Have to wait until Thursday I’m pleased to say!

Yes definitely helpful if we still require a win. Don't think Burnley will be holding anything back.

I would love to see the reaction of their fans when he sends the reserves out for the final home match of the season

Don't think the owners would be to impressed either

Won't be shocked it's all over tonight, Champs in all but name.

Do you know if Walker is training?

I fucking hope not, I want them to get stuck In, fight like fuck for every ball, tackle hard to win the ball and really rough them up.
That would do nicely

Konsa probably out so might be Chambers who was awful when we beat Arsenal at home. Get Jesus sending those high floaty crosses from the right to the head of Gundogan again.

Love that optimism. Feeling quietly confident about tonight, too, strangely enough. Liverpool certainly may win and are rightful favourites, but they're missing key men and must be pretty shattered after the weekend's efforts compared to Saints who won't wanna go out with a whimper in their final home game. Plus, Southampton's poor recent form makes it easy to forget that they've turned up against a lot of the bigger sides this year. Obviously they stopped us twice, they also took four points from Spurs and beat Arsenal not long ago, as well as two draws against United to show they can do it against the smaller teams, too. Good luck to them, but even if they don't pull it off, it'll be all the sweeter when we win at the weekend.

Ralph Husenthal (apologies to the spelling police as I’ve probably got his name wrong) isn’t going to ask his team to lie down tonight, he is a decent proud man

They are without van dijk, salah, fabinho, maybe robertson. Thats a big chunk of their starting eleven and tonight is far from the formality the media would love it to be.

 

[Cricket Blue]

I miss the old training reports

Up for it today

COME ON BLUEBOYS

( Still a little worried )
