Southampton (A) Pre Match Thread

[SebastianBlue]

I have don't really know, as I posted Pep will have thought it through and had his reason, he'll look at the bigger picture of player morale for next season.
He made a few decisions last night that seemed to be about rewarding squad players, some that may not be here next season like Zinchenko, could Bravo be one of them? I dont think he will but he could be.

Fair enough. I agree Pep had reasons (even, perhaps, to highlight the issues with Bravo to other decision makers... maybe even to Bravo himself), I just think it was harsh on Eddie. Not sure anything will change my mind there.

I actually have no problem with the other selections, by the way.

A lot of ifs buts and maybes. Equally, Eddie could have played and had a bigger mare conceding two.

Its all water under the bridge and Pep will have had his reasons to pick Bravo

Of course, but all we can do on here is analyse, debate, and predict. And I do not think it is unreasonable to predict that Eddie would likely have handled the various keeping situations better and, therefore, would likely be level with De Gea on 17 cleansheets today, giving him a chance at taking the golden glove out right.

But, as you said, it is water under the bridge now.

Full strength, a chance to further the history of this season. If we get the win then I think I'll be glad of the draw to Huddersfield, a round 100 points seems more satisfying than 102.

Foden/Diaz to get game time from the bench for their medals.

It was all part of Pep's masterplan.

The rags playing for a draw means we can break the largest margin of victory record now as well.

Perhaps Ederson just isnt that bothered about the award? Happy to let his mate have a game?

 

[MarsLlama]

Agree with Diaz thought he looked dangerous when he came on last night......has Jésus lost his way a bit?

Yeah, not scored for a whole two games. I reckon we need to sell him.

In Rome at the weekend, 10 year anniversary with the missus.

Always won the league when I have been away for the final game.

I can’t help thinking this is a sign for the centurions!!

100 points here we come!

You mean the biggest difference between 1st place and Runners Up Trophy winners.

Except we have already won...

We’re doomed, doomed I tell you!
