I’ve got a good feeling, we’re going to smash em. Using Lawro logic we’re overdue a good win, 4-0 saints.
Really looking forward to this game. Bazunu; KWP, ABK, Salisu, Djenepo; JWP, Diallo, Aribo; Stuey, Che, Arma. Subs; Macca, Caleta-Car, Lyanco, Perraud, AMN, Ely, Mara, Edozie, Walcott. Perraud drops out due to fitness caution and don't want to irritate his previous injury. Diallo in for the injured Lavia ( do wonder whether he will play JWP here tho, seems to be the most disciplined. Stuey comes in to rest Ely.
So do we think any of our new recruits play on Saturday? I can see Edozie getting on the field for Adam at some point, depending on where we are in the game.
Edozie and AMN have the best chances I think. I'm assuming DCC needs a work permit and won't arrive in time for tomorrow.
Wouldn't break up the ABK/Sally partnership right now, even if he is available. Nice to have the option further down the line if there's a dip in form though.
If we want to keep the same formation that started the Chelsea game then I'd think that AMN has a good chance of starting alongside either Diallo with JWP in front or alongside JWP with Aribo in front. I'd assume that Edozie is the next most likely to see some action. It may be that we decide they need more than a day to settle in with the team and in training before throwing them in the deep end though.
Larios may get a sneaky start. Perraud still didn't look fit to me on Tuesday yet he was still preferred to using Djenepo again.
Djenepo hasn't let us down in fact he's grown into that position so if Perraud isn't fully fit it's Moussa for me.
I'm not going to be in the Southampton region and I'll have no access to TV for this game. Is there a reliable way to use my phone to receive commentary? One that I can understand (no patching into the nuckear submarine comms net using a rehacked broadband router, please). Thanks, Vin
If you have a reasonable 4G signal just go to the official Saints site and you’ll get the Solent commentary. If you’re not registered on the site already, do it today, it’s free I believe.
Opportunity for Diallo to impress. I would have him sit deep in Lavia's absence with JWP and Aribo/AMN/Stuey ahead.
Gutting, he had started so well and will have to get going all over again. Thankfully we have the international break so he it will only be 4 weeks worth of games he misses. JWP, Diallo and AMN looks a bit light weight but hopefully either of the latter step up and grab the opportunity.
