…throatily modelled by Optimus trousers…beta v1.6

TUI expecting FCM to keep it very tight. I’d agree and would expect few chances until later in the game.

And remember, it was I that predicted the 3-0 scoreline against Everton *.

I would expect at least two changes to the starting line up tonight, I think Steven Caulker will come in for Yoshida and that Oriol Romeu will come into the midfield, although Im not sure whom he will replace, it could be one of three players with Davis, Tadic & Long all at risk here.

Personally I wouldn’t sacrifice Davis. I’d play Wanyama, Davis and Romeu, and then depending on how things are going after 70 minutes, bring on some fresh, attacking legs.

* I just got it the wrong way round. That’s all.

…plainly dreamed up by Optimus trousers…beta v1.6

I am going to twist and hope we actually make the group stages. I am hoping out of all hope that we do. I think it should be comfortable this evening and ease through next week,

Crucial game for anyone that really wants us to get into Europe, and hopefully one to relish. These boys brought home the Danish championship bacon last year, so they’re going to be challenging, and certainly not going to be looking forward to getting knocked out by English middleweights.

Not going to this one. I’ve been in Southampton the last three weekends and have already lost billable hours to evening fixtures. It’s a trip too far for me, sadly.

I’ll be at work for this. I will have to keep my ipad on my desk inside it’s cover and just flip it up every few minutes to look at the live score.

That sucks. :frowning:

I’ve already finished work for the day. Mind you, I was up at six am. I shall be enjoying the game with a beer.

Beat that!*

*(there is always MLS :laughing:)

Hyped as ever. Got a feeling the atmosphere will be a little more muted than it was for Vitesse though (and we didn’t exactly raise the rooves off the stands then either).

A clean sheet and a goal or two will see me more than happy with the evening’s work.

I thought the press noises from their camp translate a little as we are going to kick the crap out of Saints

We shall see.

Btw, we’re trying out the combined thread format for the next PL game. I think it’s probably the best way to go. We get a complete record of an event. When I’ve gone to other fans forums to drink in their tears, I’ve found that the handiest.

We going to do a separate thread for tonight’s match?

I will be sat in my lounge watching dragons den, while eating Chinese take away. I am relying on you guys for score updates. 5-0. I do not think they are going to be that challenging!

Looking alright so far although their long throw specialist is a bit of a worry.

For a team from Midget land they seem quite tall.

Can’t get any decent streams running in English so enjoying listening to the Danish taters

Phew. Rather close there. Keeper had it covered though I reckon.

Used to work there.

ESB tonight. Slow inner web so no chance of posting Nuns.

Lucky smoke didn’t work & we sent Eric to the game as he ain’t seen us win here since last November

Long throw causing issues

Great save by Stickleback.

Nice effort by Romeo but we slow down the build up then they park the bus.

Meh. Got to create better chances than we have been so far. Shooting has been limp. A goal now would be nice.

Targett having a good game though.

Mwah. The buggers have got us where they want us now. This is going to be tough.

Feeling a little bit like the Everton game. All fart and no shit.
