Anyone heard any news on Boruc ? Still 'dizzy', or fit to play?

MP on Boruc illness: "The doctors think he picked up a virus whilst away but he has trained well since Monday." #saintsfc

Adam was carrying a groin injury incurred during the Liverpool game. He started training including running again on Monday and is expected to be available

 

Shouldn't imagine he'd start though.

What he say about mayuka. Interesting to see that it was Crosby who wrote the training ground note not Adkins when he left.

where have you heard this?

It makes little difference who is "captain". Lambert can still help raise the game of the players on the pitch even if Lallana has the armband.

 

How do you know?

It didn't take long, new manager Nigel Adkins is already quoting Sun Tzu's Art of War in his pre-match presser. #saintsfc #readingfc

well that will pass completely over the head of your average Reading fan then. As will his Liebnizian philosophy in general.

Adkins says it is a joy to watch the way #saintsfc play,will have no issue shaking Pochettino's hand & will invite him in for a drink after.

Top man.

 

Hope he's still purring about us after the game Saturday.

Just as long as he doesn't have the team in for a drink before.

To be fair, it passed over my head too.

Word. I had a mate who picked up a nasty virus while visiting Eastern Europe on a stag weekend. Must be something in the water or cabbage or something? MLG please confirm.

Nige certainly has a better record in the 'basement battles' winning twice against villa, once against reading and one against Qpr. Wigan was early so the only blemish was Sunderland. Poch has only got 1 point from Wigan and Qpr. He seems more of a man for the big dogs.

To me Adkins seemed to talk down to the run of the mill supporter, then I gave up with his banalities and clichés so I couldn't

say if it got better or worse .

Of course this is a game for us to win.

As MP always says, that should always be our mindset.

 

If they wanna try to outplay us passing, that will only benefit us I think.

Their major threat for us to defend will be set pieces, really need to have our focus 100% defensively there.

 

And you are right (personally I think we'll murder them if they try to play us at our own game) - now if they park the bus i'd be more worried about the set pieces - you can bet your bottom dollar that if they get within range whoever is on the ball will go down like a shot.

Parking the bus would be suicidal for them,we could not possibly have the 21 or so goal attempts that we had against QPR again and not score more than 1 goal. I hope that MP keeps faith in the same side as for Chelsea game and does not revert to starting Lallana because for me JRod has become our most potent striker.

If Lallana is fit, I'd play him on the right and drop Puncheon to the bench.

Not sure. Can quite easily see Gaston on the bench again, as we all know his away performances haven't been ideal - and that team has worked pretty well together. Davis was excellent against Chelsea.

Hmmm. He did well with what he usually does well at; shot stopping. Boruc was brilliant at throwing the ball out to our defenders to play, Davis did barely none of that. And his kicking was really poor on a few occasions. He did ok against Chelsea, but I hope we have Boruc back.

S-Clarke and I were talking about who to play between Steven Davis and Gaston Ramirez, not Kelvin Davis.
