Three points against the Spuds

Three out of three and it would be a fantastic Saturday!

Correct.

COYI!

Credit where credit is due, that was a great substitution by their manager. It created a window of opportunity as our defence and midfield tried to adjust to their set up and alas couldn7t quite get it right in time to stop Lukaku (terrific player) from scoring in that window. Up until then, nil ni...

Absolute class today - bossed Lalana

I assume you are kidding. Hes much better all round. Technique, kicking, confidence, dominates the area, personality. Great keeper.

Agree. They woz robbed.

The fact people are suggesting a failing academy coach (Carr) and a failed rogue ex player (Di Canio) shows how limited our obvious options are. Look at how Citeh recruited someone ypu'd never heard of but who has been brilliant.

It doesnt. It says hes had one full training session and wont be rushed back.

Top defender but his distribution is unimpressive - surely Wenger would want someone who can pass?

Only posting to keep this on the front page.
Keep feeling it everyone.

Surely we have a reputation of being an amusing bunch of supporters (see Jonjo Shelvey chants) who don't have to resort to anti-semitism? Nothing to do with over-sanitised nature of football but more specifically correct behaviour and incorrect imo of course :think: Agree. Completely. Today lets sh...

Left feeling optimistic. Good all round performance despite two stupid fouls. Petric looks excellent and signs of life from Vaz Te. But above all Ravel. Silky skills, vision and a shot on him. It's going to be tough but we'll be ok. Funniest thing is all the boll*cks about martinez' sophisticated po...

Considering Osvaldo and Lovern cost more than our eleven that finished the match, it was a good result. Got what we came for, poor wasn't amazing but we got the result, add in the players we were missing we might of done more but a good day at the office points wise. Quite right. And in other posit...

Well, what's happened to the dreadful weather predicted for today? Weatherman said last night it was gonna blow a howling gale and it was gonna ****ing piss with rain. ****. As I look out, here in Crawley, which is only about an hour from Southampton by road, it is bright sunshine and not a cloud i...

Realistically, 2-1 to them. Reckon they will go comfortably ahead if we sit back and we'll end up chasing it at the end.

As much as I love JOB - I think the fact that he is right footed, and tends to play the ball inside to Diame/Noble, it really restricts us from getting the best out of Jarvis. agree big time. funnily enough Joey does plough forward on occasion and has even scored goals by getting into the box but h...

Doesn't look like Petric will figure on Sunday according to BFS's press conference today:

'when Mladen gets fit he'll add to our squad."

Just a thought, but if we think Vaz Te is not up for it, how about playing the RAT at left half with Jarvis on the right?

It'll be the obvious won't it?
Jussi
Demel Collins Reid Joey
Vaz Te Diame Noble Jarvis
Nolan Maiga

With Petric and Ravel to come off the bench

That was a realty check. Told us a lot of things we sort of knew. 1. maiga is not a lone striker 2. Nolan is not a striker 3. We are short of midfield pace 4. Jarvis is pretty predictable 5. Morrison is a good prospect 6. We can't play from the back 7. We lack creativity 8. We are no better than a v...

I honestly cannot see us getting, Quag, Cardozo, Ba, Lukaku or anyone of that calibre as they will know that Sam will play AC as his lone striker when fit. Cant see any of them fancying playing 2nd fiddle and cant see us splashing out a great deal on a back up. Shoot me down if u want, but I think ...
