egg Posted 23 September, 2015 Posted 23 September, 2015 Which appears to be 'up front for malaga' Correct. I was down near malaga the week before last. The malaga fans love him and think that with a run of games he'll be brilliant for us. They can't understand why he's sat on our bench.
fanimal Posted 23 September, 2015 Posted 23 September, 2015 Has to play JRod, Long and Juanmi against a weak MKD team surely? Otherwise what is the point of a big squad?
pluto Posted 23 September, 2015 Posted 23 September, 2015 Another ****e stirring article timed before a match goes out from journo scum Darren Lewis making up tosh again about Holland and Koeman. Plenty of arselicking from him towards Spurs recently !
Batman Posted 23 September, 2015 Posted 23 September, 2015 very strong side tonight eat my left testicle if we dont win with that side Stekelenburg, Cédric, Fonte ©, van Dijk, Targett, Romeu, S. Davis, Juanmi, Rodriguez, Mané, Long. gaston on the bench
CB Fry Posted 23 September, 2015 Posted 23 September, 2015 very strong side tonight eat my left testicle if we dont win with that side Stekelenburg, Cédric, Fonte ©, van Dijk, Targett, Romeu, S. Davis, Juanmi, Rodriguez, Mané, Long. gaston on the bench Indeed. You can't say we're not taking it seriously with that line up. And we should be.
Saint Charlie Posted 23 September, 2015 Posted 23 September, 2015 Very strong. Kind of suprised Mane starts but fair enough. Interesting for the second season in a row the sub keepers arent even considered good enough to even play cup games - but thats the reality! One negative - no youngsters considered good enough to even make the bench ahead of Ramirez.
Lighthouse Posted 23 September, 2015 Posted 23 September, 2015 Excellent team for this match IMO. Maybe half each for Mané and Tadic or even a rare glimpse of the lesser spotted Ramirez. Would be good to see half an hour for Bert as well.
Lallana's Left Peg Posted 23 September, 2015 Posted 23 September, 2015 Indeed. You can't say we're not taking it seriously with that line up. And we should be. Very good team on paper, but if it is Shane Long up front on his own I have some concerns that he will be asked to play like Pelle. Also would it be Jay left, Juanmi middle, and Mane right?
VectisSaint Posted 23 September, 2015 Posted 23 September, 2015 Subs: K. Davis (GK), Yoshida, Tadić, Wanyama, Ward-Prowse, Bertrand, Ramírez.
Batman Posted 23 September, 2015 Posted 23 September, 2015 MK Dons starting 11 Martin; Hodson, McFadzean, Kay, Lewington ©; Aguza, Poyet; Benavente, Baker, Powell; Church.
shurlock Posted 23 September, 2015 Posted 23 September, 2015 All the more of a shame we fielded such s***e in Denmark.
igsey Posted 23 September, 2015 Posted 23 September, 2015 Bit disappointed about the lack of youth - I'd have Wood and Hesketh on the bench at least. Very strong side though, looking forward to this one.
richardc Posted 23 September, 2015 Posted 23 September, 2015 Apparantly Sky just said Bertrands doubtfull with an ankle injury !! So injured he's made the bench
Shandy_Top_89 Posted 23 September, 2015 Posted 23 September, 2015 I think the lack of youth may be related to the u-21 game against Reading, although Bertrand appeared in that too. Good team, with the right players getting game time too. No Reeves in the MK Dons starting line-up, bit of a shame for him.
sadoldgit Posted 23 September, 2015 Posted 23 September, 2015 very strong side tonight eat my left testicle if we dont win with that side Stekelenburg, Cédric, Fonte ©, van Dijk, Targett, Romeu, S. Davis, Juanmi, Rodriguez, Mané, Long. gaston on the bench Is it tastier than your right testicle?
BARCELONASAINT Posted 23 September, 2015 Posted 23 September, 2015 really pleased we appear to be taking this seriously and so we should. I'm sure tonights approach has been very much influenced by our European exit. No excuses tonight for not progressing.
sadoldgit Posted 23 September, 2015 Posted 23 September, 2015 Good to see Juanmi get a game. Good to see too that Ron has fielded a strong side.
rpb Posted 23 September, 2015 Posted 23 September, 2015 guessing no streams at all for this? Maybe here - http://www.vipbox.eu/soccer They are advertising it anyway.
nta786 Posted 23 September, 2015 Posted 23 September, 2015 If someone could post a radio link if there are no streams, I would be very grateful! Thanks
shurlock Posted 23 September, 2015 Posted 23 September, 2015 Reed Played the full 90 - the other day. So? Probably because RK wasn't planning to play him tonight.
DuncanRG Posted 23 September, 2015 Posted 23 September, 2015 Reed Played the full 90 - the other day. Ah, true. Bet he'd have liked to be on the bench though. Really miss Pochettino's attitude to the academy boys.
sadoldgit Posted 23 September, 2015 Posted 23 September, 2015 He has been kept behind to practice his passing back.
Saint Charlie Posted 23 September, 2015 Posted 23 September, 2015 McQueen and Hesketh could easily have made the bench too. If they don't for these kind of games then its very hard for them to get any first team exposure really. Despite his rep for it, I can't really think of any young player Koeman has identified and brought firmly into the first team fold with clear faith and trust. I guess though, ultimately a Manager is judged on results, can't blame him for putting out the best team he can. Many Spurs fans having seen their team tonight will wish MP had RK's attitude to the Cup!
washsaint Posted 23 September, 2015 Posted 23 September, 2015 It's very disappointing to see our younger players being totally overlooked. At least Pochettino had no fear about blooding young players: Koeman does not seem to rate our younguns. Pathway to the first team looks well and truly blocked right now.
BILLY Posted 23 September, 2015 Posted 23 September, 2015 Why isn't Yoshida at right back? because hes ****e
Suhari Posted 23 September, 2015 Posted 23 September, 2015 Very pleased with that line up. What should be our first choice back line - giving them a chance to get used to one another; plus the (current) backup forwards getting a chance to stake a claim. 4-0 win.
Pastor Patrón Posted 23 September, 2015 Posted 23 September, 2015 Great line up, can't wait to see Ramirez come on and go HAM
Dark Munster Posted 23 September, 2015 Posted 23 September, 2015 Is it tastier than your right testicle? He already ate that after the Midtjylland defeat.
CB Fry Posted 23 September, 2015 Posted 23 September, 2015 All the more of a shame we fielded such s***e in Denmark. Amen to that. Where we are now is a rather more longwinded path to the Europa League group stage.
sadoldgit Posted 23 September, 2015 Posted 23 September, 2015 He already ate that after the Midtjylland defeat. Lets hope for a win tonight then or we will never get to hear the beat of tiny batwings.
BARCELONASAINT Posted 23 September, 2015 Posted 23 September, 2015 Manager chooses alot of the youngsters tonight and we get knocked out he is accussed of not taking the competition seriously by some.......manager chooses to take the competition seriously by naming a very strong squad and he is accussed of blocking the youngsters progress......Jesus who would be a manager????......Personally i'm pleased as punch we have named a strong line up.
Saint Charlie Posted 23 September, 2015 Posted 23 September, 2015 Caulker out of favour big time it seems.
Saint Benali Posted 23 September, 2015 Posted 23 September, 2015 Shame some of the youngsters couldn't make the bench. Would of liked to have seen Reed and Hesketh given a chance and McCarthy seeing as our defence has been ****. But its a strong team on paper so no excuses.
Suhari Posted 23 September, 2015 Posted 23 September, 2015 Okay - I'll be the first to say it: looking forward to seeing Gaston feeding clever through balls for Juanmi.
david in sweden Posted 23 September, 2015 Posted 23 September, 2015 GASTON!! ...now.... don't tell me you forgot we are paying him £65k /week:rolleyes:
bjk Posted 23 September, 2015 Posted 23 September, 2015 is this streamed anywhere? Cant find it anywhere been searching for a while

So is everyone. Much better to pick a good side. But must be space for even one U21 player to give them experience and give the others something to work for. Especially for a club whose apparent USP is the Academy.

Would of liked to have seen Reed and Hesketh given a chance and McCarthy seeing as our defence has been ****. But its a strong team on paper so no excuses. Agreed, but those three (named) all played a tough game on Mnday night for U21's.. Maybe in the next round.............
Beckenham Saint Posted 23 September, 2015 Posted 23 September, 2015 Is it just the Saintsplayer radio link for this one then? Good line up. Rather see us take it seriously with our best players than use it as an excuse to blood youngsters and more likely lose...
twopintsnilnil Posted 23 September, 2015 Posted 23 September, 2015 Definitely no stream for this. Anyone know of any broadcast (ie non-internet) radio stream for either Three Counties or Solent?
Benny F Posted 23 September, 2015 Posted 23 September, 2015 Does anyone happen to know how one might watch the game if you cant be there in person?
DJ_TOAST Posted 23 September, 2015 Posted 23 September, 2015 ffs forgot what it's like not to have a stream
Noodles34 Posted 23 September, 2015 Posted 23 September, 2015 if we lose this game, with that team, then we have problems....
stpedro Posted 23 September, 2015 Posted 23 September, 2015 So is everyone. Much better to pick a good side. But must be space for even one U21 player to give them experience and give the others something to work for. Especially for a club whose apparent USP is the Academy. I'm glad we are playing such a strong side. This is one of two competitions we could win, the whole point of football is winning, so why not put out a strong side? Are any of the youngsters better than those on the bench? Probably not. They have to really earn their place not just get a free game in a cup. If we want to grow as a club, we will need a bigger squad, which will lead to more competition generally, and not just for those youngsters. Targett has proved it is possible to start, hopefully it will inspire the youngsters to work harder to get in the match day squad. We are going to get injuries sooner or later and we'll see some of them on the bench then
