Do you think Redmond should get back in automatically or should he have to await his chance? Difficult to drop Sofiane or Moussa now.

SO!

No chance matey!

So sad and so unfair. Leon was such a lovely man and generous to a fault when it came to his beloved SFC. He helped save us from extinction just those few short years ago. Surely a man who deserves honour although he would never think so. God bless Leon you will be remembered always as a True Saint. Come on lads if any man deserves a statue outside St Mary's it is Leon Crouch. Let's make it happen somehow.

I wonder what he is so very good at that he can't be dropped 'cos it certainly ain't football

Are our lads training at SMS today then or on a 25 mile jog through the Nw Forest Strachan style?

Nonsense

Who's going down? Newcastle, Bournemouth & Sheff U

Quite ridiculous for you to start panicking yet, as long as we pick up a point per match we'll be fine and we are doing that already.

Will be some serious questions about Jaidi's ability, we can do better than this with these kids.

Sheff U are a very limited side from what I've seen on MotD. Having momentum from last season is fine but will only carry them so far. Our high press and non-stop effort style will not suit them at all and as long as we turn up for the first half on the day it should be a comfortable win, even 0-3 perhaps.

I guess the attraction of playing alongside stars such as Ward Prowse diminished over time.

Let's just give the lad a break for Pete's sake, wish him well and hope he succeeds at Antwerpen. It's not all about money is it.

Glad this is of no interest whatsoever to me. Feel sorry for peops and their kids who just want to watch a decent cup-tie over an old local rival. Surely they don't need to get caught up in all the tribalism that leads to fights.

Be fair with Ward Prowse being unusually hopeless even by his own standards, for most of the match Cedric had to fathom out how to mark two fast players. Ward Prowse gave him no help whatsoever. From my seat I thought had a pretty good game considering how long he has been banished to the wilderness. He deserves a decent run as he is every bit as good as Valery even if lacking a yard due to age.

Bertrand's absence is strange? Is he really injured?

All in all good to see so many happy fans today. Goodness knows what formation we were supposed to be playing at the start of the match but it did seem to get us into the ascendancy for 10 mins. After that we struggled until HT and the much needed roasting form Ralph. Not really happy with a point at home against the poorest United team we have seen down here in many a long year but Danso's brain-fade cost us the match. Of course a massive shout-out for Oriol Romeu who could regain his Man of the Season award if he keeps going like today. He look international class once again after some time spent in the doldrums.

Half-baked as a lot of these ''good' ideas prove to be

They won't be the last as more and more money focuses on the PL and European competitions. We've been there and only thanks to Marcus Leibherr are we still here. It is a reminder of why we must play within our means

I'd play Cedric rather than Valery against United, otherwise with you

Cup football has always ben about XI v XI and who wants it most on the night, whatever the 'status' of the individuals. That's why everyone loves cup football because you never know what's going to happen.

Tosh!

Before anybody asks I am highlighting the need for an exclamation mark, I realise it was joke.

Nothing to see here!

It may be that when playing at high speed with a high press and their engines at peak revs, their thinking process is so fast that their finishing is also too hurried. It cannot be easy to suddenly slow down the adrenalin flow and give yourself a second or so to think through your options before shooting. Such composure is not available at the switch of a tap.
