Time to unleash Broja our secret weapon that they'll know little about.

Maybe 1-2 minutes then a red card.

Redmond should really only be on the bench. He is better coming on after 70 odd minutes when he is fresh and opponents are tiring. Just don't put him in the starting 11 and he's fine for us.

No doubt in my mind that he is already better than both and will progress at a faster rate than them.

I'm backing my judgement from what I've seen. In my experience you can usually tell quite quickly whether a player has something special and my instincts tell me Broja does.

No way should KWP be a back-up player. We are wasting his talents and he'll get fed up and put in for a transfer. We cannot afford to lose players of his calibre. Tino can play ahead of him as the majority of fans seem to be advocating.

100% but not convinced Ralph will agree.

I can't for the life of me understand why there aren't thousands of Saints fans clamouring for this lad to be in the starting line up. Even before yesterday's superb cameo role he has been knocking loudly on the door with performances for Albania. Yesterday he was in a different class to any of our players and he only came on for little more than 20 minutes. In that short time he single-handedly transformed the direction of the game with a brilliant run down the right wing in which he gave a West Ham defender a couple of yards start and just breezed past him leaving him treading water before sliding a ball towards Moi which almost led to a goal, he turned their defence near the half way line, beat another man and fizzed a shot against the post and then had a late header cleared off the line. I mean come on, what has he got to do? when was the last time we saw a forward generate that kind of excitement and get people out of their seats? He is head and shoulders above any other striker at the club. He must start against Man City.

Broja should be starting but Ralph is blind. He should be among the first names on the team sheet because he is everything this team lacks - powerful, strong, direct, fast, skillful and good in the air and with his feet. If Ralph continues to omit him from the starting line up you have to ask yourself if he knows what he is doing.

We have a strong bench but probably won't see any of them until West Ham score.

zzzzzzzzzzz!

Ralph hasn't got the balls.

Can't believe Broja can't get in this side.

Playing for 0-0

Armstrong up top on his own at home????

Agree but we can all judge whether Saints are stronger or weaker today than previous games.

Well, let's make a judgement based on the performance of both sides today.

Same for both teams unless I am missing something?

This was the sensible option. Broja has a physical presence which you need against West Ham but Ralph prefers to stick with Redmond.

Bet all or most of their internationals will be playing. Why do our snowflakes take so long to recover?

Got into the European team of the week even though he only paid 45 minutes. This lad should be one of the first names on the team sheet. We may not have him for long so let's make the most of that time.

Another goal plus 2 assists for the lad. Pretty impressive seeing as he only played the second 45 minutes.

It was a very good goal.
