Southampton (a) pre-match thread

[Marvin]

Absolute must win game this hopefully Kdb, David and and Walker all start.

I wouldn't mind City starting KDB and bringing him on for last half an hour. Sometimes in tight games bringing on a player who can instantly stretch a game with his passing can win a game.

KDB is so good we could even consider playing Mahrez or Bernardo in his midfield berth and playing KDB as a deep-lying striker with Sane and Sterling. David Silva used to play that position quite often for Spain, and I think KDB could do it. We're just going down the wings now, which is something, but not hurting teams centrally. KDB, Silva can hurt teams through the middle. We need to find a way of doing this.

Ederson
Stones Otamendi laporte
Walker gundog (assuming no ferd) sane
DeBruyne silva
Sterling aguero

3 at back, 2 up front - Southampton's game plan will be based on Palace and Leicester performances, so surprise them.

I think you can always tell after the first 10- 15 minutes how its going going to pan out.

Any old win will do to get the confience back,i can't believe we are the same team this year

With Mahrez not hitting anything like the form at leicester are we not playing him in his preferred position ? also if memory serves wasnt he deadly at free kicks? he doesnt seem to get a look in

We should have signed him 2 years ago. Everybody in the stadium knows what he's going to do before he does it.

 

[TINY]

3-2 Southampton
