Match Day Thread Southampton v Chelsea Saturday 20/02/21, 12:30 pm, BT Sport

Are we totally ruling out Ramsay for this weekend? Yeah, he had a horror first half against United, but then didn't everyone? I thought he did okay second half.

 

I think Ralph just prefers Stephens as RB backup, which wasn't an option against Man U due to low CB cover.

 

Stole this of Twitter, worth trying?

 

It’s the hope that tortures you then
... and keeps you staying alive

Whether you’re a brother or whether you’re a mother

 

We will probably lose anyway so if we were to try out something new it isnt a huge risk. I wouldn't necessarily go for that exact line up but the idea of 3 CBs is interesting

 

Hope gives us a Saturday match fever.

 

And a constant feeling of deja vu!

 

I’m trying to help, guys, honestly. I’ve drafted Werner into my fantasy team ....... guess I could make him captain just to totally screw over his chances of having a good game .....

 

So we have picked up another injury to an unnamed player. Wonderful...

If it's Bertrand, JWP, Romeu or Ings we are screwed.

 

Giroud would have been better!

 

Where have you got that from?

 

Link is to the summary video of Ralphs pre match conference on Facebook. The interviewer asked about any new injuries and he said "We have a few other injuries/issues, but I don't want to speak about them now. Definitely a few more or one more player is out for the weekend but we don't know it now."

Back 3/5 might happen then: https://www.dailyecho.co.uk/sport/19101927.amp/?__twitter_impression=true

 

Damn! Didn’t think of him ......

 

Don’t worry Dave, I’ve put Giroud down as away scorer in the Prediction League, which is almost always the kiss of death.

 

Lawro says 0 - 2 to Chelsea, no surprise there.

 

Reasonable prediction tbf

 

Sounds very vague. Wonder if its a covid case and we're waiting for more tests to come back?

 

Very possible! Hadn't really thought about that, but it's possible for sure. Just what we need...
