So has Paul Merson. May as well write this one off.

Oh ffs. He's done that on purpose, hasn't he?

 

[KaiserEFC]

I’m not sure I’ve ever seen Lawro put us down for a win. Shows you just how bad Southampton are really

It would imagine it will be Holgate and Keane as he was the one who came on last week.

Call for an ambulance, he must be having a seizure or something.

He also said Liverpool will draw, maybe call for a priest to give him his last rites....

Fair point, perhaps though Zouma for Keane?

Thought Keane was outstanding. Would destroy him completely to drop him (ive been a huge critic of his fwiw). Would have holgate drop out and have zouma in.

I thought Holgate was still carrying a minor injury - may not last a whole game if started.

I suppose you could say that about not lasting the game with all the other options too.

That's a fair point - I think someone on here was talking recently about coaches rarely choosing to sub centre backs unless there's an injury or something. Its a position that doesn't do well with change mid game. That said I'm not sure what point I'm making other than we will have to muddle through this game with what cover we have as the new lads aren't ready and we have injuries and suspensions to boot.
Given last week it seems its really the only question in the line up.

I've gone for us as my pick in the Last Man Standing competition i run. I think like 40 of 52 went for Man City. Maybe I'll put a bet on also, so I'll be triple annoyed when we fail to win.

Is the presser on soon?

Everton and Optimism. Oh dear. I wonder about the O in NSNO, and whether our founding father had a slip. But hope springs eternal. 2-1.

so keane is certain to start, dont see why holgate should lose his place.
