Posh v Wigan

[Posh Hammer]

3rd v 2nd on Saturday then.

Wigan, who are bound to be up there at the end of the season, haven't let many in this season but they probably haven't come up against a forward line like ours yet.

Got a feeling there will be at least 4 goals in this, and it all depends on how we defend free kicks and crosses. Defend like we did in the first half against Bradford and we'll get turned over. Defend like we can do, and we can win this.

With that said, I think we'll lose this. Going for 3-2 Wigan.

Highest scorers in the league vs the best defence in the efl at the moment.
All the makings of a cracking game.
We will miss our captain Morsy massively but hopefully Powell will be back after being rested in midweek as we missed his quality.
Personally think we have the best front 4 in the league, with the tightest defence. Wigan win 2-0 Powell and Massey with the goals, posh reduced to 10 men. Up the tics.

Mark my words they’ll be goals in this. Morsy is a massive loss. I’d take a point with two more winnable home games next up. 2-2. Another game I’m missing, £26 to sit in that dump of a stand doesn’t appeal.

£26 is ludicrous! Bare in mind its £28 for home fans, which is even more ludicrous!

I would be shocked if we didn't score, but I would be even more shocked if we didn't concede.

We've played Wigan 17 times in our history and won once. If we can defend well I think we can get something out of this match, i'd be happy with a point as I expect Wigan to win the league at a canter.

Personally i think the game will work in our favour, posh will play their normal attacking style at home which will leave the game open unlike at the dw when teams come to soak up the pressure, this style will do us a favour as i think we have the better players/squad to deal with and take advantage of. I cant see us conceding anytime soon but see us scoring for fun with the front 4 we have, thats without toney, colclough and power. Think we will have a positive performance and result.

Can only see a Posh win here. 3-0.

I think Posh will win 3-0 if Leo does not play at right wing-back but lose 0-3 if Leo does play at right wing back

3-0! I would be astonished if we keep a clean sheet.

I have a feeling we may well go 4-4-2. Probably line up like this:

Bond

Shepherd
Taffazoli
Taylor
Hughes

Edwards
Grant
Doughty
Maddison

Marriott
Morais/Miller

 

[NorthernSoul]

Fancy a draw in this. Surely we can't win yet another away game against another of the favourites for promotion. Would be happy with a point if we follow it up with back to back home wins against Plymouth and Walsall.

That's exactly how i'd line up with Miller starting upfront in place of Morias.

Only issue is, Miller hasn't exactly set the world on fire in his first 2 games. Morais and Marriott clearly have an understanding.

No doubt in my mind that Miller is the better player, but sometimes partnerships aren't the best 2 players.

You all hate McCann?? Can't see why. Love my trips to London Road.Quality stadium. Start selling alcohol at half time

McCann as a bloke is top notch but some of the football last season was dire and there were some questionable tactics to go with it.

 

[wafc_Mike]

Another decent first half from us, could have been more than the 1 goal. Just need to keep it up in the second half. Up the tics.

 

[Lance Stoe]

Hope Peterborough win this one

 

[wafc_Mike]

Fair play posh, game of two halves and you took your chances in the second half. If you can carry onlikethat this season then no doubt you will be up there come the end of the season.

 

[Posh Hammer]

Ridiculous game.

Said there would be goals but didn't see us scoring at half time.

Great win against a solid side who will be up there.

If you'd like some more tips on correct outcomes then you just have to ask nicely, no need to dress it up like that.

 

[wiganmudhuts29]

Criminal how we lost that game...should of been 6-1 up at half time...completely outplayed them..then went to shit 2nd half...unreal, 3 points dropped!

 

[SMH]

Told ya there’d be goals.
