How about...? --------------- Steklenberg ----------------- Cedric ---- Fonte ----- Caulker --- Martina ----------------- Romeu --------------------- ---------- Juanmi ------- JWP -------------- ---- Mane ------- Pelle --------- JRod ------ Subs: Gazza, Targett, Yoshida, Wanyama, Reed, Davis, Long

Season going to nutjob plan so far. PUP!

Fine lines. If Mane's shot goes in at 0-0 then Everton's heads could have dropped, our confidence sparked, and gone on to win the game. Yes, our performance was poor overall but but its early days so not going to jump on the "we're doomed" bandwagon quote yet. One positive, Romeu looks like he'll fit it well alongside Wanyama. Should have started in hindsight. We march on.

Same number of points at this stage last season. #meltdown

90 minute advert on national TV to boost shirt sales?

10/10

Unlucky Pelle!

Or, for the more pragmatic and rational amongst us, how about we wait until Christmas before losing our rag? Just a wacky idea

Good start by Romeu

Will be interesting to see how many crutches Koeman comes out with after half time and which player's arse one of them ends up in

They probably wouldn't have known, to be fair. Saints only announced it last night. But, yep, Everton's protest will unfortunately overshadow proceedings somewhat and not sure why they have chosen an away game. Probably because its live on TV thinking about it...

Seeing as Pompey bought their last trophy (with money they didn't have), perhaps they'll have a whip round to buy one of these too... http://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/0/football/33936146

I expect the restriction can be overridden by the ticket office for phone or in-person bookings on a discretionary basis

I don't know why but I've got a feeling Jaunmi will start this one. I don't have a very good success rate with my hunches though...
