Rodriguez is one of those players that just seems to be involved in every attack, even if his finishing isn't the best.
Thought one of the reasons we were flat against QPR was because he was dropped.
Based on that, J.
We're now going to have to beat at least one of Liverpool/Chelsea at home. Probably the first time we've had a lot of pressure on us going into a game against one of the 'big teams'. So unnecessary but after yesterday's sh!te, that's how it is. Suarez will probably tear us a new one with the form that he's in.
Gotta be 6 points really. Don't have the excuse this time that we'll be tired come the 2nd game (Sunderland) as we have a 2 week break between the 2 games.
No point aiming for 4 points from 2. The players won't be, so why should we?
As someone on MOTD said the other week - it was probably harder for them to get out of the Championship than it will be to stay in the Premier League. Their players knew it was sh*t or bust for them last season, whereas there was no pressure on us.
