Barney Rubble Posted September 4, 2019 Share Posted September 4, 2019 Great news indeed. Only 0-3 instead of 0-4 then. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
runningtings Posted September 4, 2019 Share Posted September 4, 2019 We will beat them on Monday night, mark my words. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mccaughey85 Posted September 4, 2019 Share Posted September 4, 2019 There's no chance we beat Belgium, draw maybe but even then that's hugely unlikely. Keep the score respectable and beat Russia at home would be excellent imo. Then we can try and get a good result v Russia away then we have a run of three winnable games to build up confidence before our play off.

If you offered me the absolute worst 0-0 draw in the history of the game I would snatch it out of your hand right now and run for the hills.

I know they still have De Bruyne but he's not the player Hazard his . Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ParisInAKilt Posted September 4, 2019 Share Posted September 4, 2019 Potentially good news. We can definitely win it, especially if we can beat Russia first. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A very slim one but there’s still a chance. Nobody thought we would beat France (twice) or Holland in the first leg of the playoff. We would need a ridiculous amount of luck and Belgium would need to perform terribly but there’s always a chance. As long as we beat Russia then anything we get from the Belgium game would be a huge bonus. A narrow defeat wouldn’t be a disaster either.

They couldn’t beat us 4-0 in Brussels a couple of months ago when both Hazards were playing we didn’t have our best player on the park. The negativity on here is ridiculous at times.

That was a friendly. Meaningless pish. Ok, so Belgium do have the players to beat us comfortably but it doesn’t mean they are going to beat us 0-3. Defeatism is rife on here.

vanderark14 Posted September 5, 2019 Share Posted September 5, 2019 As long as the team go into the belguim match with no fear and they come off the park knowing they couldn't give anymore............I'll be happy. We have to see this effort to galvanise the support. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
