    What sort of substitution is that?!

    Very odd with Cedric suffering. I hope we are not hanging on again :s

    Very odd substitution if Pellegrino doesn't want the side to just sit back.

    In the long history of strange substitutions, that is verging on the strangest.

    Might work out but worried we'll drop back too much and invite pressure.

    There is a train of thought taht you should always do what you think the opposition least wants you to do.


    Yoshida for Boufal is not that

    Pellegrinos excuse for dislocating his shoulders is obviously a lie.

    I don’t think he’s ever told a team to push up.

    Sounds like we are. Need to bring JWP on to remind everyone where the Watford goal is.

    Just about to post that Dave already saying we've gone from playing in their half to ours.

    That sounded close though.

    Have we gone to three at the back with Yoshida on?

    You can just imagine the situation:

    2-1 down in injury time, Saints get a corner.
    The GK is waved forwards, before Pellegrino disclocates his shoulder frantically waving the other 9 players to get back and guard defensively against a counter attack.

    Now that makes sense with Watford going with a 4-4-2. However I dont think Boufal is the player we should be taking off!
