The BIG Match (thread) :The mighty free scoring Saints (prefer demons) vs Raspy Sean's Clarets

Surely we now have to go 3 at the back?

Our only attacking threat comes when Bert & Cedric get forward (and then Cedric duffs the cross) but surely with them in more advanced positions they will have the chance to do those little lay-offs to (2 from) Boufal/Tadic/Redmond in an area where there could be SOME attacking threat.

Romeu is half the player he was last season and so with him sitting deeper we won’t notice any difference attack wise, then it comes down to Davis or Lemina making the breaks in cemtral MF and bringing the wing backs into play?

McArthy

VVD Maya Hoedt

Cedric Romeu Bertrand

Davis Lemina Boufal

Gabbi

But we won’t. Tadic will be in for Davis, Lemina will play as a second DM (at home) and we’ll play a flat back 4 with the wardrobe behind them.

Big game on Saturday. With Liverpool, Everton and Man City to come this month I would take a scrappy 1-0 over Burnley. Maya to score the winner in injury time with a deflected header.

Well @areloa-grandee I had to go to Page 2 for this weeks football thread and as Lawro has predicted a 2-1 home win i am inclined to agree with him

Oi @modboy Change Chutney ferrets name link. Ta :lou_lol:

Oi Soviet get your act together or be in the first set of purges planned by the Proles.

What is it that is troubling you PS?

Because I had to remember what his previous incantation was was and that took me a fare few minutes. Time is money old boy.

You can afford it :lou_wink_2:

Probably the wrong place to post this but 1) Didn’t think it merited it’s own thread & 2) it’ll take my mind of what promises to be a dull game when Dyche tells his guys to park the bus to grind out an away point.

Saw on BBC footie gossip that Luke Shaw is open to a move back to Saints & Bertrand off to Citeh… (Daily Mirror)

Another leaver who did well with us but failed to live up to expectations elsewhere.

Not sure I’d want him back tbf.

Discuss…

Nah leave him where he is. He sold his sole to the Devils let him rot in the reserves in the Northern hinterlands wondering what would have happened if he had stayed.

Don’t worry I laced the box of “Celebration” choccies with a powerful laxitive when he visited us Tuesday evening. He hasn’t left the bog all week. McCarthy will start…as long as Fraser hasn’t shared his treats.

What the feck has @areloa-grandee mention link got to do with the Soviet?

Are we supposed to Ice Pick the mods if they don’t get their acts together??

Cheers

Hey there @btripz I dont know how this is exactly working but i have assumed the Mod’s / Soviet / owners are all the same so I thought I would get a rise out of somebody for not carrying out a relative easy admin function. :lou_is_a_flirt: If wrong
