SOUTHAMPTON v Manchester United: Match Thread

****, if you're going with RLGB does that mean I'm going alone?

 

Hehe. For some weird reason you've been a target for all the abuse of late. Weird, eh? Let's see if they say it to your face on Sunday :s

 

Would be surprised if Guly starts tbh

 

If only people reacted with such hostility to real life disagreements.

Anyway, 4-0 to United. Let's not get carried away.

 

Some do. You generally find them in the Northam after a couple of beers.

 

Would be surprised if he's included at all.

 

Buttner played tonight for Man Utd U21 v Spurs U21. Looked competent, strong and skillful. Man U won 2-1.

 

Doubt any new signings will start. Think Lee for Guly as the only change from Wigan with Mayuka on the bench

 

We should play Lee and Mayuka pace scares even United!

 

As much as I've appreciated his play, we're reaching the beginning of the end for Guly. He's a solid squad player at this level, but not a standout, and if we're to play a 4-3-3 we need incisive play wide, and he's more the sort to move the margins. I'd be somewhat surprised if he featured in more than half our games this year, as a starter or a sub, barring a rash of injuries.

 

Nothing happening here.

 

As it was mentioned here is Oscar Gobern's famous 'tackle'. What must he have been thinking?

He'd have won a medal for that at the Games!

 

Just seen that supposedly Evans is back for them tomorrow. He's bound to be rusty so let's hope they start with him!

 

If Rodriguez and Mayuka start I'll be amazed if Rodriguez doesn't switch to the right side. Mayuka prefers the left side of the pitch when playing winger, striker or cf

 

I like the idea of Mayuka coming off of the bench, along with Ramirez if he signs. I don't want Rodriguez on the wing, Guly will be better because he will help us keep possession. Lee should also start this game and be given a chance!

Gazzaniga, Seaborne, Shaw, JWP, Mayuka, Sharp, Lee

Unless one of our new signings is domestic, I can't see the paperwork being sorted in time. Mayuka has only been here a few days and probably won't start. Lee is coming back to fitness and probably won't start either.

 

Hmm. 3-1 United. Sorry guys

We will score though! Mayuka assist for Rodriguez.

 

I've got it down as 3-1 United too.

 

Yeah a late double for united to win the game. Kagawa and RVP x2 with the goals. Jay rod with ours.
