Do yous think we will debut our 3rd kit here?

I’m taking the win

I would imagine Iwobi is getting the start here as he seems to be first man up. Trouble with him is we don't know what we can expect as he's either awful or good. Personally would go for Gordon as the lad has a great turn of pace and is comfortable out left, seems to be on the fringes but. Kenny seen almost ready so i would expect him to come in which is a worry because he's not very good defensively, I'd keep Godfrey in as he won't be bombing past James who let's face it has as much interest in tracking back as i do in Sudoku.

I think we've actually bought Doucoure because he's got the athleticism to cover when James isn't coming back and if he gives us anything else that is a bonus. He does offer more of course but I think the covering for James is his main responsibility.

Would agree that's how he's being used now.

However I think we were chasing him before we knew James was a possibility.

I guess that could be.

Either way I'm happy we have him

 

[TXRick]

3-0 us and Gordon scores

 

[Tennessee Blue Mike]

Doubt Gordon sees the bench just yet.

 

[Goat]

Doubt Gordon sees the bench just yet.

I don't see how he doesn't this game.

 

[Seathestars]

Games against Southampton always feel unpredictable to me but I’ll predict it won’t be a draw.

tough game

 

[Toffee-nerd]

Need to play better than we did in the derby if we want the 3 points. Ings will inevitably score against us so need a couple of goals. Fortunately going forward isnt a problem so think we will sneak a 2-1 but it'll be a tough game.

 

[Tramps_mate]

Do we think James could be rested for this one?

Don’t see it.

Why? The team have a week to rest.
