I think tonights' match is a free hit.
I would love us to win, score seven and go top, but honestly 12 points out of a possible 12 in the last 4 games against quality team (the first three) and a desperate team looking for it's first win of the campaign, was simultaneously unexpected and brilliant.
In previous seasons we would have drawn one, won one and lost one of the first three and then lost to Sheffield United, and now been under enormous pressure to get a result from the City game.
Instead, we have won four, sit second, confidence is high, and yes, we are minus Digne, Richarlison, Allan and James. However Godfrey, Bernard, Davies and Sigurdson have stepped up to the plate and here we are, all relaxed and thinking hey, let's throw on some fresh legs, put some of the stalwarts on the bench, and see where we are after 60 minutes.
I'm probably being a tad too optimistic, but it's Christmas...
