Southampton had a bad summer aswell, could be another juicy afternoon for us.

It’s always when we’re playing well too.

Games that we are "expected" to win have too often tripped us up in recent years. Southampton went 2 up against us in this fixture last season, we won't get away with that always.

First away games are going to be difficult. Teams playing their first home games in 18 months in front of a crowd are going to be well up for it

Yep. You saw that at the weekend and a feature of this United side is that their arse can fall out completely unexpectedly. Any time, any place.

A big step forward for this team would be winning more ‘boring’ games. Majority of our alway wins last season were us being jolted into life by slow starts and going one or two behind.

Quieten the crowd, score when on top, close the game out with the minimum of fuss. Those are the foundation of title winning teams and we need to show it more if we’re to become one.

Thankfully our away record is ridiculously good.

Expect it to continue but agree with your point - it's going to be a cup final for these teams.
