Totton Saint

Good point

Diallo and Theo playing out of position. I have my misgivings. Let's hope they are unfounded

if any one should be dropped it is Walcott. His miss placed pass to Adams in last game was appalling

If Valery plays where do we fit OR, JWP and Diallio in?

That's my opinion too, but maybe another sub not Walcott

Surprised no discussion re. Redmond vs. Walcott being picked

Spot on!!

Yes - I saw it was an 8:15 start after I had posted. My point is the same though

Let's hope the naysayers have to eat their words at 9:50 tonight.

Not very lady like language, but I do agree with your sentiments. My philosophy is If one cannot find a good word to say, keep quiet.

Valery was good enough lat season and one before that to be picked

At least we are at home

JWP kept Sala quiet at LB vs Crystal Plalace

Thanks for your support Charlie

OR stepped up when the Dane went to Spurs and excelled and more than plugged the gap after playing second string for so long. I do not think he should be rewarded by being dropped again

Have people forgotten he scored a hat trick for England? Wasn't it against Germany?

Could play both at some stage and give JWP a rest for a game or two if we have good cup run, especially if Vest is back.

Why does Ralph keep bringing Long on. Does he enjoy seeing him suffer and being embarased? It is so unkind.

If we win the FA cup that means we will be in the Europa cup

A full strength team besides Romeo and Diallo is no slouch

This must contract issue be so unsettling for the rest of the squad. I would say more but I am slow at typing.

What level was he at playing for the club we bought Mane from

Watch this space but be careful what you wish for

I am sick of players being rescued from obscurity or having their careers revitalised by us only to use us a a stepping stone. Tear up his contract offer and let him sweat

The Telegraph sports page wrote a bigger piece about Ings wanting to go to a Champions League team than their report of the game. Might stop buying the paper. With a good tail wind we could be the very team Ings wants.
