striker

Surprised that JRod was the one heading to the bench for Sturrdige

Wow, we didn't have one player get up for that header and WBA had two. We look lifeless.

He has to try Carrillo at this point, but wow what is Gabbi thinking. He's the obviouse 3rd choice now, and soon to be 4th once Austin gets back. I could see MP going pretty strictly to a Austin-Carrillo rotation once Austin is back (assuming Carrillo looks good), pushing Gabbi out of the team.

For tomorrow I think we need to go all out to score goals, we should play 5 or 6 CB's.

The only thing for sure is that one of the CB's will score our only goal.

I think we should play Hoedt, Stephens, and Yoshida next game since we need goals.

I guess we need to play more CB's to score.

I don't understand Carillo not coming on for Long. Does Long have incriminating pictures of MP?

Darn, I picked the wrong cb to score. I predicted 1-1 but with Hoedt.

With the current squad, in my opinion Boufal, Lemina, and Gabbi should start every match.

I predict 1-1. Hoedt scores.

We are in relegation. Last season we finished 8th and almost won a Cup. Why would MP be safe at all? It doesn't matter how we are playing frankly, which still isn't good. Its just not as bad as before. If he loses 2 more matches in a row, while we are already in relegation, then he's got to go. Even 1-1 might do it (unless of course the board doesn't mind going down).

We need his goals. We can't rely on our CB's scoring every game. The team looked much more direct and dangerous with him.

We can only hope this new guy can score like Austin

Can't see Gabbi staying on much longer. He'll be pushed down even further when Austin returns. I don't understand why Long is selected over him. It seems a clear case of deciding on a formation and then forcing your players to fit, rather than looking at the talents of the squad and putting in the best formation to win.

If our CB's can keep scoring we may keep moving on

I think we should have thrown another cb out there instead of Carillo.

Maybe no one will notice?

We are the only squad that uses our striker position as a decoy, and just to stretch the pitch. We depend more on CB's and CM's to score.

Wigan 2-0 over WHU now

I get the feeling Bertrand really likes playing with Austin out there. They link up very well.

WE played much better, but we didn't actually score again. We will have to find someway or someone to score if we are going to stay up.

I expect the Spurs to be much more attacking this half after they get ripped by their manager at the half. Saints D better be ready.

Lemina is good with the conversion for 2 pts.

We are crossing like crazy, but right now the Spurs defenders look like more of a goal threat than our players. Keep pounding it off of their defenders, maybe we'll get another own goal
