    03 Taylor. 24 Cork (yellow card). 08 Shelvey.

    Currently 7th in the Premier League with 9 Points

    Played 6 Won 2. Drawn 3. Lost 1 For 7 Against 5 GD 2



    No injury problems reported although Ayew suffered a bloody nose in the Everton game.


    Played in League Cup on Tuesday 22nd September v Hull and lost 0 - 1.

    Team: -

    13 Nordfeldt. 02 Amat (Yellow card). 14 Tabanou (Naughton - 72).

    27 Bartley. 22 Rangel. 07 Britton. 23 Sigurdsson. 15 Routledge.

    04 Ki Sung-yueng. 21 Grimes (Shelvey - 57' ). 17 Éder (Gomis - 64’)


    Substitutes: 08 Shelvey. 18 Gomis. 20 Montero. 24 Cork. 25 Tremmel.

    26 Naughton. 33 Fernandez.



    After last years loss, Jonjo Shelvey's stunning 25-yard strike fired Swansea City to a hard-fought Premier League victory, their first win in Southampton for 62 years, we hope to redress the balance. Ryan Bertrand picked up a red card in that game, needs to be careful if he is picked.



    After winning the League Cup game 6 - 0 the mood should be somewhat better.

    A quick correction to the heading, more haste less speed!

    After a good start to the season we have stuttered since the international break, not scoring a goal in our last three matches. The Saints have had a poorer start than last season so this match is a bit of a strange one. I'm going for a 0-0 draw!

    The Swans currently lie in 7th position with the Saints in 16th - but a 2-0 win for Southampton will see you climb above us!

    Pgf - you might have caught us at the right time as our forwards are a little goal shy!

    Wrong play, but a beautiful speech!
    And hold their manhoods cheap whiles any speaks
    That fought with us upon Saint Crispin's day.
