Watt-Zeefuik Posted August 19, 2022 Share Posted August 19, 2022 1 hour ago, JayTeeJnr said: Spot on. If our players had more composure they’d have played round it in two or three passes. They were rushing the man on the ball from a few yards away so there was time. Instead we panicked and on several occasions got rid of the ball without even trying to find a team mate. It didn’t feel like the more sophisticated press that the likes of Man City and Liverpool employ. I thought Smith coped with it really well and helped calm things down. A couple more players in the side who’ve experienced European or International games would have been handy. I thought so too. Smith is underrated in how much of a safety valve he is for the midfield. So often when there's trouble he makes himself available then makes a sound pass. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tazhearts Posted August 20, 2022 Share Posted August 20, 2022 If we do get into the Europa League, does anyone know what pot we will be in? I am assuming pot 4 - the lowest pot. Do we know for definite yet which teams will be in pot 1? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Haven’t played in Europe for so long so our coefficient points are low. Man U def in pot 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tiger Rudi Posted August 20, 2022 Share Posted August 20, 2022 I'm hopeful we can go through. Worried they will be a dangerous counter attacking side. I'm not worried about us scoring, far more concerned with us coping with them at the back. Gung ho approach won't work in my view. Getting in their face & dominating the midfield is a must, dictate play & be patient. Fingers crossed we will make the breakthrough & score first!! Anything can happen after that!

Tom Hardy’s Dug Posted August 21, 2022 Share Posted August 21, 2022 (edited) Nothing about the Zurich game has made me change my mind. Qualifying for Europa scares the shit out of me. I also think we are - again - underestimating them. Playing on the counter suits them right down to the ground. We can’t live with their pace, something we still lack.

There has been alot of talk about "just going at them" "attack from the start" etc. That plays to their strengths. Of course we do need to be more forthright and personally I'd play Shankland, Boyce, McKay and Forest but that doesn't mean shouldn't try and be solid.

Luckies1874 Posted August 21, 2022 Share Posted August 21, 2022 They made 10 changes from the team that started against us on Thursday. Was a good fixture for them to do that given lower league opposition and they won 4-0 but underlines how big a game it is for them too.
