Thankfully, the club physios will be in a much better position to make that decision than you chaps.

It's entirely possible that the tightness has eased and they don't consider there to be any risk of damage if he plays a part of the game today. 

You are completely making up different little scenarios in your head aren’t you bless you.

I find it really interesting that a load of random people on a forum have more insight into a players injury than the club.

Does anyone seriously think Adams would be dropped or rested or whatever you want to call it if he was 100% fit?

Also, it's not the manager who would be clearing a player to start or not, it's the physio team. But don't let that stop you frothing at the mouth with indignation about something you have no idea about.

Why doesn't DT just go and "support" another team who make him happy?

Anyway, another post wasted expressing my frustration at his sheer, unremitting, repetitive negativity.

Trousers will be happy with the two nippers on the bench..

You don't have to read his posts

If he's injured, he wouldn't be on the bench. Tired, sure, bench makes sense, but not for injury.

I hope so. Tight hamstrings can be exacerbated by the slightest thing. Going for sprints, changing direction or recieving a hard challenge can turn it into a 6 week+ lay-off. Hopefully it's one of those special tight hamstrings that lets you do those things with minimal risk 👍

I partly agree with this based on the entirety of how he was during the transfer window.

But on this occasion even I’m in agreement with him regarding team selection.

And so am I - but I think he should get off the fence and tell us whether Ralph should stay on as Manager or not!

I’d like to express my frustration at you using your last post to  express your frustration, but I have unlimited posts so it’s not quite so frustrating for me, so I concede to your greater level of frustration. Enjoy your pre match  ale, and hopefully the game as well.

Presumably Lyanco is RB? We might be okay if Stu is on has game and Diallo picks up where he left off on Wednesday, I’m guessing Aribo is further forward? 

3 at the back, Moi right wing back, Perraud left, A. Armstrong up top on his own (fucking hell) with S. Armstrong and Aribo playing just behind him.

So we’re missing our best full back our best centre back our best central midfielder and our best striker. Oh dear 

When life gives you lemons ...

... use them alongside the large glasses of tequila or gin you can have, to take away the pain of watching the team. 🙂

 

(I had a back up when life gives you lemons, take 11 of them and call them a Southampton side, but it might be taken as a bit harsh)

Some day I might understand why we insist on passing the ball backwards and sideways all the way to the keeper just to punt it as long as possible straight to the opposition anyway. 

My biggest annoyance with RH tactics. Almost every time there is a forward looking ball on to spring a player but no, too risky to lose the ball. But then we let them get set and then hoof it back to them.
