This is a huge game for us and a must win game!

 

Also it looks as though both Cedric and Bertrand will be out for the majority of the Xmas period.

 

Team for me in this one

Would love to see this line up, trading Tadic for Targett, but it will never happen. MP is too stubborn on his 1 striker setup, I guess because it works so well for us.

This is my first game at St Mary’s since I left for Canada.

My last was a 3-0 home defeat by west Brom at the end of the 2012/13 season.

I’ve been looking forward to this game since June when I booked my flights but slowly my excitement has become less and less! Hoping we turn in a performance like the Everton game!

4-0 Saints

Please no McQueen he is dreadful and has no pace, at least Targett has some pace, 352 again, Van Dijk back in if he's committed, Ideally I would love to see the below starting lineup.

 

FF

Van Dijk Yoshi Hoedt

JWP Lemina Romeu Targett

Boufal

Austin Gabba

Do some fans just randomly pick a player to hate and then draw the reason out of a hat?

A little bit of good news I guess.

 

Huddersfield Town forward Elias Kachunga could be out for up to three months with a knee injury, the club have confirmed.

Would love to see us have a real go at them from the off, get the crowd into it, grab a couple of goals but I fear that approach is too risky for MoPe and his agenda of trying not to lose heavy, but somehow lose 1-0 to the only shot on target (usually from outside the box).

 

Come on Saints, ignore the negative **** and go balls to the wall!

Not too far off, someone will have a moan about a player then, a few others will join in, then someone with a regular posting history will put in their detrimental five penneth, which then qualifies said players Permanent rubbish abilities, thus achieving the sheep effect, where even if the player scored a perfect double hat-trick 2 weeks running every month, they would still be carp for the rest of the season, especially if they farted out key when bending over to adjust their shin pads.

Of course the bulk of the decision making of a players carpness is based on watching the games on a device able to pick up a dodgy stream of North American output, and not actually attending a game and observing the overall performance.

:D

Excuse me, would you mind not jumping up in front of me anytime anything happens please, I can't see what's going on? If Davis and Prowse scored 10 goals EACH in a SEASON, I would be quite happy. They can't at all, so they ARE shiiiite. As is "I will fall to the ground and hold my arms out" Forster. If the team's performances are appalling, then I am going to complain about that. Saints average wage is now £49,000 + a week. For that money, I will criticize them as often as they play shiiite. Play well and problem solved.

SO you're the bugger kicking the back of my seat for 62 minutes at Home games!!!

Why wouldn't Pied start at RB in place of Cedric? Boufal has to play - Austin and Gabbiadini up front; and I'd start Romeu, Lemina and Hojbjerg provided Lemina's ankle is ok - and give both Lemina and Hoj licence to play box-to-box roles.

So you're dropping Jack Stephens who I thought was hands down our best player in the back 3, if not the entire team against Chelsea. He was leading the defence as well, talking to Yoshi, JWP and Hoedt through the entire game.

 

There is no way I'd be dropping Stephens, when on form I think he is our best center half other than a committed VVD in his prime.

Posted

For such a big game you pick your best XI.

 

For me that is:

 

 

Forster

 

Pied - VVD - Hoedt - Bertrand

 

Lemina - Romeu

 

Tadic - Davis - Boufal

 

Austin

I drew Foster being cack as the reason

Posted

Forster

Stephens Yoshida Hoedt Bertrand

JWP Lemina Romeu Boufal

Gabbiadini

Austin

 

Would consider Tadic, VVD, Hojbjerg and Pied for inclusion. JWP gets in on the basis of giving the side a better balance rather than because I think he's one of our better players.

Posted

Assuming Cedric, Bertrand and Lemina won't be 100% fit (?), I'd go for....

 

 

--------------------- Forster -------------------------

 

------ Stephens ----- VvD --------- Yoshida -------

 

Pied --------------------------------------- McQueen

 

--------------------- Romeu -------------------------

 

--- Hojbjerg -------- Boufal ------------ Tadic ------

 

---------------------- Austin -------------------------

 

subs: McCarthy, Hoedt, JWP or Davis, Hesketh, Redmond, Gabbi, Long

 

Can't beat a traditional 3 - 2 - 1 - 3 - 1 formation :)

No mate, they have had an issue with a player for a while and are not adult enough to change the opinion despite

actual events proving the initial issue wrong... bit sad but some cannot help it.

 

And bizarrely they seem to think that slagging of an individual especially at a game will improve the performance and do not understand the concept that encouragement can help....

Posted

They didn't look too threatening earlier against us at their place when they were on their decent run. Can see a 2-0 win. Redmond double...one from 30 yards in off the bar.

Posted
Got that weird feeling of 'if we win he'll stay and i think we'll go down', but if we lose i think he'll be sacked and won't go down.

 

Yet most of me still wants us to win as always.

t

I confess to once turning up wanting us to lose for this very reason, and it was Steve Wigley. Got my wish that he was sacked, but sadly we still went down! While we were in a worse position league table wise there are some uncomfortable parallels as that season we wasted a lot of very winnable home games before Xmas. While Harry had his faults for sure, the team he put together was much stronger after January but we had left things to late. So since then I vowed to be careful what you wish for!

Too much sun in Perth mate.

This game is kind of a win win. Lose it and MP will be sacked. Win it and it will be three crucial points, hopefully on the road to him seeing the light about not changing the team too much, picking the right players, etc etc

Posted
What happens if we don't? (apart from a meltdown on this forum)

 

We don't pick up 3 points !? Do you want me to explain to you why that is a bad thing ?

Especially when the Jaidi , Watson and Davis dream team take us thru Christmas after Les makes Mope the fall guy for his **** ups !:lol:

LOL, I don't think I've ever seen Redmond kick the ball 30 yards.

Have to disagree with this.. I like Stephens and he has bags of potential but looked out of his depth vs Chelsea and almost cost us 2 goals with mistakes he made.. I would put VVD back in for this one

Posted

I admire the OP's optimism with 2 up front but this manager has never ever shown any inclination to start with 2 up front and I don't see him changing it for this game.

 

He'll probably start with 1 up front, try to nick a goal and then go ultra defensive because he hasn't got a clue and doesn't care if he bores everyone senseless.

He does when he tries to trap it

What time do the players start arriving before the game, My lad wants to get his match attax signed. Thanks.

 

Would hate for your lad to be disappointed,but sometimes the team doesn't turn up at all.

I get the feeling VVD might be getting wrapped in cotton wool for a January sale, so I'm assuming he's out ... as well as Cedric (injury).

 

Forster

Stephens Hoedt Yoshida Bertrand

Hojbjerg Lemina

Tadic Davis Boufal

Austin
