Yes you did! That was me indeed... I sent in to get Blackmore to wish Barry Sanchez a happy birthday, and to enjoy the game but he's probably having a moan anyway.

I don't think it will be a disaster if we have to play a right footed player there. An 80 yard sprint and cross sounds great but we are a bit more short pass and movey now. Btw last goal from full back was Fox v Arsenal away, was it not?
I've seen him play at RB, CB and LB. I think he's definitely good enough to fill in at either full-back spot except against top players or real speedsters where he'd have some trouble, but he wouldn't offer anything going forwards.
Pochettino: "I have mixed feelings. We still have a week to make adjustments to how we want to play."
Adam Blackmore: "Mauricio Pochettino just confirmed that Luke Shaw has a knee injury and there may be a ligament problem"
Adam Blackmore ‏@bigadamsport 30s #saintsfc boss Mauricio Pochettino just confirmed that Luke Shaw has a knee injury and there may be a ligament problem I'm gonna go find somewhere to cry.
I've seen him play LB twice in the Champion's League, once against Benfica a few years ago and can't remember the other team.
Fair enough then - sadly if it is ligament damage, we might end up needing a more long term replacement than sticking Lovren out there.
Morgan Schneiderlin speaks to SaintsPlayer: http://www.player.saintsfc.co.uk/la...0/page/0/name/Schneiderlin:-We-all-feel-ready
Without doubt, think he's capable but would regard Lovren as no better than near emergency cover, certainly not ideal. If Shaw's crocked for a few months and the Holy Trinity do not believe Targett to be ready then we need someone in.
Adam Blackmore: "I'm told Luke Shaw will have a scan tomorrow on his injured knee - the feeling is that it's ligament damage but not bad"
