Lack of investment in better quality players rather than just lots of "squad" players after the cup final and 8th place in Premiership in 2003

It isn't the final FM09 database in the FML beta. It's still a work in progress although very close to the deadline. I sent my Southampton research file back a while ago.

you are missing the point! they keep the same formation but swap position thus if they did that in a 2 up front with lallana behind then it would be a very different system

the front 4 players in the 4231 formation (i.e. mcgoldrick, robertson, lallana and surman) all interchange and swap positions throughout the match. it is not rigid in terms of where they play.

and have no width

and then if we play your formation with lallana behind two strikers we would have no width

we just won the last two games playing that formation and you want to change it?

Jan Poortvliet not really a "former" Saint is he?

If Lallana is sold I reckon Romain Gasmi will take his role

I'd be delighted

get saints tv

We have already turned down bids for him. If he does go in January for example I think that Romain Gasmi may replace him in his role behind the striker

Possibly true. But still a very negative view on things

3 points away from 4th place in the live league table

I'm in Norwich True story

Formation will be... Davis James Perry Lancashire Mills Cork Surman McGoldrick Lallana Robertson Pekhart

Formation will be... Davis James Perry Lancashire Mills Cork Surman McGoldrick Lallana Robertson Pekhart

I think Robertson may start ahead of Skacel

My kits which I will use instead of my profile picture Home Kit Away Kit 3rd Kit

Then why have you changed the formation? We didn't play 442 against Doncaster

Garrod looks nothing like Paterson

there is alot more to it that that! plus you can play it 24/7 and with 1000 people in each gameworld you'd always find someone online to have a game with no matter what the time

I bet you it isn't!!! We'd have no central players in midfield if we play like that It will be like this Bart Cork Svensson Perry Mills Wotton James Surman Lallana BWP McGoldrick
