If anyone has had a change of circumstance and can't go etc etc, there's a German girl who has recently started supporting Saints this year and is desperate to go. Let me know!
Should she get a ticket, she'll have an outside chance of getting to see Podolski. You should let her know that her chances of seeing Ozil or Mertesacker are non-existent though.
Last season I would have been worried to face Podolski, not so much now. Mertesacker is welcome to play in defence on Tuesday.
Not sure. If we play Pelle, I think I'd rather Arsene started a kid or two at CB, for Pelle to bully - particularly in the air.
