    Long could have some success running the channels against their non existent full backs.

    Don't wanna risk Gabbi unless he's 100%.

    Personally i count anyone who started their last game and doesnt start the next one they are fit to as being dropped. He's only missed one game after all, and his last match wasn't even 2 weeks ago in a 3 - 1 victory. i'm sure he will feel dropped. Same goes for Romeu when he returns.

    It's tough situation on everyone and that's why i asked the question :)

    I would probably go with Hojbjerg and Davis. Mainly because Davis is our captain now and i don't like the idea of a Clasie - Davis midfield, i think we need Hoj in there for the height and physicality.

    Romeu is the single most player that cannot be dropped, i would even say more so than Virgil! But clasie and Hoj had agreat game, be harsh to drop them after 1 game! Personally why risk davis for this.

    M L predictions for Saints are far worse than for any other premiership side so we should win quite comfortably to continue that trend?

    BT, it says on the match section of the OS where a match is broadcast if you ever want to check.

    Going on Lawro's predictions this season he has Liverpool top, unbeaten with 21 wins, and Saints 18th.

    Balls, was hoping to get one more match before my subscription ends. Cancelled sky as at £87 a month just not worth it.

    I just love Mark Lawrenson's tenacity. He works on the basis that we are utter crap and relegation fodder and Liverpool are champions-in-waiting. He makes his predictions accordingly. He is so sure that he is right.

    I wonder if they let him out of his cell at the end of the season, or does he predict cricket scores with equal success?

    Let us fear the worst and hope for the best. We are going to get stuffed but we might just snatch a draw or even win it.

    I have to warn you, retirement is one long round of being surprised about the day! Enjoy the weekend, mate.
