In the past I've used http://www.usagoals.com with mixed results. I usually get to watch the game but also get a bunch of trojan viruses for good measure. Does anyone have any other fairly dependable streams that don't require money or VPN?

Good point. I dont imagine they would enforce ID checks that include proof of residency. They would have to notify that intention as not many people would be able to prove that on demand.
-
Is it correct that Saints will not be selling tickets for the Swansea game? If so, I guess we just buy tickets and sit with the Swansea fans, given that they are on general sale.

Betting companies wouldnt pay 7 million a season to sponsor a shirt if it didn't encourage new customers. So if we can agree on that, we just need to agree that gambling is something that some people do compulsively. Then join the dots.

Depression....? Anxiety...? Suicide....that one seems pretty bad for your health?

This is what I cant find the answer too either. 'Biggest deal ever'sounds good but what is the detail? Also its suggested this strengthens our ability to buy....but why does it? That might sound silly question but if we are committed to balancing the books ans just recently took a 75 million loan...we are still 50ish million in debt...so we still need to sell before we can buy? Or I'm wrong...happy to be wrong just want to know the reality, not the flashy strapline.

I like 4-2-2-2 but if we need a plan B then this 4-2-3-1 is what I would suggest. I like Armstrong as a man, but Valery delivery, ability to beat a player and cover for KWP overlapping means I would like to see him play on the right. Diallo clearly has some skills but isn't as tough as Romeo so I'd like to see him play as a 10. The weak area is on the left Bertrand is no longer good enough going forward (highlighted by much of our good play coming from the right via KWP) and we are struggling for a conistent left side number 10 (which further hinders Bertrand ability to get forward safely). Walcott is not consistent either, but he is best option ina world where Redmond d plays 1 good game in 5. ---------------McCarthy----------------- KWP------Bednerek-----Vestergaard---Bertrand --------------Romeo------JWP------------- Valery--------------Diallo--------------Walcott ---------------------Ings---------------------

As of tomorrow, he'll be third choice at Utd
-
Ah...ok thanks for clarifying.
-
Surely if we are trying to get it done in next 24 hours it will be an international player. The domestic market still has another 10 days to run so wouldnt be rushing to get a theo walcott or nelson over the line by tomorrow.

Suggests vestergard number 4 is contractual? Otherwise would of gone to a regular starter?
-
I think Ralph wants to play 3-5-2 where possible with Danso on the left the 3 and an attacking player that can get back and provide cover on the left of the 5. This is in contrast to the right side where valery or Cedric are more defensive minded but play on the right of the 5. Ideally, Bertie is an option for the left side but so in djenepo, so is bouf, so is Cedric, so is armstrong, so is redmond. I think Bertie perhaps doesnt like being an option but the reality is bertie has not been an attacking force since he got injured about 2 seasons ago and Ralph wants someone like djenepo to learn the defensive side of the game.

Has anyone found any streams for tonight? My usual go to place is only showing the game on sky.

Good match. Gunn - Solid and saved what he should have saved. Distribution could be better at times but he gives the defence confidence. Valery - He isn't doing much wrong or right in first 3 games. Against Liverpool he looked hesitant and I wondered whether Cedric might get the nod. Would like to see him pushing forward more, particularly when we play 5 at the back (which we didn't today). Bednarek - Has picked up where he left off last season. Very stable. A good player and another good performance. Vestergaard - Looks more solid this season. Great at blocking shots (with the exception of Mane's). Danso - Looked out of position...which he was but he didn't make any big mistakes and covered well in what could have been a tough debut. Going down to 10 men helped him as it forced brighton to play more centrally. Romeu - For me he is the weak link in our side. Yes he makes Big tackles but he is also likely to get booked every game and gets caught out of position often. Passing can also be suspect. If we had another CDM then having Romeu in the squad would be great, but we dont and that is a concern. Would like to see Danso play CDM. Hojberg - Looked solid. Positive. Captains display and did well to talk to Bouffel abojut the free kick towards the end and convince him to let JWP take it (even if JWP quiffed it). JWP - Looked ok. Delivery from corners was good...blah blah blah REdmond - Best game so far this season. Very confident and attacked the back four really well. Adams - Was marked tightly and didn't really get much of a chance. I'd rest him next game. Ings - Very positive first half but faded a bit. A classy player though and has good pace and always looks likely to score. Djenepo - Great positive introduction. He has big skills and big pace and will be a great player off the bench. Bouffel - Similar to Djenepo. Great player off the bench and i think he probably deserves a start soon.

Lwtv and similar all confuse me. Facebook and Twitter pages and then sending DMs. I have been using usavoals.com for 4 years. I dont like it because it comes with a bunch of nasty adverts nd even potential viruses but I know at 3pm I can get a stream within a couple of mins and sometimes it stays for 90 mins...sometimes I have to flick about between channels. Would like something as easy but more stable or with less as etc...but I dont see fire stick as the answer
-
Agree it was correctly ruled offside....but...stockley park brief is to get involved when the referee or assistant referee has made a clear error. Neither of the city goals were clear errors and shouldnt of been checked in my opinion.
-
Phew. Was important for collectviness. Will give us funds to buy someone defensive if there is time.
-
We need to look after our best players. Yes we are paying him more money now but the real benefit to us is that if Redmond has a good season and a bigger club wants to buy him, he will command a bigger transfer fee because he had a longer contract than if we had not done what we kust did. We did the same with vin Dijk and that is why we got 80ish million for him. Had he not just signed a new a. Extent sion we would have got significantly less money. So the club are looking after the player but also the future of the club.
-
It looks like he will vary between 3-4-3 and 4-2-2 depending on opposition and injuries/form. Its good for us to have two options I think. We clearly need a top quality Centre back and ideally a top quality CDM (or we gotta give Lemina a slap and convince him to do a job for us as he is top quality when focussed). So...given that we dont have either of these I think we need to be playing it safe and having 5 at the back when defending. It will be desperate but we can then go and outscore teams to win. We have somewhere between 4 and 6 top quality forwards. We have good full backs. I dont think we will go down and if we can get a couple of quality defensive minded players and get rid of dead wood then we could challenge top half.
-
Agreed. We dont have much quality in CB positions but we at leasr gave some. We are really short of CDM players that can tackle. I would prefer Romeu to be backup fo 1 or 2 decent CDMs. It is such a shane Lemina isnt up for it.
-
If we assume that we will play between 2 and 4 proper attacking players (JWP doesnt count as this) and first choice will be 2 or 3 (if fit) from Ings, Adams and Redmond will always start as things stand today. So we can afford to have an additional 2 proper attacking players on the bench from.this group: Mo Djenepo Boufel long Austin Obafemi Sims Armstrong 2 from 8. We know we want Austing gone so thats 7. Which 2 from the 7 though? I guess you could stretch it to 3 places but that is still 4 players missing out. So inthink its very feasible that we will sell or loan at least 2 more players in addition to Austin. I am mot convinced Boufel will be one of them to leave. It will be easier to sell or loan sims and obafemi due to wage demands.
-
Thanks. I would have thought he would be Mo but he has already been signed by Liverpool so it makes sense to be clear we have another player that liverpool havnt signed yet.
-
Noob question. Who is Moi?
-
He is top class when focussed. Would have been a good replacemrnt for pogba or play behind pogba at utd. Shame he isnt focussed on playing for us as he has got all the trchnicsl skills to be world class

Wow. I almost took the anove reppy seriously for a second. Then i remembered it was 2019.
