Hollyfox Posted 13 April 2021 Share Posted 13 April 2021 If they play Vestergaad, which they will, you simply have to play Vardy. He might not be in the best of form but he's our greatest ever and deserves to play in a game like this. Utter madness to think otherwise Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pliskin Posted 13 April 2021 Share Posted 13 April 2021 Whoever plays just put some effort in. Finding it hard to get up for this game, call me a miserable bastard, but I just don’t have any faith these lads can produce when it matters. Ings hat-trick incoming.

I can perhaps see some logic in Maddison playing, but why the other two? It’s a very long time since either of them had a decent game for us, and I don’t think being dropped against West Ham is suddenly going to make them better players.

fuchsntf Posted 13 April 2021 Share Posted 13 April 2021 2 hours ago, WigstonWanderer said: Without Vardy we’ve got very little pace up front, particularly with Barnes out as well. Whatever form he’s in at present he still scares defenders and so makes space for others. Vardy opens up the Front line & various channels, that helps Nacho's runs.. They are our best Front-line....... Vardy even Running on low gas, still upset the Oppo's B.line & often gets behind them... Just my opinion but we Need Maddison to feed them, Or Run into that Space they Open up.... If reasonably match fit & prepared after his Turkish-covid-adventure, Soyuncu plays.. So that Leaves a Choice of 2 from 3...Ricardo/ Albrighton / Castagna.. We will then see Perez, One of the above & Praet, on the Bench... For Coming off the Bench I suppose Albrighton is the only super-sub we have who can change things, if he doesn't start..!! I Don't know how many subs...but I would like to see a few Youngsters in the mix... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kasper Castagne Soyuncu Evans Thomas Ricardo Tielemens Ndidi Maddison Albrighton Nacho If we are losing with 30 to go, go 4-4-2 and bring Vardy on with Nacho. No way on earth does Vardy not start in a game like this, absolutely clueless to even suggest an 11 without him unless he’s injured or suspended.

Gerard Posted 14 April 2021 Share Posted 14 April 2021 Has to be 3-4-1-2 if for the only reason it gets our best players on the pitch. Take Barnes and Maddison out the side and we have bottom half options for the attacking midfielders. Best to just play our third CB, Iheanacho and do away with the wide attacking midfielders as they aren't good enough. Next season we need to realign the squad, we have great depth in FB & CB. Soumare would be great to compliment Ndidi and Tielemans. We could do with two players to compliment Barnes and Maddison so we have four quality options for three positions behind the striker. Thauvin on a free and maybe Faivre. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fuchsntf Posted 14 April 2021 Share Posted 14 April 2021 (edited) I want this season to end with Southampton just being Sick of playing Leicester..... They have 2 chances to Stop our season dead.... OR better said we playing them twice & beating them twice, coming out dominant & arrogant would just be the right wind in the sails, that we need to help us complete a successful season. We have potentially 9 games left in our season 2 against the Saints.....!! And then we need them to beat our rivals in the PL Run in... The Saints seem to be the Key team that can Ruin a few Teams EOS chase.. Edited 14 April 2021 by fuchsntf Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ok drop then, not necessarily this game but it can't be against the rules to drop any player due to poor form. Which is why I said 'rest'. You can't say that he's not been a bit of a passenger lately. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
foxfanazer Posted 14 April 2021 Share Posted 14 April 2021 I'm well up for this but just don't trust certain players and the manager to not balls it up. Really will be a travesty if we lose it 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wasyls Pec Deck Posted 14 April 2021 Share Posted 14 April 2021 There’s lots in the media about Southampton squad being stale, and players moving on etc (well The Athletic). My point is they are not in the best shape either, are FAR MORE INCONSISTENT than us and are not far off flirting with relegation. If you can’t motivate yourself for an FA Cup Semi Final then there is a major problem. If we are up for it I can’t see us losing because we have too much qualiteeeee.
