    Zero excuses if we have a bad day today. That must be just about our strongest team, although I feel a bit sorry for Che.

    10 of that 11 were pretty obvious, once we knew the injuries were cleared.

    Tella, ahead of Redmond and Che, for the 11th spot is fine by me.

    Anyone scoring at present would be magical for me. We 'should' get this but it's a Saints match we're talking about, so I just underline my major wishes for this game and they are, a point, no more injuries, no red cards.

    And good. Tella's not afraid of running at the defence. Minamino will be up front with Ings I would think. Yeah, I like it.

    It should be. But, sadly, I'm not sure it is.

    Che and Redmond are just so far off it right now. (And Tella looked good vs Leeds.)

    Playing Takumi up front might just be the change that we need, we know that he won't bottle it if he gets a good chance to score.

    The balance should be restored with KWP back, I expect plenty of diagonal passes to him from Big Vester.

    So by my reckoning, Sheff Utd are down to their 6th, 7th and 8th choice CBs.

    Right, apart from maybe Romeu in for Diallo, that is the XI I would have gone for if we had no injuries... so no moaning from me today!!

    Very strong line up, come on Saints!!

    It is looking promising.

    I do like Che, but he has been pretty consistently poor in recent appearances so I’m not sure he can have any complaints.

    I imagine he will bounce back eventually.

    And even that is a very strong maybe. Nothing against Romeu (who has been excellent), but Diallo has looked equally as good.

    An on form Che, or a fit Theo, get in ahead of Tella for me. But that's somewhat nitpicking.
