Lighthouse Posted 11 October, 2020 Share Posted 11 October, 2020 Every result so far has been the opposite of last season, so a certain defeat here. I suppose the main question is whether the three new boys will feature.

Dusic Posted 11 October, 2020 Share Posted 11 October, 2020 Armstrong must be a doubt as would be quarentined in Scotland til Friday if report are accurate. Would imagine Walcott, Salisu and Diallo will all be bench. Chelsea set to have a few back to fitness for this which is a shame. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

skintsaint Posted 12 October, 2020 Share Posted 12 October, 2020 Will be a tough game but defensively they are not the best. Just hope they have an off day going forwards. Werner not scored yet in the EPL as he? Well what a better team to play to get rid of that monkey on his back. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jeremy Corbyn Posted 12 October, 2020 Share Posted 12 October, 2020 We've had some success there in recent seasons and I still remember the 4-2 from 20ish years ago fondly. It's almost impossible to say, both teams are fairly kamikaze in their approach so it really could go either way - but I'm feeling confident after a couple of solid performances, 3-1 Saints.

CamSaint Posted 12 October, 2020 Share Posted 12 October, 2020 One would have thought that when Salisu is eventually declared fit he would need at least one outing in the B team to prove that fitness before he got anywhere near the first team matchday squad.

pimpin4rizeal Posted 12 October, 2020 Share Posted 12 October, 2020 (edited) Think Ralph may go with mccarthy kwp bed vest. Bertrand Romeu. Jwp walcott. Redmond Ings. Che think romeau and vestergaard probably get rewarded for their displays of late so not expecting diallo debut. Moussa hasn’t really been great of late although good goal and Redmond is a real hasenhuttl favourite so can see redders back in. and think Walcott may be more of a rightsided player then djenepo so possible debut for Theo assuming Armstrong isn’t ready to go this week after covid Edited 12 October, 2020 by pimpin4rizeal Auto correct Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Saint_clark Posted 13 October, 2020 Share Posted 13 October, 2020 Dropping Djenepo after scoring would be deeply unfair, so hopefully we might actually see Redmond start a game on the right wing where I believe him to be most effective. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wasn't Mike dean the ref who missed the knee high lunge by Alonso on Long from a distance of 10 yards? Alonso went on to set up 2 goals and subsequently gott a 3 match ban.

The Mike Dean list of crimes against Saints in favour of the big boys is pretty long, and yes that's one of them. Bizarrely on one trip down the Saints we listened to the Peter Crouch Podcast when Dean was their guest, I have to say he was good value on it, well worth digging it out for a listen.

I don't think he actually played for Mali either - so essentially missed two week rehab time. He is a good player and definitely worth persevering with, just needs to find some consistent availability - as he usually makes an impact when he plays. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
david in sweden Posted 16 October, 2020 Share Posted 16 October, 2020 We are all anxious to see the new guys playing, but WHO would you drop in order to put them in? ... two wins, two clean sheets..and Vestergaard finally showing up .. maybe no changes are due yet. " If it ain't broke - don't fix it" ..... and never change a winning side .... Being without Armstrong is a blow, but Theo will start (at least) and maybe prove those doubters wrong. Chelsea may get a lot of the play, but I take it for another Saints win at " the Bridge." Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Saint86 Posted 16 October, 2020 Share Posted 16 October, 2020 (edited) Imagine Redmond and Walcott will play on the wings. We don't have any other obvious choices with Armstrong and Djenpo out. Its that or we have smallbone starting in the AMR spot? Or He plays central and JWP plays AMR? Or Ralph really pushes the boat out and puts Valery as AMR?

S-Clarke Posted 16 October, 2020 Share Posted 16 October, 2020 Salisu still 'weeks away' apparently. WTF is wrong with him? Had he never seen a football before he came here or something? What does he have to get used to that he didn't get in Spain? We signed him back at the end of July (we delayed the announcement for 3 weeks for some reason) and he still hasn't played a min of first team or b team football. No media unveiling, no pictures of his first day etc - very much in the Trousers camp of this entire WTF situation. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
