Lets B Avenue Posted 25 November, 2015 Posted 25 November, 2015 Hamstring wasn't it? A positive for Saturday Humour is wasted on you, it would seem.
whelk Posted 25 November, 2015 Posted 25 November, 2015 Humour is wasted on you, it would seem. No I genuinely thought it was a head and shoulder injury. #jokes
SaintTex Posted 25 November, 2015 Posted 25 November, 2015 Think a fit Jay Rod could play there.No such thing.
Cosmic Posted 25 November, 2015 Posted 25 November, 2015 Then again you could say that if your prime creator is crap the rest must necessarily follow, especially with no Mané until the 65th minute. Er, why?
waylander Posted 26 November, 2015 Posted 26 November, 2015 Hamstring wasn't it? A positive for Saturday Given how much we troubled Jack Buckland last Saturday they could probably play Pellegrini in goal and still keep a clean sheet

Jarakka Posted 26 November, 2015 Posted 26 November, 2015 I think even more so than Aguero, if Da Silva plays, we are well and truly done for. I just hope we don't get hammered and maybe rescue a point. http://www.physioroom.com/news/english_premier_league/epl_injury_table.php#c21

I just hope we don't get hammered and maybe rescue a point. http://www.physioroom.com/news/english_premier_league/epl_injury_table.php#c21 Shouldn't be a problem, they don't have any players called Da Silva.

VectisSaint Posted 26 November, 2015 Posted 26 November, 2015 Bit harsh on yourself though, only a "vid" out. Even Ronald referred to him as da Silva in today's press conference. Not very "professional"
Window Cleaner Posted 26 November, 2015 Posted 26 November, 2015 Even Ronald referred to him as da Silva in today's press conference. Not very "professional" And what else was said in said press conference, can't listen to the man myself.
disconnect Posted 26 November, 2015 Posted 26 November, 2015 How long is Good Lad Gardos out for? Always saying we have no injuries bar J-Rod and Forster but pretty sure Gardos is also out still?
Window Cleaner Posted 26 November, 2015 Posted 26 November, 2015 How long is Good Lad Gardos out for? Always saying we have no injuries bar J-Rod and Forster but pretty sure Gardos is also out still? Knee jobby wasn't it, maybe sometime in January-February...won't get a game though unless it's in the Cup. Next season perhaps.
Dalek2003 Posted 26 November, 2015 Posted 26 November, 2015 Damage limitation time. If we lose by less than three I will be happy.

ART Posted 26 November, 2015 Posted 26 November, 2015 I'm not looking forward to this match at all. It will be more of the same, with Koeman playing his usual gang of favorites and failing to be adventurous one little bit. Past managers when playing a game like this with the odds against us have experimented knowing it stood a better chance of getting a surprise result. Rather than playing Long as the direct replacement of Pelle, why can't give Ryan Seagar a game, or play the likes of Van Dijk in attack. We've little to lose and everything to gain. I'd rather something like this than watch the recent dross with Long achieving nothing at all.

for_heaven's_Saint Posted 27 November, 2015 Posted 27 November, 2015 Past managers when playing a game like this with the odds against us have experimented knowing it stood a better chance of getting a surprise result. Can you provide some examples where a) past managers have actually done this and b) it has worked? Other than Ron changing our formation and style with Pelle out at Chelsea last year that is.

Highfield Saint Posted 27 November, 2015 Posted 27 November, 2015 With "honest subtitles" in brackets I'm not looking forward to this match at all (I support a different team). It will be more of the same (90 mins, 11 men a side - round ball, goal posts etc), with Koeman playing his usual gang of favourites (best players) and failing to be adventurous one little bit. Past (failed) managers (like Wotte) when playing a game like this with the odds against us have experimented knowing it stood a better (no) chance of getting a surprise result (unlike we did against Chelsea or Liverpool). Rather than playing Long as the direct replacement of Pelle, why can't give Ryan Seagar a game, or play the likes of Van Dijk in attack. We've little to lose and everything to gain. I'd rather something like this than watch the recent dross with Long achieving nothing at all.
doddisalegend Posted 27 November, 2015 Posted 27 November, 2015 One of those "free hit" games really. I don't really expect much and as long as we have a go I won't get to upset about losing to Man city at their place. Mind you given how inconsistent almost every team ( bar Leicester) is this season you never know we might get something.
hasper57saint Posted 27 November, 2015 Posted 27 November, 2015 I'll be happy with a draw tomorrow. COYS
benjii Posted 27 November, 2015 Posted 27 November, 2015 Not too fussed, would rather give a few youngsters a go and keep others fresh for Wednesday. Obviously we should try to get something but I look at it as an opportunity to try a few things. I would maybe pick: ------------------------------------------------Stek-------------------------------------------- Martina------------------Van Dijk----------------------Yoshida-------------------------Targett -------------------------------Romeu---------------Clasie-------------------------------------- -McQueen-------------------------------Juanmi-----------------------------------Hesketh-- ------------------------------------------Long-------------------------------------------------- Bench: Gazza, Cedric, Caulker, Davis, Mane, Seager, JWP

We'll play more or less the first XI. We might even get accused of throwing a match with a team such as that.. Edited 27 November, 2015 by Window Cleaner
Batman Posted 27 November, 2015 Posted 27 November, 2015 I just hope we come out of the game with no injuries and suspension that would impact on weds
Window Cleaner Posted 27 November, 2015 Posted 27 November, 2015 (edited) I just hope we come out of the game with no injuries and suspension that would impact on weds Liverpool are playing more games than us just now, it is they who should be worried not us. Then again they're probably a better side with their new manager. Edited 27 November, 2015 by Window Cleaner
Saint Charlie Posted 27 November, 2015 Posted 27 November, 2015 Looks like Silva fit which is a blow as he combines superbly with Aguero. However Kompany and Hart may both be missing.
doddisalegend Posted 27 November, 2015 Posted 27 November, 2015 Looks like Silva fit which is a blow as he combines superbly with Aguero. However Kompany and Hart may both be missing. So a high scoring game with neither team able to keep the ball out of their own net.
Batman Posted 27 November, 2015 Posted 27 November, 2015 So a high scoring game with neither team able to keep the ball out of their own net. apart from we have been very poor as an attacking force for the last 2.5 games watch us score 3 tomorrow now!!!
brett24 Posted 27 November, 2015 Posted 27 November, 2015 Coral new customer offer (finished now though) 50/1 for City to win, max £1. Think Coral know we are going to win!
doddisalegend Posted 27 November, 2015 Posted 27 November, 2015 apart from we have been very poor as an attacking force for the last 2.5 games watch us score 3 tomorrow now!!! I thought you put that down to Pelle being an immobile lump? Tomorrow we will have Long running all over the place so goals galore....
Batman Posted 27 November, 2015 Posted 27 November, 2015 I thought you put that down to Pelle being an immobile lump? Tomorrow we will have Long running all over the place so goals galore.... that was just an observation.
Saint Charlie Posted 27 November, 2015 Posted 27 November, 2015 Bony also fit. Richard Wright on the bench. Gardos, Forster and Chung Lee long term absentees for Saints.
brett24 Posted 27 November, 2015 Posted 27 November, 2015 I would rather see Long than Seager, if Seager was better than Long Koeman would play him.
Window Cleaner Posted 27 November, 2015 Posted 27 November, 2015 Bony also fit. Richard Wright on the bench. Gardos, Forster and Chung Lee long term absentees for Saints. didn't know that Tad was still with us actually, thought he went back to Japan ages back.
simo Posted 27 November, 2015 Posted 27 November, 2015 The whole team were carp on sat not just tadic We are always pants after a midweek game or international break !

Their pre-match thread makes ours look pretty optimistic http://bluemoonnew.elasticbeanstalk.com/threads/city-v-southampton-pre-match-thread.317496/

Pelle is suspended for the visitors and they've lost their last few games to Stoke and others and there was me thinking we'd just come of an unbeaten run
Pamplemousse Posted 27 November, 2015 Posted 27 November, 2015 I think we're going to need plenty of these tomorrow

Saint Charlie Posted 27 November, 2015 Posted 27 November, 2015 So, which of this or Liverpool will Yoshida come in for? He will almost certainly start in one those games IMO.
doddisalegend Posted 27 November, 2015 Posted 27 November, 2015 So, which of this or Liverpool will Yoshida come in for? He will almost certainly start in one those games IMO. This one I reckon. Away from home we need to keep it tight and with no Pelle playing Cedric's crossing ability won't be worth much. I can see us playing like Ireland vs Germany defend like hell and hope a long ball falls kindly for Shane Long to put away on the break.
