Optimistic

[Skippyjack]

After today I'm excited for the play offs, we're clearly underdogs going into them, Ayew hitting some form, I wouldn't have said this before the Reading game

 

[Longlostjack]

Agreed. I think we could surprise a few providing we really go for it and don’t sit back and hope to sneak a win. If we go one nil up play to get a second. Shackles off - nothing to lose.

we wont surprise a few then as play offs are tailor made for cooper ball

The question is - do you rotate as much as possible for last two games or play your best 11 to get a bit of form. Lowe is on a bit of a scoring run at the moment but I’d be tempted to rest him and ayew as much as possible. Also players like grimes, Fulton etc who have played almost every 90 recently.

I'm not sure what I'd rather, play 2 games to instill a strategy to go into the play offs or give the stiffs a run out, Hamer, Latibeaudiere, Whittaker, Freeman, Manning, Cooper has 3 weeks to work on the training ground, it's that period that will define our fate

the last thing I would want is to fall into the trap of going for it

We are three games away from a small fortune once the play offs start

We probably need to rest a few players or at least do some more subbing for next few league games

Then the tournament begins and although I do not agree with the comment that Steve is a tournament manager, he does have a good record in this type of comp as well as an astonishingly good start as a manager

Well done Steve, champion performance and special mention again for Andre and his contribution to the team

I would prefer to stay realistic about our chances, manage the 95 minutes and keep a clean sheet

Clean sheet First

then hope for some magic, luck or a set piece for Conor H or Jan to do what they do best

Clean sheet first and hope to Nick a goal.

This is why we’re so good to watch these days.

Feel the key to miraculously going up could be.....resting key players remaining 2 games, plus working like fck on the training ground to get some sort of mojo back. Dont think it matters now who we get, wer underdogs anyway.
Will he just go for it? Not a chance, he hasn't the last 2 months when we had better chance of really finishing top 2....so am not expecting any different now. Have said before everything needs to align for us to have a sniff....heart says please god yes, head says that it wont and we'll be found out bigtime.
If we do, it'll be Ayew who'll drag us there.

also a good chance for Liam, Morgan and Ollie to get experience in the next few games and maybe add to the play off team capabilities

Both Liam and Morgan are good strikers and Liam is a natural finisher
