S-Clarke Posted 24 February, 2013 Share Posted 24 February, 2013 Not sure why people are so desperate to see Forren in the 11. The back 4 have done fine, we also have Fonte available today who has been our best CB this season. Forrren will get his chance, but not just for the sake of it.

Winchester Red Posted 24 February, 2013 Share Posted 24 February, 2013 What's the point in Forren? Got to earn his place. Fonte was great before he got injured so why should he be ignored. Maybe we should play 4 centre backs Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Agree with that in principle, although given our transfer policy is only to bring in players that are better than what we've got it would appear slightly odd not to include said "better player"...

Well, he's a better option that Aaron Martin and Seaborne as the 4th CB - so I'd say we've got a player better than what we had! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NewYorkSaint Posted 24 February, 2013 Share Posted 24 February, 2013 Very, very happy with that team. Lallana was our best player first part of season, and if he's back on full song, I'm excited. Puncheon, Ramirez available as impact subs. Slightly surprised that Jos in ahead of Jose. But he's been strong last few games. Maybe the early problems weren't so much him as lack of Cork. Exciting couple of hours ahead... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guan 2.0 Posted 24 February, 2013 Share Posted 24 February, 2013 Hmm, Lallana back as captain... Maybe being given a chance to fail in that role? Punch out is a big miss - but still optimistic of a result. Oh and if gtomlinson is reading, here is the song we sing every game without fail. It's been number 1 in Southampton for the last 10 years, and we don't even bother to change the lyrics for venue or team Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lord Duckhunter Posted 24 February, 2013 Share Posted 24 February, 2013 What's the point in Forren? Perhaps Jos is playing better because he's suddenly not an automatic choice to replace Fonte. Sometimes bringing more competition in, brings more out of the existing players. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NewYorkSaint Posted 24 February, 2013 Share Posted 24 February, 2013 I'm genuinely surprised that bookies have Newcastle twice as likely to win as Saints given recent form of both teams. If I could bet legally on this from the US, I'd be popping a few on Saints at 12 to 5... But we shd make no mistake: win a giant result for us. Draw wd be great too.

studentsaint Posted 24 February, 2013 Share Posted 24 February, 2013 Slightly harsh on punch but MP saidd he euld make changes based on training performances so AL has obviously impressed the new man. Its strange Ye gas only been here a month and I already have full confidence that he will choose the right XI. Big pith at SJP I'd like to see Mayuka off the bench.

SNSUN Posted 24 February, 2013 Share Posted 24 February, 2013 Looking at the two teams I think Newcastle could do us, but let's not get too deflated if that happens! A draw would be a good result IMO. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
