Big River Posted April 29, 2023 Share Posted April 29, 2023 I must be the only person in the world not convinced by Lavia, at all. he’s been pony every time I’ve seen him. I know he’s young etc etc. will be watching him closely tomorrow, let’s see how he gets on against a proper midfield. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Fountain Posted April 29, 2023 Share Posted April 29, 2023 Southampton at home in 1985 was the first time I sat at a match. My mates uncle had seats in the East Stand and was on holiday. Shilton was in goal for Saints and he had a blinder despite that we won 2-1. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Collage Posted April 29, 2023 Share Posted April 29, 2023 This should be fun. I’d be tempted to start both Isak and Wilson. 8-0 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Likelylad Posted April 29, 2023 Share Posted April 29, 2023 Such a potential banana skin this man. Hoping for a solid 2-0 with goals either side of HT. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bimpy474 Posted April 29, 2023 Share Posted April 29, 2023 (edited) Be professional, don't under estimate them, doesn't matter how bad they've been, giving it ego will bite us on the arse. Edited April 29, 2023 by Bimpy474 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
AJ9 Posted April 29, 2023 Share Posted April 29, 2023 I would be gobsmacked if Eddie hasn’t got these in the right mindset for this. The best sides in the league struggle to live with us at the moment, can’t see anyone in this team allowing the levels to drop. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
54 Posted April 29, 2023 Share Posted April 29, 2023 It's funny how people are so worried about this game, as personally I can't remember a Premier League game where I've ever been this unworried about an opposition, and been supremely confident of a win, it feels weird honestly. Obviously that could just be hubris talking, but Southampton have nothing, and are clearly the worst team in the league, we've already beat them three times this season, they essentially downed tools at home to Bournemouth and they're already basically relegated. So long as the players aren't complacent, we have nothing to worry about imo. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Skeletor Posted April 29, 2023 Share Posted April 29, 2023 They can't come and low block us as they have to win. There should be a lot of space for us to exploit. Hopefully everyone's still in a goal scoring mood. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Infatuation Junkie Posted April 29, 2023 Share Posted April 29, 2023 I don’t have a single cell of doubt about this game anywhere in my body. More chance of us missing CL next season than there is us losing this. Everton away was Everton’s cup final. These can play out their skins and will be wasting 90min of energy. They need to accept this game as a defeat and preserve fitness for a game with more chance of winning Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Coffee_Johnny Posted April 29, 2023 Share Posted April 29, 2023 Goals from Botman and Gordon (and Schar if I’m being greedy) would cap a wonderful week’s football. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm expecting it a win but that's a bit bold given what happened at villa. I understand it's the exception not the rule this season like, however the levels were dropped massively that day.

Andy84 Posted April 29, 2023 Share Posted April 29, 2023 The confidence I have is coming from the fact we are absolutely ruthless in front of goal at the minute. We’ll create chances and we will score imo, simple as that really Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Smal Posted April 29, 2023 Share Posted April 29, 2023 Do we know if Longstaff's ok after going off the other night? If he's out I'd be tempted to start Wilson and Isak. Really get at them from the off. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ikon Posted April 29, 2023 Share Posted April 29, 2023 Trippier shouting at Longstafff (?) during the game against Everton Do we know what that was about? Happened after the penalty shout when elf ear Tark went in. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
David Edgar Posted April 29, 2023 Share Posted April 29, 2023 It looked like Trippier didn't think Longstaff could continue playing to a high enough standard with the knock. Trippier was shouting at Longstaff to go off, I think. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Klaus Posted April 29, 2023 Share Posted April 29, 2023 Historically this would have been match we would fuck up. Did we not give Derby 6 points one season? I can't see Eddie allowing that to happen. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
gbandit Posted April 29, 2023 Share Posted April 29, 2023 Yeah, we have Derby six points, was it 06/07? Remember watching the home game in a pub in Edinburgh and questioning how much worse things would get for us as a club. Turns out it was a lot Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Games like that happen to every team at some point, including Man City. We’re at home and they are rock bottom of the league for a reason. Eddie won’t be complacent and nor will the lads. So us fans can be confident. Edited April 29, 2023 by LV Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cort Posted April 29, 2023 Share Posted April 29, 2023 Got a late equaliser in the return game, mind. Load of bollocks in any case. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
