    Don't think we have to worry bout them attacking/scoring.....

    So do you reckon we can break them down?

    Team should be more than capable, if tactics right

    Yes, if Lennon plays a striker and lets go of this idea of Sammy and Commons playing in some weird AM/LAM/no striker combination.

    I reckon we're capable. They will most likely sit with 10 men behind the ball but I wouldn't rule them out of scoring.

    Yes, like WGS said lets worry about getting 2 goals first of all..... obviously without conceding.

    I think we can if he plays Balde and the Dutch winger and we get a big boisterous crowd.

    Slightly concerned that we only have a week to work on it.

    Yes although I really felt we needed the goal. They are more than capable of another freak goal like their first. Don't think it paid off risking Virgil and Steve together.

    If we play with 1 striker or maybe even 2 strikers * forbid, then yes.

    Our main hope is they don't travel well and the surface will suit us more. Despite how bad we were, we still had some chances like a couple of headers early on, Commons shot and Forrest's sitter. If we go for it for the start with the right team selection then there is always a chance. They struggled to cope the few times we put pressure on their keeper so I hope he panics as much as he did in the first half of the match today.

    Yes, if we play the right team and we have 60,000 fans behind the players.

    Definitely. I think we will go through, but it's been made more difficult by shocking decisions by the manager and prima donna performances by players who think they are better than they are.

    Yes we can, a goalscorer is what we're missing. A few defensive tweaks wouldn't go a miss either.

    think it's going to be really hard but at the minute we're still in it so anything can happen

    I think so,their defence and keeper are poor.Surely the players will be well up for it in the 2nd tie.They looked tired and unable to break down what i thought was a very poor side.
