Southampton (A) - Wed 1 Dec

[Vardinio'sCat]

Also, we need to protect all of our big guns at this time, not just run them into the ground like previous seasons.

THIS is the BR master plan. Instead of screwing up the season at the end, he decides to screw it up at the start. Genius. So now we go on an unbeaten run until the end of the season, win everything and confuse everyone. The man is, quite simply, brilliant.

Southampton are an odd bunch. Sometimes they look alright, other times they look complete doggo. 
 

Confident we will win this one, I think we will go on a bit of a run now.

I'm not quite convinced we've turned a corner yet, I really hope we have though.

The team coach leaving St Mary's tomorrow night.

It’s the 93rd minute, Luke Thomas and evans have gone off injured. We’ve reverted to a back 5 after getting dominated by Nathan Redmond. We counter quickly and win a corner. Bertrand whips in a beauty and vestergarde jumps 12 ft in the air to head home.  
 

limbs, limbs, limbs 

Even though we're 3 down?

Bertrand will be hiding in the back like the big fvcking monster at the end of 'Big trouble in little China'.

Yeah but do you know what ol' Brendan Rodgers always says at a time like this? Ol' Bren always says..."What the Hell?".

Would bite your hand off for 0-1.

Hope Brendan doesn't play Bertrand or Vestergaard, it will show that their once first team players are just squad fillers for us. It may have the psychological effect on the Southampton players that our players are better than them thus they are ready to except a battering by us.

Love a midweek game so much more than a weekend game.  

[Ric Flair]

I'd be delighted if Bertrand and Vestergaard never made an appearance for us again, abominations.

No way. Saturday at 3pm is the only time for football.

I'm with you there, Regular Saturday at 3pm is missed by me these days, with a very occasional night match late in the season now and again

Already shitting myself about the ward prowse corners.

...a mid week game under the floodlights is a special occasion, it is so different it is hard to adequately described to someone!!!

  My very first live game was a mid week game, it was as if you had gone to the theatre, with the spotlights on and the stage is lit in all areas and you then take your seat, ready for the performance.

Definitely agree re Bertrand. But, although I know this sounds mad, I still think Vesty is a potential cult hero.

No you are mad when you substitute Vesty for Vardy and erase the word potential 😏

[don_danbury]

Not very confident. draw or a 2 -1 loss.

Armstrong is the sort of forward we really struggle against and actually, Adams too. 

They are going to cause trouble to our unstable defence. We need Evans fit for this one.

There are clearly different ways of spelling the word cult.
