Match Thread Southampton vs Everton - Preview, Match Report & MotM Poll

[Dublin blue 75]

Thanks. Staying at Times Square so doesn’t look too far. Will maybe have a look.

Well worth a trip and always has a good crowd there. As an alternative, there is also a new New Jersey toffees supporters club started this season. They meet in the Horseshoe Tavern Morristown - probably a 45 min trek by uber from midtown but. Nice bunch of blues!

Will be absolutely devastated if we don't pick up all three points here with just potentially two injuries to our best starting XI in Lewin and Patterson.

Southampton are appalling coming into this on the back of two consecutive defeats.

I think that midfield three and back line needs to carefully time their tackles around our box as there is arguably nobody better in Europe at striking a free kick than Ward Prowse.

Optimistically, going for a 2-1 to us, with another sweet Maupay strike followed by a header by one of our centre backs.

Turnmil is where NYC Blues watch..Have done for a few years..

There’s a pub in Greenwich village that was (in 2014 anyway) run by a scouse couple (one was a red one was a blue iirc). I always went there (from 2009-2014). Fecked if I can remember the name though.

They're like two different teams home & away. At home they always give us a game - they seem to get an extra boost of energy at St Mary's.

I remember two seasons ago when they ended our winning run under Ancelotti. They really ran us ragged that day and really exposed the lack of mobility in that side.

Hope there's no fake tickets and none of our fans try and storm the gates to get in

1-3 to us.

It’s amazing what 20,000 of the prawn sandwich brigade’s finest can do for a team!

I think we had a few weird injuries that time, James played but was really in no shape to be doing so

One sniff of those southern sea breezes and Maupay will be firing on all cylinders.

2-0 to us. Hurrah!

I wanted to add to my post that "that said, they are exactly the team that, despite being crap, could turn up on the day and turn us over".

That said, however, with Coady, Tarkowski and three midfielders controlling the park, I really do fancy our chances against most teams outside of the Sly 6 nowadays.

I put my hand through a glass door that day nearly dying in the process and is still the only match I’ve missed.
Tempted to do it again for good luck.

Make sure you stay away from glass doors tomorrow ?

I think we will win this one. any links please to watch

 

[yakublue]

is pickford fit?

 

[everton1953]

Difficult game in prospect. I don't agree with some pundits who list Southampton as relegation candidates. 1-1 will be likely.

 

[maccavennie]

is pickford fit?

He's not my cup of tea but I know plenty of folk who fancy him.

And yes he's available for selection tomorrow as well.

 

[Ufotone]

Feeling confident, team should win this with a clean sheet.

Coleman to score

COYB ?
