v Peterborough..Pre match and game itself

[tonyh]

Hoping for the best, fearing the worst.

If offered a draw now, I'd settle for it.

[ollyandpatch]

I agree, same as the Brentford game, would shake hands on a score draw right now !

Too right--that would be a result!

:fingerscrossed: for 3 points please

Shuker has a great assist record so I wouldn't mind him starting..l although not at RB lol might as well stick Hughesy in goal if your doing that!

 

Shuker can't do any worse than some of our midfield in the last two games,can he?

[fairportnick]

Shuker and Hughes have to start. Williamson couldnt hit a barn door and should be on the bench. I can cope with Griff in a match like todays. If Pope isnt doing much its because we have wingers who cant (and in one case wont) cross the ball. It needs sorting , its not rocket science.

Doesn't even have to be the wingers,the full backs can play a big part by playing higher up the pitch.Like you say it's pointless playing Popey unless we get plenty of crosses in.

[Angel of Burslem]

Why not I don't c Yates or Duffy setting us alight from that position .

People need get it into there skulls that Shuker is a very good pro !

He is messi u know Port Vales messi !

 

I often see Messi playing right-back for Barca!

[Angel of Burslem]

You get the feeling that we'll have to score 2 to even get a draw. Hope Hughes starts with Jeno back in for Birchall.

[Portvalefc]

We need to be in their faces from the start and not like the last 2 games

[CambridgeDon]

The real challenge for us today will be to keep a clean sheet. We've only had two all season (I think) and this is why Skybet say they have us down to lose 1-3. I'm sure we can score today but keeping out the likes of Assombalonga, Barnett and McCann will be very difficult. One thing's for certain, we need a two hundred percent improvement on our last two games or we'll get hammered.

 

I'd definitely take a point.

[Gypo]

i can see Posh going all out for it today 4-4-2 and stretching us.

 

We need to be at our very best or it will end up the same as the Wolves match, chasing shadows.

I just had the Vale +1 goal, at a best priced 5/6, here's hoping!.......

3-5-2 is that today or 4-4-2 with Jones in midfield??!!
