Southampton (A) | Pre-Match Thread

[ancoats]

we hold our breath and wait and see ?? not the line up we wanted and rodri and gundogan still holding the middle of the park ? but silva torres foden all start and maybe KDB will be as his very best

You’d rather have Torres up top than Jesus?

At least he scores. Unlike Jesus who just runs around

The usual suspects sullying the pre-match thread with bile. Shame.

Great team and nice to see Torres starting. Interesting that Nmecha has been promoted which suggests that he must have excelled in training. I am hoping that Bernardo has a pearler as I really miss him. If not, PF on 60 is probable. I had started PF for BS and Gabby for Raz but the rest are all as I chose.

Same setup different players. Not expecting anything different from recent games. Not been so unconfident of a result in ages, and no disrespect but were playing Southampton.

What did Pep say about them?

With Foden and Mendy we couldn’t control the left side of the pitch. Sums up our whole situation st the moment.

 

[Exeter Blue I am here]

So,no proper focal point,no wingers,and the same old cutting inside and playing around the box shite.

About sums it up

Do you ever post anything positive? It's the season of goodwill. To all men. Yes, even to Nmecha. Try it, you might be surprised.

He just needs a cuddle.

I’ve sent you a pm.

Thanks and cheers

I think Pep is losing the plot. It's a must win game and he starts with Rodri treacle toesTrotter with fuckin' spud Gun. And FFS, no Foden. WTF : /

Gundog isn’t the issue, he’s been one of our best players recently. Rodri has had a couple of shockers recently, so he needs to up his game big style today. He’s shown he’s capable of it in the past

Good lineup that and great to see Ferran start. We need Bernardo to have a good one today with bags of energy to counter their midfield. Hopeful we can break out of our poor finishing rut so I'm going for a win 4-1.
