Unbelievable Jeff Posted 16 December, 2014 Posted 16 December, 2014 Cue the masses complaining about Bertrand playing in an attacking left role, from memory that is where he played in the CL final. He did indeed sir.
Pamplemousse Posted 16 December, 2014 Posted 16 December, 2014 We took 22 players on the northern road trip. Absences tonight are Pelle, Tadic, Davis, Hesketh - who is the fifth absentee? 3rd goalkeeper? Cropper?

Matthew Le God Posted 16 December, 2014 Posted 16 December, 2014 Only six subs Yes why? Saints took 22 players north both Burnley and Sheff Utd game and stayed over the weekend. Included in that 22 players squad is... Tadic - Koeman said was not fit S.Davis - injured Pelle - suspended Hesketh - injured That leaves Saints with 18 players in the travelling party and I guess they haven't bothered naming Cody Cropper as another keeper sub along with Kelvin Davis, so down to 17 players.
whelk Posted 16 December, 2014 Posted 16 December, 2014 When we knew Pelle was suspended could we not have at least drafted a youth striker in
Stu Man Do Posted 16 December, 2014 Posted 16 December, 2014 Seeing as he highlighted the Davis injury before the reserves played last night wouldn't it have made sense to move Rowe Seaver or sims up to Sheffield (they were only in Nuneaton) so we could fill the bench. Not many attacking options in that lot is there?! Solid first team but not seeing a lot of creativity in that little lot!
nta786 Posted 16 December, 2014 Posted 16 December, 2014 Nice lineup apart from Mane. Hope Reed gets some game time. Right, so if Mane gets a couple of goals then what... Perfect for him to regain some much needed confidence.
Window Cleaner Posted 16 December, 2014 Posted 16 December, 2014 When we knew Pelle was suspended could we not have at least drafted a youth striker in Well no, they played last night.
whelk Posted 16 December, 2014 Posted 16 December, 2014 Well no, they played last night. I know that. The more important game was it?
Saint Matty 76 Posted 16 December, 2014 Posted 16 December, 2014 We're never going to be a top 6 side if we have players like Mayuka or Isgrove even getting close to making the bench.
Window Cleaner Posted 16 December, 2014 Posted 16 December, 2014 I know that. The more important game was it? What's the point of trailing someone all the way up to Sheffield to sit on a bench, Mayuka is probably equally as good as any of the U21s who played last night for that. Don't think the 2 groups train together much at all really.
Lighthouse Posted 16 December, 2014 Posted 16 December, 2014 When we knew Pelle was suspended could we not have at least drafted a youth striker in Apparently their isn't one suitable or we'd have done it.
St Chalet Posted 16 December, 2014 Posted 16 December, 2014 Strong team, lightweight bench with exception of Toby.
Pastor Patrón Posted 16 December, 2014 Posted 16 December, 2014 Right, so if Mane gets a couple of goals then what... Perfect for him to regain some much needed confidence. Then we drop him because he's sh#t and Sheff United are in league 1.
Asaint4ever Posted 16 December, 2014 Posted 16 December, 2014 any streams for this game tonight chaps?
Saint Charlie Posted 16 December, 2014 Posted 16 December, 2014 Strong team, lightweight bench with exception of Toby. Our bench is mostly crap this season.
Wrensup Posted 16 December, 2014 Posted 16 December, 2014 I worry about where our creativity is going to come from in that line up. Reed may as well not be on the subs bench as Koeman has zero intention of playing him. Isgrove and Mayuka are pointless, Seager and Sims would have been better bench options. Think we could all be in for a long night 0-0, extra time and pens Good old fashion wing play I'd imagine will be coming from the left?
Wiggles31 Posted 16 December, 2014 Author Posted 16 December, 2014 Stream meh! Few absentees but still a strong enough team to beat Sheff Utd. Think it'll be a stressful 2-1 with us defending the last 10 mins. Remind me, does this go to ET? Intrigued to see How Bertrand and Targett works out. Think it could work out well.
Unbelievable Jeff Posted 16 December, 2014 Posted 16 December, 2014 I haven't heard who's playing for them? Is Brian Deane playing?
Saint Charlie Posted 16 December, 2014 Posted 16 December, 2014 I haven't heard who's playing for them? Is Brian Deane playing? Think they have rested a couple, well left first teamers on the bench.
