Clyne is fast and robust, by far the better of our 2 regular full backs at this stage in theire respective careers, but he's not an

academy lad and doesn't get the same hype.

 

He's hardly made error at back and was getting forward and final ball improving ie providing cross for villa equaliser before he got injured. Hazard will test him as he's given Clyne most trouble this season IMO.

Davis

 

Clyne

Lovren

Fonte

Shaw

 

Morgan

Cork

 

Lallana

Davis

Ramirez

 

Rodriguez

 

Give Lambert a breather, he looked tired today not just in movement but some of his passing looked laboured from the start.

 

This team please, need to look to the future and this would be a good test for jrod and Ramirez.

What's the weather like in SO15 chaps and chapesses? Setting off from flooded Kent shortly but don't want to schlep all the way down the M3 if there's a danger of the game being called off. Forecast doesn't look great (no Tommy jokes please...).

Horrible - and likely to remain wet and windy till kick-off. But I'd say almost no risk of game being called off.

Strong wind with heavier gusts, rain is persistent and does not look like it is going to get any better; will they play, don't know for sure.

East of SO15 it's raining, but the impression is made worse by the wind and the sound of the rain on the pane. Off fairly soon but keeping an eye on the news..

Been off-line for ages (Hooray you all cry)

 

Thought I saw a big change in Gaston when he came on v Everton, besdies the shirt & goal thing.

 

Before the goal, Chambers had bombed up the wing and got caught out of position. Gaston was already back covering him in the RB slot.

 

Also later saw him bust a gut to get back.

 

Perhaps now would prefer him to get more game time than JWP this afternoon, otherwise same side IF they have all recovered with Morgan back in for JWP.

 

Londoner Brew Pub on Soi 33 Sukhumvit tonight. Amazed we bumped into a Saints lass in her SRL Away shirt on Sunday. Shame her hubby was wearing a Lamela shirt.

Crystal Palace a few years ago I believe.

 

Yeah it was, I remember a game in 06/07 against Leicester that they delayed for about half an hour to drain the pitch.

No way jwp will play was rubbish at Everton.

 

 

in a totally different role which he shouldn't have been given in the first place, he's not got the qualities of a DM but we didn't have any choice with 2 of our 3 DMs out for that game. The real solution might have been Clyne at LB and Shaw at DML but perhaps Clyne wasn't up to 90 minutes.

We have gaston and Davis who can play there.

 

 

not really no, it's a specialised role for players who can tackle, don't mind a bit of rough and tumble and who can win the ball in the air, Davis doesn't play well there which is why Mauricio tries to shoe in JWP. When Cork went off on Sunday we had JWP and Davis at DM and it was a shambles which led to Everton just strolling through to score..again.

Well that's not true. Do one.

 

See you've piped up again. He really hasn't, taken off early vs Chelsea, villa and offered v little. Will be great but he's been off form.

Or even Clyne at Right back with Chambers at DM (he was originally a midfielder)?

I do not think Sir Rickie is fully fit.

 

Not sure about one up front.

 

The weather is going to have a huge impact on our game and feel this is the reason for having Rickie on the bench as it will be hard going. Bring him on in the 2nd half and fire some long balls up to him in the wind!

Bring SRL on when we get our penalty !

Feeling more positive now. Chelsea team not as strong as I thought it would be, though they seem to have more 'game changers' on the bench.

 

Really? Looks very strong to me, going to be very tough

Osvaldo still "sick"

 

Mistake to drop Lambert

 

Glad to see Ramirez start - hope he takes his chance

 

Is this like when you said that Shaw was rested for the Spurs game?

 

http://www.saintsfc.co.uk/news/article/shaw-saints-are-back-on-the-up-1259331.aspx

 

The 18-year-old was disappointed to be ruled out of that game, but says that brief absence allowed him to fully participate in a physical game at the Cardiff City Stadium yesterday.

 

“I think it was the right decision in the end,” Shaw said.
