aintforever Posted 20 February, 2010 Posted 20 February, 2010 I'm usually pessimistic but I can see us doing a job today, I think the players will be relieved to get all that cup nonsense out of the way and get a settled team again. 2-1 Saints.
itchen_dan Posted 20 February, 2010 Posted 20 February, 2010 5-1 away win. Nothing to say we can't!! I mean who predicted us to go away to Wolves and win 6-0?!?! Im feeling confident, going for 3-1 win!! COYR!
SO16_Saint Posted 20 February, 2010 Posted 20 February, 2010 Davis Otsemobor Fonte Seaborne Harding Lallana Schneiderlin Hammond Puncheon Lambert Barnard F*CK me that's a great L1 team. Can see us going there today and doing a Carlisle last week and giving their boys a right good seeing to. :smt066
Dig Dig Posted 20 February, 2010 Posted 20 February, 2010 2-2 for me today, in keeping with our earlier results against them. A draw today wouldn't be a bad result but I feel it will be close and could go either way
for_heaven's_Saint Posted 20 February, 2010 Posted 20 February, 2010 if we perform, there's no reason why we can't get a result today. We need to go there and take the game to them, exactly like they have done to us the two times we've played them at sms this season.
ALWAYS_SFC Posted 20 February, 2010 Posted 20 February, 2010 Much like NC i'm looking forward to the team getting back to winning ways at Carrow Road! Much like the rest of the forum i am "looking forward" to you winging like a spoilt brat if we don`t:D
SamKimish Posted 20 February, 2010 Posted 20 February, 2010 Saints 3-1 is my prediction. A day for first goals maybe with Puncheon, Barnard and one of the new defenders getting the goals.
Saint Posted 20 February, 2010 Posted 20 February, 2010 I might put a bet on 2-2. A pretty likely score IMO and i bet the odds are good since it'll be third time in a row.

Glasgow_Saint Posted 20 February, 2010 Posted 20 February, 2010 Davis Otstemobor Fonte Jaidi Harding Lallana Morgan Hammond Puncheon Lambert Barnard Think this is the team as I heard from saintsplayer not much pace in that side.
Avenue Saint Posted 20 February, 2010 Posted 20 February, 2010 (edited) Pardew finally there with team selection! Maybe thomas in for otsemobor but can understand with being former club and point to prove n stuff... Barnard will come good now, very confident with him scoring given this midfield and formation. no matter how sharp the nail, unless u got the hammer, it aint gonna stick. Waigo Lambert Barnard Connolly = beautiful! Edited 20 February, 2010 by Avenue Saint
ALWAYS_SFC Posted 20 February, 2010 Posted 20 February, 2010 not much pace in that side. Never satisfied are you...
beatlesaint Posted 20 February, 2010 Posted 20 February, 2010 IMO that's our best side - easily. Thats available for selection yes i agree. The only change I would make is Connolly back in for Barnard when he is fit...that would be our best team IMHO.
SFC Forever Posted 20 February, 2010 Posted 20 February, 2010 Let us hope that our RB shows up today then. If he does I will be reasonably content with that side.
Glasgow_Saint Posted 20 February, 2010 Posted 20 February, 2010 Never satisfied are you... just an observation -suppose we have some pace on the bench, but would have liked to have seen Waigo start? How quick is Puncheon?
Weston Saint Posted 20 February, 2010 Posted 20 February, 2010 Never satisfied are you...But he is right though despite my agreement with the side to start.
S-Clarke Posted 20 February, 2010 Posted 20 February, 2010 Thats available for selection yes i agree. The only change I would make is Connolly back in for Barnard when he is fit...that would be our best team IMHO. yeah agree with that, other than Connolly being out - it's perfect.
S-Clarke Posted 20 February, 2010 Posted 20 February, 2010 just an observation -suppose we have some pace on the bench, but would have liked to have seen Waigo start? How quick is Puncheon? very quick
Window Cleaner Posted 20 February, 2010 Posted 20 February, 2010 Pardew finally there with team selection! Maybe thomas in for otsemobor but can understand with being former club and point to prove n stuff... It would seem that Semi is our current first choice right back as long as Murty is absent (which will be always),probably better than Thomas as well.
NickG Posted 20 February, 2010 Posted 20 February, 2010 only two I would debate (not having seen Puncheon playing for us) are RB - think Thomas good option Barnard v Waigo. But happy with that side - guessing Waigo/Antonio are good from bench as game opens out
Matthew Le God Posted 20 February, 2010 Posted 20 February, 2010 How quick is Puncheon? I thought you knew as you already claimed that the team had no pace.
ALWAYS_SFC Posted 20 February, 2010 Posted 20 February, 2010 just an observation -suppose we have some pace on the bench, but would have liked to have seen Waigo start? How quick is Puncheon? Only seen him once so not really took too much notice..
Avenue Saint Posted 20 February, 2010 Posted 20 February, 2010 It would seem that Semi is our current first choice right back as long as Murty is absent (which will be always),probably better than Thomas as well. Lets hope he comes good. COYR

But happy with that side - guessing Waigo/Antonio are good from bench as game opens out In the little video that was the backdrop to APs preview the other day Barnard and Lambert were practising their close range scoring skills, got better as well.
beatlesaint Posted 20 February, 2010 Posted 20 February, 2010 Fair play to AP, I did think he would go 4-5-1 and try for a point, cos a point would be a good result there regardless of league position/points total.
Window Cleaner Posted 20 February, 2010 Posted 20 February, 2010 Fair play to AP, I did think he would go 4-5-1 and try for a point, cos a point would be a good result there regardless of league position/points total. After NC told him to win that would be taking this p*ss a bit wouldn't it.
Glasgow_Saint Posted 20 February, 2010 Posted 20 February, 2010 I thought you knew as you already claimed that the team had no pace. Did I say no pace or "not much pace" yep the latter Last week the pace of Owusu destroyed us!
Matthew Le God Posted 20 February, 2010 Posted 20 February, 2010 Did I say no pace or "not much pace" yep the latter Last week the pace of Owusu destroyed us! So the player that played left wing for Pompey had too much pace. Alan Pardew puts a very, very quick right back like Jon Otsemobor in the team, and you complain. Lallana, Harding, Puncheon, Otsemobor are certainly not slow for League One. Antonio and Papa Waigo are options on the bench if needed.
Under Weststand Posted 20 February, 2010 Posted 20 February, 2010 Looks a good side today lets hope Puncheon & Lallana can get good service into Lambert & Barnard, I will stick with my prediction 2-2. I'd be more than happy with a point today, but would happy to sacrifice points in the predictor table for a Saints win. COYR
goodymatt Posted 20 February, 2010 Posted 20 February, 2010 COYS!!! Lets be havin you! best 11 without a doubt imo
beatlesaint Posted 20 February, 2010 Posted 20 February, 2010 After NC told him to win that would be taking this p*ss a bit wouldn't it. Not considering we have won a fait few games playing 4-5-1 no. I would like to think that the Chairman isnt influencing how AP sets up his team.
Gordon Mockles Posted 20 February, 2010 Posted 20 February, 2010 Does anyone know if Puncheon is starting? Was gonna put a bet on!
Window Cleaner Posted 20 February, 2010 Posted 20 February, 2010 Did I say no pace or "not much pace" yep the latter Last week the pace of Owusu destroyed us! what did you expect with Thomas and Perry in the side? That's Thomas's big problem; snail's pace,same with Perry. Reading the game is all very fine but it's worth diddly squat when you have a winger who can run the 100 in about 10.2 and still juggle the ball at the same time, sure they can 'read' the game, from the half-way line looking back.
Avenue Saint Posted 20 February, 2010 Posted 20 February, 2010 Does anyone know if Puncheon is starting? Was gonna put a bet on! yep
ALWAYS_SFC Posted 20 February, 2010 Posted 20 February, 2010 Does anyone know if Puncheon is starting? Was gonna put a bet on! YES...team news in above posts
CWD Posted 20 February, 2010 Posted 20 February, 2010 very pleased with that team, i hope it doesnt let us down. Even if they lose today i hope we keep faith and play the same team next week to let them gel
