Is it another VAR-free experience tonight?

Weather could play a part in tonights game. I’m going (I live down here) and it is currently blowing a gale and lashing down with rain. The forecast remains the same for the remainder of the evening/night. Spoke to a number of Saints fans at work earlier…….they ain’t going to the game…..expecting a drubbing.

Ortega
Walker Stones Akanji Gomez
Gundo Phillips Grealish
Alvarez Haaland Palmer

I doubt this will be the team but I would like to see it.

I know a couple of saints fans through work as well, they're a funny bunch. Never seem too bothered about the football, almost as if they know they're not great and don't ever expect that to change!

Oh That sounds bad.

A bit concern for the players, especially attacking players. Utd rested more than half of the key players yesterday. Hope Pep do a big rotation tonight.

Hope he rests Rodri and KDB.

Agree about Rodri but I think Kev probably needs to start (and then be taken off around 60 minutes if we’ve done the job) given he didn’t play at the weekend and he needs to get back in to form.

I fancy us to really strut our stuff tonight for some reason. Early goal and could run away with it.

A breakaway Haaland goal too

Could be my mind playing tricks on me, but I could of swore they knocked us out in front of the bbc cameras on a Sunday. But it wouldn't be the first time I'm wrong.

The rest of your comment still stands.

Just imagine if McTossalot and Robertson played for City, sent off every other week and on constant SSN loops

If McTominay played for City apart from thinking that Pep had lost the plot, I'd be hoping he'd get sent off

About to make the fairly short drive along the coast, and it has been absolutely pissing it down for much of the day. Thunder and lightning on plenty of occasions too. Expecting to get wet.
