No chance surely.

 

He’s not kicked a ball since basically the cup final.

Mate he’s always been playing, he will at the very least come on off the bench. Ange likes to throw the kitchen sink at things no matter who is less than fully fit

Got an awful feeling Itten and Sands are in the starting line up tonight

Most likely just nerves 

scenes when itten starts and scores a hat trick 

[The Specky Forum Organiser 69,299]

Absolutely no chance Kyogo plays imo, they have fucked him twice by rushing him back. Do that again tonight his season will be over, if it isn't already(which there are rumours it might be)

[The Specky Forum Organiser 69,299]

Aaron Ramsey is meh but Carl Starfelt is going to hurt us

Unbelievable

They wouldn’t be rushing back that Maeda from international duty if Kyogo will pay IMO.

But fuck it, should beat them no matter who they play.

Kyogo was weeks away apparantly. if they keep rushing him back he'll do a hamstring or something, madness they've played him as often as they have. 

[King Jela 21,516]

Hope they rush him back, could fuck his entire career. 

[teddybear1975 2,269]

I hope we don't try to be too clever and overthink our tactics tonight. Off course keep it tight early but don't invite unnecessary pressure.

A time machine would be good

We will not be playing a high press against them

We're going to do the Gio special here tonight - sit back, draw them out, hit on the counter and when they tire in the 2nd half then press higher up the park

Defence need to stand up and be counted tonight

If we sit in and try to draw them out we'll be 2/3 down before we even know what's happened 

Our team is more than good enough to take the game to them, we struggle when teams dominate possession against us, be a massive mistake if Gio sets up that way

[stevemac 5,396]

literally only key player missing for us is Morelos now, Roofe has always done well against them and Sakala's pace could do them some damage. I don't know why there seems to be an air of fear because we are on the back of a couple of draws and bad performances. 

[.Williamson. 87,117]

Some nervous pooing happening this morning, let me tell you

Absolutely disgraceful having to wait til after work to start drinking for this

Looking back to the game in August everything good for them came through kyogo. He provided that chance for eduoard in the only occassion Balogun was away from him. Then when we went centrally had a good chance and a half chance. They wont have that tonight.

Looking at us from that game Roofe was really effective linking up with Kent down that side. We were hurt that day with the lack of width down the right which will not be an issue tonight.

I do worry that we will miss Davis' reading of the game in there but we have Kamara who thrives with the ball in bigger games, Arfield who is underrated with the ball and Aribo - well enough said. 

[The true baller 972]

I'm gonny have a few beers in an hour or so followed by some red near dinner time. We're pumping them the night, fuck it.

They have Jota though, who is arguably better than Kyogo
