    Pelle has been playing injured for at least a month. It's why I have tried not to get annoyed when he has had a bad game. Apparently he has been having injections in his knee to be able to play.

    Graziano has been having injections in his knee to play for a while now. So not entirely surprising that he's broken down and had to pull out.

    EDIT: Beaten to it by Beefy.

    6 days until we can sign someone.

    Or we could turn into a fast passy-countery team.

    Not sure which of those is more likely.

    I'm happy to see Long in the side over Pelle anyway. Particularly if it's a 442 diamond, not a 4231. If it's 4231 then Tadic should be in the side. If it's a diamond I can understand Tadic being left out. We'll see. The big worry is Martina. He could easily be the difference between us losing and winning. This could be like Manchester United at home all over again. But with Martina instead of Yoshida. Let's hope Martina can handle the pressure. Let's also hope Stekelenburg is awake tonight as well considering Gazzaniga has been very harshly dropped..

    Just seen that Soares has an injury.

    Pelle is obviously injured. But it will be interesting to see what happens if we're trailing after an hour.

    I meant as in why Ramirez is on the bench. We are starting to scrape the bottom of the barrel.

    What have our youngsters got to do to at least get on the bench?

    I think we are putting out the strongest team for the next two games, appreciate the injuries but perhaps they believe Arsenal are likely to be too strong in any case...

    Man BT commentry is ****.

    Ian Wright: " I feel they are playing Long instead of Pelle because he will play differently. Pelle hasn't done much anyways"

    McManaman: " Pelle is injured"

    Wright: " Oh is he?"

    Humphrey: Laughs. " What has happened to Southampton they are only 4 points of relegation.

    Wright: " Don't know"

    Ergh Savage and Hoddle commentating!

    Shame I can't go to the game, may have to mute this.

    Ramirez can't be any worse than the rest at the moment. Deserves his chance sometime!
