We are wearing the green shirt tonight. The club shared a past game against stoke on the old Twitter machine...these kits were fantastic.
Have to say, I’m expecting a win tonight. If we can’t beat a championship side like Stoke, we might as well pack our bags because we are never winning a trophy. This game won’t define our season because we should be winning this and winning this comfortably
For the sake of the Mourinho project, I think we really need a reaction and result today. He is famously demanding and no doubt got stuck in to a few after the Leicester performance. He doesn't avoid conflict, and it has worked for him many times, but when his players stop responding / believing it unravels very quickly.
Personally I think we are still very much in the up phase with Mourinho. Carabao Cup would be a very nice little appetiser for hopefully even better things to come.

Trippier has put a big bet on Stoke !
Should be over by half time tbh

Stoke are without four goalkeepers and must choose between an inexperienced 19-year-old and a 37-year-old who has not played a league game in almost two years.
They are also without a number of other players due to injury including former Chelsea midfielder John Obi Mikel, Wales midfielder Joe Allen and defender Ryan Shawcross.

Boring 0-0 and penalties incoming
It's us once again just as we drift into the slightly longer days.
Just as belief had arrived taking on its new position and looking like it was settling in, did role vacant reappear.
Seems like hope is but a passing trader with us.
The only question it seems is whether it is pain now or pain soon to come.

totally agree. Obviously it will be great to win today, but we are not suddenly “back” by beating Stoke I’m sorry. Tonight should be a formality, nothing less. The Xmas period of league games is where we can redeem ourselves and pick up the points needed. Tonight’s game is a game we should not be struggling in whatsoever.
You only need to field 1 goalkeeperStoke fan in peace, seeing some of your hopeful lineups hasn’t exactly filled me with confidence to be honest.
We have 6 goalkeepers unable to play so that isn’t exactly the best of news, we’ve got too many injuries to risk putting out our very thin first team at the minute.
so if you can just score 1 and defend that’d be nice
I wonder if we’ll be active in the transfer market January
