2020.
As for this match, new manager. There will be a bit of a bounce in their steps going into this match and we've just come out of a high from midweek Champs League result. If we don't put out the strongest side to focus on this match, it won't be an easy one. An early goal will settle the fans and players' nerves and allow them to enjoy the match more. Klopp had already given a clear warning on his post match interview for us to stay focus at task at hand.
That was exactly my aim
Can't afford any complacency, among fans or certainly players. Any wobble from us will kick new life into City and Leicester.
Looks like I'll be there. I'll shout proper loud.
Spoke to three season ticket holders today.
All separately.
All of whom said something along the lines of "Ah, we'll fucking batter them Sat, it'll be dead easy".
Unfortunately that attitude, plus the early kick off, & the chance of a Tory election win (which WILL affect the mood negatively) may mean it's a subdued atmosphere. I hope I'm wrong.
I think this will be a game we make a statement in and score 6 or 7. We go into the CWC semi midweek which is where i expect to see the alternatives get a start, however I’m expecting the main front 3 again for this. No idea on midfield but hopefully Ox is in there.
Yeh I can see the election thing having a dampener. early goal should lift things If it is quiet. I’m finding hard to be anything other than optimistic about this team and manager at the moment. It’s a feeling I haven’t about us in decades and it’s great.
I will go with you on this.
I think it was a trainwreck before. People discussing how many we can rest and still win by a large margin. Premier League is unforgiving to this kind of attitude; only hope it didn't trickle down to the players.
Not sure any of the players are on here since David James
Thats why we go full strength, normal front 3 and treat it like another Salzburg game.
