Saint Garrett

Neville said we're up there with Bayern at the level of defending. With the back four and VW and Morgan. Said he was very surprised that no one came in for Morgan in the summer.

Tried to get this going quite a few times on Saturday - few people joined in but not a massive take up! Also tried the Osvaldo chant a few times and that one fell on deaf ears! Probably didn't help that he wasn't playing particularly well.

Boruc; Clyne Fonte Lovren Shaw; JWP Wanyama Morgan Lallana; Lambert Osvaldo. COYS!!

Think we're overachieving position wise, but we know we're a good side. Think the bottom half is about right if you swap Hull and Swansea. Can't imagine the table bein much different come may, and Arsenal have been terrific and chuffed for them as they have to be admired abou how they've gone about things. Great seein man Utd struggle too.

Yep he was utter class yesterday. Him and Wanyama were excellent defensively. Morgan is just a level above and could play in any team in the world. Class act.

Yep, thought we bossed the midfield yesterday. Morgan was exceptional and defensive Wanyama was also superb. (Passing Wanyama wasn't!)

John,

Time to get this started this weekend at Man Utd. I'll happily start it.... OSVALDOOO, he's gunna score today, it's just a shot away

Good read that.

Any news THEVMAN ?

I don't actually think Osvaldo or Lovren will be injured, Shaw will play IMO - Boruc is the only one that I'm really worried about as he has actually already missed a game because of the injury. Shaw was just ill (and I believe this to be because the club didn't want him going to the U21 game.

So thats Boruc, Osvaldo and Lovren....(Rumoured!)

This has been put back a week apparently on instruction of the Football League. It will now happen on 6th November....not sure why the Football League has anything to do with a team between 2 prem teams but there we go !

That doesn't sound ideal Eric! Hoping for a little bar crawl back to my mates house in prep for the night out in Manc!

It's not just Man Utd who sell them. The majority of games seem to have them sold at. I saw West Ham/Saints ones last year around the Boleyn.

Saints related?!?

Pretty sure that Wayne Thomas and Chris Perry played at the back in our 1-4, as Fonte was cup tied. Lambert scored, Lallana probably played if he wasn't injured. Sure the teams must be on te Internet somewhere. Guys talking ********.

He seemed to be the player he was at Chelsea last night rather than the one who has been fantastic for Liverpool. He played like he was the only one on the pitch, just wanted to shoot all the time, and only had one foot. He's still young and he's clearly a very talented player, but he's been much more of a team player for Liverpool than he ever was at Chelsea. Hopefully he pushes on though, and he is in form for the World Cup in the summer. Don't get me started on Welbeck though

Supposed friendlies against Germany and Argentina I read somewhere last night...

Unless he's already injured!!

In the evening we will probably just go to a variety of pubs/bars. I was mainly wanting to know where Saints fans were heading before the game. I'm sure we used to get 'main' pubs to aim for in the lower leagues - was always a good crack. Our support seem to be a lot more diverse now - i guess that's probably as we're going to more big cities people have more choice. Would rather not spend the whole time before the game in a pub full of Man Utd fans so if it will be much better heading into the city, then that's what we'll do - it's not that far!

Sold out pal. Plus this weekend is going to cost enough! I did look at it a few weeks ago before it sold out but baulked at the price...

Because from where we're staying it's just about walking distance to the ground - and we'll end up in the centre in the evening. Open to suggestions...Sour Mash you're normally ITK about pubs !

Yeah it will be superb mate, I baulked at the price though! Tickets were still available when I looked about a month ago.
