Match Day Thread Southampton FC v Sunderland AFC – Saturday 9th March 2024 - KO 15:00

They’d both be on the bench for me. It’s about time Ekwah was dropped.

 

All I want is one team selection, one day, to not wind me up

 

Burstow yet again getting the nod over Rusyn. Adil benched again. I really give up with this season, our management decisions have been absolutely shocking

 

Supporting the wrong team then mate...

 

4-0 Southampton. Won't get close to them.

 

Can only assume Aouchiche isn’t seen as somebody who can be trusted out of possession, which might well be the focus today.

 

I've said, from day one, I'd start him in every game ...

... but I'll be hoping Burstow gets a hat trick.

Mowbray would've picked this side so I can't load too much blame on Dodds tbh.

 

They simply cannot start games together, it has to be 1 or the other

Jobe did enough to start for me but also wouldnt have been against styles being in there with rigg n neil

 

Some pathetic calls in that team mind

 

I've got my concerns about the supply into Burstow from Ba and Mundle. Can't see either of them giving up on a chance to shoot, rather than pass it.

However, it does look a selection that has more pace than the Leicester match. I hope the game plan comes off.

Ha'way the lads!

 

It’s a team selection set up to be good off the ball rather than on it. I assume.

 

Good player Styles

 

Wow burstow ffs.

 

I've no idea why Chelsea won't sell him, there's no reason for him to be so ineffective.

 

The positive at least is he’s rested / dropped Ekwah finally. And that Rigg is retained.

As somebody said above, I’d rather we played Jobe than Ekwah at the moment

 

Yeah
Why Burstow he’s not ours and usless
We have our own players just as usless but there ours and there will not get better sitting on the bench
Keep the loans out the starting 11 theve proved there no good

 

Desperate for a CDM all season
Finally sign one.
Play him left wing back
Then right wing
Then drop him

Brilliant

 

Look at the bench. It’s a poor squad. Injuries haven’t helped like.

 

I've called for Jobe to be rested but fair dos, he looked a lot better playing deeper on Tuesday

 

At least Jobe will be playing deeper I assume. Putting all the creative burden on a 16 y/o is just baffling. Continuing the theme of some players getting dropped for playing well and some players getting rewarded for doing **** all.
