It's all very well having an experienced player in there Phil, but he doesn't bring anything to the game. Literally, nothing.

 

I think you are being unfair on nothings with that comment..... :D

 

It's like I said, none of US would have him in, but then we'd never have had Jermaine Wright and all the others that we could never understand over the years.....

 

Just went with what I think we'd see. My pick would be the same as I posted but SG instead of Wotton

Think this game is still too early for us in our rebuilding, but expect a much better performance than on Saturday. Have it down as 2-1 to Swindon.

 

But then I'm aiming for the wooden spoon this season...

 

Davis

Murty/James Thomas Perry Harding

 

James/Mellis MS Wotton Lallana

 

Patterson Lambert

 

Subs Bart Gillett Holmes/Mellis Gobern Rasiak Saga Lancashire

 

Personally I would WAY prefer Gillet in CM but until we find another experienced midfielder I think he will stick with Wotton, unfortunately

 

 

Do you have us finishing stone last then Phil lol????

Nope :smt015

 

Gradual improvement, just below mid table in December and a push on in January when the gaps in the squad are finally filled up!

 

Don't get me wrong, it's not negativity, and Swindon will be a different prospect from Huddersfield, but again they will be up for "a massive game" with a "big crowd". Just think we will take a few weeks yet to properly find our feet

 

We had the quantity vs quality cr*p in the squad with you know who, just don't think we will be able to give away all our rubbish straight away, it's a lot easier for the coaching staff to coach and keep 26 players tactically, physically and metally fit than it is 36

Oh, it the wooden spoon is ME with the Prediction League mate. I think I got one result right all of last season!

 

Bit disappointed to have picked up 6 points so far this season. Bit of a brain f*rt that!

Would make a few changes to the midfield for today if I was Pardew, I think that was where the game was lost on Saturday.

 

Davis

James Perry Thomas Harding

Millas Gillett Schneiderlin Gobern

Lallana

Lambert

 

Hopefully Millas and Lallana can swap positions during the game and if it isn't working out it's pretty easy to bring on Paterson and go two upfront. Maybe consider Mills or Holmes instead of Gobern if fully fit.

From the OS:

'Saints boss Alan Pardew looks set to make several changes to his side this evening as Saints go in search of their first win of the season…

 

New signing Graeme Murty may travel, but is rated as doubtful with a dead leg picked up in Saturday's 3-1 defeat against Huddersfield Town.

 

"I will probably introduce some fresh legs because we've got games thick and fast and it's a demanding start to the season, but we've got to start picking up points," Pardew said.'

 

So perhaps Gillett is going to be recalled. I would fancy our chances more if he were to start.

In fact probably less than nothing, you can carry a passenger provided they don't keep pulling the alarm chain, a midfielder who can't pass to his own men is a negative equity so to speak, he just ****es off everybody else around him and makes them nervous cos they just can't trust him. they have to seek alternative and more risky solutions rather than give him the ball or rely on him, sometimes it's better to play with 10 men than 11-1

Why do they persist in calling AP 'the ex-West Ham boss' FFS?

I think we could go 4-4-1-1

 

- Davis -

 

James - Perry - Thomas - Harding

 

Melis - Schneiderlin - Gillett - Holmes

 

Lallana

 

Lambert

 

Subs: Bialkowski, Lancashire, Gobern, Wotton, Paterson, Rasiak

 

To be fair, that team SHOULD be able to jizz all over a very poor Swindon team. That said, we'll probably loose 5-0!! :rolleyes:

 

I'm in for it as i'll be in the town end with the Swindon fans too...

Again, assuming Murty isn't fully fit, I'd go for ...

 

 

Davis

 

James - Perry - Thomas - Harding

 

Thomson - Spiderman - Gillet - Holmes

 

Lallana

 

Lambert

 

 

Then in the second half, bring on Melis for whoever is performing the worst in the midfield and Thomson off for Paterson (putting Pato up front with Lambert and Lallana on the right)

 

That leaves the two poles spare and Lancastrated on the bench should one of the oldies get too knackered.

Don't understand why we don't put saga & Gobern in midfield as they would run a whole 45 minutes to close down which then would leave the creators to spray the ball across the park.

Been looking at Swindons recent performances and all our away games since the friendlies and it really does point to a Swindon victory, However after looking at the squads we come out 7 nil winners.

Bizarre or wot?

Rasiak, Perry and Murty out Paterson, Lancashire and Mellis in.

 

Davis

 

James

Thomas

Lancashire

Harding

 

Mellis

Schneiderlin

Wotton

Lallana

 

Lambert

Paterson

 

Good to see Pardew has finally seen the light about Perry although Lancashire replacing him is of little comfort.Maybe we won't concede from kids football set pieces today.

 

Still no Gillett, mind you it's not really surprising he is clumsy and dire but then again so is Wotton, probably more so.

Perry struggles to play two games in a week and Murty's not fit. Good to see Paterson starting.

 

Wish we would sign a centre half or two pretty quickly.......Swindon strikers must be rubbing their hands at the thought of facing Lancashire.

And without Gillett in the centre they can go straight through the middle.

2 Lamberts. Wishful thinking on their behalf! It'll be interesting to see how Mellis does. Come on Saints- we really need a win tonight!
