Saints vs Borussia Mönchengladbach - Match Thread

Apologies... haven’t seen this elsewhere so thought I’d start it.

 

Soooo,

Weds night. Yoshi, Cedric, lemina, redmond not involved.

Started with maybe 7 of Hughes’s favoured starting XI.

 

I would like to think that the starting XI on Saturday will be much closer to his idea of our best first XI.

Possibly still without yoshi as he’s just come back.

 

In other news, BVM are bringing 800 so it may feel like a real football match rather than a training game

 

My suggestions:

Don’t sell targett... he looked decent on weds.

Gabbi is key, he looked really bright v celta vigo... just play a system that gets the best out of him.

Flog Forster.. even if it’s at a loss. Hs obviously not required so get him off the wage book.

 

Umm.. and that’s it.

Hopefully a few more saints fans will be there Saturday than last night!

Cheers

Nick

Oh, and apologies.

Stuart Armstrong looked promising last night,; sprints into space in front of him with the ball- not seen that since ...erm.. lallana maybe?

If the Northam mongs can get the Celtic Armstrong song going I’ll be stunned!

Think we owe to them to get this class song going after all we keep signing most of their better players.

I'd like to see Sam Gallagher given a start and a decent period of time on the pitch, to see if he might make it this year (as I hope) After all, the point of these friendlies is at least partly to assess players against proper opposition, not just to build up fitness.

You can guarantee the tards will start singing the old Lallana/Tadic song.

Sometimes, he doesn't start every game

Fatigue could set in

But he'll play a lot, hopefully

And he'll improve with time

Doesn't look like that many tickets sold for this considering season ticket holders could claim a free one, nice day with a Saturday 3pm kick off hopefully a decent walk up and make the ground seem more full than it was on Wednesday.

Yeah, I forgot to get my free ticket in time, the deadline was 08.00 on the deadline day, ho hum, so I've made other commitments.

 

We've got a full week to debate amongst my crowd which pub to go to, but KO time against Burnley means we may well have to adjourn to a different one afterwards..

 

In other news my ST arrived this morning so the anticipation can begin. It's a bit like Christmas: when you're young the anticipation starts earlier, now you wait a bit longer but it's still there.

In the words of the mighty, Half Man Half Biscuit... Supercalifragilistic Borussia Mönchengladbach.

 

Great band... Joy Division Oven Gloves my personal fave... Someone actually started making and selling aforementioned items!

Anyone know if print at home tickets will scan from your phone screen?

My print at home tickets didn’t work the other night in the turnstile, so we (and others) had to be checked in through the big exit doors by folks with hand scanners, mine didn’t scan still so the guy tapped in the detail off the ticket.

I’d say give it a go.

Lots of responsibiltlity on Lemina and Armstrong to create something.

 

I think our team is functional but unexciting. Could be a very boring season.

Bertrand can create and Targett got 2 assists last game so I think we can count them.
