Match Thread Southampton v Everton (Sunday 25 October 14:00)

Delighted to see Gomes dropped.

He had a shocker in the derby - a very clear message that you can't go starting games after performances like that.

exactly how it should be as well. That gives the likes of Gylfi, Bernard and Iwobi on the fringes a boost.

Are we playing in that sickly green kit?

Didn't thiago start yesterday after all their crying?

Gomes was poor, Sigurdsson gets an opportunity. If he doesnt take it then he will be treated in the same way.

Thats how this squad works. The hysteria to Sigurdsson is pointless.

If DCL is forced off, who goes up front ?

 

[Ring master]

woah Gomes has been dropped

Funny thing is that change has had some saying they hoped it was going to happen, as Gomes had not been his best lately

 

[Brett Angell Delight]

Gylfi’s gonna have a stormer today, lads, just FYI.

 

[Brennan]

I’m hoping we line up with Allan and Doucoure sitting behind Sigurdsson, be worried if we play a flat 3 and he’s expected to do CM work.

I like gomes but it's the right decision it's all about competition gylfi and iwobi know the standard they have to attain to stay in the side

Can see why Gomes has been dropped, was awful last week and couldn’t handle the pressing Liverpool’s midfielders were implementing. Saints play a similar style as we seen at Goodison last season, game would just pass him by today. Actually feel Sigurdsson has done a lot more defensively this season for us when played than Gomes has.

James starts

What a dreadful way to lay out a team.. in numerical order.. I like my team sheets in order of position. Gk followed by defenders, midfielders then forwards it's not difficult.

 

[ToffeeTim]

No obvious choice really. Either James false 9 or Tony Gordon probably

 

[Joey66]

Gomes dropped.

Expected it TBH....he will come on in the game though......

Superior to them in every position.

Lets hope the effort is there and luck is with us.

Must win game...

No Strikers or CBs on the bench.
