Match Day Thread Southampton vs Arsenal FA Cup 4th Round 28/01/2017 KO 5:30PM

Me thinks someone has walked passed the first team notice board today???

 

I know what you mean but I don't entirely agree. Assuming we don't get relegated of course, we are probably unlikely to finish high enough to qualify for Europe, so is the league really that important? I would swap a decent position for a FA Cup final.

 

I think Sims, McQueen, Stephens and Reed have earned their chances, so it's not like if they play it'd just be for the sake of it. Being pragmatic maybe Reed could be slightly harshly ignored as not sure there's a lot of belief of him progressing much further and the midfield is vital. Lewis would be a stretch though I feel against a team like Arsenal, unless he's got more about him than I'm aware of.

Bertrand, Cedric, Romeu, Tadic and Redmond all started both of the last two and are very likely to be rested I reckon. Maybe Romeu stays in due to his iron man status and Redmond plays due to lack of offensive options.

 

I just worry about Romeu. An injury to him, VVD out and teams will cut through us.

 

I just don't worry. You should try it.

 

Well maybe worry is the wrong word, a lower level of concern maybe. Plenty of other things to worry about in life. For example, I have some yoghurts in my fridge...

 

Have we sgned Troy Tempest yet?

 

Sold out!!


Really looking forward to this tomorrow.

 

We're using him as a sub

 

I'm old enough to instantly find that funny.

 

No pressure on this game i feel, we are at home on a good run, i am expecting a good match.

Lewis;
Cedric Yoshida Stephens Mcqueen;
Davis hjojberg Clasie;
Sims Long Redmond

 

You obviously lost your impartiality here.

 

I really hope we don't play Lewis tomorrow.

 

I bought a ticket for me and my Dad for this the other day. His was printed off and they told me mine was on my membership. I suddenly realised I wasn't sure where I was sat, but haven't recieved an email from the club. Also on my purchase history it says 'printed'.

Should I be worried?

 

I have a ticket for the game but can't go because I've got a stupid wedding to go to. Anyone want a ticket?

 

Reckon there might be a lot of empty seats for these 2 home games

 

Bit of a shame if that's the case!

 

You resting Bertrand or is he injured. Or are you just simply rotating the squad.? Hjojberg seems to have lost a bit of form to me. Romeu strides through every game, so he'd be in there, first name on the sheet. BTW, what's up with McCarthy.? Have I completely forgotten a bad injury.?

 

Welbeck Giroud Walcott

Iwobi

Coquelin Ramsey

Gibbs Mustafi Per Bellerin

Ospina

Is what i would like to see with Cech,Koscielny,Ozil and Sanchez part of the bench.

Get going.
