  1. We are 12 games unbeaten and have won away against 2 better teams, Fulham and Coventry, because we have got by far the best manager in the league. W16 D6 L5
  2. I think it will be more a case of struggling to stop them. With the players Coventry have, you'd expect them to steamroller us.
  3. I'd like to see Dibaga as one of the 1st team subs again. He was very impressive v Leicester.
  4. When you see that, you realize how much stronger Coventry's squad is. They have better players than us in nearly every position. Rushworth, van Ewjck, Rudoni...Their attack is so full of goal scorers, it's ridiculous: Wright, Thomas-Assante, Mason-Clark, Simms.... We have 2 players who might get into their team: Harwood-Bellis and Scienza.
  5. The only thing better for him would have been a Saints defeat. I bet he was gutted when Larin scored.
  6. A big club will come in for him, but if we could keep him here for 2 more years, we have our best chance of winning another trophy. Losing him this summer would be terrible.
  7. They won't play their first team against us anyway, after they've had a League Cup Final followed by 2 international games. Arteta will be working with the reserves who aren't away playing for their countries and World Cup selection. Brazil have 2 games in the USA. I don't know if Spain's game v Argentina scheduled for Qatar will be moved or postponed, but their players are going to be flying all over the place.
  8. League Cup final v City then 2 international games all over the place for Arsenal players. They're all internationals and they really are going to be all over the place. Brazil are playing France and Croatia in the USA.
  9. I don't think we've ever had a manager as ruthless and relentless as Eckert. He will do exactly what it takes to win games, no more, no less, always bearing in mind that he wants to win the next game and the ones after that as well. “We don’t get satisfied after winning one game, we have to win the next one, the next one, the next one." Southampton go ten games unbeaten after FA Cup win, and it’s all down to one man
  10. The best win percentage of any Saints manager in 130 years. List of Southampton F.C. managers - Wikipedia
  11. Our squad really isn't as strong as the results under Eckert have made it look. We still haven't solved the goalkeeper or centre forward problems. We only won 4 of the 50 games before he took over.
  12. We'll end up getting Millwall at Wembley. Wrexham would be preferable.
  13. A lot of the best ones have already been recommended, but I'm surprised nobody's mentioned Lisbon. It's a beautiful city with lots of interesting cultural sites as well as great food and drink. You can even take in a football game while you're there. Slightly more off the beaten track, there are also some beautiful places in Romania, like Sibiu and Brașov.
  14. Their goalkeeper was better than ours and they also had a lot of luck.
  15. A goal and an assist for him today in Leyton Orient's 2-1 win at Northampton.
