Pamplemousse Posted 2 October, 2018 Share Posted 2 October, 2018 Right, on to Sunday... Chelsea are on top form at the moment, think this one will be a struggle for us. We rolled over at Liverpool so let's hope for a bit more of a fight. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ericofarabia Posted 3 October, 2018 Share Posted 3 October, 2018 Can't see anything but a Saints victory. Imagine how much confidence beating Everton reserves in penalties will have given the whole squad. The push for Europe starts here, Top 6 and Wembley Cup Final .... happy days. Obviously last night's the effects of last night's BrewDog 5am Saint Bottles haven't worn off yet!! Shame Chelsea don't have a tough away Euro game in some foresaken Hell Hole of a place tomorrow, but a home tie against a team I've never ever heard of, so no Euro hangover t help us out. Best we can hope is that it's a team of cloggers who take out Giroud and any other 1st teamers who may get a few minutes on the pitch!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

egg Posted 3 October, 2018 Share Posted 3 October, 2018 If we play 442 they'll destroy us. Imagine our usual 2 CM's against Kante, Kovacic and Jorginho. Carnage. We need 3 in the midfield to have any chance of keeping the score respectable. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tajjuk Posted 3 October, 2018 Share Posted 3 October, 2018 Hazard is close to unplayable at the moment. It's another free hit IMO, they are in too good form, plus they will probably start Giroud who always scores against us. I also think Hughes will play 4-4-2 again and that will leave the defence horribly exposed, with Kante, Jorginho and Kovavic dominating the game. We might sneak a goal because they seem to be playing David Luiz and he's always got a mistake in him. I think we will beat a top 6 team this year, but we need one of them that turns up in bad form or having played a tough champions league game.

saints-cris Posted 3 October, 2018 Share Posted 3 October, 2018 They say football is a funny old game, but I don't see any surprised here. Hazard is on fire, Giroud always scores against us - so I figure we'll need at least 3 to win. Seems unlikely. Free hit, we'll probably go 5-4-1, try and stop them playing but it will just invite swarms of pressure. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But if you want to know I think he was playing as a wide sweeper dropping forward to cover the largest area of turf per mile, which I think annoyed big Dave on radio solent. I wasn't at the game, so therefore my knowledge of football has decreased by 10 percent, hopefully going this weekend will increase it by circa 5%.

OttawaSaint Posted 3 October, 2018 Share Posted 3 October, 2018 Something has happened with Hoedt and Hughes. Hoedt is having a meltdown and cleared his IG account and any mention of saints. Hughsie must have announced his line up to the players with Hoedt not starting. Don't understand the tantrum (if true), surely he has enough self-awareness to realize he's not played that well. I though the black box was supposed to keep us away from players like this (obv not, re: Wanyama, VVD, Osvaldo etc.) and steer us towards players that'll say "you're right gaffer" and then they up their level in training.

Would much rather see Yoshida or Bednarek picked in the league side as Hoedt is absolutely crap at defending. I don't buy all this "he will be good eventually" stuff. To me, he looks like he doesn't have the defensive instincts or attitude to be a success in this league.
