That surprises me, until they had an injury crisis (and now 4 losses on the trot) they were knocking on the door of the top 6. Fortunately for them, they couldn’t ask for a better fixture than us right now. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rod Posted February 3, 2021 Share Posted February 3, 2021 I fancy us to win this 2-1. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Posted February 3, 2021 Share Posted February 3, 2021 That 0-9 for Southampton would have been Bruce’s worst nightmare. If they beat us away from home after that, it’ll say a helluva lot. If we win, it’s thanks to Jones or Southampton’s morale being shot to pieces. Lovely stuff. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sho Time Posted February 3, 2021 Share Posted February 3, 2021 Out of form, Ings not scored in a while. Comfortable 0-2 win, Ings with both. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Comfortable 0-2 win, Ings with both. :lol: I'm going with a Minamino start, runs the show, scores a brace and everyone saying he's an inspired loan for them tbh.

St1pe Posted February 3, 2021 Share Posted February 3, 2021 Looking at our remaining games (already) this feels like a game we really need to get 3 points from. Their injuries and suspensions have decimated them, they’re in poor form and we’ve had a bit of an upturn, albeit small. I think if we lose again here it’ll start to look more likely than not that we’ll be the third team to go down. Willock has to come in for some mobility and ASM has to start.

The Prophet Posted February 3, 2021 Share Posted February 3, 2021 Southampton still have loads of players out and will be low on confidence, so they'll be there for the taking. I imagine Bruce will be seeing this as must not lose before trips to the Bridge and OT. Score draw. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shearergol Posted February 3, 2021 Share Posted February 3, 2021 Shelvey's goal last night means that he's not getting dropped. Perhaps we'll see Hayden dropping back in for Clark so that Hendrick can retain his place? Either way, we'll get completely outplayed and lose 2-0.

Raconteur Posted February 3, 2021 Share Posted February 3, 2021 Feel like I’m swimming against the tide, but I’m actually quite confident - of course they want to bounce back from being humped, and we’re still managed by a cabbage, but nevertheless I’m tempted by the $2.87 odds Sportsbet are offering... Their injury crisis is compounded by two suspensions and I heard the kit man and the tea lady were training this week in case of selection. We have clearly turned something of a corner in our style and approach thanks to Guv’nor Jones - maybe Bruce will see the need for an active Wor Graeme and let him move the pieces, seeing as banishing him to the stands worked so well last time...

TRon Posted February 3, 2021 Share Posted February 3, 2021 Ings and Ward Prowse are almost guaranteed goals. The bookies are right to have them as favourites. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

johnny36 Posted February 3, 2021 Share Posted February 3, 2021 Alex McCarthys confidence is going to be so low after conceding 9 goals.. We should start ASM ,attack from the very start, taking shots and testing McCarthy wtih asm, willock, wilson and fraser no excuses here,. it is a must win Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think if we lose again here it’ll start to look more likely than not that we’ll be the third team to go down. Willock has to come in for some mobility and ASM has to start. This is pretty much my take on it too - it’s a must win game - it massive in fact 6 points out of 9 looks ok - you can swap the Everton win for the Palace defeat and it’s what we would have hoped for going into those games Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Prophet Posted February 3, 2021 Share Posted February 3, 2021 I wouldn't go as far to say it's mist win, but a loss doesn't bode well for Bruce. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mikky Posted February 3, 2021 Share Posted February 3, 2021 I wouldn't go as far to say it's mist win, but a loss doesn't bode well for Bruce. I disagree, this has to result in a win, just to keep that cushion - I think 35 gets you safe this year, which means another circa 3 wins from somewhere Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
nufcjb Posted February 3, 2021 Share Posted February 3, 2021 Bruce will doubtless say it is such a difficult league. They beat us earlier this season then they get tonked 9-0. So it would be ok if we lose by 10-0 too. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
KaKa Posted February 3, 2021 Share Posted February 3, 2021 We love giving away silly free kicks Ward-Prowse will punish us by either scoring himself or assisting a goal or two. Heck he might even do both. Think we'll lose ... again. Needed that Palace result. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
