Southampton v City pre-match thread

[barryo]

My local has an issue with the Stella pump so there's no Stella. Now there's something to flap about!!

This is a worry.

Can you keep us updated throughout the match please or I won't be able to focus on the game.

Cheers.

 

[Norbiton]

careful. the blue tinted squad are watching this thread.

Aren't we all blue tinted?

 

[super_city_si]

I'd be very surprised if there's not at lest 5 goals in this. Perm any score from that.

Bravo ffs what a joke

 

[Dave Ewing's Back 'eader]

We haven't kicked off and I've employed the mute button. Why is Gerrar' down there? BT are as bad as Sky ever were!

 

[Kazzydeyna]

Big game today. Huge. With enormous consequences for top four.

Win and we take a gigantic stride to qualifying next season.

Lose or draw and it becomes a much harder task.

It's very sad that we are at this stage of the season worrying about top four but we are where we are. Top four is essential. Without it we would be well within our rights to change manager in the summer.

Big game for the manager today. I hope afterwards he is so so proud of the changes he has made today.

Bravo........ why, just why?? Otamendi is a risk too. Kompany we have to play to guage his fitness. De Bruyne doesn't work hard enough for me especially away from home. Oh well Pep's choice we will see.

 

[Bill]

Looking at that line up, it seems he's going all out for the FA Cup. No Sterling, Stones or Caballero. I'd nearly take the draw right now, particularly with Bravo in goal.

agreed and to be fair I see where he is coming from. with our remaining fixtures we should just about make top 4, even with bravo in net. top 3 though, which I think is vital will have gone.

 

[Vienna_70]

Here we go again.

The old myth that our defence is shocking.

 

[Phil1]

A team picked to win the game ahead with players who are 100% fit and available. Seems the way forward to me. But then I'm not as savvy when it comes to the game as some of our posters..

Pmsl....make or break for Pep eh?

Christ this place at times!

 

[citytill1die84]

Come on CITY 3pts no less

 

[01cravend]

Bravo is going to make a save today

 

[PragueBlue]

Serious?

Yes. He isn't in form but has been a very good keeper (and more highly rated than Caballero by most) for many years.

 

[domalino]

I wish you'd give up.

It's just wumming at this point.

 

[cleavers]

Why is Gerrar' down there?

Isn't it the anniversary of his slip today ? Maybe they wanted to remind him.

I Prefer you in the Article 50 thread :-)

I find it amazing that a coach from any other Prem club even if he just takes the ground staff 2nd 11 should be allowed to pundit, they can't possibly be objective

it is when bravo's in goal..
