    Look at the injuries we have in comparison to them. Seelt on the bench I reckon

    Said when thread was posted probably a narrow defeat and maybe still is.

    They have lost Tella now as well so they are a bit weaker, I’m gonna go on fence and say not a clue, but if we lose to these there’s no panic.

    Stewart not our problem any more, Bennette is fit, Roberts 1 game away, Mayenda not far away

    Ticket sales I mean and not a crystal ball guess.

    Thankyou RTB.
    It’s not like we’ve lost a main goal scorer to a late injury , so LND absence of no concern - but I fear we just won’t quite have enough . We’ll do a good show but Southampton will shade it from Premiership experience of snatching and saving a lead

    Heard they are quite weak aerially at the back. Would be mint to see Hemir score and build his confidence as he is about to meet his competition

    Tough game today. They're the title favourites in my view, they have an excellent depth to their squad with options in all positions. I'm not sure we have the firepower that we need to win this today, but a robust defensive display might see us get something.

    It'll be nice to have some more attacking options next week.

    Nice that we can still play Ekwah and Neil despite selling them yesterday….

    Southampton’s squad is ridiculous at this level. Easily the best in the division in my opinion and far stronger than anything in the league last year too.

    Huge huge huge game for Ba today. With Aouchiche, Rusyn and Mayenda coming in, it feels like he needs a performance otherwise he might not get another start for a long long time.

    I've got a sneaky feeling we're gonna surprise a few today. I'm expecting some good performances. Nowt like a sudden influx of competition to motivate the weary soul.
