When asked how important it is to shut out your opponents, the manager insists that it is key because it is the ‘foundation to win games’.

I see a banana peel on that game, steve bruce is on the burner, he knows he would be without job on wednesday morning if he looses, the team aint in good shape, yeah but i think its a game we must take seriously by ensuring we overwhelm then in the first 30min with a goal then hold on for 2nd half, sit deep and hit them on the counter.
Somewhere Tony Pulis is smiling…who btw just got sacked again after only 10 matches at lowly Sheffield Wednesday
