I just hope MP dosn't bottle it and put Guly in at the death

 

Assuming SRL is still unfit and much as I personally would want Gallagher to start I rather think that it will be Guly again. We will look to press them high up the pitch and harry them out of their stride. Guly loves doing doggies, can obey instructions like that to the letter because he is an experienced professional and offers guaranteed defend from the front application on behalf of the team. If you go back to our preseason match against Sociedad in which he started you'll see Mopo made him do exactly that against a team that wanted to be able to pass it around a bit away from home - like Arsenal do.

 

Gallagher might come on as a impact sub after 60 minutes again I think, after Guly has worked the back four over, and himself into the ground.

 

But playing Gallagher from the start is the more glorious decision! Home league starting debut sell out v the leaders and he can be told to get out their and enjoy himself...Mopo cannot really fail on this one as we are expected to lose...picking Gallagher would make me very happy irrespective of the result...I love that we will pick these young kids and give them a chance...

I say put KD in goal and push Boruc up front where his volleying abilities can be exploited.

 

On another note, am stuck in a hotel in the western cape, any stream idea's or should I get drunk and fall asleep ?

i feel like ppl are trolling me lately. It's like 5 points if you can trick Bearsy into making crude joke.

 

Do you like American football? Who do you think is the best wide receiver? Any ideas on the best tight end?

was shearer mega hyped before his debut? I've no idea, before my time, just wondering if people used to know who future stars was back in the days when you didn't have MLG to tell you bout it on internet.

 

People actually paid attention to the Echo back in those days...

I think the young cub starts tonight

 

Good news. Had a hunch Gallagher would start given Rickie's injury coupled with how composed he looked on Saturday.

I was not at SMS for yeovil nor his previous debut so can anyone tell me what his pace is like? Im sure he can win a challenge in the air and can hold and pass and shoot~ and his goal certainly showed he fancies he can get past a defender because he essentially just pushed it across the left back and had enough pace to get in front so he could not be challenged without it being a penalty(incidentally Rickie would not have been able to score that goal) ...but is he as pacey as Guly? Faster? Anywhere as fast as Jrod? If the starting eleven had a twenty metres sprint race where would he come? Anyone got a clue?

Pretty much looking forward to it, as unknown Sam is to us...he's even more unknown to Arsenal, their coaches, their players and fans.

 

We've got every chance to catch them off guard.

 

FFS you or I would be unknown to them. Doesn't mean either of us should be starting. Rationalisations of desperation.

@paulbelvers: BREAKING: Rickie Lambert is NOT in the #saintsfc matchday squad. Looks like he hasn't recovered from a hamstring strain. #BPL #souars

Hmm, he certainly looked quicker than you might expect considering his height. Maybe about Lallana speed.

its moments like this in a young players careers that can set them on the road to stardom

Gosh that brought a lump to my throat. I agree totally. I've not been so excited about a potential debut for yonks..(since rickie had a chance to play v Scotland in fact and before that...well i cant remember..).he is one of our kids ( well ok we got him two years ago from plymouth..) but we trained him and he could possibly be the new number 9....excited for him and wish him all the very best if he starts...

Calm down.

 

Ever heard of giving someone an opportunity? I've not seen anything from him to suggest he's not good enough, so what's to lose?

@samcunningham (Daily Mail): Rickie Lambert still injured so Mauricio Pochettino is handing teenager Sam Gallagher his first start v #AFC. Huge night for him. #saintsfc

is that after he was sent off vs erm brighton was it?

 

That's the one. Guly played up front on his own and scored the opener if I remember correctly...Morgan got one from 25 yards and possibly Connolly?

Their problem, not ours. Sod 'em... Should have set out earlier.

@paulbelvers: No suggestion yet that game will be delayed but am told Arsene Wenger will be unhappy as he insists the team arrive 80 mins before start.

nah sorry bros if you can't make it on time we'll just kickoff without you

 

It will be like one of those school matches when the home team is on the pitch waiting in the cold and rain until the opposition turn up, jump off the minibus, charge on the pitch and go 2-0 up in 5 minutes.

I remember a game at West Ham about 10 years ago where we turned up late, had to sprint from bus to pitch (almost) - and beat them 1-0.

Chambers ahead of Clyne again, MoPo must see him as first choice RB now. Really looking forward to seeing Gallagher up front, we've been poor up top the last few weeks
