Saints v Fulham Build Up


Cheese on Toast

Recommended Posts

Cork is the only one confirmed by Saints. Seems to be enough detail to suggest Gaston is out. Morgan 50/50 - probably sub. Hope we don't have to rush him back. Haven't heard anything about Clyne, Jos. Rumours Lee could be back, at least as sub.

It sounds dramatic but these are the sort of games we must win at home if we are to stay up.

 

I fully agree. Fulham are nothing special and it's these sort of games you look back on at the end of the season if you do go down as ones where we should have picked up points.

A touch too dramatic. We need 40 points. Possibly less. They can come from anywhere.

 

For 27 years of my supporting life we lost to teams like Fulham, Bolton, Blackburn, Luton, Brighton, Villa, Sunderland and worse. And beat the Champions.

 

We could do with a win today for sure - for confidence and because we need a fortress.

 

But today won't decide anything alone. Keep calm and carry on ;)

Having already lost to Wigan that is one should win game already gone. We probably need 10 wins at home and then try to pick up 10 points away. I would say today is absolutely one that we should be winning as we will do well to get a point against Spurs in our next one. If we don't win today it's one win from our first five home games and we'd probably then need to win nine from our next fourteen.

Totally agree.

we need to come out the blocks from the off.

they are beatable and we need 3 points in the bag.

if this turns into another wiganesque performance Adkins needs to look at himself and his future needs to be under serious scrutiny.

i do hope it does not come to that however.

3-1 Saints with my optimistic hat on.

defeat is not worth contemplating.

such an important game even though it is early in the season.

perhaps the 'we have had terrible fixtures' thing can be put to bed after today.

and if we were to lose I wager some numpty will trot out' look where we were 2 seasons ago' bollix.

I suppose if Gaston is out we will keep Jay Rod in the team, playing out of position again !!

 

Jrod played up front last week with lambert So don't think so. I reckon mayuka will play. Hooilveld will play and Fonte out. With Morgan and Ramirez we will struggle. Even if we win it's not as pleasing to watch on the eye without gaston :(

Who gives a ****? If we win I'll be incredibly happy no matter how we play.

They are one of the worst teams away from home in the league, so I disagree.

 

Dangerous team though, full of PL quality. Much better than Wigan in that respect, and they have a hell of a lot more about them than Villa. Will be very, very tough today.

So that's what happened at the training ground. One of the pitches collapsed injuring half of the first team squad.

 

Funny how we were talking about Harchester United only the other day, it's the sort of thing that happens to them.

Is Clyne injured? Must be to miss out completely, since he's been one of our brighter players this year. (edit - saw the confirmation tweet as I submitted this post)

 

Does look like 4-4-2 though and definitely more defensive, but at lest we might see what JRod can do up front. Hopefully he plays just ahead of Rickie.
