Article: Talk Sport - Sunday Supplement | Football Southampton

ipswich took a couple of hammerings early on but think they are quite capeable of putting a run together.

Hull have every chance if they get scoring.

i do have a bit of a concern for southampton. we have one of the best pitches at st marys in the entire league - you could play snooker on it.

This suits our passing game and is a factor to why we have won every single home game we have played since january 29th. come the winter and churned up pitches away from home then we could struggle to get into our rythem.

 

Your last sentence was what we said about pitches in League 1..surely the pitches are better in the Championship. Hope we don't get games cancelled like last winter. Nigel did remark after the Derby game that the grass was longer than we like...we may find this at other games. The opposition don't have to provide a pitch to suit us.

 

Teams that haven't surprised me ... Middlesborough - always had them down to win it. Those pesky Saints keeping them off the top.....

 

Hang on a minute and it'll come......

..... and the three best midfielders outside the prem????????

 

Oops

 

I think he means,

"I think we will lose against Brum. Watford and Millwall while not maintaining a clean sheet because Kaspers **** and Mills cant control himself"

 

You watch, we'll start scoring then start to ship them in at the other end.

Defence is settled & Basso has helped with this. Just hope all of them stay fit throughout the season.

With Koren in the centre we have an effective midfield. I'd take Pusic out and put Stewart out wide anyday. If Pearson wanted to sure it up even more he could even play Waggy or Fryatt up on his own with Roko just in behind him. Leaving an extra space for another midfielder. Just a suggestion as i know most got sick of Brownies 4-5-1 style.

Strikers are baffling me. I dunno how they get into the decent positions and have as many chances they get and still not score. We can't hit a cow's arse with a banjo at the minute.

 

Clayton and 2 others I can't think of.

 

Lallana without a doubt in the top 3

 

James Harper.

 

Xavi, Iniesta, Messi.

 

I see what you did there

 

Kasper played brilliant and has been quality for us - because he was sh*te for you doesn't mean that he is no good.

Take Hobbs for example - was woeful for us last season but is a completely different player now he has moved to Hull and is realising his potential.

As for Mills, he got sent off for overreacting when previously he has be as solid as a rock - is basically Kisnorbo except when he attempts to pass a ball more then 10 yards, it actually reaches the person.

 

And you paid how many millions for him? hes been sent off how many times already? Tom Lees is better than Mills, Lonergans better than Kasper, Leeds are better than Leicester, everyones laughing at you

 

One more mediocre performance from Leicester and we're at the 12 game mark - the point where I promised to go on their board and make cheap shots because Leeds are doing better having spent a fraction of the money and having sold them a dodgy keeper who they still think is the best thing since sliced bread. The fact that Leicester are so very far from the playoffs and not looking like getting there any time soon is just icing on the cake.

 

I'd like to know what the gay chants are in reference to...

 

Well I figured that much, but I'm not fully understanding what gays have to do with Brighton!
