Saints vs Man City - Build Up

Never in recent times have i woken up less enthusiastic about going to a game as I am today. I can't see us getting anything at all from this one today. Would also be impressed if we kept city below 4 goals against us.

 

Just one to endure really. Having said that I may not bother either having no interest whatsoever in the mercenaries who play under the guise of Man City who seem to spend most of their time sucking their wrists. It's not that I don't want to watch Saints reserves today but what's the point when the outcome is such a foregone conclusion

Three One Threeee One Three One Three One....Three One Three One Threeeee Oneeeeah. Three One Three One Three One Three One Threeee One Three One Three Oneahhhh.

That's 3-1 to our gallant lads of course...looking forward to the game, ready to croak out all the old songs and get behind the boys.:toppa:

 

Um! Should get a GP appointment first thing on Monday if I were you.

If I couldn't get enthusiastic about a big game against city then I think I'd pick another sport to follow. Ping pong maybe?

Before this run of difficult fixtures, I would have expected a win against Aston Villa and maybe a point or two at least from the Arsenal, Chelsea and City fixtures, largely from optimism generated by our position so far and the 4 points taken from Liverpool and Man Ure.

 

However, that would require us to have the best players all available and with key players like Boruc, Schneiderlin and Wanyama not available and having undergone 3 defeats in a row, I don't think that we will get anything from this match.

Don't need it...60 years of the highs and lows gives you a perspective on defeatist bleating. Live life as realistic optimist and every little upset soon takes its place in the damp stained cardboard box at the back of the shed. I'll enjoy the win even more than the pessimist who think the game is lost before the first whistle.:)

One thing that may help us out is that City face Bayern in the Champions league on tuesday, they will absolutely not want to lose that game

 

They might rest one or two but they've already qualified, and they'd have to beat Bayern by 3 goals to win the group. Wouldn't expect any key players out today...and besides, they've got a pretty deep squad!

I think we can look at today as a bit of a gift really. With our injuries and citys form any other result would be brilliant. gives some of the fringe players a chance to show their worth without too much pressure while osvaldo might well be buzzing after his goal midweek.

 

I'l go for a plucky 2-2 with Osvaldo scoring a worldie ;)
