    Unfortunately it’s the score that counts.

    I'm going for goals and sticking with the players who performed last week.

    McCarthy
    Cedric Vestergaard Hoedt Bert
    Hojb Lemina
    Redmond Ings Elyounoussi
    Gabbi

    2-3 Saints

    I know one thing for sure, our first team absolutely does not pick itself and MH is going to earn his keep this season.

    I would go with this side against Everton.


    McCarthy
    Stephens Vestergaard Hoedt Bert
    Romeu Lemina
    Jwp Armstrong Ings
    Gabbi


    JWP plus Vestergaard equals goals....

    There must be real pressure on managers to play new players....not just to justify their purchase...but to have a chance of seeing how they fit into the side. This leaves players who might have got game time previously as onlookers...because chances become fewer if the new players bed in. Why would a manager change things even if the player on the bench is as good as the player on the field...injury remains their only chance.

    The deflection didn't annoy me half as much as the ref first ignoring the blatant foul on Reds, then allowing Everton to take the incorrect decision free kick 15 yds from where it supposedly happened. Its still annoys me now! <grr>

    However, if we had got those two extra points, I think we would have lost to the swans (as would have played not to lose), which would have put them 1 point ahead and we would be talking about playing in the Championship this year. And how really pissed off would we be to yet relegated by the last kick of the ball against City...

    Marty, I think you need to recalibrate the DeLorian because you have found a glitch!

    I know we won't see it but this is my favourite starting XI with everybody fit (I quite like a 4-4-2)

    Alex
    Cedric Vestergaard Hoedt Bertie
    JWP Pierre Armstrong Mo El
    Ings Gabbi

    Subs Gunn Stephens (for versatility) Maya/Bednarek Lemina Redmond Long Chaz

    It's got energy, creativity and a good balance and two good finishers and i'm not really a fan of the modern CDM sitting in front of the back four.
