Saint_Tony Posted 28 February, 2015 Share Posted 28 February, 2015 We need to get back on track, but this is going to be a tough game. Pulis has done his usual job of turning around a poor side into one that's difficult to play against. Going to have to go for 1-1 (Berahino 17, Elia, 82).

CB Fry Posted 28 February, 2015 Share Posted 28 February, 2015 Anyone hear LvG tripe about united do not have a 20 goal-a-season striker he has, just he is playing one in central midfield and the others are getting woefully used He said none of his strikers are going to score 20 this season, which is slightly different. And when I say slightly, I mean completely different. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

John Boy Saint Posted 28 February, 2015 Share Posted 28 February, 2015 I see we have "not so fat" Phil blowing the whistle today, so with the conspiracy theory that we will be reffed out of the top 4 warming up it will be interesting to see how he gets on.

Turkish Posted 28 February, 2015 Share Posted 28 February, 2015 Isn't our record against WBA pretty awful? Thinking back can only remember is beating them once at the hawthorns in recent times and that was a last minute penalty. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thinking back can only remember is beating them once at the hawthorns in recent times and that was a last minute penalty. Coldest game of my life was 2 seasons back on Halloween or Bonfire night perhaps. Think Shaw made is debut in that game, lost 2-0. It was the cold I remember more than anything.

Thinking back can only remember is beating them once at the hawthorns in recent times and that was a last minute penalty. Southampton beat West Bromich last year Sir! Since I have been a follower of the Club we have only lost twice to them I think in 2012/2013 season. 2-0 today with Pelle and Yoshida on the sheet.

captainchris Posted 28 February, 2015 Share Posted 28 February, 2015 Long has been bad in every game he has played up front on his own. I fully appreciate Pelle is well out of form and also looks knackered to me (they are probably related a bit as well) however his presence is important to the team. He drops deep and Mane and Elia bomb on. It's very simple but the pace of Elia and Mane mean it is hard to stop. What I would do is like to give Pelle more support with players close to him when he has the ball. Many times he drops deeper to get the ball but when he gets to him there is only one option to lay it off to. I would like to see this: ------------forster clyne--fonte-----yoshida--bertrand -----wanyama--schneiderlin Davis--------------------------Tadic ------Mane ------------Pelle Mane is in and around Pelle rather than coming out to in. Tadic and Davis start wide but come inside to allow full-backs to bomb on and have licence themselves to get into the box as Vic and Morgan are covering. Pelle 'drops deep' ????? Well in which millisecond in the last 6 months was that? He doesn't drop deep that's just one of his big problems. He always stands back to goal right I front/next to his marker. He is laughably predictable and easy to mark! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

scotty Posted 28 February, 2015 Share Posted 28 February, 2015 Can we manage to score today? I have my doubts. If pulis knows about anything, its setting up and drilling a defence.

You do realise if that happens you'll have to do this on every Match Build Up Thread Yes, it's become a little obsession of mine having been at 3 homes games without a Saints goal. It's also a bit of a tease to see if anyone has got any ideas. We are relying far too much on Pelle who has lost his touch in the last few months. Maybe today he will regain it and score a hat trick - hope so. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nta786 Posted 28 February, 2015 Share Posted 28 February, 2015 ---------------------Forster------------------- ----------Toby---Fonte---Yoshida------------- Clyne---------------------------------Bertrand -------------Morgan--------Wanyama---------- -----------------------Tadic---------------------- -----------------Mane--------Pelle-------------- This would be my team- Yoshi has been excellent, doesn't need to be dropped IMO, and Tadic, Mane and Pelle is what worked well at the start of the season for us. Bench: Davis, Gardos, Targett, JWP, Elia, Davis, Long Only shame is Reed doesn't make squad and Djuricic! :/ Unless we get rid of Targett to make way for one of them. Guess who basically called it! Only one wrong was Toby who's still injured Me and Koeman- great minds think alike Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
