Southampton (A) - FA Cup QF | Pre-Match Thread

[Bluekiwi]

Soton did show already two times they can close us out I want to see Pep coming up with an incredible tactical tweak for this one.

4-3-5 formation maybe. :))

A bit of wishful thinking perhaps with that formation - the ref on our side, never.
4+3+5 = 12
That is usually what our opposition is.

This game might just come at the right time for us. Since we drew with them away we've dropped a few points and Liverpool are obviously on a great run. Hopefully we win, what will be a difficult away game and it gives the players some momentum to take in to the Burnley game. Then the small matter of Liverpool at home. Bring it on.

No real need to rest/rotate with the international break coming up, but I'd be tempted to make a couple of changes regardless. Maybe bring Gundogan, Jesus and Sterling in?

 

[Oldham Exile]

Anyone received Adult and Junior tickets for this match - and able to tell which is which?

I have ordered and received 7 - 4 adult and 3 juniors - but they all look identical apart from the seat number

We cannot all travel together on Sunday so I want to dish them out - but I have no idea which are the junior ones

Anyone got a same problem/or knows how to tell them apart?

Small matter of ultimate block Athletico in between

It should show you on the City Tickets site. Look at "My Account", "Tickets", tick the boxes next to all the Southampton game tickets, then "Details" and it should show you the seat numbers allocated to each person.

At least it does for me and my son's tickets!

I agree let's mix it up a bit

 

[Carlos- the- jackal]

Not one of those fuckin duck eggs at Peps press conference asked about team news or injuries, useless cunts!

 

[pavelsrnicek]

The fact we’re on the BBC on Sunday gives me flash backs to 19/20. Played them off the park but couldn’t score. Hopefully we’re a little more clinical on Sunday.

I think we've been pretty dire lately, but underneath all the sub-par performances is one heck of a side busting to get out. I think we are going to be spurred on by the shit show at Palace and, playing as we can do, give them a right good shafting. 5-0 City.

Cheers mate - fuck - it should have been obvious to me to do that. I will know for the future

Mike Dipper Dean will be doing his celebrity ref live on the BBC for us.

So lucky.

Bernardo Silva pictured having a meal in Paris today. Wonder if a few players were given time off maybe...Either that or he's gone away for a kinky few nights away!

 

[David Silva #21]

We need to rotate the squad and use a new tactic. Obviously, recent games demonstrated serious issues in our line-up and Pep's tactics.

Ederson
Cancelo Stones Laporte Zina
Fernandinho
Bernie Gundo
Raz Foden Jesus

2-0 city

 

[hertsblue]

Dipper Dean in charge and Marriner on Var

With Snorky?

 

[stan bowles]

Let's see Sterling and Gundogan starting and no Foden in the false 9.

And there was me thinking shooting practise would be top of the agenda ;-)
However if dirty sew works nice one Pep :-)

Dire! Bloody hell, Bury at home and Stockport away was dire.
We‘ve just recently beaten our local rivals and taken the piss whilst doing so and you say we’ve been dire!

The entitlement of some supporters on this forum is beyond staggering, but you take the biscuit mate.
