Personally speaking I would drop Guly , he has been awful in the last few away games and I can't help but feel this game will be to much for him and he will go missing. Would go with a 451 with a midfield of De Ridder , Cork ,Hammond ,Morgan and Lallana which can very quickly become 433 when we are attacking to support Rickie. Quite frankly I think it is going to be an awful game and would take a draw right here and now. Cant say I am looking forward to my trip to Fratton but having lived in the city for 8 years and taken a lot of stick in the past I cant take the chance of not being present should Saints win.
No Hammond ???????????????????????????
What??Guly was immense against Blackpool,he was our best player.Yes,he will probably go missing because of his dreadful tackling ability but then again he could unlock a door with a bit of skill and flair and could ultimately win us the game.Personally speaking I would drop Guly , he has been awful in the last few away games and I can't help but feel this game will be to much for him and he will go missing.

Yeah,you're right!I made a mistake...oopswhy have you put chaplow on the left, lallana plays there.
Another point is that de ridder is good but is just not the finish article yet.
Chaplow has just tweeted saying today was his first day back in training, and really just saying it'll be touch and go up to kick off...
