    I honestly think we can get a good win here.

    3-0 Saints my prediction, Hooiveld partnering Yoshida with Clyne back from injury and S.Davis dropped to the bench (sorry!)

    Also expect a Lambert-JRod partnership up front with Ramirez or Guly on the left

    Also, for any of you folks heading to Villa Park, no alcohol served in the away end so if you want a drink make sure to grab it beforehand!

    Saints manager Nigel Adkins has confirmed that Adam Lallana and Jose Fonte will miss this weekend's trip to Aston Villa.
    The pair are both suffering from knee injuries and are expected to each be sidelined for a few weeks.
    Adkins would not go beyond discussing their availability for the trip to Villa Park on Saturday, but he did admit they would both miss the showdown with Saints' relegation rivals.
    Gaston Ramirez is expected to return, having sat out the 5-1 FA Cupthird round defeat to Chelsea last weekend with a dead leg, while right-back Nathaniel Clyne should also be ready to make his comeback from a knee problem.

    I wonder why Nige has given information on the team a couple days before the match. That strike anyone else as unusual?

    Considering how guarded NA has been with Adams knee injury this last month, I wonder if you would care to elaborate on that very short answer.

    Well, in every prematch press conference since Adam's injury, he is asked about the injury and each time he has said that Adam is out of the next match. So he hasn't said anything unusual.

    A couple weeks ago he got slated for being so vague. Even Le Tiss said he thought he came across as really cringe worthy. I thought that was unfair because he was obviously just keeping his cards close to his chest. I wonder if thats why he now being open about it. Perhaps that are both long term injuries & he can't be bothered with the cat & mouse.
    I prefered the cloak & dagger, at least I could live in hope.
