Would be too harsh on McCarthy dropping him - he's been brilliant since he's come in, and until he makes any mistakes, he shouldn't be dropped. Gunn is long term and will hopefully stick with us for a few seasons.

Yup - been coming for a while... Will be interesting to see how long we wait this time. Whether we've learnt from our mistakes, or believe Hughes will turn it around. If we don't beat either of Newcastle or Watford then he surely has to go, but can see another "Everton" like result from last year where he's almost gone then pulls a result out the bag which buys him a few more months.

Stephens? Seems to have a bit of an edgy side to him.

He'll be off in Jan, probably permanently, and I'd take him, but again think he'll want to go somewhere better than us unfortunately.

Would 100% take Christiensen - very good player. Happily take Loftus Cheek and Moses too...! Don't think he'd come here though...

Would take Wanyama back in a heartbeat

Looked like more than 27K, was surprised to hear there were over 5K empty seats....

And winning those 6, seems unlikely given the fact we've only won 6 in the last 12 months.... Which seems unlikely given the fact we've won 6 in 12 months...

Might as well just write off the games against the top teams given the fact we don't even try against them...Given we're currently on 5 points...these results will leave us with 15 points come the new year, and that assume's we'll beat both Newcastle and Watford at home which is hugely unlikely given we've won 1 game at St Mary's all 2018.... At what point do we pull the plug on Hughes? If we beat Newcastle and Watford he'll rightly stay, but if we have another poor Dec which we always have then it will be a big decision before the transfer window...you can't help but feel that its going to be between 5 of us, Cardiff, Huddersfield, Newcastle us and Fulham for the 3 relegation positions... EPL 20-10-2018 Bournemouth (A) - 0 Points - They'll tear our defence to bits EPL 27-10-2018 Newcastle United (H) - 3 Points - MUST WIN EPL 04-11-2018 Manchester City (A) - 0 Points - No chance EPL 10-11-2018 Watford (H) - 3 Points - MUST WIN EPL 24-11-2018 Fulham (A) - 1 Points - MUST NOT LOSE EPL 01-12-2018 Manchester United (H) - 0 Points - No chance EPL 05-12-2018 Tottenham (A) - 0 Points - No chance EPL 08-12-2018 Cardiff (A) - 1 Points - MUST NOT LOSE EPL 15-12-2018 Arsenal (H) - 0 Points - No chance EPL 22-12-2018 Huddersfield (A) - 1 Points - MUST NOT LOSE EPL 26-12-2018 West Ham (H) - 1 Points - Might nick a point EPL 29-12-2018 Manchester City (H) - 0 Points - No chance

McCarthy Cedric Bednarek Vestergaard Yoshida Bertrand Lemina Romeu Hojbjerg Redmond Ings

Yoshida!!!

Pointless bloke so far got to say. Doesn't say anything, no noticeable difference apart from a few bits which seem to be for his personal gain... #GaoOut #ReedOut #KrugerOut #HughesOut #HoedtOut

I'd probably go something like.... --------------------------Gunn--------------------------- Cedric---Bednarek---Vestergaard---Yoshida---Targett --------------Romeu------------Hojbjerg--------------- JWP--------------------------------------------Redmond -----------------------Gallagher-------------------------

Yup agree would be our best lineup...for some reason Armstrong and Yoshida seem to be out of favour...

Im not his biggest fan but would absolutely take him right now, but no chance we'd pay his wages.

Sounds delightful.

Websites seem to mention the "Bluebrick", no idea what its like.

WOuldnt be surprised to see Austin and Gabbi moved on in Jan. Austin would be a decent signing for a championship club.

Could probably sign Clyne back, or Fredericks from Fulham, both are better than Cedric - or potentially a random unknown RB from Europe somewhere who I've never heard of. Cedric isn't good enough.

Cos he's dreadful.

http://sportwitness.co.uk/defender-says-got-move-southampton-replace-cedric-soares/ Shame he didnt go.

Got free train tickets via London - Have checked via Clapham and it's quicker - cheers.

Because of sky games / Liverpool at home this week, they couldn't have it the same night as that.

Ah, it's waterloo - I'm going from Basingstoke - seems to take not far off 2 hours to get to Euston from Basingstoke for some reason.
