Only one change for us, surprising.

Quite often release clauses come into effect at a certain time, would be very surprised if we let him sign the deal in january and the release clause is there for evveryone to activate in the summer. Could see it coming into effect in 2022.

Ings has just come back from knee surgery, probably that.

We were fine, not quite at it after half-time again which unfortunately has become a pattern. We were definitely more threatening against eleven than ten, we only really opened them up once or twice after the red card. Ings just looks a touch rusty but we know he’ll get there.

It was Cedric who couldn’t give Obafemi the easiest of passes.

I assume with London imminently going into tier three the club will have to look to see which people that have been successful now can’t attend upcoming games. That’s me no longer eligible.

Van Dijk signed the biggest deal in our history i believe. Then off he went six months later.

Crook has got better the last few years. My main memory of him was saying Austin wasn’t going to sign, then the next morning he signed.

Great win, despite not playing well. As a side note, Gross’ penalty should’ve been retaken as he stopped in his run up.

Unchanged. Bench looks much stronger though .......

The conspiracy theories over a young guy settling in a new country on this thread are borderline creepy.

Unchanged

Oh, your go to when you’re wrong.

And yet United have won seven away games in a row and had a terrible recent record at Old Trafford.

Back for Brighton. Out on Sunday.

Good point against an excellent side. Long is a waste of a sub these days, was it a two year deal we gave him? Probably two years too many.

The former

Bertrand back. Redmond not in squad

I hope not as well, but for example if you're travelling from Manchester it will mean travelling through different tiers to arrive in Southampton. I travel to games from London by train so i would expect they wouldn't be too keen on that, it's all speculation though.

I would be surprised if anyone from outside the local area will be eligible to go to games for a while, which is a pain for me living in London.

Any defeat moves us below Everton on GD

I think another full back that can cover either side what would an important addition, as it stands if KWP gets injured we’re in a bit of trouble.

You know what he means, we were never once in contention that season to finish in the top four, our form from November to January cost us anything really special, bar the win over Arsenal.

The latter.

Starting. Stephens RB, Djenepo starting.
