Jesus. Suddenly that team feels weak all over, but especially in midfield and Sharp not starting. Good luck to the lads, hopefully the feeling of playing at the highest level and being the underdogs will inspire them to find a little extra.
S-Clarke Posted 19 August, 2012 Posted 19 August, 2012 No sign of Sdr. His days are numbered methinks
niceandfriendly Posted 19 August, 2012 Posted 19 August, 2012 Could be 5,6 or 7 nil. Just do your best boys.
beavis17 Posted 19 August, 2012 Posted 19 August, 2012 No sign of Sdr. His days are numbered methinks And Hammond and Chaplow...
JustMike Posted 19 August, 2012 Posted 19 August, 2012 ****ing hell.... Guly away . Ok, nevermind, coyr lol, I thought the same
once_bitterne Posted 19 August, 2012 Posted 19 August, 2012 If you seen any pre season games then you would have seen a very overweight and slow Lambert so no surprise he's on the bench.
S-Clarke Posted 19 August, 2012 Posted 19 August, 2012 Don't underestimate prowse by the way. Will be wanted by everyone by january
modern matron Posted 19 August, 2012 Posted 19 August, 2012 I hope Ramirez isn't watching this could get ugly.....no Lambert, no Davis, no defenders, no chance.....
Georgie Posted 19 August, 2012 Posted 19 August, 2012 Let's hope city have an off day. Hmm wishful thinking!
S-Clarke Posted 19 August, 2012 Posted 19 August, 2012 I hope Ramirez isn't watching this could get ugly.....no Lambert, no Davis, no defenders, no chance..... Calm down
MOSaint Posted 19 August, 2012 Posted 19 August, 2012 If this is going to be the way forward this season, you can see why we're want both Ramirez and Phillips.
Gingeletiss Posted 19 August, 2012 Posted 19 August, 2012 Ahem!!............. OfficialSaints #SaintsFC substitutes vs Manchester City: Gazzaniga (GK), Lambert, S. Davis, Sharp, Richardson, Shaw, Seaborne.
Thedelldays Posted 19 August, 2012 Posted 19 August, 2012 I hope Ramirez isn't watching this could get ugly.....no Lambert, no Davis, no defenders, no chance..... They beat everyone at home last season... Bar 1. Which they drew
Counterforce Posted 19 August, 2012 Posted 19 August, 2012 5Live were reporting that Barnard is starting up front, ha ha... Now corrected. But they're going crazy about Lambert not starting...
JustMike Posted 19 August, 2012 Posted 19 August, 2012 If this is going to be the way forward this season, you can see why we're want both Ramirez and Phillips. CM worries me too now!
beatlesaint Posted 19 August, 2012 Posted 19 August, 2012 Guly and Puncheon?? No Lambert?? Im still struggling to come to terms with that little trio of selections.
grammy Posted 19 August, 2012 Posted 19 August, 2012 So when we're 3-0 up we can sing "We've still got Rickie on the bench" COYR Have a real go for the big man upstairs!
S-Clarke Posted 19 August, 2012 Posted 19 August, 2012 We want more mobility when we get the ball, hence jay. We also have no other options on the flanks. Not sure what others expected.
Saint Charlie Posted 19 August, 2012 Posted 19 August, 2012 This is a joke, surely? We aren't going to have much of the ball, need to be mobile. Lambert can have an impact from the bench.
Thedelldays Posted 19 August, 2012 Posted 19 August, 2012 This is a joke, surely? Maybe he has a slight knock?
CumbrianSaint Posted 19 August, 2012 Posted 19 August, 2012 god im so frigging excited, ive even been humming tineh tempah all day, who gives a flying fck if we lose WE ARE BACK WOOOOT
Avenue Saint Posted 19 August, 2012 Posted 19 August, 2012 Adam Lallana captains #SaintsFC today. Called lallana for captain few months back, nice to know Adkins listening...
St Jim Posted 19 August, 2012 Posted 19 August, 2012 their bench is strong too! But do they have SRL on their bench?.....
once_bitterne Posted 19 August, 2012 Posted 19 August, 2012 Maybe he has a slight knock? Stone overweight. Awful in Preseason. No surprise.
Saint Garrett Posted 19 August, 2012 Posted 19 August, 2012 No shock to me that Lambert isn't playing. Looked way off the pace in pre season to me.
beatlesaint Posted 19 August, 2012 Posted 19 August, 2012 We want more mobility when we get the ball, hence jay. We also have no other options on the flanks. Not sure what others expected. So Jay been plauing left midfiel/forward all pre-season and what now ? he is up front thru the middle is he.....or is that Guly ?
Thedelldays Posted 19 August, 2012 Posted 19 August, 2012 So Jay been plauing left midfiel/forward all pre-season and what now ? he is up front thru the middle is he.....or is that Guly ? It's pre season. Or it was. Does nt mean that is that
itchen_dan Posted 19 August, 2012 Posted 19 August, 2012 Look. I'm 90% sure the team v Wigan will look so much stronger than the one playing today. No one is expecting a victory. We may as well wait until S. Davis is fully fit before playing him, we may aswell give Jay a go, same with Guly, Punch and Prowse. Next week we could have Ramirez, we could have Phillips, we could have a new CB, we could have S. Davis starting. No panic today no matter what the result is IMO.
S-Clarke Posted 19 August, 2012 Posted 19 August, 2012 So Jay been plauing left midfiel/forward all pre-season and what now ? he is up front thru the middle is he.....or is that Guly ? Hes not been good there though. A waste of his talent. Would imagine guly from the right, punch from the left and jay up to. And in terms of the flanks. Who else do we have? Hence our urgency to sort...
St Jim Posted 19 August, 2012 Posted 19 August, 2012 #SaintsFC team vs Manchester City: Davis, Clyne, Fonte, Hooiveld, Fox, Ward-Prowse, Schneiderlin, Lallana, Puncheon, Guly, Rodriguez. Interesting starting line up..........interesting in the same way as dropping the soap at Parkhurst is.........we're in for one hell of a rogering!
Dibden Purlieu Saint Posted 19 August, 2012 Posted 19 August, 2012 Perhaps Adkins is trying to get himself sacked today.
