3-1 to Leeds with Branthwaite and Myko injured. Our defence is going to be shocking and they’ll be right up for it being their first game back in the PL
It’s conditioning. Southampton have had 2 managers in recent times that won 1 Prem match each. Both against Everton.
Look at someone like Daniel Jebbison. Young striker we were strongly linked with several times. Has only ever scored 2 goals...
Tailor made for beto this game....

Unless something happens tonight, it is unlikely we will have new additions in time for leeds which is disappointing...we seem to take about 2 to 3 weeks per signings right now. So I guess with the time left, and bearing in mind that closer and...
