Saints away next!.. Early thoughts..

Recommended Posts

Posted

We're still at a level when an away draw anywhere in this league is still a decent result for us.

 

Southampton are a level above the lesser sides in this division so I'll be happy with anything but a loss. It's not beyond us to win there but Southampton will be disappointed if they don't beat us. I think we'll lose by a one goal margin but this team continues to surprise so who knows?

Otherwise known as not title contenders.

I think Schlupp and Mahrez will be on the bench for this, and I think it's time Ulloa got a start.

I think the team will be:

Kasper

Simpson - Huth - Morgan - Fuchs

Albrighton - DD - Kante - Dyer

Vardy - Ulloa

Just about to set off from sunny Newquay for this one, whatever team Ranieri puts out it will be entertaining.....

Up the City.....

Looking forward to this, should be a good game against a side who we may now legitimately consider a rival despite them finishing 7th last season. They had a dodgy start but have had good wins over Swansea and Chelsea lately and only narrowly lost out to Man Utd.

Expecting a tough game against one of the division's better teams but a good performance here, even if we lose, will solidify our claims to being a decent mid table side this year.

I'd go for

RDL

Huth

Morgan

Fuchs

Mahrez

Kante

Drinkwater

Schlupp

Okazaki

Vardy

I can see us surrendering possession almost entirely so we'll want maximum pace on the break and are less likely to be getting so many crosses in, hence Albrighton and Ulloa stay in the bench but can come on if we need to change things up.

3-5-2 was essential last spring in keeping them out. They had so much possession and their full backs wanted to get forward all the time. Worrying about albrighton and Jeff kept them on the back foot a bit. can definitely see Claudio sticking with the Norwich line up. Simpson and Fuchs a more defensively minded pairing although I think with them having the ball for 65% +, they will pick ways around two banks of 4. Relying on the manager to get this right tactically or it could be very difficult come 5 'o clock.

Kasper

Benny

Morgan

Huth

Fuchs

Albrighton

Kante

Drinks

Schlupp

Okazaki

Vardy

4 big lads at the back. Pelle will attach himself to Schlupp, Simpson or RDL if either play full back. Fuchs looked good against Norwich and I'd like to see Benny given a start.

Think we'll probably be beaten today. Just hope Foxestalk doesn't go into meltdown if we do.

If we can start well we'll have a chance but just don't trust us at the back still

A point would be a fantastic result. However this could be Another Arsenal, I do fear for us when we come up against competent attacking teams, we simply can't defend and I doubt out "we will score more than you" will help today.

I would like to see a clean sheet, just to prove we can defend....a little.

Tough away game.

 

Definitely a game for Ulloa today.

I would say this has been one of the better I've been on too
