They were obviously saving themselves for this one in yesterday's game.

Might be worth Still listening to Adam and Jo in this week’s Solent pod.

I found myself agreeing with everything Jo said:
1. We need a forward who is happy to put himself about and make his presence felt by defenders, at the moment no one is doing that simple job of bossing the opposition 18 yard box or feeding off through balls into the box
2. Still has to learn quickly to lead as well as manage. Don’t worry about dropping players that under perform, throwing hair dryers around the changing room when angry but be able to put an arm around the player who needs reassuring.

The team looks unsure of their individual roles and maybe don’t understand what they are being told?

Want to see wholesale changes at the back. No one expects a win at Anfield so might as well try something different & who knows, if it works there then it’ll work anywhere (right?!)

McCarthy,
Fraser, Wood, Quarshie, Manning
Charles, Jander,
Fellows, Azaz, Robinson,
Archer

I know some will say no to Fraser at RB but he’s been our best player so we need to keep him in the team somehow & I think he is versatile enough to play out & out RB. We really need to make room for J Rob / Scienza to offer more in attack too and let’s face it he can’t be any worse than Roerslev has been the past 2 games!

Glad I'm not going to this one. Expect us to give a good account of ourselves but ultimately succumb to a 3-1 defeat to Liverpool's kids.
 
Can see it being similar to the cup game a couple of years ago. We will start well but ultimately their u18s are better than us so we’ll lose comfortably
 
Put our U18's out then , I am sure Harry G could get us a goal or three? Put George in goal, another Long might do something special!
 
Us to win 1-0 off some random liverpool ass cheek in the 92 minute to make a mockery of the papers crowing over "slot time".
 
Slot's Second String School Still's Sad Saints

I'm not very confident,
Have to admit
Hoping for magic
But expecting ****

We'll pass it around for
Some pointless possession
And get schooled by some kids
like a training session

We're defensively weak,
Our attack pretty toothless
We'll be easy pickings
For a team that is ruthless

I'll say 3 or 4 nil
By the end of the game
An hour and a half
Of frustration and pain

A salute to you travellers,
Sat in the stands
Still singing your songs
And clapping your hands

Self inflicted it might be
A choice that you make
If I pray for a win though
It is for your sake

Let's hope for a hero
Downs, Archer, Armstrong
I know who we need though
But Shane Long is long gone

Still still might surprise us
With tactical nouse
And pull off an upset
That upsets the Scouse

But I doubt it of course
I'm a cynical soul
My glass is half full
And my luck's in a hole

So I'll sit there on Tuesday
Watching a stream
Of Saints getting battered
Living the dream.


*Here's Shane just when we needed him
