I’ve only just seen the highlights of the Swansea game. We looked very good, created so many chances. It was a miracle that they kept a clean sheet. With that in mind (and also bearing in mind that I predicted the swansea score correctly), I am predicting a 3-1 win for Saints against West Ham. People should listen to me because I know lots about football and have a 100% score prediction record this season.

So, to summarise: 3-1 Saints. I can try and name scorers if you wish, for your betting purposes, I but I can’t guarantee 100% accuracy with this.

Not feeling confident about this one at all, a misfiring attack, a goal shy midfield and an ex with a point to prove leads to a goalless Saints (yet again).

They will sneak a jammy goal from a free kick or something, it will whizz by Forster at a comfortable save level but he will be too slow and watch it bulge the onion bag.

1-0 to the Hammers

West Ham to score in 2nd minute

We have 30 shots

Fonte to score 2 own goals in the 89th and 93rd minute (assuming he plays)

Otherwise the above but goals from Gabiadini and Redmond

We are doomed I tell you doomed

Lawrence has predicted a 2-1 Saints win.

I on the other hand am going for another clean sheety thing from saints and West Ham to fold after Fonte gets sent off in the 12 minute for hauling down Gabbiadini as the last man.

We score the penafy taken by JWP and then go on to put another 6. Past them

Saints Hammer the Hammers is the Sunday papers headlines.

In this case, I cannot argue with the man. 2-2.

Win this and the draw against Swansea is slightly less disappointing. 4 points from the first 2 games would be a decent start.

I like a good Cedric tweet, he’s obviously been on a graphic design course

JWP DAVIS REDMOND

GABBIADINI

I would almost be tempted to have Gabbi in behind Austin in the middle of that 3 with a license for all 3 of them to swap around, but i’m not sure he’s the type to track back too much and West Ham’s defence is appallingly slow so Austin wouldn’t cause them too many problems in that respect.

I don’t really care where they all run around, I’d just like one of them to pick up the effing banjo and smack the friesian on the arse.
