I respect your point but I have to disagree.
More then anything we need to be confident going into Newcastle and Swansea. 6 points from those 2 games and I don’t think we’ll look down the table to see whose 3 points away from us for the rest of the season. I think it’d be a slow and steady climb to 7th.
If we get a hiding tomorrow confidence will be shot. We’ll be nervous going into the next games and the whole Christmas period. We don’t want that. Right now I believe good results against opposition we can beat is what we need. Let the big games come later when we’re fully out of trouble and can play with freedom. By then we’ll have big players back playing, we’ll have new signings and big Sam with have fully implemented his boring but albeit effective style of play.
To be fair there’s no way of knowing what would be the better game to play because we’ll never see the other option. But if the game does go ahead I’d absolutely love a win/to be proved wrong. You’d never see a man happier to eat a slice of “I was wrong” humble pie.
COYB!
