Some people in this thread DON'T think the match against Southampton is a dead rubber?
How? How can anyone say that with a straight face?
We are mathematically assured of 2nd. We have disgraced ourselves throughout the majority of this season. Yaya, Milner and Lampard have made no secret of their desire to leave the club this summer. Others like Jovetic and Dzeko are nearly certain to follow them. I'd give Yaya and Lampard a spot on the bench so he can come on for his farewell late on, the rest can be dropped completely as far as I care.
If you genuinely value James Milner getting a last run out before joining Liverpool for free, or Jovetic sitting on our bench yet again after scoring 5 goals all season before the future of this club then you are mental.
This is the definition of a nothing game, something we aren't blessed with often. It'd be an absolute failure for us if we persist as normal.
Sorry, have I read that right? We've "disgraced ourselves for the majority of the season"?
For what it's worth, I do think we should have a couple of youngsters involved, but let's not be hyperbolic about this season. It's been a disappointment definitely, but we've hardly disgraced ourselves by finishing second.
